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

[QueensburyRules]

His fights..,

Also if you want to on a scale of 1-10 how good were each win?

- -Almost never fights, so 1-5 with maybe a 7 for Cotto.

I’m the biggest threat to anybody at the welterweight division. Nobody can beat me. He knows that. All the fighters know that. It’s just the writers and some of the fans that don’t really know. They’re undecided. I’m really pound for pound the best. I am the best, right now. They can’t beat me. Floyd can’t beat me, Manny Pacquiao can’t be me—I am the best at welterweight. That’s why I have to go up to junior middleweight and fight people up there because welterweight is my division. They can’t beat me. I’m the King of that division.

yet both kicked his ass after this interview

LMMFAO!

You obviously didn't have time to read the article. Don't ask for links if you aren't going to take the time to read them.

Looks like YOU didn't read it, dumbass

[ruedboy]

Hatton was at his best ring weight, same weight he beat KT at, and Hatton was undefeated, you guys have really no understanding of weight.

Oscar was 163lbs when Floyd beat him and he was 145 when Manny beat him, work it out.

JMM was a great win because of who it was and how easily Floyd schooled him, JMM was weighing the same weight he was KOing Manny 150lbs, JMM Manny and Floyd have been 2-4lbs apart ring weight from 130-147. If you understood weight you can easily see how Floyd after 2 yrs out weighed 146 instead of 144, his body wasnt dropping the same as 2yrs earlier and with only hours to go he said fck it.

Canelo a great win because of how easy Floyd beat him, Floyd should have gone at 154 but he was honest when asked about the CW he said it will make the task easier.

I dont talk weighin weight, its 30hrs before the weight they actually throw down at, ring weight is the weight that really matters.

Hatton fought Tsu at 140.
Hatton at 147 had a career record of 1 win and 2 losses.
Doubt if you'd call that his best weight.

[PRINCEKOOL]

Ricky Hatton was a great win, people are mentioning that? 147 was not Hatton's best weight, it was not Floyd Mayweather's best weight ether 'It is easier for a fighter to move up, than to move down in weight class'. It always gets mentioned that Hatton was disallowed to fight on the inside 'But he was being beaten up on the inside by Mayweather during that fight anyway' great win.

Also the Canelo catch weight was nothing much, a mere 2 pounds when Canelo was fighting at 154 etc Canelo Alvarez maybe only won 1 round 'But at the time when I was watching it, I had Mayweather pretty much winning every single round'.

[Roadblock]

Why are you lying? Hatton KOd Tsyzu at 140 and fought Floyd at 147...you are just making stuff up. There is no reason to. I didn't discredit the win, I explained why I didn't rank that win as high as the others and you went on a rant where your whole point consists of a lie. Pretty pathetic

No they did not fight at those weights they fought at 151-153 lbs, they dried out water and weighed in 30hrs earlier at your weight, massive difference to the fighter.

In reality they were JWs fighting for a WW title, the only difference is they didnt have to dry out as much to make 147 which they both did easy, for both Floyd and Kostya Ricky weighed 153 lbs ring weight, for Collazo Ricky weighed 159lbs and said he would never fight at that weight again, he didnt , there is your division weight you hold on to , its only water weight, the weight they trade blows at is the real weight they fight at.

Read Hattons book he mentions all I just said and says how small Floyd is, Hatton was bigger fight night, not that I needed Ricky to verify it, you just got to understand fighting weight .

ppl **** on floyds win vs canelo but he was what 36yrs old? and he didn't just beat him he schooled him so bad it was a whitewash i think its a win that history will look back on with more favour that was floyd at his masterful best

[IronDanHamza]

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

Ricky Hatton was forced to move up in weight at the last minute? That's a new one.

Explain that one then.

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.

lol at this salty ***.

also Mayweather is a vastly superior boxer to Dempsy, both skill wise, natural athleticism and a far more dedicated and harder working athlete. Must be hard to swallow for you.

Ricky Hatton was forced to move up in weight at the last minute? That's a new one.

lol hatton consistently outweighed floyd on fight night. The whole reason he moved up to 147 prior to floyd was because he had a hard time cutting weight. 147 benefited him more than floyd.
