Why would an all-time great get a free pass? They're boxers, and boxers get in the ring to face credible challenges and to be competitive. What Mayweather did by choosing Andre Berto in my humble opinion was disrespect his fans and the sport. Berto is a class A bum, nothing more.
You can't ask fight fans to contextualize a choice that is so apparently awful. Only a dope would've paid for a garbage fight like that.Comment

Except every time someone brings up Floyd's choice of competition, you get defensive even though you admit yourself Berto is an easy fight.
There's really no need to bring up those fighters since they're not in the conversation. We all know those guys before him took easy fights as well. But you ALWAYS want to bring that up when people criticize Floyd since you're always on defensive mode and try to play victim just like Floyd.Comment

no matter how you slice it every great fighter has fought a slew of fighters not on or near their level...Class A bums don't win 2 major titles in one weight class....dude has 4 losses......you'd think his record was 50-24 and having never beat a top ten contender....im sure you've never boxed a day in your life, show pros especially former titleholders more respect bro....I didn't like that he picked Berto but Berto at least has credientials
just stating facts
It must be a lot of dopes in boxing because peopLe paid to see THEM ALL FIGHT
if its a fight, people will pay to see itComment

how am I being defensive by stating facts bro
do us both a favor and name one fighter who didn't face someone below their level.....just one
sounds like a double standard...they all have faced guys below their level at some point in their careers so why act like their is only one fighter that ever did it
Remember ODLH vs Patrick Carpentier...that was bad but it happens in boxingComment

Floyd's choice of Berto was naked disrespect. Why would he ask his fans to pay for an easy fight for him, line his coffers simply because they like him? ****, he might as well claim to be Jesus and start collecting tithes and offerings if I was dumb enough to listen to that. I see your reasoning though, because other fighters took the easy road it's okay for Floyd to screw his fans that paid records sums watching him school Manny? So he makes over 200 million for one fight but gets to act like he owes his fans nothing? Yeah right.
I don't like Floyd or any fighter enough to shell out my hard earned money for horse****....Comment

Clearly you're not getting my point. If you knew how to read, maybe you might understand.
You're asking my to name someone who didn't fight someone below their level. Well I never said that such fighter existed. You say you are stating facts. Well I'm not denying those fighters haven't fought lesser competition.
All I said was that those fighters (you keep bringing up) deserved criticism for those fights the way Floyd deserves criticism for his fights now. Yet for some reason, when Floyd gets criticized, you make it your mission to bring up everyone else who fought bad competition like that would suddenly detract everything that was brought up against Floyd.
Go back to school. It'll help you understand better. Maybe.Comment

[B]how long have you been following boxing???? It wasn't the fight I wanted to see but their have definirely been worse on the world class level
He doesn't owe his fans anything....just being real....he doesn't. He is the one taking the punches, low blows, elbows in each fight.... He owes his kids and his family for time he dedicated in this sport and took away from spending with them.[/B]Comment
