Why are you a fan of Floyd Mayweather?

[starkiller]

probably they bet on him and won everytime lol lol lol, hahahahahaha

Not a hard thing to do, since he has been favored in every single one of his handpicked fights except against Corrales which he deserves all the credit in the world. But he deserves 0 credit as of lately with avoiding the top fighters at 147 like Cotto, Margarito, Williams. Floyd always goes on Vacation when the division picks up!

[KILLA RIGHT]

The guy Is brilliant inside the ring.but one Thing I get a huge kick off of is people who really hate him.I mean there's people who spend 90% of there time on here hating him.it's classic seeing people get all mad about Floyd.yet they still pay for the ppv or watch the guy. I mean how can you not appreciate what he did to Mosley.the guy hit Floyd once and people make it such a big deal yet he won 11 to 1. He's the best inside fighter in the game yet he's a runner? Jus cause u don't get hit?

Yeah,, he had all the chances in the world to put him away for good too.

floyd has skills that pay him the big bills.

one of the greatest defensive boxers ever and he can really move on the dance floor.

i wish floyd can teach me his moves.

but if i am standing too close to floyd like that girl is, i might get a boner, no ****. my heroes and dancing are the two things that make my lil **** hard:

[check hook]

It can only be because of his technical abilities right?

Seriously how can anybody be a ****ing fan? MOST of his fights are boring as **** and he's more entertaining outside the ring than inside...SMH

Floyd's fights are not boring......it just seems that way because you dislike his persona and he tends to dominate his opponents---> making the fights boring for you as he doesn't get hit often.

Mayweather has been in plenty of entertaining fights:

- Hernandez
- Corrales
- Ndou
- Corley
- Gatti
- Judah
- Hatton
- SSM

All of these fights were HIGHLY entertaining for various reasons.

Now to answer your original question.


Why am i a fan of Floyd Mayweather??

- His technical abilities. Most fighters today are great offensively, but how many have an even "servicable" defence?? Practically none. Defensive wizardry in boxing is becoming a lost artform. Most of today's guys wouldn't stand a chance against many of their predecessors because they have **** defence.

- His dominance has been challenged only once in a long career and he gave that fighter an immediate rematch. Most fighters don't do that. Think Manny and JMM. How long before JMM got his rematch?? With that exception he has dominated every fighter he has fought. In my estimation not one fighter with the exception of Castillo has taken more than 4 or 5 rds. ---> and don't bring up the ODLH fight, it wasn't close.

- He speaks his mind and has built his persona and superstar status virtually on his own. He told Bob Arum to go *** himself. He doesn't speak like a humble man when his actions contradict his words. He is big headed, narcassistic, ****y and has an inflated ego......a trait all top boxers share......i like the fact that he doesn't hide it and will gladly tell you how good he thinks he is. He will tell you it's all about the money (it is for every boxer), when other fighters will lie and talk **** and say it's not.

- He always performs. People **** on his record, but it's pretty difficult to go through those fighters undefeated. He dominated them. Even when he has an off night he finds a way to win or snaps out of it. Recent events with an elite fighter like Dawson should tell you how difficult it can be to continually perform at such a high level and "get yourself up" for every fight and never have an off night.

- Through his actions he told the WBA he wouldn't wipe his ass with their belt. Something other fighters in his position (Pac) should be doing....instead of fighting for a vacated belt in a weight class you have never fought in @ a catchweight, against an undeserving opponent.

- He has bought the PED issue to the forefront of boxing. I don't care what his intentions where. The result was a positive and what he wants to do is a positive for the sport (despite the negative things he also does).......what the other guy wants isn't.


AND BOTTOM LINE-----------> the sport is just more interesting with floyd around. He generates controversy and puts boxing in the mainstream in the USA (the most important boxing market).

I'm a fan cause the man is the purist true boxer in the game today.

hit the nail on the head. He stood right in front of Mosley and barely moved his feet at all, but because he didn't get hit he "ran all night"

Floyd fights in a phone booth just as good as he does outside, yet he does nothing but run.

I'm perplexed as to how he wins his fights by "RUNNING"

[shogunn]

I like floyd becuaes he's for USADA testing. Its the best in the world, EvEr. also cuz he likes bigger purses, and likes to talk trash. Everything else is secondary. all roads..

[daggum]

He will tell you it's all about the money (it is for every boxer), when other fighters will lie and talk **** and say it's not.

if it's all about the money why did he go on vacation when cotto and pac fights would have made him the most money? i guess it's not all about the money after all. he would rather make 20 or 30 million with his mismatch fights than risk losing for 50 or 60 million. "money" mayweather ha!

floyd hardly ever runs actually. if he did, he wouldn't shoulder roll and block as much. that's real defense, not running. camacho did more running in two or three fights than floyd did in his entire career.

my fat ass almost had a heart attack after floyd almost went down against shane, but i knew he floyd would pull through and put on a clinic.
