PBF wont get credit for the Hatton, JMM, SSM wins...

[Uturn]

I excuse the JMM win because he was out of his depth moving up. Hatton & SSM are good wins, i cant take that away from him. Floyd is a legit fighter without any question, if you say otherwise you are a biased fanboy. SSM is a very good win.

He will get credit for beating Pac make no mistake about that, even though he didnt for hatton and JMM wins. It is not a lose lose situation considering the pandemonium in trying to arrange this fight. But if he does beat Pac, then maybe stepping up is only option left to him.

IF, and its a big IF, he beats Pac, you could say all would be forgiven as regards his Hatton and JMM performances and they would be put into perspective.
If he beat Pac very well, his critics would say, even if PBF didnt have home advantage and it was at 140 he would still have beaten Hatton. But at this minute not everyone is entirely convinced of it.

I've heard that before. In the end, doesn't really matter to me. I hold his win over Oscar as a great win, his win over Mosley and Hatton as good wins. It's no coincidence that before Mosley stepped in the ring with Mayweather he had destroyed Margarito, then looked average against Mayweather. It's no coincidence that Oscar destroyed Mayorga, then looked good (actually) but was still handily beaten by Mayweather. This goes to show that Mayweather is at a different skill level. Also his win over Hatton was a good win, Hatton gave a good account of himself against Collazo who most had beating the current WBC champ, Berto.

At the end of the day, Mayweather has a solid WW resume. Of course it could have been much better, but it's solid nontheless.

If he won't get credit for JMM and SSM, on what basis was Floyd voted ESPN Fighter of the Year? (fan voting)
On what basis was he voted Yahoo! Sports #1 p4p and Ring Magazine #2 p4p? (media voting)

Sounds like both the media and fans respected those wins.

It shows PBF has more fans than people believe. He has gotten credit for beating Hatton. But it is easy for his critics to discredit PBF for those wins, because he gave ammunition for it.

But he wont get more credit for beating Hatton than Pac did.

hatton was a decent win at best, would have been a good win had he fought him at his natural weight

jmm was a joke

mosley was coming off a near 2 year lay off and 39. joke of a match up, but i suppose *****s need something to hang on to

uhhh because Hatton was a 140lb fighter, fighting away from home in Floyd's back yard with a crooked yank ref.

Floyd deserves and gets no credit for any of those three wins, the young hungry Floyd was the one who took risks and didn't have the cards all stacked in his favour. The older, spoilt loud-mouth Mayweather deserves nothing but a kick up the ass for being a coward.

Bwahaha... fan voting doesn't mean ****. They're manipulated by the media hype machine that they've built around Floyd to take the stink off his fights.


"Fans" also voted for Bush and *****.

Most people are just dumb fucks, lol...

[pistol whip]

Hatton was a quality win, Shane was a quality win, but JMM was just a giant ***ing joke!

so hatton gets no credit for any of his wins in england then right??since those fighters were fighting away from home with a crooked ref that allowed hatton to wrestle all damn night..and by your logic if floyd gets no credit for the shane fight..hatton getsno credit for his best with the tzu fight
