one of the best ever, the best ever no way.

Over the last 5 years, it's been always the same story from Floyd fans.

- Floyd fan "Except for Manny, Floyd's opponent is not a bad pick"
- Floyd fan "Except for Sergio Martinez, Floyd's opponent is not a bad pick"
- Floyd fan "Except for the fact that he is old, inactive and no longer in his prime, Floyd's opponent is not a bad pick"

- Floyd fan "Except for it being his first or second fight at WW, Floyd's opponent is not a bad pick"

You must be ignoring all the threads where people are saying that Maidana fight is a cherry pick. You have been ignoring this for 5 freaking years!

It used to be ...Take The Test...from these Flowmos .

Now it's ...Leave Arum .

Next it's probably...PAC mom can't attend the fight .

It is funny how butthurt people around here get whenever there are site-hosted articles that don't slam Floyd. It ruins their bubbles of delusion and they get very upset.

I couldn't wait to read the comments in this thread because I knew exactly what people were going to sat lmao. Its hilarious how emotional some of u people get over anything Floyd says.

Its also hilarious that he's been fighting people over the last what? 5 years now? - Fighters that people swore that he would avoid because they presented too big of a threat, and yet after he dominates them they go back to the same recycled lines over and over again. Its like groundhog day coming on this site lol.

No, he is correct.

The measure of a man is how he responds to defeat, not being satisfied and comfortable with 'success'.

I used to believe in all the 'undefeated' BS, until I lost fights myself and doubted myself, but in reality you always learn more about yourself from defeats than victories.

If FMJ lost a fight and came back stronger his legacy would be unquestionable.

It is not about Floyd being 'unbeatable', more a case of Floyd not LOOKING for anyone who can beat him.

It is simple psychology, 'success' for Floyd is $$$$.

Where most serious student's of boxing know that success is avenging your losses.

great post. true champions heart is tested from coming back from a loss. not being undefeated.

LOL you believe this crock of shat?

[The Tase]

As Bradley said, Pac is still the best fighter in the world. To come back from being KO'ed like Pac has shown Pac can come back from adversity, qualities Floyd hasnt shown and we dont know if Floyd has.

Floiyd isnt a complete fighter and champion. Hes an on top fighter and when things are going well and he can cherry pick and fight when he wants, he looks fine. But untill his back is against the wall we wont know.

great post. true champions heart is tested from coming back from a loss. not being undefeated.

Just because people said he wouldn't doesn't mean the fights were a big challenge. He picks guys coming off exciting wins that caught the publics attention. That's it, it's about selling PPV, not fighting the best guys. I never thought he'd fight Canelo personally but then he made it at 152 so I didn't really care anymore .

wtf? Lol wow.

Why would people say that Floyd is scared to fight someone if they didn't think that person would be a challenge/have a chance to win?

If people are saying that "Floyd won't fight ___ because he's scared/doesn't want to fight against real competition" and then fights them, obviously he's fighting quality opponents at the time he fights them. You can't be honest with yourself as a human being and claim that Floyd would be scared to fight someone like Paulie Malignaggi, for example, mainly because you'd look ****** doing so.

You serious? Before Mayweather fought Mosley, the majority of people on this forum said he would never take the fight because he was scared. Read old threads on this forum and look at the video interviews during this time and you'll know that's the case. Freddie Roach, Brian Kenny and others are examples of people that said as much.

You'll find the same exact thing with Victor Ortiz, except people said after he beat Mosley that he wouldn't fight any young, hungry fighters.

You didn't see it as much with Guerrero, but you certainly didn't have people ****ting on the fight until after Floyd demolished him.

Same exact thing with Canelo. Majority of people said he would never fight Canelo. You, of course, know this because you admitted as much in your post.

All you have to do is do 2 minutes worth of research to know that everything I just said is the case. I'm sure you won't because you're more concerned with ****ting on anything Mayweather does than you are with what facts are.

All you people do is look at fights in hindsight and look for ways to criticize Floyd. With the Pacquiao fight not being available for reasons that have been beaten to the ground, Floyd is obviously fighting the most logical opponents at the time.

Just because people said he wouldn't doesn't mean the fights were a big challenge. He picks guys coming off exciting wins that caught the publics attention. That's it, it's about selling PPV, not fighting the best guys. I never thought he'd fight Canelo personally but then he made it at 152 so I didn't really care anymore .

SMDH! Wasn't it Mayweather that said "we're not fighting to see who the best is"?
