Name 1 Prime A-level fighter that Mayweather has on his resume......

[New England]

He wasnt in his prime at WW, he was still the best. But not the same fighter he was in the lower weight classes. Only a ****** would argue otherwise. He was in his mid to late 30's most of his time at WW.

enough of you, kid. i mean really, enough of you. adults are talking. you cannot tell me floyd mayweather wasn't in his prime at welterweight, which he very clearly was, and expect me not to laugh every time i see your username with a TBE in it.

pathetic little fanboys don't even know they're fanboys.

[ironmt]

unlike a lot of these clowns i've actually paid dough to see floyd fight


but i'm some kind of canelo fanboy, i guess?

Your arguments are 100% accurate.

[QUOTE=New England;18000247]

stop acting like i ahve some kind of agenda, kid. i went to vegas to see floyd mayweather fight . i'm probably a bigger fan of his than you are. certainly i've inveested more time and money into his career.


canelo was drained for smith, but not 152 drained.

when you see a fighter and call him drained, say he looked the same against floyd, and then say that he wasn't drained



let me get you a shovel. and when you're done digging yourself a bigger hole i'll sell you some beans.

yea read what i said, he was drained in both fights. The difference in the smith fight is that he actually got bigger over the years and the cuts got tougher to 154. So the cut to 154 was basically as tough as the one to 152 when he fought floyd when he was a little physically smaller he was draining himself the whole time he fought in that weight range. all the cuts where hard for him

A lot of Floyd fans all of a sudden came out and makes thread about how Floyd's resume is the ATG and should be compared to SRL, SRR, Ali which is laughable, whom of which all three fought Prime A-level fighters and beat them cleanly.
definition of A-level Fighter: A fighter with exceptional world elite-level skills that had done great things in his career, and can hang on with other A-level fighters with great resume or building a great resume.
Definition of "PRIME": Prime, a person at the height of his physical strength and capabilities.

So give me 1 Prime A-level fighter that Mayweather has fought in his ENTIRE career.

Moseley - Passed his prime
Pacquiao - Passed his prime
Corrales - Prime, but lost his big fights, got KO'ed by castillo and multiple times by other fighters, can't be classified as an A-level with those reasons alone
Castillo - Obvious B-level
Hatton - Lost all his big fights, and lost AT WELTERWEIGHT to Mayweather instead of his natural weightclass, got a gift also against Collazo, got KO'ed all too easily against an A-level fighter in PAcquiao not really having a good resume, B-level
Dela Hoya- Passed his Prime
Shamba Mitchell - LOL
Andre Berto - LOL
Carlos Baldomir - LOL
Victor Ortiz- Even more LOL
Robert Guerrero - Lost literally to a cab driver
Maidana - Never did anything great other than beating Broner
Marquez - Passed his prime, got pulled from lightweight also.
Miguel Cotto - Damaged Goods, beaten by Margarito and Pacquiao

So........is this the great resume that you all have been clamoring for? Not having fought a Prime A-level fighter in his entire career?

There are quite a few resumes that garner more attention than they deserve. Some cherry picks? yes, but there some very capable guys on that list who Floyd outsmarted with his defense.

A better example would be Garcia who never fought an undefeated fighter before Thurman and came up short. You can only avoid some people for so long unless you retire, which Floyd did and cleaned up.

He wasnt you ****** **** lol. He was still at his peak, but not in his prime. His prime was at the lower weights. He still was better than everyone though, but not in his prime.

Oh ok . Marg was beat by mosley. How great, you realize floyd then beat mosley after mosley beat margs ass?

floyd wanted nothing to do with marg when he was on top. when a 40 year old mosley scores an upset win and is on top briefly here comes floyd to fight! that is the definition of cherry picking. waiting till the right guy is on top....and then striking! you can't see that? for example if ward fought and lost to a guy like gvodzk and then stevenson beat gvodzk. thats better than beating ward??? thats just good timing.

Wow lol. So mosley beats margarito and and kicks the **** out of him. Then floyd beats mosley, but all you guys say is how floyd ducked margarito.

Hey genius, maybe margarito should have been good enough to beat mosley and he would have landed a floyd fight. truth is he wasnt.

he was peak but not prime? are you ok sir? also you claim he was better than everyone but he never fought the best guys at ww so how can you make that claim? from 2006-2012 floyds peak(but not prime?)the top rated guys were cotto(prime), marg(prim), pac(prime), baldomir(lol)and mosley(old as sh-it). the only guys he managed to figth were 40 year old mosley and the journeyman. dont you think thats a pretty lame resume to have in the division you spent most your career in? this is why some people dont think hes as great as his fanboys claim.

His prime was at the lower weights. From around 2001-2005. He was still at his peak around the delahoya and hatton fight but after that you could see a decline in his speed and physical shape. By the time he fought guys like mosley, canelo, ortiz, he wasnt in his prime anymore is what i was saying.

Mayweather at his absolute best was around the coralles and gatti fights.
