Comments Thread For: K. Porter: Mayweather Avoids Young Black Foes in Prime

[tiliheels]

One knock on Mayweather's resume is that he's never gone against a pure boxer. Someone like Rigo, loma, have those capabilities.


The closest he has to one around his weight class is Lara. Could make for a interesting matchup, as FLoyd could end up being the agressor against someone with Lara's foot speed.

i call BS on that..u cant take the zab win lightly..zab is pure and got broken down..if u make the lara argument u could say he is zab like under pressure with the stunts he pulled vs canelo...i feel lara won but it was not impressive..floyd ****s the boxer and boxes the ****er..canelo is a pure boxer puncher..floyd took that from him...cotto is a pure boxer puncher as well...floyd took that form them all..no one give rigo flack for being the RIGO of the division..so why are we going floyd flack for being the FLOYD of the division? cant box yourself ya know..

What a load of bullshiat. Floyd called out Mosley when Floyd was at 135. He went to 140 to fight Chop Chop and fought a prime Judah. K Porter is crazy and just shouting to get paid. His wrestler of a son would never beat Floyd.

Can't stop laughing, this is so true.

Porter lost to Brook.

Nothing to be ashamed of, but that right there disqualifies him obviously.

The fun thing about being at 147 & 154 is that they can all say Floyd ducked them if they dont get picked.

So saying that Floyd ducked Williams, you're saying that Manny, Mosley, Berto and every other top welterweight in the division during Williams time there ducked him? That's what you're saying right? You do know Floyd wasn't the only TOP fighter at Welter when Williams fought there, right? And for the record, Williams himself said Floyd didn't duck him. He admitted that he wasn't a big enough name and that he wouldn't get the nod over more well known fighters such as Oscar and Hatton. I guess people will say anything to diminish this guy! Comical

Doesnt face boxers, judah was never that good so he doesnt count, floyd is a counterpuncher so ge picks guys who come forward and not that fast,, thats why he wont fight thurman, but of course thurman isnt "known enough" to casual fans

That's laughable. Judah was the undisputed Welterweight champion of the world and Top 10 P4P in 2006 when the Mayweather fight was scheduled.

Are you serious?? Thurman is not exceptionally fast and would definitely come forward to Mayweather. So based on your ridiculous statement....Thurman is a perfect opponent for Mayweather.

Lies he stepped to Mosley when shanecwas at 135 Shane people said nope not big enough yet, he asked Arum for Oscar when Oscar was at his height they laughed at the thought, Berto kept losing right before he would have faced Floyd and Williams lost to Carlos Quintana never deserved Floyd

Can any Floydturd tell me if Porter is wrong ? To me he's point on

[dc3383]

Correct! That's why Apollo Creed had to teach Rocky some rhythm, gotta fight slick with slick. Everyone knows that.

Clubber Lang was more of brawler than slick fighter.
