You cant say floyd kicked delahoya's ass. That fight was close with mayweather running around until hoya gassed. And never did floyd really hurt him either. I wouldnt say floyd kicked delahoyas ass. Even though way he talks, he seems to think it was a one sided beatdown
plus, hatton just got koed by a guy who used to fight at 106. And it took pac man 1/5 the amount of time to do it. And floyd still thinks hes the bigger draw.
Look, if what you say about non-african americans is true, then a lot of black fighters won't get any respect. But so far in this argument and the next, it's only Floyd by his lonesome.
About 70% of the folk on this same damn site said ODH was going to knock Floyd out, not just beat him but knock him out.. With "the first left hook" he lands. Gatti was not considered a one sided massacre or a non-competitive bout. Neither for sure was Corrales. Its some what about race and mostly about attitude and cultural differences. Nobody really liked Ali when he was on top. He was a guy America loved to hate. Yeah you love them after the fact. Mike Tyson was different. He was just all excitement and energy and he was entertaining.
So, as I asked you in a previous post, why did you feel the need to even mention skin colour? You could have just gone with Floyd is this and Shane is that and that's why people dislike Floyd and like Shane, and that would have been an extremely rational reason. Unless of course you wanted to make it about race so you could accuse Non-African Americans of being irrational, which is yet another racist generalisation :hey
Really....... I can drop names.. Pretty much any top black fighter other than Mosley has harsh critics. What, James Toney, what Bernard Hopkins..you dont say?
Everybody who watch boxing knows floyd is very talented. What haters really hate about floyd is he talks too much trash saying his the best bla bla bla but he wont face the top fighters in his division. Cotto-Margocheato-Mosley etc Yes he fought judah and baldomir who at the time were champions at 147 lbs but look at those guys career. They were decent fighters but nothing special. Until floyd fight and beat cotto and mosley ,floyd will always be criticized at 147 lbs weight class.
That fight was only close to PBF haters. Mayweather dominated the punch statistics. He staggered DLH with two big right hands off the ropes in the 5th. Your supposed to go into a fight confident in your abilities and beleiving you can win dominantly. If the fight ends up being more difficult then you thought, so what? Real champions adapt and get the win.
How many of those figthers are criticized on a personal level. :rofl. Not by what they do in the ring. How many people even have opinions about Calzaghe or Kessler or Pavlik or the Klitoris brothers or Hatton's personality. Or called them ghetto trash or insert the millions of code words. I am a Calzaghe hater but I have never said anything about him as a person...:rofl:rofl
He won't face the best fighters in his division, but in only 4 fights at WW, 2 of them were against champions. Mosley and Margarito are cheaters and Mosley ducked Floyd. So what's your point?
so if we were playing a game in "da hood" and i kept spouting of b.s about shooting 3's on you all day and dunking on you but when it came down to the game i played really conservative making easy close shots and lay ups you wouldn't be pissed? And if i infact did this in almost every game i played? or is this just on of those cultural misunderstandings because i am not black?
How many threads have been made about Floyd's personal life........................ Then insert any other fighter and then call me.
Eaxctly, If you don't like Mayweather's skillful style, and you rather skill deficient guys like Margacheato eat punches all night thats cool. It enteratining as hell. But the hate is based on who what you think of him as a person even though the haters don't even know him.
