Has there been a bigger waste of talent than Mayweahter?

stop making a fool of yourself bro.

The 0 means nothing really. Mayweather is the most frustrating fighter to me in a long time. ALL the talent in the world, unparalleled defense, unmatched ring IQ, and I do believe he has underrated power, he could have beaten so many. He could have gone up to middleweight and beat Pavlik for the undisputed middleweight championship. I have no doubt he woulda won that fight.

So many guys he COULD have beat, but all *****s talk about is how he WOULD have beat so and so. That just dosent cut it. The 0 has been the biggest burden on him more then anything. I believe if Floyd had lost a fight or two early in his career he would have gone on to become a much greater fighter. He would have no pressure to preserve a stupid record, and he would have likely taken the bigger challenges. Its a damn shame really.

 

your thoery is just as bad chavez jr boom

 

41-0

p4p number 1

6 time world champion in 5 different weight classes

Biggest ppv attraction in the sport to day.

Yeah some waste of a talent. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

You are living in the past. We are in 2011 when Floyd is no longer in the P4P list and is no longer the biggest PPV attraction.
The next time you write about Floyd, please use past sentences.

 

yeah the biggest ppv attraction draws how many buys fighting Mosley :good

 

i aint your bro
and i dont think floyd could have been any better than what he has become. If floyd would have lost a fight early in his career this would have made him a more aggressive fighter i believe and this would compromise the defensive skills hes developed. Some people dont like floyds style of fighting but hes the best around so it works

 

I corrected your post as it happened over a year ago.
I don't deny that in a single event Floyd drew more PPV but on a yearly basis it's less true.

 

Sounds personal! Just kidding!

 

Judah - Judah was talented, but I believe he pushed himself to the limit. He just ran into guys who was better than him like Cotto and Clottey. He just wasn't good enough.

Dawson - He still has a lot of time. Hopkins avoided him for a number of years and he didn't have anyone around him to fight. Could still live up to his potential if he beat Hopkins and take on guys like Ward & Froch.

Mike Tyson - Agreed. He wasted a good portion of his prime in jail and slacking off in training for the Douglas fight.

Edwin Valero - He was still a bit unproven. He never tested himself at the top level, but he had obvious talent. Don't don't what he would have became if he didn't hang himself.

Joe Calzaghe - It think Joe accomplished quite a bit. He wasted a number of years fighting nobodies, but he does have a Hopkins win. He could have a bit longer and enhanced his legacy.

Vernon Forrest - He ran into Mayorga. That's all there was to it. He ran into a wall he couldn't climb and turned his career upside down.

Floyd was in a position to accomplish a lot more than these guys, except for Tyson. He had the opponents around him and it's really a shame that he didn't do more.

 

for a guy who hasnt fought in a year.....he still has a lot of haters..... sayin hes this... hes that....but thats what you'll be known for...still talkin about a fighter you have a love/hate relationship...

instead of actually talkin about the sport of boxing ..other fighters..other weight classes...

just another testiment to how good floyd really is....

same goes for the the haters of pacquiao

its really easy to see who are actually fans of the sport....

and those who....are fans...only attached to popular fighters.....



so do what yall do best......

thanks for maury/springer type of show..on a boxin forum...regarding the same topic..over and over...and over..and over.....

































and over..again

 

he could of fought cotto back in 2008 when welter was waxing hot and won but he instead retired. he could have fought pac now and he has the skillset, styles and size to win but instead retired. two of just pass opportunities for floyd to become greater.

some fighters can do much more with just fraction of his skillset and talent.

 

Floyd was in a position to accomplish more and he did. :hi:

 

LOL @ waste of talent. :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

I agree with this post as it was written in past sentence.:good

 

yes he accomplished more over his career
