    "Whether you love me, or hate me, you will pay to see me!" - Floyd Mayweather

    The marketing machine is hard at work. lol Not that this forum can go a day with out 30 new Mayweather threads anyway, but before and after the fight there are so many more. I wonder how much money this thread is putting into the man's pocket. I bet at least a few more people will watch because of this thread. If you truly hate Mayweather, or want to see him broke and penniless, then the best thing you can do is to stop talking about him. lol

    Cotto, Hatton and DLH were all close to peak. Marquez is a great win as well.

    Why you reply that when I didn't mention roy jones? Hopkins in his career has never beaten a top 20 atg fighters in their primes in his divisions before.

    I understand this guy hates mayweather but to say mayweather isn't one of the atg cause he never beaten a top 20 atg in their primes in his divisions? lol stop man. If that's the case then again Hopkins, Tyson, kostya, pacquiao, vitali, wlad, calzaghe are not atg either.

    So who is the fighter that he missed that is pfp a top 20 atg right now? Those guys were judged when it was all said and done, not while they were still fighting.

    For a start nobody has claimed any of the fighters you have mentioned is a Top 20 p4p ATG fighter like people are claiming Mayweather is.


    Just as a reminder here is the first line of the OP:


    "Floyd can never be seen as an ATG P4P Top 20 as he hasn't beaten any PEAK ATG Top 20 divisional fighters fighting in their proper weight class."

    What? lmfao. So you saying Hopkins/pac/calzaghe was never mention as the top 20 p4p atg? smh. You need to learn the history of boxing boy for real. Tyson was consider by a lot of ppl as the top 10 atg fighter. They were mention just like Floyd is mention in the present. You just have a hate for Floyd which you're not clearly thinking.

    Tyson just about scraps into most historians Top 10 as a heavy weight never mind as an ATG p4p'er

    Joe Calzaghe as much as I think he had a lot of under-utilised talent he won't be in any self respecting historians Top 100 ATG p4p fighters.

    Pacquiao will be rated close to Mayweather but slightly behind as an ATG p4p fighter but neither will be in the ATG p4p Top 20 list. Had they fought each other one of them would have made the list.


    I don't hate Mayweather. He's a spectacular talent but he has been picking the soft options for over a decade at this stage.

    In the top 20-25 ATG's there would be about 20-25 ATG's.
