Why do you keep saying everyone is from the suburbs? Lol is that supposed to be an insult. Get good at the Internet bro

It is when you're trying to be from that hard knock life. But you wouldn't understand, you're from the 8th mile.

You didn't get the memo son. Everyone on the internet is from the burbs and white.

More like all Floyd fans are white kids with skinny jeans and TBE hats on who pretend to be black but enjoy being cuckold since they root for a black American. According to dirk anyway

a round of applause for berto. he gave it his all and gave us a way more entertaining fight than pacquiao. berto's a helluva competitor and still a young lion. he'll be back.

I'm posting this on multiple sites. Here is Floyd Mayweather Legacy as I see it, and as I believe history will see it. Downplay it all you want, I'm a trained editorialist, a journalist, and have a MS in Communications, I'm not often very far off about how the media will view things.

History has a way of shedding unbiased light on a athletes career. Floyd won't get the best ever nod, he just waisted to many potential good fights on fighters that were past their prime or just not good. His habit of looking over legitimate fights for fighters like Berto, former champions no longer a threat, while slick in the matchmaking department, good if you want to walk away with a Zero, but will water down a legacy that had the potential to be something much greater. Although his supporters will refuse to see it, in terms of the historical greatness, he won't get TBE nod. He may not even get TBE lightweight. When you face a fighter matters. If I knocked out Ali today, no one would call me the greatest. Timing matters.

He just left too much to be desired. He fought PAC far too late, and even that is marred by potential doping scandal. At the very least we know without a shadow of doubt Mayweather created a testing system that made it far too easy to cheat, and didn't need to go that route.

If indeed Mayweather had no trouble fight at 147, there are not a lot of ways to explain away the IV situation. Why break the rules, why get the waver after the fact. Unsurprisingly, it was just enough time to clear the system in case of further testing.

Floyd using the same venue, same ref, and never actually coming to fight, it all makes it far too clear that he is not TBE.

Floyd would of done a lot towards building that legacy if he fought Brooks, Thurman, Porter, Manny in 2009, or GGG now. Even losing one of those fights and winning the rest would build a better legacy than what he may now be left with.

In closing he went out with a fart lol

Floyd was fun to watch at one time. I think Hatton was his last great fight. He is still a hell of a fighter, but not exciting any more. I'm glad to see him go, but for the next few years, there will be lots of talk that Floyd could still beat this guy and that guy if he comes back. People are happy to see him go, but in reality, he won't be truly gone until everyone agrees he's too old or been gone too long to make a come back.

Low blows? that'S a terrible reach, I didn't see anything low in the fight except the one Berto landed right on the cup!

When fighters are in close and u put ur arms up to protect urself but ur opponent still somethers himself into it and holds u behind the back with one hand and tries to hit u on the top of the head with the other one, this is not a thrown elbow, that's using ur forearm as a guard, an elbow is a foul when it' THROWN with intention of connecting and doing damage, not by using it as protection.

Dude, Floyd's a dirty fighter. Don't try an act like he isn't. He shoves his elbow into his opponents face/ throat in order to shove them back. You cannot push in boxing and you certainly cannot push your elbow into someone's throat in boxing to push them away.

Floyd destroyed PPV that's for sure. Fans are more careful now and the next runner wont be a boxing PPV king.
