A cherry pick for Mayweather is a tough fight for anyone else in his division. Nobody @ 154 will beat Alvarez as easily Cotto is still a hard fight for anyone Noone at welter beats Marquez or Guerrero as easily and it took a loss and a draw for a guy like Pacquiao to even consider fighting Mosley. I'll admit I wish Mayweather was easier to deal with then we might have got the Pacquiao fight earlier but when you've been top 10 in the sport since 98' you earned the right to get what you want. The only real opponents he could have fought that would do anything as far as legacy is Pacquiao and Tyszu. I don't know why the Tyszu fight didn't happen (Sho vs HBO?) The Pac fight Mayweather only had two real demands drug testing and eventually more money Pacquiao and his team had dozens of excuses so it is what it is to me anyone else you can mention is just talking trash.
Because he's mainstream just like pacquiao. Boxing fans are like fans of jazz. Once they gain mainstream popularity it's like they somehow sold out to true boxing fans or something.
That's a fair point. However, all of these factors speak volume. He is a shitty person and if you don't see that, you are a blind homer/wanna be criminal who shouts "Money Team" every time Pacquiao's name is dropped. I'm not accusing you of this, I'm speaking about 50-75% of his fanbase. There can be intelligent Floyd fans. However, he is just not a good person. That was my point. Excellent boxer though.
C'on, man. We all know why he's dissed so much ~ the guy has attitude problems and his lack of gentlemanly comportment is unbecoming. No question he's the best in the ring. But pugilism is a sport for gentlemen of character. He needs to polish his image as well as he polishes his boots. When that happens people will take a liking to him.
A cheery pick fight for Mayweather is an ATG win for *****s atsch. Floyd to Haymon: If the dumb *****s keep buying my cherry pick fights, keep cherry picking the easiest fight for me. If they like eating ****, we gonna keep feeding the ****. Floyd: Eat my ****. *****s: OKatsch
There is no one around everyone will considered an ATG win. Honestly is a little sad though currently the Undisputed JWW champ Garcia and the WBO WW champ Bradley have proven themselves at a higher level then guys like Margarito and Williams yet there not defining wins At this point its about the accomplishments beating the #1 rated JMW Champ(x.2 one a HOFer the other an unbeaten unified Champ) the only fighter to universally beat an ATG in Marquez (who would later go on to give tough fights to Bradley & Pacquiao twice the second by a resounding KO also the only fighter Marquez has refused to fight twice) beating Mosley (coming of beating someone you consider a defining fight by embarassing KO)(SSM 1st fight in 12 months PBF 2nd fight in 2 yrs) Quite honestly the weakest fighters he has fought since he returned are on a similar or higher level than anyone you can name but Pacquiao & Tyszu I put more stock in Guerrero being a 6-time paper Champ in 4-divisions than Margarito being a paper champ at welter then getting caught cheating and KO'd in every fight after once he got an actual LEGIT win & Ortiz beating unbeaten champ Berto is better than any win williams had pre 10
