Was Floyd Mayweather A Wasted Talent?

I believe he had the talent and charisma to be the GOAT. The fact that he will not be considered the greatest at the end of his career is, in a way, a waste. He still had a great career. Not hating.

This is it, exactly. He's not a dissappointment from a achievements standpoint, but he could've and should be doing so much more with that ability.

You got a link for that? I knew Pac was top of the p4p rankings but I thought Shane was still #1 at WW before the fight. Either way Floyd fought the best available and everyone was agreed on that until Floyd dismantled Shane.

he was # 1

All of that and he still trash-talks, b1tch-slapped his baby mama, threatened his kids, throws fake money unto the crowd, goes ape-**** on stream spewing racism.

And what does that have to do with his boxing career and/or performances?

LOL most ppl think he is? well in some ways i guess for not being so active lately its annoying

Yes. If he fought the best fighters at 147 like Cotto, Margarito, and now Pacquiao, at the time everyone wanted to see it, I don't think anybody would have a problem with him retiring. Hell, if he'd just fight Pacquiao and retire I wouldn't mind. He's waiting for Pacquiao to lose his edge.

He could have achieved so much more. He wasted his talent.
