Has there been a bigger waste of talent than Mayweahter?

It does not mean anything if he does not face the best.
Chavez JR is also undefeated in more than 40 fights. Does it mean anything ?

 

there are bigger wastes, but he is a big waste...

 

So name me the fighters who can do everything he has done in his career?

 

He would have a few loses in his record if he had tried to meet big challenges. His career may have been shortened by facing the best, therefore it is hard to say.

 

DLH, Trinidad, and Pac surpassed Floyd.

 

Mayweather is greater then DLH and far past Trinidad. PAcquiao is ahead of Floyd, but then again, Floyd has beaten more champions.

 

Mike Tyson was.

A ***** like Mayweather proclaiming to be the greatest of all time ranks up there though.

 

Do your research Floyd has not faced the quality of opponents that DLH has. Who do you think have earned the most money ?

 

Good point! We almost forgot he was 41-0. Geez, hard to believe if he wins 4 more fights he'll have the same record as Paul Spadafora, who judging by his record is obviously BETTER than Floyd Mayweather!

 

Trinidad and DLH for yrs faced comp that they were bigger than. Then towards the end they started to face comp with the size advantage.

Mayweather for a good potion of his career was the smaller man. He fought at a weight class above what was necessary from 135-154. Even Pacquiao stayed at 130 while re hydrating to 147 on fight nights. Pac could have moved up in weight yrs before he actually did and tested himself vs heavier guys earlier.

There aren't to many guys who can continually fight guys giving up the weight and size advantage throughout there career while moving up higher and higher in weight yet still win while also facing belt holders.

Reguardless of all that I rest my case with your response because at the end of the day you still named hall of famers.

 

:good

 

When it comes to us boxing nerds being able to rate him among the all time greats, yes.

When it comes to him having all that ****in money, that sweet mansion and a beautiful fiance, **** no. He put his talent to goooood use lol

 

Bahhh..... I wouldn't trade those fights with Morales, Barrera and JMM for anything. He tested himself soon enough but not before he finished business with MAB ,Terrible' and JMM for the time being. Those fights did much more for his career at the time than trying to move up.

 

deal

Pretty much this.

 

I think he has been a MASSIVE waste of talent. His competition from 2003 to 2011 has been pretty feeble.
