    here comes the hate.........

    I like Floyd Mayweather, but am I the only one that likes him AND thinks he is slightly overrated? i know im gonna get tons of sh** for this, but it's true.

    He is NOT overratted. No one should have any p4p list without Floyd being #1 or #2.

    Floyd has beaten

    Legit top ten guys like N'Dou, Augustus and Sosa

    His Big wins
    Genaro Hernandez(WBC 130 champ at the time)
    Angel Manfredy(who was coming off a win over Gatti)
    Goyo Vargas(Former WBC featherweight champ)
    Diego Corrales(IBF jr Lightweight Champ and future WBO jr Lightweight and WBO Lightweight champ)
    Carlos Hernandez(Future IBF jr Lightweight Champ)
    Jesus Chavez(Future WBC jr Lightweight Champ)
    Jose Luis Castillo(WBC Light weight Champ and Future WBC Light weight Champ)

    Thats 4 fighters who went on to be Champions after there fights with Floyd. Both Corrales and Castillo are now top 10 p4p fighters. I thought Floyd lost the 1st Castillo fight, but he cameback and was flat out dominate in the rematch and you got to give hium credit than that. We all know Corrales is a great fighter and Floyd flat out destroyed him dropping him 5 times and making him just look plain foolish at times.

    Floyd deserves nothing but respect from hardcore fight fans. You may think he is an ass or whatever, but you cant knock his resume or his talent and if you try and do so your only going to make yourself look foolish.

      no u wont be hated unless u say something like my opioion:

      i like floyd..he had great boxing ability but dont think he will make it far in boxing at welter..there are lots of guys that can beat him...and i hope he gets ko'ed out of the rinf by-cotto-KT-Gatti or shambra

      floyd vs hatton..i hate them both but would root for PBF

      but much respect fot the guy...i dont think he as been fully tested yet tho..for anyone to say he's "great"

          floyd could be a bit under rated. most people have bernard hopkins pound for pound (which is fair)but pretty boy may be the most skilled fighter pound for pound there is.

            I have to agree, but when you talk about P4P you have to mention Toney

                I wouldn't say Floyd was overated at all, he has fought some amazing fights over the years and now has moved up in weight divisions again. There is nobody in the Welterweight division who will have an easy time with him. I like Floyd because he is always willing to please his fans. He stood toe to toe with Demarcus Corley to prove a point to alot of people.

                    Yeah he does, hopefully when he beats Jean Marc Mormeck and Kelvin Davis he fights some people of other weight divisions. I would love to see him fight Tarver or James Toney. I remember a few years ago James Toney was sat commentating on ESPN and he was calling him a bum. I think he could teach Toney some respect, they don't like each other and there is good potential for a fight between them if Wayne is sucessful in my opinion.
