Comments Thread For: Mayweather: I Don't Get Enough Credit For My Wins

[GoldenGloveLove]

Uh no. Floyd cherry picks his opponents that's what makes him who he is. It's not that he didn't fight a certain fighter it's the time when he chose to fight them period.

If you can repeat a lie enough times you can convince a lot of people it's true. Keep working on it. Maybe people who don't follow Mayweather's career will believe you out of ignorance. Good luck brah.

Morales was done when Pac finally beat him lol

Idiot floydiot alt. Pac lost the first fight. So its natural for him to avenge his lost and put a final conclusion to the trilogy. If Pac didnt avenge his lost you floydiot will sing a different tune. You can't have it both ways floydiot.

[braveheart31]

So if Cotto and Mosley were in category 3 when Floyd beat them, what were they when PAC beat them or when TROUT beat Cotto since that was after Floyd?

Who the **** has mayweather cherry picked
Everyone hes fought has been coming off a win impressive win at that
So who has he cherry picked

So floyd cherry picked Corrales floyd cherry picked judah floyd cherry picked de la hoya floyd cherry picked Castillo floyd cherry picked p4p#2 marquez
Floyd cherry picked undefeated prime hatton floyd cherry picked mosley after mosley destroyed margarito floyd cherry picked young strong ortiz after ortiz destroyed berto
Floyd cherry picked cotto after cottos biggest win over margorito never mind the fact floyd should be fighting at 140. He actually eats whatever to make 147 and 154 or 152
The vast majority of his fights hes out weighed

Now I giess hes cherry picking canelo
Well your going to think he cherry picked canelo after he blows canelo ass out

People need to get the hate out their hearts before they judge a fighter stop letting your hate cloud reality
Learn something about boxing before you comment and speak on it

Keep in mind pac beat these guys after floyd beat them but pac was praised for beating them when they were washed up weight drained or coming off a loss

LMAO! This proved my point how ******ed the floydiots are.

A past prime washed up Oscar almost beat Floyd. The same Oscar past prime washed up Pac made him quit and retired for good.

Floyd saw 140 Hatton struggled at 147. Floyd made Hatton to move up at 147 and ko him in 10. Pac after the Oscar fight at 147 moved down and fought Hatton in his best weight division 140 and ko him in 2.

Pac beat Marquez first in his best weight division. Floyd tricked Marquez to fight a catchweight fight at welterweight and weight cheated him.

Floyd faked his retirement to duck prime younger Cotto. Pac moved up to 145 catweight fight after he fought Hatton at 140 and tko him in 12.

So should I go on?

Say he did that then well be here saying if he hadnt "ducked" Diego, hatton, oscar, and zab he would be considered great.

No bi*ch...maybe ur dumbass would be saying that. Nobody gave a **** about any of those fights u mentioned save for the Chico fight. & MAYBE the zab fight but that was on some ******-fab clash of the trash talkers ****. Zab had already been ktfo. Oscar was already a part-time fighter & had his face chipped the **** up something awful by Stevie forbes....Hatton was king of 140 & was getting his **** tossed at 47 wen he came up. So u can beat it w/ ur twisted logic. Had floyd gone thru the hauntd house & beat the boogy men at 47 nobody was give a ****!! about wut he did b that...

[FU€RO]

Hell when De La Hoya was fighting those guys at WW Floyd was still at 130/135. You couldn't get the GOOD fighters at that weight to take a fight against him. You can't knock him for that.

I've been a fan of this sport for years. There is something I have disliked about boxing and it's fighters who have claimed in a certain time to be the best without fighting the best.

I would agree that Floyd talent wise is going to be or should be recognize as one of the greatest talents. Unfortunately, his resume does not warrant the recognition that he is seeking, and when compared to many of the all time greats, it falls short and it's not even near an ATG level.

Some will point out that Floyd didn't have options, such as your claim. But it doesn't take too much time to do a little research and see who were the other champions when Floyd was at 130/135.

Luckily I didn't have to, because I could recall how Super Featherweight / Jr. Lightweight was one of the hottest divisions back when Floyd was the WBC champion. All of the champions were young and undefeated.

Besides Floyd, there was Diego Corrales (IBF), Joel Casamayor (WBA) and Acelino Freitas (WBO). All undefeated, all willing and able to face each other and in fact they did. The great exception being Floyd.

Now out of all of them, Floyd did face Corrales. But when did Floyd face Corrales? When Corrales was sentenced to go to jail for domestic violence. I still remember Floyd calling Diego a wife beater throughout their press conferences. And how boxing analyst were talking that Corrales may not be 100 percent because of the legal and domestic problems he was facing. Floyd went on to give the performance of his life, and Corrales problems were long forgotten.

The Corrales fight, was the blueprint that Floyd would follow later in his career. Take on a fighter with a mental, physical, contractual or economic advantage. Floyd has never taken a fight on equal terms. The great exception being the only fight Floyd had a hard time. The first Jose Luis Castillo fight. Those who really know about boxing, not a groupie but a real fan of the sport, knows that Floyd lost that fight. And if it wasn't for Arum's protection Floyd's 0 would have been long gone. Yes, Floyd did come back and outboxed Castillo's ears off in the rematch, but it doesn't take away that he was beaten in the first fight.

After the "Great Castillo Scare". Floyd would never take a risk and embark on the cherry picking route to stardom. And as one poster said, a past his prime DLH made him a Superstar and a C+ welterweight in Hatton cemented his status.

History cannot be ignored. Do the research for yourself. Their is a saying boxing that your as good as your last fight. Floyd's been living under that signature. It's now wonder he never reached out to fight the best challenges available when he had the chance.

I have to quote Abner Mares on his recent lost "I'm not in boxing to retire undefeated, I'm in boxing to fight the best". That is the mentality that every fighter should have who wants to be known as an all time great and the one that every fan should demand from a champion.

Another alt with the same ole same ole lies and exagerrations.

[badnewsbrown]

He's got way more credit than is deserved for a guy who's been cherry picking for the last 10 years! There's always a catch. It's too bad when people look back they'll forget about it all!
