has FLOYD wasted his career?

[Squizz]

He's made what, $200 million in his career, and beaten many top fighters. He's got an impressive resume. He hasn't WASTED anything. Could he have done more? Sure. But I think you could apply that to every fighter in history. He's done well, and I think he's satisfied with the way his career has gone.

[Biolink]

He's going to the HOF and regardless of what he did or not people will be talking about his skills for years to come so I gotta say no.

[Pacquiao'd]

u cant blame him for not fighting those two.

he can blame him for not fighting cotto and marg too. arum prevented that

[Sweet Jesus]

Kind of hard to waste your career when you've been past your prime since 2007/8.

[MindBat]

He makes a good and intelligent point. I myself don't see Floyd topping the likes of the greats of the past. Floyd can say he is as a confidence booster for himself, and that's his prerogative.

Overall, he's right. Floyd should stay busier to avoid stagnation and rust. If Floyd is certain a Pacquiao fight won't ever materialize, he should just move on and fight other guys who hold titles and are worthy of a shot at the crown.

His record would certainly get a boost if he continues to fight worthy opponents and can maintain his undefeated record.

this fine fellow seems to think so.....

what do you think Earl?

By Every measurable standard Floyd's Career has exceeded all expectations.

1. Championships Won
2. Fame achieved
3. Money Earned
4. Hall of Fame Credentials
5. Impact on the Sport
6. Level of Competition (Champions faced)

Fighters are judged On How they dominated their eras and where they ranked in their era.

• Floyd didnt fight in Ali Era
• Floyd didnt Fight in SRR Era
• Floyd didnt fight in SRL Era

You can only fairly judge him on how he stood in his era.
And in Floyd's Era He stood of top of the Mountain the longest.

• Floyd was a top 10 P4P Fighter in only his 2nd year turning Pro.
• Floyd won his first title at the age of 21 beating a fighter who had never lost in that division in Gerno Hernandez.
• Floyd at 24 beat A Prime, Undisputed, Best Body Puncher in boxing @ 135 in Jose Luis Castillo (Twice)
• Floyd at 23 beat a Undefeated, Prime #5 P4P fighter Diego Corrales
• Floyd Mayweather: Career Span ( 11 Years: In which 10 Years He was a champion)
• Floyd was Fighter of the year 3 years out of 11 year Career
• Floyd was p4p #1 fighter in the sport for 3 years

Like it or Not. Floyd is the Standard in boxing.
He is undefeated and the face of boxing. Meaning the #1 draw.

Floyd is a waste of talent.

He has the skillsets but he has no balls.

Floyd's legacy will be defined by what-ifs and fantasy matchups and will ultimately be dismissed as a boxer who has no balls.

[Champ Is Here]

Maybe if he die he'll finally get the respect and acknowledgment he worked HARD for since he was a damn TODDLER

Thats the type of world we live in

What's funny to me is that when he decide to fight again, every single one of yall will be tuning in

[thebowtod]

He didn't waste his legacy per say, he is still top 50 or top 100 p4p, but he could have been much more than that. He also wasted many economic opportunities. His fight with pacman would have broken many records.
