    He's definitely one of the best but if you put him up against a Roberto Duran he gets beaten. Who i regard as one of the best ever lightweights if not the best imo.


    Some of the other top guys at lightweight in history he beats but i wouldn't say Mayweather is the TBE. He was a top dog at 130 but not the best ever.

    Bare in mind, with Mayweather's hand trouble he injects Xycolaine in his hands before fights and the Nevada state athletic commission are one of the few to allow it.

    Cashcow or not he could fly over the pond and fight Khan or Brook next at Wembley.



    If he did that just once i'd have way more respect for him.



    Kell Brook went to the other guys backyard and won a world title. He deserves respect. So many great boxers of the past did the same.



    I was a fan of Mayweather in his early career up until the fame took over and he never took risks.

    I agree. If he beats Pacquiao and wants to unify the division by taking on the winner of a potential Khan/ Brook fight, him doing it on hostile turf would be a bigger feather in his cap, than beating them in Las Vegas. But it won't happen.

    Pacquiao fought in Arlington and Macau for.... Guess: financial purposes.

    Yeah lol no ****. Every fighter fights for financial purposes no matter where they fight or when.



    At least it's not just in one place for the last 10 years in his backyard.



    Mayweather could at least fight a top fighter next in their backyard or a neutral venue just once.

    Wow, because that has everything to do with the venue discussion. Go masturbate or something, you'll get more exercise doing that than typing this garbage.

    Xylocaine is a numbing agent. In Nevada, you can't use it within two weeks of the fight.

    Mayweather doesn't care about feather in his caps, all he cares about is money
