    LOL. Roger The Black mamba was a little beyond average.
    He faced more HOF'ers than Vlad and actually won against a couple. :yep

    A lot of people who say he ducked someone ignores why.. They didn't fight so it's a duck.. The guy been #1 p4p for most of his career beating 44 old, past prime, no hope, bloated, weight drained fighters? Everyone else on the p4p list have a loss but Bradley.. What makes Mayweather so special?

    The 'duck' list also seem to change every few months except for the ones locked in by using 'prime' or from 7-12 years ago.. If he fought everyone people say he ducked, he would either had 0 opportunity for tuneup fights and have to fight 3+ great fights back to back every year, or have to add 20+ fights on his 45 he currently has...

    Its criticized because he is the best fighter in the sport lol. Whoever is number one in anything gets criticized if they don't follow the traditional path of number one. He doesn't. It's really not about who he is fighting as much as who he is NOT fighting. He could have already fought and beaten Manny Pacquaio by now, I believe he would win convincingly. Manny would be under his belt and would solidify his claim. However he chooses not too, for the money or whatever reason he claims. Honestly he could be done with Manny, setting up a big fight with Bradley or Garcia giving the people what they want. But he doesn't give the people what they want, he feeds his zero and his pocketbook first. He doesn't fight for the sport, he fights to be undefeated and its obvious, thats why everybody gives him ****.

    I'm gonna try to say this nicely. You sound like a complete idiot dude. Like totally oblivious.

    1. He chooses not to fight Manny? There are multiple sides to it. No doubt he gets part of the blame. But its not all on him. It takes 2 to fight. And in Floyd and Manny's case, it takes 3. Bob Arum included. Saying Floyd chooses not to fight Manny makes you look ignorant. Theres no truth to that what so ever.

    2. There are politics in boxing. Stop ignoring that. A Bradley fight more likely than not won't happen for obvious reasons. The Garcia fight will happen, and more likely than not he'll get discredited for that too.

    3. Don't say he's not giving the people what they want, just say he's not GIVING YOU what you want. His numbers say that people are tuning in.

    4. ALL FIGHTERS FIGHT TO FEED THEIR POCKETBOOKS FIRST. AND ALL FIGHTERS WOULD OPT TO STAY UNDEFEATED IF THEY COULD. You can slice it anyway you want, but the fact is. Every fighter fights for Money, and they fight to win. This isn't the AMs. They are all PRIZE fighters. Your favorite fighter, fights for money. It's a job. A career choice.

    5. If he fights to stay undefeated, then that's your opinion. Because he's not picking up guys off the streets and fighting them. he's fighting champions, mandatorys, etc.

    I don't consider Floyd a ducker when he was Pretty Boy Floyd at all! Anyone who says Floyd has always ducked obviously didn't watch him coming up, I been keeping up and a fan of his with since Friday Night Fights. I remember when he wanted to fight and nobody wanted to give him the fight because he was a threat and didn't generate the numbers. HOWEVER, when he became Money I have noticed a big difference. Ever since he got in to the drivers seat his fight selecting method has changed, his ego grew and with it his fight selections lost quality.

    Speed is hard to deal with for everyone. It just that the shoulder roll is weakest against southpaws.

    Manny is weak against counter-punchers. They disrupt his rhythm and eventually make him fight backwards, something he is bad at and leavs more openings.

    Marquez seems to have trouble against fighters with good foot movement. You can“t really land your combinations that well if the guy moves away after the first punch connects.

    ..... So on forth. David Haye was all wrong for WLadimir but he still lost a wide decision.

    LOL! You need a saddle, you act as if you have some insight that all the boxing insiders who have openly called him a ducker don't. Do you know how many other PRIZE FIGHTERS have said the same thing about Floyd? You need to get off this guys testicles and put down the pom-poms. He is the number one fighter in boxing, he has the power to make these things go through but he refuses to bend to make it happen. Fine...his legacy suffers in the process, his loss. He will most likely retire undefeated but will always have the blemish on his record for not doing what a warrior would have done. I know I can't convince his money clones who all of a sudden are so business savvy because Floyd says its about the bucks but believe this other fighters have taken less to make the big fight go through. Every sport you have seen it. A guy taking less in order to win a championship, break a record, etc. Your delusional from lack of air to your brain from Floyds jockstrap being tied around your face...get off the gas! When your the man you can make it happen, you probably never been the man in nothing so you don't understand what that type of power brings.

    Judah is a 3-5 round fighter. If all matches were 6 rounds he may have one of the best records in boxing. All that video shows you is that a slick lefty can get in their with Floyd and even make him touch the canvas...that's it.

    Of course he's slowing down. Yet, he's still fast relative to his opposition.

    I just rewatched Mayweather-Corrales.
    FLoyd was as fast as lightening, and you can really see how much he has slowed.

    Because these guys are bigger fans PBF than we are they are obsessed. I don't go on PBF's instagram or twitter but people like Ladyboy and boxing_disaster do.
