    I don't think that's the problem. I really have no problem people ranking morales higher than floyd based on resume, but when I see threads like who has more heart morales or floyd then see him Cheat, Quit in fights and get KO'd, they leave themselves open to ridicule.

    For example when small amount of traces were found in Berto's VADA testing the majority of ESB crucified Berto for suggesting it could be contamination. Then when the same happens to Morales and he is able to have test after test until he passes and people deliberately turn the other cheek. Then something is wrong.

    Because Morales schooled him in sparring and they haven't forgot it.

    Maybe because Morales is more of a warrior than Mayweather jr. :hi:

    I'm a huge Floyd fan but I love Morales. Why do people always get so butthurt over things rather than just looking at a situation and being honest.

    Morales resume > Floyd's

    respect is earned. morales has paid his dues long before. floyd still needs to earn his from the boxing fans.

    Mayweather is a great fighter but MOST boxing fans would probably pick Morales on who has fought the tougher fights and has been in more wars.

    Because Morales > void.

    And if they can discredit Morales it works in their favour.

    best fighter based on what? fighting 4 times in the last 5 years? avoiding competitions when people are asking for certain fights? unlike morales, floyd has played it safe that's why he can't earn as much respect as the great morales and your ***** ass could only whine about it. :lol:

    This says it all right here. What the **** does being in war has to do with anything. Gatti was also involved in wars does that make him better than Bernard Hopkins :rofl

    How much respect does floyd need, p4p number 1 fighter for a number of years, something morales has never done.

    Has Morales ever been fighter of the year? :lol:

    Biggest ppv star in boxing, boxing fans have tuned in to make floyd the face of boxing.

    7 or 8 times world champion in 5 different weightclasses no vacant belts . A guaranteed ATG and future hall of fame.

    Yeah floyd is struggling for respect :lol:

    Either way Morales will have more respect than Mayweather.
    Inactivity is also with it.
