Comments Thread For: Mayweather Hails Gervonta Davis As His Heir Apparent

[MC Hammer]

Please no more safety first fighters it's ruined boxing... Floyd ruined boxing.

You wouldn't even watch boxing if there was no Mayweather. Most fans don't know boxing outside of him, and there definitely wouldn't have been a PBC without the guy, because there wouldn't be the support available for it.

Like him or hate him he is the reason ESPN even talks about boxing now

Floyd is just name dropping prospects to stay relevant. In the hopes one of them actually becomes great

Maybe boxing isnt for you. UFC seems more your style which is good too

That kid looks much better than Jleon Love even in that short clip.

I found this, nothing really stands out but it's too little to really measure how good he is.

He makes the same mistake PBF does by lifting his head everytime he commits to a punch, but he is poised beyond his years and heavy handed as all get out.....love that dagger to the belly.....sets up power shots beautifully

I was telling my son that the other day,if not for Floyds reflex's he would not have gotten away with that huge flaw

Mayweather has also blessed Chad Dawson in the past...we all know how that turned out.

That's why when they slowed, he began to get hit with jabs more regularly

even though he does lift his head, once he got older and more seasoned, he always kept his chin behind a shoulder



Too bad most of his opponents were afraid to punch with him....everytime he got rocked it was because the other person threw with him or jabbed i.e. Corely, Mosley, Judah, Castillo

everyone isn't gonna be an all-time great but Dawson is falling off, but he has had a wonderful career. Wins over Adamek, Tarver, Glen Johnson, Hopkins is nothing to sneeze at
