Floyd Mayweather still on top after Mannys rise and Fall

[SpeedKillz]

Margo, Mosley (prime), cotto, Pacman, Koysta and there are surely a couple of more. So many in prime fighters he ducked to avoid getting a potential loss

only one of these you could possibly make a case for is margo. floyd tried makin fights with the rest, so dont even go there

cotto openly admitted he didnt want floyd
mosley had a tooth ache the second time around
kostya was money related i think
and pacman...come on lol

Amazing that he has been p4p top 10 since 1998,he has seen them come and go yet he remains undefeated and on top once again p4p #1 at the age of 35 soon to be 36,He is 43-0 a 8 time champ(should be 9 just didnt pay for shanes belt)in 5 divisions no other fighter in the history of this sport has won 8 titles in 5 divisions and remained undefeated,over half of his fights have been title fights.Manny had a stint on top and all the hype,yet Floyd just kept defeating current champions coming off of big wins,no smoke and mirror act,no catch weight titles. Now it appears he will fight 2 more current champions in 2013 at the age of 36 and if he defeats them both he can retire 45-0 with possible 9(should be 10)world titles and maybe even possibly add 1 more lineal title to his resume,this guy is hated so much on here because of his perfection,this guy is a boxing god

what amaze me is how he manage to stay in the list from fighting bums ones a year

This thread is hilarious. You got people talking about Manny's great competition. He's fought 3 legitimate fights since '08 imo. Here's the truth:

Fought a washed up shot DLH in 08, DLH was. weight drained and busted up by Steve Forbes in previous fight
Fights Hatton who was KO'd by Mayweather and many say Hatton was never that good
Fought Cotto who arguably lost to Clottey and took a beating from Margarito @ a catch weight, I still give him credit for this
Fights Clottey ho hum no big deal
Fights Margarito @ another catchweight a disgraceful fight
Fights a clearly shot Mosley after Floyd dominated him after refusing to fight Shane when he was viewed as a threat
Fights Marquez who everyone thought would be a pushover at WW, Floyd dominated him there
Fights Bradley his best fight by FAR during this span, he gets props for this
Fights JMM agains and gets KTFO by a 39 year old natural lightweight


This run isn't that impressive. Manny has been carefully matched and he's been exposed. This is hardly murderers row. The only opponents who presented any stylistic challenges for Manny were Marquez and Bradley.

Well I respectfully respect your opinion,but if he had any then why didn't we see it in the mayweather fight??

Against pacquiao you don't need skills,to beat him you just need to come in hydrated.

you're showing your lack or non-existing boxing sense by your posts. ppl saying jmm has no skills should automatically be banned.

floyd was bigger faster than jmm. floyd is a defensive fighter. jmm feeds off pac's aggression. against floyd, he became the offensive fighter which is not his style. styles makes fights. i'll stop and let your pea size brain try to comprehend these and come up with some conclusion.
