Will Floyd mayweather jr always be relevant in the boxing world?

[deliveryman]

That's my opinion you're entitled to yours as well

Your opinion is ******, which makes you ******.

[daggum]

he's not sven ottke. the greatest most relevant fighter of our time.

[junior gong]

Idk man these floyd Stan's are relentless with the fantasy match ups

Floyd isnt someone the public have really taken to and he seems to be a trainwreck away from the ring, especially from a pr perspective. He will be known and able to make a lot of money, but that will come to an abrupt halt when he retires and if he's not fighting, the public will drop him too.

[hugh grant]

In fantasy fights Floyd will do well always. Propaganda and protecting his zero has given the impression he is hard to beat.

But for what he has actually done, he is alongside the Morales and DLHs of this world.

Hovering around the 50 mark would be fair to a man who dont care about legacy.

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

I think he will be quickly forgotten about once retired except to boxing fans.

He retired before and the forums were taking about Floyd everyday all day.

[GUEVARA]

He will only be relevant to his little fan girls.

You do know he is attention whoring right?

[hugh grant]

He retired before and the forums were taking about Floyd everyday all day.

just about when heis coming back so someone can kick hisass, rather than about how good he is.

[FeFist]

What do you mean by relevant? If you mean still have an impact on the sport then no, not exactly a mark against him though. Sugar Ray Leonard is no longer relevant, same with Tommy Hearns.

If you mean will people still talk about him then yes. He's one of the best fighters of his era and one of the best of all time in terms of technical ability. He will be compared with past greats and used as a yard stick to measure new fighters.

Thats the boxing forums, not the general public, and in ten or twenty years there will be another generation of fans with their own star fighters, so like I said it wont last very long, not this time because there will be no coming back.

he's not sven ottke. the greatest most relevant fighter of our time.

Calzaghe would convincingly SD Ottke
