Has a fighter that fights the top 3 guys ever been crapped on like Floyd?

[kiDynamite92]

I also blame him for not fighting martinez who has always said he would get himself down to 154 (a weight floyd has fought at before) to get the fight done. Whats floyds excuse? 'no one knows martinez' well who the fcuk knew Victor Ortiz?

The margo fight was forgivable because of the plaster.

because theyd just rob mayweather and give pac the bigger share. they did it to marquez

I don't think they'd rob mayweather in vegas, even if it was managed by top rank and also the same could happen to pack if he took the 40mil.

hate is the new love. Boxing fans know this is a ploy. He says its for money only. Whether you hate him or love him you pay him and he wins. You think Floyd cares about us, or his legacy? He'll be known as an undefeated long time champion who dominated this era. Period. And he's rich as f. He ain't got no worries.

Thats true..... hence why I'm going to stream everyone of his fights from now on.

its crazy, i mean the guy is almost 37 and he has been fighting the top guys in numerous weight classes since 1998 yet fans still arent happy. what gives?

Yes, BUT, he laughs all the way to the bank, while the posters that whine about him are bums.

A fighter could a invent time machine, decapitate both Robinson and Greb on the same night and still get hate. Sports fans are just like that.

But hate will be gone with time. Look at Holmes, Johnson, Ali etc

Hes crapped on as he doesnt work as hard as his peers. He makes people await his long return with anticipation as if the annoucement was worth the wait but then its anti climatic Guerrerro.
The same kind of opponent pac would have fought 3 times in the space of a year or so, compared to Floyds once nearly 2 years for one fight.

If you think your eagerly anticipated announcement of opponent should be a celebrated occasion make it a worthwhile opponent or shut up.

i hope you blame pacquiao for not fighting martinez and williams too then because they both said theyd fight pac and pac has fought at junior middle before

i used his opponents as a measuring stick as to how he would do against the ATG's. Floyds best win to me was JLC, he was a real good fighter but Floyds 2 'victories' over him were not that impressive.

I do blame him for not getting the Pacman fight done, vacations, 100 million dollar demands and pointless blood tests. If he truely wanted to clean up the sport he would campaign for a olympics style drug testing, a 24/7/365 type one.

Fine, we agree that his stated crusade of cleaning up the sport is spin. SO do you hold spin against every fighter? of course not.

The JLC fight is a good measure of what I'm talking about. This site proclaimed JLC one of the 25 best LW's of all time. Floyd fought him in his 1st 2 fights at LW. Yet you say these victories were not that impressive. Could you tell me any fighter in your lifettime that beat one of the 25 best LW's of all time in their 1st 2 times at the weight?

The 1st fight was close the 2nd fight was a domination. and you weren't impressed by that?

Like I said if you want to place blame even though all the facts dont support it thats fine. But to judge a fighters opposition based on whether you like him or not is extremely childish.

WHether floyd is the most hated or most loved fighter in the world has no bearing on how good Guerrero, Castillo, Mosley etc etc are.
