[The Tase]

I've had the chance to see a few top level fighters retire during my years as a fan and it's been interesting to see how reputations have grown in certain cases and diminished in others. What will people say about Floyd in 25 years?

"if floyd saved all that money he earned instead of wasting it, he wouldnt be living under a bridge right now with his dad and uncle selling m&ms and bottled water."

He was great but I never understood why he was afraid to fight Pac.

[AntonTheMeh]

they'll call him the goat, and others will say that broner would have ****ed him up in his prime.

[I Love Jesus!]

I still feel the majority of people who say he waited till so and so was past it, or he avoided real challanges, are people who didn't start watching boxing till 4-5 years ago at the most.

yeah keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better

[I Love Jesus!]

At the very least, they'll say he has the best defense ever. Like it or not he's the first defensive wizard to put slick boxing on the map, so people will remember him for his D. Kind of like how McDonalds is known for its Big Mac even though the nuggets are also great

so pernell whitaker didn't exist?

wife beater, gay fighter, 50 cents husband.

in 25 years.........."floyd mayweather? isn't that the guy who died of fear"

[onetwopunch]

Pretty much what they say about him now, He was one of the greatest in his era..but clearly not as great as those before him, Like the fighters of the 90s,80,70s. etc..

In 25 years they will say: Damn, can't believe that guy blew all his money a few years after he retired.
