    I don't doubt some still hated him from a decade before but I feel like they were a tiny minority by the exhibition friendly period of Ali's career.
    Ok I got you.

      Before I waste my time let me ask you one super simple question that you should be able to understand.

      Is this an apples to apples comparison? NO

      NOT EVEN IN THE SLIGHTEST.

      So let me ask you a question Big Dunn so I can see how much of my time you feel like wasting today.

      What exactly is Floyd "exhibiting " against a legit nobody?

      Another question for you.

      Does your p.ussy hurt?
      You don’t seem to be able to articulate how Floyd has hurt the sport.

      You made the claim, you should be able to tell us why and how.

      The fact you didn’t answer the question but called me names suggests you can’t back your point up with anything rational or coherent.

      It’s an exhibition. As with any exhibition in any sport he will be participating in the sport but it will not count for anything official. No different than an exhibition in football or basketball in the preseason.

      Now how exactly is Floyd hurting the sport? Did Ali/inoki hurt the sport? Did Floyd/Conor hurt the sport?

      If so, please explain why.

        Ali fought a Japanese Wrestler named Antonio Inoki in 1976. He fought NFL athlete Lyle Alzado in 1979. He tried to fight Wilt Chamberlain in the 70's. All of this during his career.






        We should ignore them. Floyd's career has been spectacular, he's retired as far as legacy making fights goes, he can do what ever the hell he wants now and if fighting UFC stars, YouTube stars and Japanese children nets him silly money then who blames him.

        I fkking hate Floyd Mayweather but I have zero issues with or see nothing wrong with what he's doing.

            This is what I'm beginning to realise by some of the absolutely absurd comments I've read on here by so called boxing fans.

              That makes it worse, genius.

              On the other hand, I'm surprised you haven't killed yourself after a prime Loma lost to a green asthmatic 23 year old. It's great to see you, stay strong!

                    Is the fight v Paul an exhibition or a pro fight?

                      Did Ali hurt the sport like Floyd did and turn it into the circus it is today? Fat chance. Oh theres a reason but it can't be Floyd because you can't criticize him. Hes perfect like his record. 50-0.

                      .
                      .

                      .

                      He didnt beat those women either. They're lying. They just wanted his money. Floyd perfect dont judge him.
                      You shouldnt be talking about psy youre crying like a female, its a BS match not even worth talking about.
