Comments Thread For: Mayweather: No Fighter in History Had More Big Fights

[flyest1]

19 yrs of cherry picking against some of the weakest belt holders and to boot he is about to be exposed for a ped cheat ..The guy is delusional his fights were not memorable ..they were just exhibitions against over matched hand picked oppoenents .

Sounds like your idol Roid Jones Jr

Ray Leonard had two huge fights against Duran.

One Megafight against Hearns.

And another Megafight against Hagler.

Only the Pacquiao fight (and maybe Delahoya MAYBE) deserve to be considered on that level.

All of Floyd's fights will be tainted from hear on out. All of his fights will be in question on weather or not he was using PED's for that fight. Just like all of Margarito's fights are in question since he got caught with plaster in his gloves.

Idk about that...Mike Tyson would have to rival that imo. Even Oscar.

What does Jones have to do with this last I checked Toney Hopkins Johnson and Hill werent hand picked opponents with a fa orable style. Nice try though

One if the imps should tell us the prime elites Jr is talking about!

Tell us the defining fights that made him the best ever.

I have seen lots of fights and lots of fighters like Clay vs Liston or Ali vs Fraiser or Ali vs Formen or SRL vs Hearns Hagler Benitiez and Duran etc........

But just who are these greats Jr has fought?

So pac was one armed and that's a fact and if jr will do it again with pac on May 2 and beats him I will give him props but the statement Jr made that is the title of the post is laughable

Cotto is an all-time great (believe it or not), who got cheated once (Margarito), was oddly matched once (Trout), destroyed by Pacquiao but was fighting well before that point, and was NOT in a good place when he fought Floyd. That said, he still messed up Floyd's face.

Pacquiao is obviously a legend who fought Floyd 1-handed.

De La Hoya had taken considerable amounts of time off, and had he thrown about 5 more jabs per round, he would have won.

Castillo legitimately beat Floyd the first time they fought, but Floyd was admittedly injured.

Other than that, I can't call anything Floyd's done "legendary" as far as his opponents are concerned. Yet I'd still pick that ******* to beat most other champions in history. Why? Because he'd do what he always does: slow the fight down, create awkward space, take pot shots to make his opponent gun shy, and win a 12 round decision.

Heres the difference between you and other all time greats they all fought each other in their primes. You Sir fought a bunch of wash up fall of famers used catch weights to your advantage Marquez cheated at the scales , Canelo drained like a mummy. Had you fought Mosley Delahoya, Cotto In their Primes, had you fought Canelo at 154 and fought Marquez at 143 as specified , had you fought Madaina with out b1tching about gloves you would probably with out question be regarded as the best ever. Your wins against Mosley and Delahoya is like Rocky Marcaino beating Joe Louis or Leon Spinks beating Ali

He had the most big fights with no substance. Ali's big fights were way better. Chavez had tons of big fights that were usually entertaining. The fabulous four all had big fights that were better. Holmes' big fights were better. I mean, Mayweather's fights with De La Hoya(boring), Cotto(snore), Mosley(after round two, boring), Pacquiao(vomit), Guerrero(boring), Alvarez(boring). I mean the Maidana fights were good because of Maidana.
