    Mayweather did not fight any HOF in that decade except for Oscar and Marquez. His resume is weak, anybody knows that except the *****s. The real second placer for 2000 FOTD is Bernard Hopkins.

      I understand you love Floyd and hate Pac but try being objective once in awhile. So who do you think deserved it?

      Mayweather deserved it , he didnt get it just because he retired for 2 years .

        I thought I had read somewhere that it was him, Pea or Jones. Wasn't sure on the clear winner though. He had a good decade, aside from the Tito debacle....in which he got robbed.

          Floyd deserved it, he was in the running...Hopkins also deserved it he was in the running...Pac also deserved it as well...To say he didn't it just being a hatter.

            Well for obvious reasons. Manny is not favored to beat Floyd. And that is a fact. I can't see any analyst predicting a Pac victory. It will truly be an upset.

                Exactly, you can't just take 2 years off in your prime when other fighters are putting in work.

                      If you cant handle the truth dont ask. Because Pac is shop worn now, whereas Pac will be beating a peak Floyd.

                      But still, it will be Floyds best win, so its not as if it wont be doing anything for his legacy. Beating Floyd wont do anymore for Pacs legacy other than to shut some people up who think Floyd is better than Pac.
                      But Pac is FOTD without having fought Floyd, and FOTD is Pacs legacy.
