I honestly have never seen Mayweather put on a "masterclass"

[littlemac]

Honestly. Im going to be honest. I dont like him, hes ugly, unappealing, horrible personality, so i try and limit any exposure i give to the wife beating ego maniac. But i judge a guy on his skills, regardless of personality. For example i dont like Amir Khan, but hes one of my favourites as i think hes tremendously talented. When hes on hes on, and there no denying is incredible speed and skill.

Has Floyd ever done that for me??Nah. The fights ive seen, whether live or on youtube were as follows.

Castillo-We all agree he lost that one.

Hatton-got the pay per view. Hatton did terribly well considering he was fighting floyd at a weight class the pundits said he should never fight at. Pus Cortez was disgraceful. however Hatton still caught Floyd a few times despite disadvantages. Not impressed yet.

ODH-Draw. Crap fight where a past prime fighter was pressing all the action and floyd ducked in his usual awkward way. No one won that fight. Certainly no masterclass.

Ortiz-Just when i thought the fight was exciting, floyd cheated and pot shotted his last "ko". Pathetic as the fight was quite good untill then.

Canelo-Fair cop, i scored this 4 rounds victory for Floyd. This is the best ive ever seen him fight personally. Even then though he weight drained a green fighter. But fairs fair, he boxed well imo.

Maidana fight 1-Draw again. I am not making this up. I Couldnt quite give it to Maidana as he tired in the second half of the fight. So a draw is fair.

Pacquio fight-i watched this a week later on youtube knowing it would be crap. Again a Draw. No problem floyd getting the nod. Pacquio had one arm, but still landed the better punches. Floyd had the fight he wanted. Bit again, i was not impressed.


In conclusion, the media keep telling me "genius this and genius that". I dont see it. Lets face it, if he wasnt America he would be like Rigondeux. He just doesnt dominate opponents like say Wladimir Klitschko does. Wlad for 10/11 years has literally barely lost a round, and probably KOED 80-90 percent of his opponents. I never feel wowed by floyd, i never feel appreciated that ive watched something truely great.

All i see is a very good boxer aming dam sure he had every advantage for the fight and being extremely defensive whilst doing enough to make it tricky for the judges.


I will not miss him when he retires...

Your obviously a closet Floyd hater and it shows in your comment about Ortiz where you say it was exciting until Floyd knocked him out. I guess Ortiz head butting Floyd was exciting until Floyd paid him back with the same coin and then the cry babies come out. but you notice how all those guys(bigger harder punching) seem to get tamed when their in there with Floyd. The smaller brittle fisted Floyd always finds a way to win. Dude is a master.

Corrales and Marquez. He was so on top in both fights he put on a show.

Your cries will fall on deaf ears, the Flowemoes will not agree with you, ever. If they hear something they can't counter, they will become evasive. Like their Papa.

Corrales and Gatti were offensive ass whoopins by Floyd. Great fights to watch him do his thing.

Gatti, with all due respect to him, didn't really belong in the ring with Floyd. That's like calling David Diaz a masterclass for Pac.

...

huh, i mentioned the Canelo fight and duely gave him props. But the dude was weight drained. Hardly a masterclass.

Gatti wanted that fight though, remember? Buddy was turning into more of a boxer-puncher and most casuals figured Gatti would land something big at some point in the fight.

The Hatton fight was brilliant. Mayweather actually let his hands go and ran combinations on his opponent.

Also, young Money Mayweather destroyed Chico Corrales.

The Emanuel Augustus fight was a barnburner too.

The first Maidana fight was a slobberknocker and the Cotto fight was very good. Those were Mayweather's last pay-per-view boxing matches that I truly enjoyed.

Closet floyd hater, i openly hate him, did you not read my opening statement. plus i mentioned i dont like Amir Khan as a person, but i am memorised by his skills and style. What he does to opponents is truly a beautiful thing to watch.
