Can we agree that Floyd Mayweathers last 5 years of his career is overrated

    Mayweather's prime has been 147.

    The difference is, Mayweather is SUPPOSED TO BE A GREAT FIGHTER.

    Great fighters are supposed to do great things. Roberto Duran beat Iran Barkley who had beaten Tommy Hearns for the middleweight championship.

    But Mayweather is just an ordinary boxer. Truth is, he's been carefully matched and always has a home advantage, referees (Cortez, Bayless) and judges (for the Castillo fight) there to help out when needed.

    And he's a boring, safety-first boxer who just goes for UDs (unless he sees the chance for a sucker punch).

      Divine Hammer saying these fighters were no longer threats but he picks them to beat Mayweather.

        hahahahahaha of course i was rooting for pac. i will always root for REAL HEROES. deep down in my heart i hoped, prayed and wanted to believe that manny could beat up floyd. i willed myself to believe it could be true and that he could pull off one last great performance. it didn't change the fact that i knew he was completely past it and not the same pac of 2009/10. nice try u punk. kind of sad u had to do this type of digging because i'm completely pwning u here.

        again just face it floyd NEVER BEAT ANY ELITE FIGHTER IN THEIR PRIME. that's the real argument that u're failing at.

          Soo, how does that translate for Manny with DLH, Hatton, Mosley, Cotto etc?

            147 is when you first saw him fight, you mean.

            Because he was faster, quicker, had more power, threw more punches, had size advantages, took more risks, better offensively... at the lower weights.

            Its either you never saw those fights OR you have clue what the term "prime" means. Which is it?

              Yep Floyd resume has no dam substance it's a joke like larrys threads, going to love how the boxing historians are going to pick his career a part for many generations or he will be forgotten like jack Johnson, almost feel sorry for Larry but he will have mays balls to suck on

                  Divine Hammer who says Pacquiao, Cotto, Canelo, Mosley, Maidana weren't threats and discredits the wins, wanted Mayweather to fight Brandon Rios because it would be "a good, tough fight for him".

                    Diego Corrales is Floyds best win and performance, imo.
