Genaro Hernandez: Another overrated mayweather victory

Come on, Hernandez was 32 and unbeaten at the weight.

floyd was only 21, he beat him up, stopped him, became a world champion.

hermandez was 13-1-1 in world championship fights when he fought Floyd

I think this win is pretty impressive.

 

Agreed! Just like Fury's win over Vlad. These fools try hyping wins of their heros all the time.

 

You're a ggg fan and you want to talk about smoke and mirrors?? Are you ****ing kidding me?? His win over chico corrales alone is better than anyone ggg beat. Who gives a **** what a racist hater like you thinks you went on record hating on spence saying phil lo grecco was going to beat him. Wtf do you know about boxing troll? Youre one of those trolls on YouTube probably leaving racist comments. Who cares about some butthurt pbf hater on YouTube?


If history wasnt going to be kind he wouldn't have won fighter of the decade dummy. His peers rate him people in boxing rate him and real boxing fans without agendas rate him. You don't beat hernandez chico jlc 2x gatti oscar Hatton jmm cotto mosley pac canelo and zab with smoke and mirrors troll. Skills aren't smoke and mirrors. If he was smoke and mirrors why was he never beat let alone knocked down? If he was smoke and mirrors how did he beat 90% of his opponents with ease? If he was smoke and mirrors then what does that say about the guys i just listed? Are they smoke and mirrors to?

You want to talk about smoke and mirrors look no further to your god ggg. A guy who was said to ko heavyweights in sparring a guy people like you said was the best mw in history. A guy people like you claimed would ko guys like Jacobs and canelo. Ggg is the very definition of smoke and mirros a guy who never dared to be great ducking a light punching ward, who feasted on bums C and D level guys and when it was finally time for him to step up he didn't deliver and lost to a guy in canelo who pbf shut out at 36 and in his 5th weightclass you ignorant hating fool. That's smoke and mirrors.

Btw if pbf had fought ggg at 154 he would have boxed circles around his smoke and mirrors ass and nothing suggest that he wouldn't have. Ggg hasn't beat anyone within a galaxy of pbf and pbf has beaten plenty of fighters better than him.

 

imagine being 21 going into a world title fight against a grown a.ss man who was undefeated at the weight and 32. Hardly ancient.

why can’t people be objective and call it how it is? It’s an amazing win an achievement. At 21 I was at uni eating pizza and drinking vodka.

and I’m no mayweather groupie.

 

I know! Just imagine my post with a twist of sarcasm.

 

You're high Jacobs isnt better than any of those fighters i listed. Ffs he isnt even better than Robert Guerrero who i didnt list. Guerrero was far more accomplished than Jacobs. Guerrero is a former top 10 p4p fighter jacobs has never been in the top 10 p4p nor is he a multiple weight title holder like Guerrero was.

 

It was a good win for Floyd. Genaro had a lot of experience at the top level and Floyd was pretty much stepping up to that level at the time. Genaro was not the fastest guy around and for a tall fighter liked to bend in and stay inside. This was tailor made for Floyd but it was impressive display of skills still, he pretty much retired Hernandez.

Speaking of Mayweather fights, here a YouTube channel that has some full PPV fight broadcasts from way back in the day.

This is stuff everyone already knows. Its irrelevant as is FlIVd.

 

Also RIP Hernandez, and best wishes for your family.

 

I hear this win hardly ever mentioned, aside from by you.

Maybe you're a secret fan and want us to look into this win in more detail.

It appears the loss to Oscar wasn't as bad as you made out. It was at a higher weight and Genaro then dropped in weight and beat the number 1 SFW in the world Azumah Nelson.

I had always dismissed this win previously and had begun to forget about Mayweather with it being so long since his last fight.

But since seeing this thread my appreciation for Floyd has increased.

Good work.

 

I wonder what the haters would say if Floyd HADN'T fought Hernanedz ??

I'll give it a shot :

'See again Floyd avoiding the best in the division just proves what a cherrypicker he was, Hernandez was the LINEAL champ at 130, he beat the man (Azumah Nelson) to become the man, unbeaten at 130 only loss on his record was at 135 to the much bigger HOF'er Oscar De La Hoya. Other than that Hernandez had effectively cleaned out the division. Easy to see why a coward like Floyd would duck him.'

It's pathetic it really is, OP go learn something about boxing before starting these garbage threads. Nice avatar BTW, LOL. You've got a guy who will be a mere footnote in boxing history once he retires while Floyd will go down as one of the modern greats.

 

Youtube AND Instagram? Well why didn't you just say so! With such bastions of boxing knowledge on your side, you can't possibly be wrong here.

What the hell is this? I bet you're imagining a middleweight fight here, aren't you? Mayweather barely even fought at 154, let alone 160. What would he weigh on fight night? What would Golovkin weigh on fight night? Does Mayweather have to keep going up in weight until he loses? How dare he retire undefeated! You realise that 154 is Mayweather's 5th weight, right? You understand he's tiny light middleweight? I see your point, I always thought that Mayweather shamelessly ducked Adonis Stevenson and Marco Huck, truth be told.

It was a stupid proposition to begin with. If he was serious, he would have moved down to 154, done everything he could to fight Canelo and/or Cotto at that weight, not insisting on 160, unification, drama show etc. and then pressured Mayweather for a fight at a weight he had already fought at. However, he didn't go down that road. He chose to go down the 'interview' road, wahhh they're all ducking me, it's so unfair, I want to unify at 160, everybody should fight on MY terms despite the fact I've not fought anybody of note. You superfans realise that in order to be the man you have to beat the man, on THEIR terms? Look up Mayweather DLH if you don't believe it.

It's a shame because he is an elite tier middleweight and he shouldn't be 0-1-1 against Canelo but that's all his career will be known for in 20 years, sadly. Jacobs is pretty good in the scheme of things, and he gave Golovkin hell so I suppose that's the level we're talking about. Terrible management - 'we want ANYBODY from 154-175' - yeah, really? That kind of posturing and pay day chasing demonstrated that Golovkin wanted NOTHING to do with Andre Ward, a REAL legacy fight, one where he would have been the smaller guy. Why would his management think they were the A-side when it came to dealing with Ward, who had signature wins and a legacy at SMW?

Golovkin's stock would have gone up immeasurably had he done everything he could to be the man, but I suppose we were all rewarded big time for his 'unification' obsession with fights against Monroe, Wade, Brook (at 160!?), Steve Rolls, a dragged up Martirosyan who had already been dealt with by Andrade, Charlo and Lara, Lemieux who is one of the most overrated boxers of all time, Rubio, Murray... these are all in his last 10 fights excluding Canelo. I see a fighter worthy of criticism here for their career, and it's not Mayweather.
