You bunch of know nothings.
Let me preface this by saying I am a fan of boxing, PERIOD.So lets start off with a comparison that many on here have made. Sugar Ray Leonard is a ATG and Mayweather is not. OK. If your a Mayweather hater/Pac only fan please stop reading here because the following may cause you to commit suicide.(and you wont be missed).
Sugar Ray Leonard
Sugar Ray fought a bunch of nobodies until his first NABF title fight against Pete Ranzany (which is a name 99% of you don't know) After, Leonard fought a nobody again, then fought Wilfred Bennitez, Dave Boy Green then his first lost to Duran. Re matched Duran (the famous "no mas") he fought a nobody next then moved up. He defeated Kalule then Thomas Hearns, (and although he won by TKO in the 14th it was a hard fight). Next Leonard fought 2 more nobodies, then moved up 2 weight classes to defeat Marvin Haggler. Leonard moved up again to win a belt from another nobody name Donny Lelonde (more like a glorified champ). Then finally after what many to this day still consider 7 years of ducking Ray Leonard re matched Thomas Hearns, And after 9 years finally granted a rubber match to Duran.
Floyd Mayweather
Now check this out, Mayweather fought a bunch of nobodies until he went on a tear starting with his WBC Super Feather weight title fight against Genaro Hernandez, Angel Manfredy, Carlos Rios, Justin Juko, Carlos Gerena (suspect record leading up to Mayweather), Gregerio Vargas. Then fought a nobody in Emmanuel Augustus. Then Mayweather went on another tear fighting Diego Coralles, Carlos Hernandez, Jesus Chavez, moved up to fight Jose Louise Castillo, re matched Castillo, Victoriano Sosa, Phillip Ndou, moved up to fight Demarcus Corley and a average opponent named Henry Bruseles both were title eliminators. Mayweather then fought Arturo Ghatti, Shamba Mitchell. Mayweather moved up again to fight Zab Judah, Carlos Baldomir (who was the champion at the time and had not lost in 7 years) The Baldomir fight was the last fight Mayweather would have under Top Rank. Then Mayweather finally got the fight he'd been trying to get but Arum would not allow because De La Hoya was no longer fighting under top rank since 2004. Mayweather goes on another tear, defeating De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton, Juan Manuel Marquez (who was not signed with top rank at the time) Shane Mosley (who Mayweather was chasing for years.) Victor Ortiz (which I wouldn't say was a cherry pick but was still a weak opponent), Miguel Cotto. Then Mayweather fights Guerrero after Coming out of jail. For now the list ends with Canelo Alverez (who EVERYONE said he wouldn't fight)
Lmao at anyone who says Mayweather cherry picks. Everyone on this list was a top contender considered among the best in their respective divisions at the time Mayweather fought them. Mayweather chased De La Hoya but that fight was blocked by Arum, Mayweather chased Cotto once again Arum and Cotto was too green, Mayweather chased Mosley, but Mosley ducked. Since Mayweather left Arum in 2006 he has not fought anyone under the Top Rank banner. Just like DLH, and just like when Cotto left Top Rank, Mayweather will fight Pac when he is no longer promoted by Top Rank.
So all you ingrates say Sugar Ray Leonard is a ATG because of 4 fights lmao. Mayweather has had a better career has fought more top fighters and is more skillful. Mayweather is more dominant now then Leonard was in his entire career. Its evident that most of you know little about boxing, know less about boxing history and just regurgitate the same chit you hear from others.Comment

If you like any of the Rocky movies, you will enjoy this novel A Hollow Fight!
A Hollow Fight is the story of a troubled fat boy named Mike Crow who decides that being homeless is more satisfying than living a typical teenage life. Happily, he takes off from San Diego California and travels aimlessly down Pacific Coast Highway. He fights off weather changes, battles hunger, and searches for nightly shelter.
Months after embarking on an uncertain journey, the adventurer ends up in the Oregon wilderness. Mike climbs hills, talks to animals, builds fire pits, and meanders through monstrous trees as he lives as one with nature. Survival becomes what he believes will be the fight of his life after he runs out of canned goods to eat and can’t locate clean water. As he is dying, Mike spots a cargo train and is forced to stab himself for adrenaline.
In Seattle, Mike the bum rescues a girl being attacked; however, he is put in a sticky situation and goes to jail. At trial, he is found innocent and is approached by an older jury member named Ethan Chan, whom happens to be a boxing trainer. As Mike trains for his amateur boxing fight, he learns a thing or two about love when he bonds with the old wisdom of Ethan.
Available formats include iBooks, Nooks, Kindles, and in paperback.
A portion of each sale goes to The O.C. Rescue Mission (:
