Comments Thread For: Mayweather: I'm Athlete of The Decade - NOT LeBron James

[j.razor]

For someone that was incredibly gifted, the best fighter of his era, achieved so much, made so much money and will go down as a great...Floyd is incredibly insecure.

Facts aint "insecure"

[j.razor]

You know you are NOT the athlete of the decade when you have to claim that you are.

LeBron didn't get to pick which teams and players he played against either...

You just trying to say that a man should "Shut up & dibble" but in this case box. Lebron also has help cuz he IS on a TEAM

Most Insecure Athlete of the Decade.

You guys are the insecure ones cuz ya'll can't even say the truth.

I was comparing crowning achievements. There was nobody at 147 that anyone would have picked to beat Mayweather not named Pacquiao, regardless of age (and that's still true today unless you get hard for Crawford). The age thing really makes no sense either, because Mayweather is 2 years older than Pacquiao, and has been a boxer far longer. Ali getting knocked out doesn't make him any less great. That's one of the dumber criticisms among so called boxing fans IMHO. Pacquiao had been KO'd twice as a poor malnourished kid, long before we ever cared about his ascent to greatness. It also took Marquez 4 tries to get that KO, and he's still losing the series. Pacquiao is #1 at welterweight, 5 years after already being allegedly old and washed up, so that should tell you something about him. James' numbers against the 2016 Warriors are comparable to the Pacquiao win, because there wasn't a better horse to beat in either case.

Manny lost to Marquez in ALL of their fights, Bradly in the 1st fight, Jeff Horn & I also had Keith beating Manny....

None of his reasons were remotely relevant. 1996 to 2020, he stopped in 2017 with McGregor. His salary means nothing, abd not being with any company means no one wants to deal with you. Serena Williams won a tournament pregnant and has been the most dominant athlete in her craft with no competitor close. I think she could've won over LBJ but certainly not Floyd

Floyd beats them all.

They should have had a cross-sport competition. Let Floyd play a little one on one against Lebron on the court, then let Lebron put on the gloves and get in the ring with Floyd. My money is on Lebron for both.

Floyd is nowhere close to Lebron in popularity or positive influence over their respective sport.

What's the truth? This guy retired from the sport yet he's still there jumping up and down insisting to the world that he's not only the best fighter of all time (farcical enough), but the best athlete of the decade. He's not that either, but, even if he was, why not let the world say so instead? Its beyond pathetic that he still needs to thump his chest and toot his own horn into his 40's. Floyd Mayweather is the most insecure athlete I have ever observed.

Love how Floyd thinks 24 years is a decade.

Funny how you putting words in the man's mouth....

[j.razor]

Lol @ Mayweather. Sorry bruh, boxing hasn't been mainstream for awhile now and in boxing you get to choose who you fight. Unilke in most other sports you have to play the best every year to prove yourself. They got it right, LeBron James is rightful Athlete of the Decade.

Floyd DID fight the best out there

[j.razor]

Floyd ur corny. U haven't boxed an ACTUAL BOXER since Andre Berto in 2015. All your fights were hand picked since the early 2000's. A Weight drained Corrales? Victoriano Sosa? Henry Bruseles? Phillip N'dou? Sharmba Mitchell when he was way past his best? Old, coked out fishnet oscar? Slow, plodding child rapist Carlos Baldomir? Slow basic Robert Guerrero? An old, jittery hand shaking shane mosley? Hard charging, face first Ricky Hatton? Cotto after Margarito beat his brains in already? Dried out weight drained canelo? On and on and on.

You making b!tch excuses after b!tch excuses, FOH with that dumb shet. Floyd fought & beat everyone & it has you super salty
