Comments Thread For: Guerrero: I'm Stronger Than Ever For Mayweather Jr.

[daggum]

Mayweather has been one of the most smartest businessmen to ever laced a pair of gloves. He's been able to manage his career during his prime just like De La Hoya did. And while De La Hoya risked his stock by boxing against other difficult fighters, Mayweather has been able to promote fights his own unique way, and has made millions out of it, without too much risk. He sells himself as the best ever because it's his way to promote his fights, obviously, and maybe if he fought some fighters on their prime in the past the 0 on his record would have been gone long ago, but he doesn't care about being the best fighter in history in his mind, he's seizing the opportunity of making a lot of millions of dollars before retiring, because he knows that once he's done with boxing, he won't make money the same way, while it would be difficult for him to find a boxer with his same abilities in order to sign him to his promotional company. And just remember, you can't say anything about him because he is older than most of the fighters he's faced, and he started his career at the 130 division, which makes his domination cover 5 divisions. If boxers manage their careers like he's done, they will be able to enjoy their money after retirement without health issues. I understand the point of view of us the fans, but you need to understand the boxers' point of view too, who risk too much of their lives just to please us.

ok so i guess football players should only play against teams where they know they won't get injured? this is boxing not tiddlywinks. contact is required. floyd's mindset is the equivalent to if the ravens said "yeah sorry 49ers we can't play you, you are too risky. you hit too damn hard. we will play this little league team instead." if the ravens refused to play the 49ers would they be the best? no. they would be laughed at for being cowards that were scared of getting hurt. in boxing's deranged world floyd doesn't fight the best and he's still the best based on fantasy power. makes no sense.

Oh thanks for reminding me about another excuse.

The difference is that he will do what you said when he feels its a beatable opponent. What happened against others such as Manny? Everyone wanted to see that except for Floyd!

I can back up my statements. Go check out a few videos of Floyd when asked about what you stated. Floyd has gone on record stating that "Floyd doesn't fight the best, he fights for money"

Your a hater dog! He asked you a question of who Floyd should fight instead of Robert and you said look at some video?? Are you bring up the old Pac situation. Again who should Floyd fight in his weight class instead of Rob?? Yeah I thought so!

[Starz20]

Floyd is also scared of Martínez.

Martinez is scared of Ward! And Canelo is scared of GGG! How does that sound?? idiot

If he fights for a living anybody can beat anybody! And in boxing all it takes is ONE shot ask Pacquiao, Hatton, Williams all of that! But you're a clear hater and to say you can't get hurt by another professional is crazy, especially when that professional has over 60% knockouts dumb ass.

sure floyd could get hurt but the chances are much less and he knows that. aka cherry picking. real fighters don't pick and choose their opponents based on who will possibly hurt them the most. whoever is the best that's who you are supposed to fight. you aren't supposed to retire when dangerous fighters are around or make up excuses as to why you can't fight them. stop giving floyd fantasy points. he didn't fight the fights that mattered. beating guerrero is fine but it ain't the "super bowl" like floyd pretends. it's the first round. floyd is the king of first rounders. in the ncaa tournament do #1 seeds after beating the #16 seed say "our work is done here." no but floyd says that all the time.

I think mayweather gets pushed to the limit in this one .. One thing that Floyd always has a clear edge on most oppos is that he either mentally destroys u before the fight or in the ring .. Guerrero is very strong mentally and has overcame alot more than what Floyd has in life .. My point is is that Floyd won't have that advantage .. Guerrero is very smart in that ring too and always adjust ...

In football the league chooses who you have to play. When you are your own promoter, you choose whoever you want to fight. He has is own fanbase, so he doesn't worry about what haters say about his decisions. And you got no point in your comparison about 2 completely different sports.

[ddangerous]

I just wanna see a good, competitive fight so train your ass off, Ghost.

Floyd did state he doesn't fight for legacy he fights for money. I don't think floyd ducked anyone but its common sense he fights for money only and will make the right choice business wise. Floyd is the p4p best right now

Yeah he is making the right choice because Robert Guerrero is the best person he can fight right now and is actually a legitimate opponent. People trying to downplay Robert Guerrero is not fair to Guerrero, this dude worked his ass off and came back from an over a year lay off and dominated. He been calling Floyd out since 2010 where he didn't do **** and just kept winning championships and now have the credentials (the best currently) to fight Floyd. If Floyd chose anyone else he will have much more negative things said about his choice, even if it was Canelo. RG makes the best business sense because his resume is better than the others and he can impose some type of threat versus Mayweather.

Your a hater dog! He asked you a question of who Floyd should fight instead of Robert and you said look at some video?? Are you bring up the old Pac situation. Again who should Floyd fight in his weight class instead of Rob?? Yeah I thought so!

He left once I asked him who would had been a better choice.. He acts like there are an infinite people Floyd should had fought. When he don't even understand what the **** he talking about.

yes they are different sports but surely the same rules of competition apply. if you don't beat the best how are you the best? beating second tier opponents does not make you the best unless you are in fantasy land

floyd has turned boxing into a non-sport. some people care. you obviously don't. you act like being "your own promoter" is something good. it just means you can duck and dodge with impunity. the fans should hold floyd even more responsible for his ducking since he's the one choosing his opponents, but they are as dumb as a wheel of cheese and pretend guerrero and ortiz are great just so their guy can keep winning. the sport they follow is called floyd mayweather. I follow boxing.
