Is Floyd Mayweather Jr a 'Living Legend' ????

Interesting thoughts man.:think

Can you tell me what is wrong with this era because it feels alot of these ONLY-FIGHTS-WHICH-MATTERS do not happen. I did not follow boxing back in the day because I was barely born but feel like those fights which were the most importand always came through.

Damn shame really.

 

its not the era that is 'wrong', its the money that has changed the playing field
with all the belts, no one federation, and many paths of least resistance open, promoters know there is a LOT of money to be made by milking belts without having their fighters actually fight the best in the division

this is a big problem in Europe, but in truth, its the fragmented state of boxing which facilitates this - no point blaming promoters if they have free reign to do what they want

 

He will be remembered as one of the best defensive fighters of all time a hof boxer and a top 20 atg by any rational boxing fan. Irrational haters like yourself who don't know talent and can't give a great fighter his due because he tooled your hero's won't but your opinion is irrelevant anyway troll.

 

Yes

 

Floyd is a legend like it or not. Regardless of what he does from here on out (50-0 is going to happen, he'll find the right guys), he's really changed the boxing game. He has more power than any athlete has ever had, and it wasn't just handed to him. Of course he's a cherrypicker, but history doesn't tend to remember those things.

 

if Floyd - pacman happens, the cherrypicker tag loses weight
Floyd still has one of the best resumes in boxing

 

If you go by Floyd's contemporaries, that is other boxers and what they have to say about his accomplishments, as opposed to "random internet guy" then he is a living legend.....There's no doubt that he is a legend,

 

RP: There was a legend from the West name Floyd that nobody could touch.

GP: Isn't that the so called health come first legend, the one that his health alway come first when they wanted him to fight the legend from the East .

 

Definitely!!!!

 

i'm shocked this question is being asked. greatest fighter ANYONE on here has seen live, (no one on here has seen better) one of the biggest athletes in the world never mind just within boxing. he has done more than ANY boxer and done it FAR better than any boxer..

so fact is he is a "living legend" even though truth is those two words contradict each other.

how can one be a LIVING legend, but if anyone is anything like that its floyd far and away ahead of all the rest

 

Historically, yes because 50 years from now nobody will appreciate that the fight back in 2010/11 would have been an ATG classic fight, but now is more of a one-sided exhibition for Mayweather. To me, it would reinforce the cherrypicker label because now if the fight happens it's going to appear that Mayweather was waiting for Pacquiao to show weakness...like Mosley...and Cotto. I don't even care to see the fight now because it's a foregone conclusion that Mayweather would dominate him.

 

Great defensive fighter but according to stats rigo is better and wlad ties with him and I can provide a link to prove that claim.:deal

And who's my hero please show me one post from the last two years where I said canelo wasent a bum :deal



Ps: He will go down as one of the biggest duckers of all time and fighting khan next isn't helping his already cowardly momentum

 

if that were true, the fight would have been signed already
remember, few people thought Floyd would fight canelo but that fight got signed, sealed and delivered pretty quick

could Floyd have fought some better opponents than he did over the past few years?
sure he could
but his resume is still formidable and it would be dismissive in the extreme to call him a career cherrypicker

 

Can't believe some of the **** I've read in this thread from so called boxing fans.

These *******s can't post a damn thing with substance to save their life. Mentioning Floyd's outside the ring issues and judging him on that! If that's the case then the ATG list would have to be cut from 100 to 30 bc tons of ATG have hit women, robbed, and some have even killed someone. Smh

Floyd is a living legend and is cut from the same cloth as this before him. He also has a good résumé as well. This site is infested by non boxing fans.

 

I'm not easily fooled by Floyd's bs so my opinion tends to sting a little lol
