    Is Floyd Mayweather The Most Hated Man Ever In Boxing?

    Ali was a hated man. Tyson was a hated man. I feel Floyd gets a bad rap because he doesn't say what people want him to say. Like when he says that he is the best of all time. I don't understand whats wrong with that. He put in alot of hard work to get to the top. You have to respect his confidence. You don't have to agree with it. He said tonight on 24/7 that there will be a stick up on may 1st. That he is stealing money and it's like a bank robbery. All he is saying is that beating these so called great champions is easy money. Easy work. Read in between the lines people. He feels like may 1st is just another easy pay day because Mosley is just not on his level.

    No one cares.

    Floyd brings it upon himself and he likes being hated on.

    So why do you care?

      He doesn't come close to the hate Jack Johnson received. No boxer does.

                  If you are referring to their active fighting days, the most hated man would be Muhammad Ali. Ali talked more trash and did it better than Mayweather and was among the most hated men in America in his heyday. He became popular after he retired. I agree with you that there is nothing wrong with saying you are the best and you are going to beat your opponent easily. Lucian Bute said the same thing tonight. If you don't believe that, you should not get in the ring.
