He did a cable access show out on Long Island for years until he got hired by ESPN. He knows his shit...If you respect The Breadman's knowledge of boxing, than you should see what he has to say about Max. Hint: He's a very big fan, and has the utmost respect for the guy.
    He is a "company man" for sure or more like a "yes man" & so is steven a smith.....I remember when max was on Friday night fights & he was actually good then got on hbo for the Mayweather vs. de la hoya & some people said Oscar won then max rips them and tells them Floyd made Oscar look an amateur next thing you know his whole tune changed....hbo and/or someone else got to him.....

This past Saturday night at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Mayweather secured a TKO victory in the tenth round over UFC superstar Conor McGregor, who was making his professional debut as a boxer.

      Hahaha...are these guys are trying to use reverse psychology to get Mayweather to prove himself against the young lions? Guarantee if Mayweather were to fight any of these dudes, he would train differently, spar more, and fight differently. What bugs me out, is that you have people who supposed to know what they are saying, coming out believing that the version of Mayweather we saw on saturday would have been the same version who fights a top fighter. I have no doubt Mayweather has declined drastically, but i know Floyd hates to lose, so i don't think he would underestimate a true boxer the way he did Connor, and he would likely be more prepared before he enters the ring with one of them.

        Do you really think so? I can't see him stopping either one of them and especially not Spence.

          Max has been a real f@g the whole promotion. He predicted Conor would not land a single punch solely so he would have something to criticize afterward. Is what it is.

          I do agree with you Floyd would fight differently but I think Spence would have beaten him Sat night. Thurman and Crawford, possibly.

              Quite possibly, but we would have seen a different version of Mayweather. One thing i notice in Elite athletes, once the hunger is gone it is best to call it quits, worse when you are nursing an injury and not wanting for money. Same thing happened to Usain Bolt.

                Floyd 40 and didn't fight for 2.5yrs. but the main difference is even if Floyd had been active and a few years younger, no way would he have fought Spence or Thurman the way he fought McGregor.

                    No, its the fact that he beat up a FRIGHTER & organization that was talking s**t to & about him & boxing. Its a victory no matter how you look at it. #50

                      Max is delusional, dksab. Floyd would not fight Spence or Crawford the way he fought McGoober. Floyd would not be eating burger king or go a entire month without sparring if he was facing a real opponent. Floyd would fight off the back foot and cruise to an easy decision the same way he did against Pac, and dumb motha****as like Max would be whining about how casuals seeing a boring killed the ppv market like he always is.
