    Yes he does a lot of crazy stuff with his money but I believe the reason he is still undefeated is because he dedicated his entire life to the sport even when he reached the top which is really rare. When most fighters reach the top they no longer give it their all in training camps and spent a lot of time partying and doing all kinds of unhealthy things. All Floyd does is eat a lot of fast food.

    Yes, and he can afford to eat fast food by the truckload with all the work he puts in. His training regimen is legendary amongst his peers. Forget about these skinny/fat ****ing nerds posting on boxing forums all day. Even other professional athletes are impressed by his work ethic.

    He lives the boxing lifestyle.

    Floyd doesn't know the meaning of weight gain or fat.

    Impressed with how well his body has coped considering. Hands seems to be his only problem.

    That's genetics, it's hereditary.

    His entire family seemed to have huge hand problems, Roger/May Sr/Jeff etc.

    It's not something that can be fixed so whatever.

    He gets more credit from me, being so dominant with pretty much broken hands.

    Just like the other greatest fighter of the era who also happens to be undefeated, the one and only, Super Joe Calzaghe :nod

    This is true. :huh

    Is it possible that weakened hands is the remedy to go undefeated? :think

    Sven Ottke/Rocky (Despite his high KO%) probably had weak hands too. :nod

    Dedicated to what? The fans? No, he charges $100 for a PPV and treats it like a ****ing sparring session.
    Dedicated to the sport? No, the old-timers that fought 6-12 times per year and came out of boxing with half their marbles gone were the ones that were truly dedicated. Mayweather doesn't know anything about sacrifice without significant reward in sight.
    He's dedicated to doing as little as possible while maximizing his bank account, don't kid yourself he's anything else.

    Yes, it was all Mayweather's fault and not Pac's fault for throwing even less than him. :patsch

    Blame Pac for being scared the entire evening and making it a very boring affair.

    Was May/Maidana boring? :huh

    Shut up ***, you'd defend Mayweather if he murdered your children and burned down your house.

    Yes blame Mayweather for everything, it's his fault pestilence/poverty is a problem in this world.

    It's his fault Pacquiao threw 429 punches while May threw 432.

    :yep
