    name me a HALL OF FAME FIGHTER that mayweather fought when they were IN THEIR PRIME AND NOT COMING OFF OF A LOSS.

    kosta tzu
    paul williams
    vernon forest
    he didnt fight he gets points taken away for that.
    he beat a damn near 40 year old shane mosley, a 34 year old oscar de la hoya who was beaten 4 times before he got to mayweather and got KNOCKED OUT by Bernard Hopkins at middleweight and then went back down to 154 to fight mayweather for a money fight which mayweather won 7-5 on my scorecard against an over the hill oscar BUT he DID win.
    people say that mayweathers BEST win was corrales but i dont think so i think his best win was miguel cotto at 154 BUT mayweather got to him after a catchweight loss to pacq and mr bricks in my gloves margacheato and he was never the same fighter.
    the other opponents were mediocre.
    this nonsense in sayin' he beat 23 champions well when theres about 5 "champions" in each division(wbc, wbo, wba, ibf & ring magazine)is pushin' it, that criteria only fools the casual fan. but an in-depth analysis it dont fool those who know. floyd mayweather beat LEGENDARY FIGHTERS WHO ARE GOIN' TO THE HALL OF FAME LIKE
    victor ortiz
    robert guerrero
    marcos maidana
    carlos baldomir
    arturo gatti
    sharmba mitchell
    demarcus corley
    zab judah comin' off a loss
    phillip n dou
    you cant compare resumes to Muhammad Ali
    bc Ali became HEAVYWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPION ***3))) TIMES
    he was BANNED from fightin' for 3 1/2 YEARS OF HIS ***PRIME))) and regained his title.
    from a "TECHNICAL" standpoint i'd say yes but Ali was goin' 15 ROUNDS MOST of his career, he had THE pre-eminent JAB of his time, BETTER FOOTWORK than mayweather, an unorthodox style in which he used his reflexes to doge punches and barely ever threw body punches and beat a MUCH BETTER RESUME OF FIGHTERS THAN mayweather. WHO ON MAYWEATHERS RESUME COMPARES TO M. ALI'S? who did he fight in his PRIME that would go on to be a FUTURE HALL OF FAMER?
    stop playin' mane mayweather benefited from HIS ERA and MATCHMAKING and the ability to CHOOSE fights based off of FINANCIAL INCENTIVES and wasnt a product of the MANDATORY SYSTEM

        How can you be the underdog in any fight if you're the best? When you're at the top, you have no choice but to fight lesser opponents. Let me explain it to you, If you're number one, the only best thing you can do is fight number 2, which he did. Or you can move up divisions...which he has. Plus wasn't he the underdog in the Manfredy and Corrales fight?

          Humility is hands down the most overrated quality by boxing fans.

          Outside of making a few chumps comfortable enough to go say hi if they see the champs in person, how does humility in any way make someone a better fighter

              And when you consider what he has achieved historically and how much personal effort was put into boxing , how is supposed to react to a bunch of BS fans that hate him , Id be arrogant too when nobodys question how good he was after everyone he faced he beat , and he beat the most HOFers and world champions in history , Floyd has every right to be ****y its easy to see why he would carry a chip on his shoulder when you step back and notice how much BS is thrown at him .

                  If you are an illiterate with money and women issues you will become arrogant too.

                    Floyd will never be underdog cos the best he ever fought was pac, smaller than him coming off of a loss to jmm. His claim to fame is beating jmm better than PAC and beating hatton before PAC.?
                    Let's face it, most common opponents people beat Floyd's opponents better than he did. When PAC destroyed hatton that is the time it was nearly a toss up on who would win between PAC and Floyd.
                    Floyd unbeaten record is his only selling point and nobody thinks he is anyway!

                    Take a risk Floyd and join Ali, srr and Duran and 8 division pac

                      Rich people are usually arrogant. Famous people are usually arrogant. Boxers are usually arrogant.
