Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather Is The BWAA's Fighter Of The Decade

[Divine Hammer]

How come when Thurman claims he was at 50% for the manny fight you ignore that and reward manny with a great valued win, but when Manny makes the same claim with Floyd you completely dismiss Floyd's win?

Dont answer.

because thurman has no documents backing up his claims. he had a very tough gruelling fight against which resulted in injuries.

BWAA...in 2020 is made up of a lot of glorified bloggers with their own inherent bias. There are very few "writers" for this sport, only paid paid shills who have very tribal biases towards their favorite fighters or promoters. Many of whom have agendas. Let's face it, this was more of an honorary award, like a life time achievement award that they give at the Academy Awards.

In the Lounge you seem ok but on NSB you're as moronic and hypocritical as a ******* ****stain.

If someone claims Manny was dirty because he won fights without VADA testing you will throw a fit. Yet you say JMM is dirty because he beat Manny without VADA testing. This is where you lose all credibility.

did marquez not hire a known ped scientist???? and then started punching harder than ever and looked beefier than ever hahahahahahaha use ur brain dunce.

No surprise guess who has a ton of $ going into bwaa? Floyd hated to see the general consensus pick Manny as fighter of the decade so here comes Floyd's yes men in place.

Damn how wack are today's boxers that the boxer of the decade only fought for half of the decade. These so called faces of boxing need to step up and stop cherry picking, ducking or fighting old washed up names and trying to fool fans.

with a bullet. floyd dominated 147-154 until he retired. wins over canelo and pacquaio look better each year, as both have gone on to continued success. canelo is a hall of famer. i was ther ewhen floyd absolutely toyed with him in las vegas. never seen an athlete that good at anything in person. and i've seen lebron, alex ovechkin, in their primes.


the only other fighter who can make the argument is andre ward, but he retired in 2017 and left a lot of years on the table having taken only 3 fights from 2012-2015. pacquiao was in decline for that entire decade. i thought he started to show signs of slowing by the clottey fight when he stopped taking fighting as seriously, got into politics, slowed down his output, started getting cramps, goofing around, etc. by margarito it was clear to me that the weight and the wars were catching up to him. By 2011 he was outboxed by marquez, and in 2012 he was knocked out cold by marquez for a long time.

best looking pacquiao i ever saw was in 2009 when he went down in weight to destroy ricky hatton. that guy would have been a handful for any 135 or 140 lber ever.

yup. floyd only fought for half the decade, his two best wins (canelo and PAC) have big asterisks also.

canelo was very very green and drained, PAC had an injury going into the fight.

BWAA compromised and corrupt like the rest of boxing. no surprise.

When Thurman backs up his fake claim people may take him more seriously. Coming on PBC channel with a hand wrap on saying he had a procedure doesn't prove anything. Like Manny and Wilder has done in the past. Also not mentioning it after the fight at all. like in this video. Notice he says he traveled around and stayed and hung out in Vegas for a few days after and enjoyed his moment. If he was hurt wouldnt he go to the hospital right away? Like Manny and Wilder had to do?
