at 44-0, does Floyd Mayweather Jr. deserve credit for never being upset?

    For stylistic reasons, I think it isn't a 100% certainty that the fab 4 wouldn't come up short against FMJ's resume. If his chin held up, Judah could have troubled Duran and Hagler.
    Castillo lost. Deal with it. FMJ didn't struggle with Oscar. He didn't almost get KO'd by Mosley. He got popped, and by the end of the round, was walking Mosley down.
    :lol:

    Well considering Duran never knocked out a great fighter in his career I doubt he would stop Delahoya in one. Which other greats did Duran knockout?

    Any undefeated record, at that level, deserves credit. With that being said, analyzing May's abilities and his resume, it makes it easier to understand why he's undefeated.

    Why did you ask him that. All he's going to say is "8-4" like rest of the chumps. He's never seen the match.

    He also hasn't seen the fight with Oscar if he thought it was a close bout. :dead

    It was a 9-3 demolition.

    He's a Mattard and knows **** all about boxing.

    Obviously not just anyone can accomplish something like that. Only talent can get you that far and yes he has fought some good opposition. Missed the train on a huge career defining fight but there's been a few of those in history

    nice troll attempt but you do realize you're insulting mexican greats as well by saying this right? kinda backfired, I'll take it from now on that you consider Castillo and Corrales bums. :hi::hi:

    Nope because 44-0.

    "Couple points" equates to never seen it. Don't lie to yourself. You know **** all about boxing.

    :good

    Matthyse schooled by Judah/Devon
