    in 1o years time nobody will think of floyd as the greatest....

    If u think otherwise then you dont deserve to be involved with the sport of boxing

    we all know that why are we arguing?

    Who cares if his motavation is money. To get the higest paydays he has to and has fought very good oppoents.
    If you have a probblem with his movation being money, get over it.

    Agreed.

    Sugar Ray Robinson, in his words, "never enjoyed boxing" and it was "simply a business" for him. Michael Spinks likewise.

    Look at who they fought.

    Whatever the motivations are, I care about the end result of the matchups we see. If it's to pay your IRS debts, to buy a new mansion, to prove you're the best, whatever, just give us good matchups. In this case, Mosley or Pacquiao, not fights against lightweights like Marquez.

    So you're saying floyd went into hiding in order to watch all the top WW beat each other up. Floyd aint lex luther. You give him to much credit.

    It's all been said before, but every person I know - especially the ones who know nothing about boxing or Floyd Mayweather, think he's a world class **** after watching 24/7.

    to get the biggest payday, you need to fight the best. the best boxers pay the best money. manny pacquiao p4p number one, and he's floyd biggest fight financially.

    Nobody remembers about the Prince Naseem Hamed after he lost to MAB so why would someone remember him after he loses to either Shane or Pacquiao? Maybe if he makes a fool out of himself again on the WWE or MTV Cribs, maybe...

    i don't know how one of the most skilled boxers all time has failed to fight the best during his time and we can be okay with it.

    don't ya'll want to see how floyd's skills would've play out against prime cotto, margarito, williams, mosley, pacquiao, tszyu?

    I got 5 minutes into that 24/7 and I had to turn it off. The man is simply intolerable. Him with his wad of cash singing "I'm going to the mall, Shane you can't go to the mall because you haven't got the money I have" or something along those lines. Really, that is immature for a ten year old to say nevermind a 33 year old. Pathetic. I really wish he had a few braincells and a different personality, he is so damn talented I would love to be able to like him but he is just too much of a buffoon.
