Rank Floyd Mayweather Jr’s wins from De La Hoya-McGregor

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

Marquez isn't that high because he came up 2 divisions and most importantly since Floyd missed weight intentionally to have an advantage (can't think of another reason).
.

Hmmm maybe he was coming off a two year layoff.

[DuckAdonis]

Being there and impacting him are two different things. There was a catchweight for Porter/Broner and no one talks about it. Why? Because Porter clearly beat him.

And what is Floyd's best weight? What does this even mean? So if Canelo beat Floyd, would the win have been discounted since Floyd's best weight was 130? So any loss for Floyd after he left 130 wouldn't have meant much? Hatton at 140 wanted ZERO parts of Floyd and turned down the fight multiple times. He gets no excuse for that, especially when Floyd's best weight wasn't 147 either.

But hey it is your list, so have at it!

I'm not discounting the win, it just keeps it below other wins for me. It is more impressive to me if you beat someone at their absolute best or if you still beat them when you are not the boxer having the advantages like the fight Floyd had with Oscar.

That's not a good excuse. Missing weight is not acceptable. Especially since the opponent was still coming up in weight. If that was the case, the fight should've just been at 147. Then Marquez would have known what he was up against.

DLH was a gift, I had Oscar winning 115-113

Hatton - this was the fight that saw Floyd coming out of a "retirement" so that he could duck a rematch with Oscar. Ricky came up from 140, and Joe Cortez refused to allow Hatton to fight on the inside, which was his only hope. Took Floyd ten rounds and help from Joe to do what Manny did in two rounds.

JMM - came up two weight classes while drinking his own urine. Floyd didn't make weight for the catchweight and refused to be weighed the day of the fight.

Mosley was past his prime. Had been chasing a fight with Floyd since 135, but Floyd ducked him at his best. A familiar pattern.

Ortiz - he had to beat Berto to get his shot, and has proven to be a marginal B-rate fighter since he was hyped prior to fighting Floyd. Of course winning by cheap shot wasn't a good look either.

Cotto - also not at his best, but it was a good win nonetheless. I'd actually count this as his best win since Corrales.

Guerrero - see Ortiz

Alvarez - got him green and at a catch weight. Perfectly timed cherry pick as Canelo's popularity was peaking with Mexican fans.

Maidana - another gift for Floyd. Maidana was robbed. He was a cherry pick gone wrong, I don't think Floyd anticipated the fight he got from Marcos. Floyd crying about gloves and threatening to call off the fight that day was a b!tch move.

Maidana II - Floyd brought in some help from Kenny Clueless, cried about fouls and being bit, all along fighting dirty himself with elbows, clinching, and pushing.

Pacquiao - where do we start? Pac was not at his best, had an injured shoulder, and Floyd came into the ring fresh off the IV that likely masked whatever PEDs he was taking. One of his worst "wins".

Berto - do we really need to bother? He was already beaten by Ortiz and Guerrero, who Floyd already beat. Garbage fight against a human punching bag.

McGregor - took him ten rounds to beat a 0-0 MMA fighter. Should have never been a sanctioned fight, his 50th win was a glorified exhibition.

Mosley turned down a 2006 fight with mayweather.

That's a fact.

But you say Floyd ducked mosley.. get your facts straight

Not a fact. Mosley asked Floyd when he was coming up to 135 to fight him. Floyd refused. Stop believing fake news.

[CHOWWOKKA]

That's why he is TBE.
He did all that while he was out of his prime, sporting injuries to his wrists and not making excuses, and being the smaller fighter in nearly all of those fights. Didnt take a L or even touch the canvas.

TBE.

1. Maidana I - Only fighter Floyd fought that was in top shape (aside from Ortiz), Floyd didn't fight someone washed up for a change, and didn't have his personal referee protecting him like in the rematch, this is Floyd's best victory post DLH. Always the opportunistic coward, he still forced Maidana to wear pillow gloves, though.

2. Maidana II - Second best W, for the same reasons listed above. This time he brought his personal referee to protect him by constantly interfering, didn't allow Chino to make his fight. He did something similar against the following guy

3. Ricky Hatton - Forced Hatton to move up from his best weight at the last minute, had the Floyd Protection Services by the referee in full force, still a good W because Hatton was undefeated

4. Manny Pacquiao - Shot, washed up, injured Pacquiao who was a shadow of his former self. Pac's physical prime ended with the Margarito fight and his mental prime ended after KO6, Floyd won this fight in cowardly fashion, but props for having the balls for finally facing the man he feared so much. *****s will claim "if Pac was shot back then, how is he still beating the current WW champs??". That's just proof of how GREAT Pac is, even a 30% Pac can give everyone trouble. Floyd's still a ***** who deprived us of this fight when both were at their best


5. Miguel Cotto - Cotto was damaged goods and tenderized meat after Margarito and Pacquiao beat the **** outta him. This was a Cotto before his "resurgence" at the hands of Freddy Roach. Floyd got an unfocused Cotto with no trainer who was champion only because he beat a one legged ***. Good scrap, though



6. Oscar de la Hoya - Very close fight. an old, washed up DLH almost had him, I have no doubts Oscar would have battered that ass if his stamina wasn't just memory at this point. but still, a win that propelled Floyd to stardom.

7. Shane Mosley - past prime Mosley. Floyd ducked the fight when Mosley was younger, fought him after a long layoff post Margarito, and made sure he was off the sugar (aka the roids that allowed to be an energizer bunny against Margo) as a result, Mosley gassed after two rounds, lol. Props to Floyd for taking that big right hand in the second round, even if he almost had to rip Mosley's arm's off to stay on his feet

8. Victor Ortiz - Floyd fought this mental midget to duck Pacquiao, beat him in the most *****y, cowardly fashion I've ever seen. Shameful. Meh victory

9. Canelo Alvarez - Fought a green and weight drained Canelo. Ginger couldn't even make 154 at the time (he started fighting at 155 after losing here) much less a bull**** catchweight of 152. Canelo looked like zombie at the weight in. Floyd danced around the weight drained zombie. Canelo claimed that fight taught him a lesson: never fight out of your weight class again

10. Robert Bumrrero - a bloated lightweight who was never any good, and was only champ because the other dominant lw (like Marquez) moved up. another tailor made no hoper for Floyd, slow as molasses with little skill

11. Andre Berto - a washed up bum. how appropriate that Floyd fought an absolute no hoper in his farewell fight

12. Juan Manuel Marquez - Im tired of typing at this point, so I'll just have to say this is one of the worst cherrypicks of all time and this was the worst version of JMM ever.


13. Conor McGregor - do I need to say anything? This fight was an embarrassment for the sport. but a fitting end for Floyd's putrid legacy in boxing
