Mayweather has consistently avoided the best available opposition (Great Article)

[MrTambourineMan]

Floyd fans still being made to look like shameless Morons on a Daily basis.



This thread has certainly buoyed this and any other Reasonable boxing fan's Esprit de corps.

Keep on Chugging, Kiddies. :*******:

Even if he did cherrypick his opponents, wasn't it the duty of those opponents to try and beat him.

agreed, Mayweather does avoid strong fighters
here's the article where he admits he avoided everyone:

Guess when he couldn't prove the rumors about PED positiives he had to go a different route. So he writes an opinion piece that non floyd fans will take as gospel just like they did the announcement of floyd khan 24 hours ago-which proved to be false and illuminated the sheep like mentality that develops when one commits to hating floyd in a "tea partyesque we hate *****" way.

With all the positive press floyd has been recieving post Canelo and the fact Hauser' last article was pretty much laughed at and he was exsposed as a TR shill-I doubt this article or the points raised will affect floyd's legacy outside the anti floyd crowd bubble.

So that means it will affect because there are many boxing fans that agree with this assessment .... only some Floyd fans don't.

By the way, Floyd fans were beginning to post and call Khan a legit opponent. I had a laugh...

Floyd became the best fighter of his generation and an ATG by ducking and dodging legitimate competition and fighting nothing but bums. Sounds just like NSB.

It gets so old. He was ducking Hatton too.

Did Floyd fight Hatton at 140 or at a weight Hatton had fought just once and looked very average?

That is the problem with Floyd fans. They just make excuses. It's like when they bring up that Marquez was a P4P fighter when he faced Floyd ..... but who cares about that dribble when the real reason he was a P4P fighter was because of what he did in the lower weight divisions NOT at 147!!!

Same with Hatton. He was a career 140 fighter NOT 147!!!!

Like clock work ..... you agree with that guy.

Yesterday you were building up Khan thinking that that was Floyd's next opponent. Shows your true colors!

Hatton was undisputed at 140 and a former titleholder at 147 who came into the ring outweighing Floyd. He was widely perceived as a major threat to Mayweather. Period.
