    Floyd fights nothing but reigning champions coming off their best wins, so why Floyd haters keep saying he should fight guys ranked 7 -10 in the welterweight division. It should be clear by now if you're not a title holder coming off a great win you not getting a Floyd fight.

    They're *******s.

    You don't have to pay much attention to them

    Fact: Faced a dozen of HOF fighters if not more.

    23-0 in world title fights

    11 time world world champion spanning 5 divisions

    46-0

    Top 20-30 ATG

    Never knocked down

    Mayweather needs to defend his undefeated streak at Wrestlemania against Brock Lesnar.

    "Why he waited to Brock was out his prime"

    "He waited until Brock went to UFC to fight him"

    "He didn't fight Brock when Brock was dominating"

    The only one who was able to beat him was Maidana .. and he actually won that fight. This was a robbery.

    Which atg did mayweather beat that was on their prime or near enough that it was considered a great matchup

    Hatton is B level
    Castillo was already shot, and Castillo won anyway

    Maidana is C level, Floyd has no legs anymore that's the only reason it was a fight

    Floyd in his prime eats maidana for breakfast

    A guy like maidana you keep in the centre of the ring and make him swing for air all night awhile you pot shot

    Floyd's one of the best I've seen but his competition leaves something to be desired. Aside from corrales and canelo, who I was dead wrong about, i don't remember a matchup where I thought "holy **** he might lose." I'm not blaming him only for this I have no intimate knowledge of why fights against prime guys never happened, but the reality is they didn't.

    Ricky Hatton is a top 50 ATG.


    The Big Show is an ATG in WWF too.

    Everyone has a chance but Floyd doesn't usually face guys who have styles that pose problems for him. Miadana was a big surprise because he's usually NOT a high volume pressure fighter like he was this past Saturday. But to say Floyd hasn't faced anyone who had a chance is crazy talk.....Everyone has a chance and Floyd is known to face bigger guys that outweigh him by 17 lbs. Floyd pics guys who are usually coming off a big win.....but they don't always have to be a belt holder....Robert wasn't a champion at welterweight if I'm not mistaken....
