Why is Mayweather being under rated these days?

No doubt he a shook one for not making the big fights with Margarito, Cotto, Pacquiao, Mosley (younger), Williams, Clottey....

But now he is given zero chance of beating Pacquiao or Martinez.

He may be a ***** boi, but he has skillz and trains hard enough to give anyone a solid fight

Who gives him Zero chance against Pacquiao?

 

**** off

 

I think he would beat Pacman, if he fights him. But he lacks confidence.

 

nobody underrates his skills. the man's boxing ability is something to behold. It's just his lack of balls that people criticize. In closing, anyone who names themselves "soulja" is a complete idiot.

 

Can you not answer the question? I'm simply asking who the **** in their right mind would give PBF no chance against Manny? The people who underrate a fighter are the ones who validate that kind of absurd opinion. Everyone knows the fight would still slightly favor Floyd. He stopped being the underdog a long time ago.

 

His skills are amazing but dude is so afraid of losing that 0... he is scared or busy or on vacation who knows... if he doesn't fight 2011 he will just be wasted talent and a lost cause.

Hopefully he grows a pair because I love seeing his skills. Martinez-Williams- Pacquiao- Hell even Berto... Just fight someone decent.


He has a great chance with Manny... He will beat him easily...

Pac is a hype job. Good skills but not really tested againts good opposition we all know what happens when he meets counter punchers like Morales and Marquez... just cherry picked opponents his recent opponents.

Mayweather started the cherry picking and roach mastered it.

 

More people in here still back Mayweather over Pac so I have no idea what you are talking about.

 

The boxing world is just trying to punish him. Sergio beats the number 3/4 p4p guy and now ppl wants to place him second even though Floyd beat the number 2 and 3 back to back

 

Because his main rival is overcoming challenges Floyd shied away from, and Floyd isn't making any moves to face him

 

I agree, except the soulja part for obvious reasons.

No one is giving zero chance, but Floyd being scared and saying no urge are making people forget his skills and now alot more people are thinking Pacquiao and Martinez can easily beat Mayweather.

There are threads going on like:

Floyd is shitting it after Margarito, Floyd is no longer P4P #2. Floyd is going to jail on purpose.

Pacquiao did his job vs Margarito, and so did Martinez, but just because Martinez KO Williams and Pacquiao destroyed Margarito doesnt make Floyd easier, Mayweather and Pacquiao are in a league of their own and the fight would be tough for both regardless.

To answer the ? of the OP... it's very simple. "Fans" have short term memory. Many people will gravitate towards the more active fighter who is winning. In short, FLoyd is being out-fought 2-1 or even 3-1 in terms of fight frequency. He's not keeping his abilities fresh in people's minds.

 

let me ask you this though, whose fault is that?

 

He has the right tools just not have the balls.
