you want him to fight guys at their "natural weights" then say he should fight Golovkin..at what weight would that be..160?
money wise Mayweather vs Canelo/Pacquiao sells more than Golovkin..they bring a bigger following.
Pacquiao was healthy the first fight. shoulder excuse was a coward way of not giving Floyd credit.
how exactly did Floyd ruin boxing? expand on that. because the guy is retired and is still the most talked about fighter in the sport.
I'm not even a fan of mayweather but i agree with everything you said. Excellent post!
Some people on here are just plain ****** and write dumb things that make no sense.
You are a perfect example of someone who knows absolutely NOTHING about boxing. A biased simpleton with very limited knowledge of how the sport of boxing works but we are here to enlighten you if you are open to it. First things first, let's disprove all the BS you just wrote:
You say "Floyd did NOT fight the top guys when he was 30": That's a bold lie and I'll give you FACTS:
At 30, Floyd fought two title holders (Baldomir and Judah), at that time Cotto and Hatton both refused to fight him and this is on record. They refused to fight him at 140 even though he was the one coming up in weight so naturally he moved to 147 and fought the two guys I mentioned.
In 2007, the biggest money for him was Oscar (who forced Floyd to fight at 154) and Hatton. And he did beat them both.
I know you'll tell us about Cotto and Margarito. Margarito was a cheat and Cotto was steal not ready for Floyd so what was next for Floyd. He took a hiatus.
JM Marquez is the one who called Floyd out and you can google this. Marquez is the same guy that beat Pacman several times so if Floyd was avoiding Pacman yet Marquez beat and KO'd Pacman logic dictates Floyd can fight Marquez, don't you think? He did and beat up Marquez. The issue of weight which will be your retort is moot because at any weight Floyd beats up Marquez and Marquez himself said that.
After that, every single fighter that Floyd faced was a legit WW or MW title holder. Has Pacman ever fought a legit title holder at WW other than Bradley who is just not a good fighter?
As for GGG, how idiotic can you be? Floyd started his career at 130Ibs in 1998 and only got to 137 8 years later. He moved up in weight 5 times and is still too small to fight guys at 154 so how does your logic tell you that he is afraid of GGG. Why can't GGG move up to Cruiser Weight or Heavy Weight because that's basically what you are suggesting.
As for a "healthy" Pacqiao that's just another obtuse statement. Pacman was throwing punches the whole fight. An injury like that would NEVER allow someone to actively fight. Also, if he knew all along that he had an injury, why NOT pull out of the fight?
Pacman is struggling with fighters like Marquez and continues to fight BUMS (Algieri, Vargas, Rios and now Horn) and yet you think he can beat Floyd? You are delusional and probably Filipino
I don't even like mayweather but this is an excellent post!
On a side note Skip Bayless is a idiot and need his sport credentials revoke. Yes Conor has a puncher chance. But for anyone who think he can beat Mayweather in a straight up boxing fight is smoking crack and meth!
