ATG cherrypicker / ducking diva / most overpaid boxer in history / the man who blocked the match of the century / the man who started the cold war that doomed a lot of potential great matches / a chicken afraid of past prime midgets whom he can only engage via twitter / overall a cancer to the sport and a big hoax
FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR: " I have a smart team, I will keep handpicking my opponents and I will keep stealing all your money " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zQL_1qcdXo&app=desktop
The best and most infamous fighter of his career-length-era. I do expect the era as a whole to be frowned upon, though... His legacy will grow from those who spend so much energy every day on forums like these desperately trying to discredit him when people 30 years from now look back at material to get educated on him.
A supremely talented guy who made an obscene amount of money whilst also denying the boxing fans of a superbout with rival Manny Pacquiao. Not all his fault of course, but I think that charge will stick more than being a cherry picker in general.
As a coward who avoided Pac like the plaque. Sure, it takes balls to get in that ring and he was an amazingly skilled fighter but the first thing that jumps to mind is coward.
He'll be remembered as a defensive minded genius who has arguably the strongest mental game in sports history.
:deal Pacquiao will be more remembered because of his wars in the lower divisions. Mayweather will be remembered as a diva of boxing due to his demands for his opponents. The boxer who got bitten "badly" on his hand with hand wrap, boxing glove and injected with xylocaine by Maidana with a mouth guard on.
