Does Mayweather deserve criticism for how relatively little he fought?

    So Wangheng has 52 wins and an undergraduate degree.


    And he is only 33.

    Floyd should be vilified for his laziness both academically and in the ring. LOL.
    So he was accused of running and being the best defense noone could catch him VERY LAZY........LOOK AT HIS SUCCESSFUL CAREER IN THE RING UNDEFEATED, what does his academics have to do with BOXING he fought more champions than ANYONE and was 100% UNBEATEN.
    DAMN ESAU

      no, 50 fights is a lot in this era. he was a world class fighter in the 90's.

      he usually fought 2x a year on ppv when he could. you can't fight more than that on ppv, or at least they never try.

        Floyd ducked both those fighters. And he was still ducking Cotto long after he left Top Rank.

        Cotto ain't gonna retire me, I'ma retire from boxing lol


        Floyd was going to take the same test Pac was.

        And Floyd made cotto do the funky chicken dance at 154 in the 12th.

          1. So?

          2. He got a good shot in the 12th. Mayweather knew Cotto was going to press hard, and he took advantage of it to land a hard blow. Cotto wasn't actually hurt, though. More like off balance from the force. Kept coming toward Mayweather. Personally, I still had Cotto winning that fight. Thought it was much closer and more competitive than what the media made it out to be, but that's just my opinion.

          Even had it been a Mayweather shutout, that was nowhere near the same Cotto as pre-Margarito. Mayweather ducked the real Cotto.
