The case for Floyd Mayweather

TBE is a self serving invention created by an ATG fighter who knows he will never be considered the Greatest Of All Time and can't stand it. It keeps him up at night. Rants to his Hollywood shrink about it. His women know that the way to wound him is to bring it up and run they mouth. It's his pet neurosis.

There are many ways that I find Floyd to be an admirable man. A role model even. Imo, he should give this one up. Anybody with half a brain can see it for what it is. Respect to Floyd.

 

the glazing is crazy

 

Idk, it was close, ODHL was aggressive and came forward a lot, I have a friends that was at the fight and they also thought that ODHL won. Not a robbery at all but it could have went the other way.

 

I agree it's not a robbery, but public opinion has swung too far on that fight IMO. Oscar had a very good performance and gave Floyd a tough night; can't see a card for him winning, though l.

 

you can rate by different criteria.

there are criteria where floyd is the best ever, there are criteria where he's not in the top 20. i tend towards tbe.

 

Now I'm a hater? Jesus, Floyd fans are more defensive than women.

A younger Mosley finishes it in my opinion and that is widely accepted. However, perhaps Floyd fights a younger Mosley differently. As evident by winning/dominating rounds 3-12 Floyd is clearly the superior boxer.

I'm not sure how this relates to anything we've talked about, but - sadly - I think I see where you're coming from.

Every Floyd cheerleader thinks that anyone critical of Floyd must be a Manny fan. I am both a fan of Floyd and Manny. Both are ATGs and both did incredible things. I bought (w friends/at bars) almost every Floyd PPV from Hatton on and bought a few Manny fights (w friends/at bars). I supported and defended Floyd when the masses said he was scared of Manny for requiring OSDT and still to this day dont see why that was a problem...and I have a hard time understanding (other than hate or flat out racism) why people blame Floyd for the fight not happening in 2009....ESPECIALLY cause Roach admitted it was his teams fault for the first negotiations.

So, no, I am not a Manny fanboy nor a Floyd cheerleader. Both were great. Floyd couldve been KTFO by younger Mosley and I think Floyd outright loses to prime DLH. Sorry you live in a black and white world and cant understand how people can have opinions on things and not fit into your narrow fan dichotomy

 

Good. Continue not being a hater while posting paragraphs about retired fighters, then.

No one widely accepts that Mosley could finish Floyd? How do you even quantify that? What other great fighters did Mosley stop? Who has ever stopped Floyd, let alone cleanly dropped him?

Nothing you say is rooted in fact. Literally nothing.

 

Judah dropped Floyd and Mosley and Maidana wobbled Floyd. Sorry that being objective is somehow hurtful for you. Try not to take it personally...believe it or not this discussion is not about you.

 

Judah caught him with a balance shot and Floyd touched the canvas with his glove to regain his balance. Maidana caught him with a clean shot and Floyd walked gingerly to his corner as if he'd been punched hard in face. Wow. That's it.

That's what you are basing this whole Mosley KO narrative on.

That's not objectivity; that's wishful thinking.

 

Yeah, so, that's a KD.

He gingerly walked to his corner? Dude literally staggered backward and fell into the ropes. Wasnt no gingerly lol, but again this isnt surprising coming from you

I never wished for Floyd to lose. Happen he won his fights. Only fight I wanted Floyd to lose was McGregor, but I'm over that now and accept that boxers do exhibitions. Still the boxer v UFC thing is a carnival act...even if Ngannou arguably beat Fury

 

ROFLMAO You STILL say Mayweather could beat the living daylights out of a REAL FIGHTER!! after witnessing his breakdown when that FIGHTER stood before him to just ask " Why wont you fight me Floyd" ?
Floyd went ballistic he was so terrified stuttering & stammering he was so terrified he literally **** himself in fear of The Tijuana Tornado Antonio Margarito & the whole boxing community witnessed it LOL
Don't you remember when Floyd himself commented afterwards " People called me a coward, OK I'm a coward but I'm a rich coward" ROFL See the little weasel admits he was terrified of Antonio that day yet you STILL worship him ?????????? Give it up man YDKSAB do ya Olu the Troll What ever would Azumah Nelson say?
" Olu !! I don't know anyone named Olu " ??? Have a Nice Day

 

But Stevie Don't forget Antonio Margarito scared him so much he literally **** himself when he saw him. He even admitted afterwards " People called me a coward, OK I'm a coward, but I'm a rich coward LOL
Mosely faced a sick demoralized Margarito that night while Steroid Shane was juiced to the gills Antonio offered him a rematch when he was 100% Steroid Shane said NO!!!
