[HISTORY] Lets get something straight about Mayweather

[Floyd is TBE]

Random blood and urine testing. That's what Floyd wanted for the Pac fight. Pac turned a 50/50 split because he was juicing. It's pathetic the HBO shills (Kellerman, Steve Kim, Fat Dan) in the boxing media blame Floyd for the Pac fight not happening when both men were in their primes.

I actually think Berto doesn't get enough credit. And, he actually kept Floyd on his toes. The dude came to fight.

As I say though, it's the optics that matter to the public....

Yea I do think it was a better version of Berto then last few but no doubt it gave some fuel to Floyd haters Which are many and worse a lot of them are media.But really with a lot of these guys he could have fought ggg and their would have been excuses if he won.(which at 38 and nat 130-35 I would not bet on).

The Golovkin fight made no sense to anyone, except people desperate to see him lose. A gut 2 weight classes smaller, at the end of his career, who didn't cut a lot and could make 140 if he really wanted to, against a true MW in his prime? That's how great they thought Floyd was, they had to stack the deck completely against him in order to call it a "fair fight".

So calling fighters out is enough then, got it. What happened to no offer was sent, just making noise etc? It's funny how the standard changes depending on whether you like the fighter in question.

Agreed...but Floyd calling ggg easy work just fuels the fire.

2006 called

They want their thread subject back

That's the crazy thing. Talking about Floyd is STILL relevant.

By far the best fighter since RJJ. And it's not even close.

And Floyd would be the favorite entering the fight. Both Jacobs and Canelo made Golovkin look VERY ordinary. He's no monster, but decent for sure.

If Floyd fought ggg right after Berto (when he was still in fighting shape) I have him winning at 154-157. Don't know if he could deal with the weight over 12 rounds at 160.

Would've been an ugly fight with lots of clinching though

No one cares. Get over it.
