Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather Cements His Position as All-Time Great

[leon30001]

I don't think you can make a case that Floyd isn't an all-time great anymore. He's just got too much done now. I didn't want to say it unless he fought Pac, but he has now (albeit it a bit late) and he beat him, clearly.

I don't think anyone disputed that but he still not in the top ten like his groupies try to make you believe ,his resume is pretty weak.

Floyd did exactly what he said he would do, take away what Manny does best. Smothered the flurries, used check hooks and used distance to control the fight.

What a fight.. Easy does it

Im nit a casual or newbie to sport. Have been watching since birth and the way floyd embarrased pac he made a case for TBE. No fighter couldve beat this floyd.

Sugar Ray Leonard? Sugar Ray Robinson?

Talks of being the best ever or all time greatest is pure nonsense. If Pac wasnt injured it would have been a very different fight. How can you trap Floyd along the ropes with one hand? At best Pac looked like Oscar when he fought him-someone who couldn't pull the trigger. Even if Pac was healthy, Floyd waited for Pac to get old and beaten twice before he took the challenge. Did this two with most of his opponenys. That's not ATG worthy argument at all.
Pac's resume/legacy remains more impressive. Floyd merely closed the gap.

Doesn't matter when the fight happened. Manny was never on the same level as Floyd. Not even close.

Moreover fighting like an amateur aint clinching in him for me.

He waited for guy 2 years younger to get older; do you realize how ****** you sound whenever you type that.

It was an Okay fight, what I saw...

Mayweather landing head punches in the beginning, made Pacquiao think a little more.

Mayweather fought his fight.

Manny did not move enough to fight his fight.

Mayweather dominated with points never hurt Pacquiao once.

Manny clearly hurt Mayweather twice, perhaps up to four times.

Pacquiao perhaps because of hurting Mayweather that he won.

Mayweather will go down as an all time good fighter. But no TBE by any means, why.

This fight should have taken place 5 years ago.

Real champs dont retire to avoid new comers when they are on a streak.

Does not matter how you slice it or cut it. Mayweather left and retired and then came back. He clearly avoided fighters. STRAIGHT UP!!!

He will be known as a great defensive fighter but too much of a runner. All my children for ever and ever will know him as a woman beater and the biggest dodger of all time.

Sad but true..


Manny is and will always be known as the best fighter of my era. Why..

Never ducked anyone

Goes Toe to Toe

Never runs..

Amen!!!!

This fight ******! Mayweather made it suck, and Pac let it suck. These guys just took a lot of people to the cleaners. If you want a good fight watch Solo Boxeo, ESPN2, or other small shows. They're better, and much cheaper.
