If it was last fight you should go out beating the next generation.. Historically you retire when the young lion shows you not got it anymore. Floyd went out imply ing he'd beat Ggg n o special effects.n
      Actually, Floyd couldn't really afford to go out without fighting thurman as Floyd had reputation for cherry picking and ducking like no ATG before or since
      T.B.E. whooped all the fighters you picked against him....LMMFAO!

Sure, he could have fought anyone but Berto but by then he was done and just wanted to finish his contractual obligations. No point in going after a young champ in a retirement fight.

          I'm not even a Floyd fan but this thread is just noobish. Gotta be a sad dude to let an athlete haunt you like this.
          wasnt thurman floyd's mando doe??

              I didn't really know or care but since you asked I looked it up and found,
              "... Mayweather elevated to the then WBA ‘Super’ champion and not obligated to face a mandatory at the time..."
              Berto was apparently Thurman's mando.

              Like I say, I don't really care though. He proved he was the best of his gen and the guy was finishing out his contract. I was disappointed because I wanted to see him tested but I don't believe for a second that he ducked Keith, or that there was any real threat.

              And, for the record, I'm a Pac fan and not a Mayweather fan. I just don't believe in being dishonest about this shyt. It's embarrassing how ******ed a lot of Pac fans are with their Floyd hate.

                there is not hate. but if you think he didnt duck thurman then that's fine. i see it as a duck. but it's not that floyd is scared. but i see it as a harder fight for floyd at that stage of his career and he would rather take an easier opponent. im not sure why this only apply when it comes to other fighters but when it comes to floyd, there is always a reason.

                i mean manny fighting thurman now at 40, and posters is making excuses as to why manny only picked thurman because he didnt look good in his previous fight but floyd avoiding thurman 4-5 years ago, yet, he gets a pass for it lol.

                  Wondered where this random azz thread came from.

                  Then checked the calendar and realized that the anniversary of schooling of #48 just passed (May 2nd). The butthurt is still strong out there.


                  Hilarious.

                    You don't fight everyone that calls you out, just like Paulie M didn't fight thurman, a call out doesn't mean you deserve or you are guaranteed a fight.

                    Just like Thurman himself is doing now. How many people have called him out? Did he fight everyone of them? NO. You can't fight everyone. Moreover Mayweather has fought almost everyone, he deserves the chance to go out and rest.
