      Can't complain about Mayweather getting FOTD

      Made a lot of history this Decade

        It’s more than 1 loss. If you say accomplishments are all that counts, ok cool. Going undefeated is an accomplishment that manny didn’t achieve.

        Beating a top 2 p4p fighter is something manny didn’t accomplish.

        Going undefeated in title fights.

        Losses have to factor in somehow because the losses prevent you from accomplishing everything you wanted.

        Also, if I read some posters Manny was washed in 2015, so how exactly does he get to be fotd if he was washed half way through the decade? Is Alfred Angelo or James Kirkland also fotd material?

          To be fotd you need to be seen to have taken risks and not try get advantages. You gotta be succinct with these Floyd boys
          But these Floyd boys are so desperate no matter what logic you throw at them. Floyd never took risks, he only fought half a decade? Where does it stop? Can you only fight 3 years of a decade and be fotd or is that taking it a bit too far?
          Ok Floyd is Fotd if it means so much to you. For gosh sake.

            Beating an all time great fighter in their prime is something Floyd never did.
            Are you going to offer up an excuse or just accept it

              They could name Floyd fighter of the millennium for beating Adrien Broner, and Dunn and Larry will defend it.

                there is a difference between being old and being shot..Manny is far from shot

                  I just dont see how you can say him fighting

                  Pacquiao at 38
                  Canelo at 36

                  just those 2 is not taking a risk..that would mean you really have high standards for floyd...

                    You gonna admit you said, that a prime Zab Judah was Floyd's best win?
                    I never said Judah was floyds best win, I said it was a prime fighter he beat

                    Can you please back up the claims that he was forced to face Manny?? People literally said he was forced to fight Canelo to..only to down grade the win after
