    Nope, I'm a fitness instructor/assistant boxing coach. I have a lot free time on my hands because it's my day off.

    Oh, and when you finish a sentence...a fullstop is needed.

    A: It was on Mayweather/Marquez 24/7

    B: He'd had 2 bouts outside of 154 in the last 8 years

    I find it amusing that you think he hasn't.

    And of course he's lost more. That proves my point. He cared more about securing a solid legacy, than an undefeated record. That's why when people talk about Barrera, they never throw a "what if" or a "could he have" in. The man used his all of his ability, pushed himself to the best he could be, and answered all the questions one could ask of a fighter.

    The same can't be said for Floyd, despite being more talented and skilled.

    Want to know the ironic thing here.

    I work in the editorial department of a magazine.

    What I'm saying is, the people who are anal on grammar, on message boards, are usually that way, as they spend next to no time doing anything academic in their jobs.

    They get excited when they get to write something...........or spot a mistake

    Only by biased observers like you who think that when a fighter loses his "0" hes finished.

    Hatton was coming of one of the best performances of his career when he beat Paulie saying hes shot just shows the level of ignorance and the level of bull**** people resort to just to try to make their argument look stronger.

    Not really. I have just recently spent 3 years in university, so that doesn't apply to me.

    And you left out a fullstop, again.

    If you could actually hold a decent debate and stop with the Mayweather would beat/dominate everyone...I wouldn't take the **** with the grammar.

    I'm a Mayweather fan, but people clearly overrate him.

    You know, let's look at the logic here.

    Barrera

    Junior Jones
    Morales
    Pacquiao
    Hamed
    Marquez


    Mayweather

    Hernandez
    Coralles
    Castillo
    Judah
    De la Hoya
    Hatton
    Marquez
    Mosely


    You know, the actual truth is, sections of boxing fans, just resent success. And when people don't lose, they try and beat these guys outside of the ring.

    What I'm saying is - losing to someone doesn't mean they're a great opponent..................

    There's no one on Barreras resume who'd even push Mayweather too hard

    Can I put to you the time line

    1: Mayweather knocks him out with a single shot. The guys out cold for 2 minutes

    2: People think he should retire

    3: He tries a comeback against Juan Lazcano, and very very nearly gets knocked out again

    4: People think he should definitely quit

    5: GBP match him agaisnt the lightest puncher in the history of boxing, as he's the only person in the sport who won't knock him out. He wins

    6: He gets knocked out again

    Your crazy, the only slick fighter that Morales faced was Zahir Raheem, and he embarrased Morales. Floyd would have mopped the floor with him!

    The narrator

    They were making a comment about how Mayweather, usually faces opponents much heavier than he is.

    It's the general truth.

    A portion of fans think if you get beaten up by someone, they're a tough opponent........

    Not really thinking that the fights competitive, as both fighters aren't anything special

    Mayweather schools Barrera, Morales, and Marquez. Humiliates them.

    Marquez was much better than Morales and Barrera.

    Wow i was never impress with this guy or followed him mainly because he tried slamming someones face on a ring post, but his resume is pretty impressive. I would agree with you, his resume is much better then floyds. o
