Why was Mayweather held to such standards from certain posters?

[Jsmooth9876]

I'm guessing when you coin yourself "TBE" you are held to higher standards than the average joe..

[therealpugilist]

1) they wanted to see Floyd lose. They'd say who they want to see him fight. He beats them and in come excuses. Wash, rinse, repeat. I saw this with corrales, dlh, PAC, hatton, cotto, canelo etc. They move the bar because he makes looks easy and even passes even the highest standard. End up looking biased and stupid when trashing may weather's resume then big up GGG who has 3 belts but never unified in the ring.


2) preference.... GGG gets KO... Has fan friendly style. His fights aren't long displays but short explosions. They bring in casual fans. The casuals make a high % of the GGG fanatics. So as long as he wins their satisfied. But expect more from other fighters


3) the best.....they knew there was no one to beat mayweather...he already had a hall of fame career in his late 20s and made it look easy. 1 truly close fight in a 49 year career. That's absurd. They can't relate

4)they can't relate and are idiots....some people can't relate to a black fighter who flashes money, talks **** and backs it up.They'd rather see somebody humble. GGG is Asian but some idiots like him cause he looks causasian and is a bad mfer. Couldn't care less about his resume. Whereas Floyd nothing he does will ever be good enough


My 2 cents

He has been held to a higher standard before his the moniker and even money moniker


When he was pbf he was so dominant that if he had a close round lampley, merchant and casuals had something to say. I remember when he fought victoriano Sosa . you would have thought the right was close for how he was criticized. Even after wins people whining


By the 05, he knew it was always a complaint if he if didn't take and L and thats around his demeanor changed.

Anyone who followed his career in entirety know this

Floyd himself said he was the best ever, better than Ali etc...
You can't cry when people hold him to the standards that Floyd himself set for himself.

When he was humble azz pretty boy Floyd he got hate too. Especially by HBO because he wasn't entertaining...aka made it look to easy.... Roy Jones got the same treatment

[Dean_Razorback]

you keep doing what you complain about

floyd is retired dude

[therealpugilist]

They made threads like?

1-He never fought any prime elite fighters

2-He never fought bigger fighters(even tho he moved up 5 times

etc etc

His wins over

Manny
Mosley
Oscar
Hatton
Canelo
Corrales
Castillo
Judah
Jmm
Hernendez
Cotto

etc etc

were all slammed and picked apart


but the exact same posters big up GGG and say only the belts matter??? FLOYD WON MORE BELT FROM WAYYYYY BETTER COMP and yet with Mayweather his title wins are ripped apart even tho he HAS NOT WON NOT 1 VACANT TITLE PERIOD!!!! ALL OF HIS TITLE WINS WERE WON IN THE RING!!!! How can you explain this? how can his comp be ripped apart and GGG's celebrated?

Instead of saying that just acknowledge the double standard


Floyd was a ducker and chicken the last ten years yet ended his career beating 15 champs in a row, yet GGG is a monster, the best middleweight in the world, top 3 p4p with a thin resume.

Casuals are big on GGG, he gets kos and has an exciting style. Some casuals like ggg

cause they think he is white. Lol he is Asian

As long as GGG win they are satisfied yet Floyd has fought world class opposition in half his fights and you guys (not necessarily u) have an excuse or complaint)

They expected so much out of Floyd because they expected him to lose by now

He boxes too good. Floyd controls fights, and he is that good.

I hold him to an unreasonable standard because he says he is TBE.

That really bothers me.

It's a matter of preference
Casuals like kos even if its no names(wade, Monroe, Adama, etc)

GGG has die hard fans who don't care who he fights. Say ward is too big yet want to see GGG vs Floyd


Top bad kids on this site won't admit it but their posts illustrate their biased n double standard.
