Comments Thread For: Mayweather: If they keep paying, keep handpicking them!

[Frank Ducketts]

Hand picked fights. But you don't see Canelo, or anyone here calling him the greatest fighter of all time, do you?

Thats the glaring difference. Floyd and his minions say hes the greatest to ever lace up a pair of gloves. By fighting Sharmba Mitchell, Victoriano Sosa, Lovemore Ndou & Carlos Baldomir. Such bravery!

And what does your location say under your user name?

Ok I'm out.

Sorry, I had to get that one in.

I can't stop laughing

I don't think it was sarcasm. He's just saying if he can get the easiest fight for the most possible money then why not do it?



This time. It's all the other times boxing fans have an issue with.

You have to put things in terms so people can understand. Like this,

to Floyd stan 1,2,3......, remember that time you wanted to play with your dad, but he was never around, whether it be working, or just gone, you were mad. Mad that every time you wanted to play catch, shoot hoops, or play a video game with him, he was too busy to bother with you. Finally, when you're 16 and into girls at school, he wants to hang out. Does that one time make up for all of the other times?

i knew it , thats what cowards do

[Mr.Fantastic]

Floyd rides on the fan base of other boxers too. Oh he the PPV king, blah blah.

Reason this fight will do massive numbers is cause of Canelo and the people on the undercards.

I don't think anybody thinks Floyd is the greatest because of those four fights lol and he didn't fight Lovemore Ndou he fought Philip Ndou who was 31-1 with 31 KO's at the time

The answers that a few of you have given make no sense, lmao.

Why do they keep paying a man who is hand picking his opponents? Why? Don't just guess. Give a legit answer, and not an answer that will gain you a few friends here.

Why are they letting Floyd pick his opponents?

I already answered this many times. Let me give you a little lesson about a capitalist economy. They pay him because he is a product that has been fed to consumers making us believe he is great. ( Just like they made us believe a Coca-Cola is great and is the Joy of Life). Just like they made us believe that Irak possesed a threat to Nationa security and that a war is needed. And, amazingly, the consumers are so easily brainwashed that most people that pay to watch Floyd fight, actually want to see him lose for the first time and say " I am part of history ". You see, marketing people are geniuses that know how to penetrate our minds in order to believe in something, therefore buy it or support it no matter how bad it is. If Floyd loses or if he had lost at least 3 or 4 times, most people won´t care about him. Get it?? Thank you.

Frankie Ducketts to the rescue.

It's not so much that he hand-picks his opponents, which is just strategy, it's the lack of challenging himself and fighting the best and most dangerous opponents. That will always haunt his legacy. There will be too many "what ifs" when floyd is retired. He's not the greatest ever.

lovemore ndou is actually better than phillip ndou lol.phil ndou didn't beat a soul in his career. knocked out a bunch of bums. lovemore became world champ and even beat phillip head to head.

[bigsmoothh]

The big question I pose to you guys is, "Why do they keep paying Floyd if he is hand picking his opponents"?

Just tell me why? I only want to know why, that's all.

That's the million dollar question, to fight Ortiz,Guerrero,cotto gfoh...........
