marquez doesn't really belong in that category however theres a long list of fighters who have similar resumes some better some worse right now winning and losing doesn't always have a clear line.but you seek out the toughest competition the fact is he called out de la hoya since he was a featherweight so he moved up in weight took low risk high reward fights built his name and some sort of marketability got the #1 p4p slot by beating gatti all the while bypassing guys like tsyzu hatton marg for the big intention which is to get at de la hoya and to keep that fight as big as it was floyd needed to remain undefeated and at the top of the p4p charts. you got guys on here trying to discredit someone for a loss when it shows alot of character to fight someone who may have the ability to beat you. you name these fighters that mayweather has beat and yea he has a few names but you measure a win by what the guy who was beaten did before the fight and also after the fight as a meauring stick of what he has left in the tank thats why i say mayweathers career defining win was against corrales a man he dominated who went on to do big things
In A Way He Is Right But No Modern Boxers Take Enuff Risks In My Opinion Personally I Like Mayweather I Think Hes A Smart Fighter Who Makes Great Buisness Decisions But As Far As All Time Greats No He Doesnt Even Rank Top 20 In My Book I Mean Genaro Hernandez Jose Luis Castillo Diego Correles Zab Judah Odlh But Lets Be Honest No One Else Is Really That Impressive Ricky Hatton Is Ok But I Dont Considor Him Elite U Look At Som1 Like Alis Record I Could Recognize Almost Every Name On Their Ken Norton Leon Spinks Larry Holmes Joe Fraizer George Formen Flyod Patterson Sonny Liston Archie Moore Nd Alot More I Only Named The Very Well Known People Then U Have Ray Robinson Another Atg There U Have Giardello,maxim,basillo,fullmer,lamotta,graziano,turpin,gavlian And Many More Nd Lets Not Forget For Those Who Talk Of Floyd Being A 5 Weight Champ That In Rays Day There Wasnt A Weight Class For Every 6 Or So Pounds Im Not Going To Sit Here Nd Post Evryones Record But Guys Like Ray Leornard Tommy Hearns Marvin Hagler George Forman Roberto Duran Willie Pep There Are Many Many Men Who Rank Way Ahead Of Floyd At All Time Great Hes Far From Number 1 Nd As Far As Modern Day Guys Who I Would Rank Ahead Of Him Roy Jones Jr Pernell Whitaker Delahoya Nd Julio Ceaser Chavez Nd U Dont Agree Then **** You
NAME 10 FIGHTERS THAT HAVE WON 6 DIFFERENT TITLES IN 5 DIFFERENT WEIGHT CLASSES AND DID IT UNDEFEATED
No one has ever thought Ali, Haglar, Foreman, Marciano, Leonard, Liston, Holmes, Norton, Frazier, Hearns, Tyson, Holyfield, etc, no one has ever thought these guys have ducked anyone, or been afraid to fight anyone at any time of their careers. And why? Because they fought every one, even if the odds were against them, they fought anywhere and anyone at anytime. I think these guys are like the guys that really go to war and come back heros. They aren't the guys that run up to canada. Now, why is Mayweather considered a ducker? Is it because there are haters out there, that are trying to blind everyone from the truth? How come there are no haters trying to blind us of the truth about Ali, Foreman, Haglar, Frazier, etc? De La Hoya is known for not ducking people, until recently concerning Margarito. And because of this, his fans are getting upset and on his case for thinking of fighting Pac instead. Hoya fans are true fans of boxing, and you can't call them haters or nuthuggers or whatever, because they are getting on Hoya, and rightfully so. Margarito fans would get on Margo's case if he ducked Williams forever. Margo fans are true boxing fans too. But, what's with the Mayweather fans? They are so blind when it comes to anything Mayweather. And all Mayweather fans know how to do is call everyone a hater who disagrees. Mayweather is good, no doubt, but he's the only guy I know that is an ATG and an Alltime ducker too! I wish James Toney could have fought him, or Roy Jones could have fought him, those guys are so good they would knock out anyone the likes of Mayweather. But, if it had been possible, it wouldn't have happened, Mayweather would have ducked Roy and Toney!
I see no difference between ducking and being not interested, you have to see it that way because you don't know what's inside the guy. I have always wondered why Mayweather has never wanted to fight everyone, because he is so good. I think it is because of his chin. He has probably been floored before in sparring. I've also noticed when he fights, and someone hits him well, the very few times he's been hit, he gets a panic look on his face. Strange to me that someone that good would get a panic look. If you don't believe me about the panic look, just look at the fights again.
yea im glad there has finally gotten a few fans of the sport giving feedback instead of just a personal fan. i was a huge mayweather fan in his earlier career however somewhere it took a left turn and it wasn't as important to show his greatness but you know talent alone won't make you great you need the balls to go with it
You're right, it is similar to Berto's sitauation. And people ARE saying Berto isn't ready. He's been given a title w/o ANY real wins over fighters who would be deemed a threat to any other top WW.
your making your own reasons to back up your stong and stubborn and somewhat ignorant dislike you have with your feelings towards Mayweather. Im getting tired of pointing out your faults in your logic because you seem stubborn and certain in your feelings towards Mayweather so talking to you is like talking to a brick wall..
