Floyd Mayweather Jr. thinking about extending his contract!!!

[The Big Dunn]

How do you figure repeat buyers from ppv numbers? Not everyone is a fan of Floyd's like yourself...so how can you speak for the others?
You can say they ducked Joe schmoe all you want...they still faced the greats in their prime. Like i said you are cherry picking their resumes, like when you picked out SRL.

How come you didn't mention how Floyd never fought Paul williams, sergio, Margarito?

for the same reasons I didn't mention manny didn't fight paul Williams, Sergio, raheem or salita. Its utterly ******ed IMO to base someone's legacy on who they didn't fight. No one fights everyone.

Boxing was huge and mainstream before Floyd. Boxing thrived when Floyd went into multiple fake retirement and there was not even outcry for him to come back when he was gone unless it was to fight Pac. Boxing will continue to thrive once he officially retires.

The point is that the SRL And SRRs you pointed did fight greats in their prime. You can't say the the same for Floyd. You can't knock SRL or SRR for who they didnt fight when they fought the best. SRR and Pep also faced over 100 opponents each..the volume of fights they faced have to also be taken into account for...it's amazing. Pep fought 2 guys in 1 week before lol.

If you say so. Dude, you trying to under value guys on Floyd's resume is a pointless NSB exercise. He has fought and defeated more current and former champions than any current fighter. If you need to devalue that to lessen floyd-go ahead.

Only Floyd fans are so blinded to say he's irreplaceable or the goat. His resume is weak plain and simple with obvious missing fights. He will be remembered for that as much as it hurts you.

World champions mean nothing...There have been so many world champs. Heck even Algieri is a world champ.

You mean the rematch from the guy that won the title from Manny and that had never fought at WW before then , who also has never fought a legit WW .

Like I said you spin any BS Manny rolls in just so he can come up smelling rosy .

Manny is ducking genuine WWs is so obvious and your spin wont change it .

Manny fought Cotto, Clottey, Mosley, Margarito, and wanted to fight Floyd but Floyd was and still is not interested.

Taking the Schaeffer/Haymon vs Arum feud into account, at this point in time, the reasons have more to do with "slim pickings" than Manny not wanting to fight a true WW. Manny did it before so your argument is a JOKE! Perhaps in 2015, things will get better and there will be more to choose from. Or Manny will go down to 140.


As for Bradley: Everyone wanted to see Manny take on a young lion like Bradley and many gave Bradley a really good shot at winning. It was considered to be a very risky fight for Manny. So its YOU that should stop spinning it to make it sound like it was a duck.
Bradley had fought at WW before. He came in at a full 147 against Abregu. He also fought at that weight in the amateurs. Bradley also beat the guy that beat Manny

Here is Andre Ward saying that his toughest opponent ever was Bradley:

Those fights that Floyd "ducked", were to be relatively much more risky for Floyd. So it's ******ed to think that someone can duck all those fights and still get protected by Floyd fans and their excuses but it happens on this site everyday.

I never said or implied either of these things. Everyone's resume is "missing fights" as you call it. For you to think it will impact floyd more than another fighter is somewhat ridiculous. There isn't a different set of rules for fighters you don't like. Its petty and childish to try and define someone based on what they didn't do.

There is a reason unbiased boxing writers/media/journalists have floyd ahead of manny-they use one set of criteria and judge each fighter equally on those criteria.

It would be nice if Manny fans could be objective when they rank fighters.

You did say he was irreplaceable a few pages back. Like i said...Floyd hasn't had the prime ATG'S on his resume so of course it will be something that people will remember him by. An undefeated slick defensive ATG and perhaps best of this "era" but didn't really challenged himself to his caliber...like Calzaghe to a lesser extent.

Why bring in Manny? This isn't about Manmy...This is about Floyd's legacy and place amongst the greats.

Manny fans have got to get over it that Manny isn't considered to be better than floyd. One day, hopefully, you guys will be able to log on and be able to accept that.

Manny has ahd a great career, won a FOTD, won multiple FOTY awards and is the 3rd highest PPV seller of all time. Just be satisfied with that, stop trying to place him on the tier he doesn't belong.

Is it really terrible to be the 26th best boxer since WWII?
