Mayweather could have been a top fighter in any era. In the 1980s, he wouldn't have been the best at welterweight as I believe he would have lost to Duran, Leonard, and Hearns, but he probably would have stayed at 135 and made a legacy there. He can only beat the fighters out there now, and he's done that.
Haha i agree this is gettin quite sad. Why all the excuses. If he would have lost then they would have claimed that he was overrated and hatton was the best fighter in the world but since floyd won they say well "this is a weak era" or blame in on cortez. Face it floyd is the best and no one can take anythin away from him. Jus stop hatin.
It does feel that way! You know Floyd is the reason why the era seems weak! No one can beat him! Isn't that the point though? If he was loosing like the rest of the people you haters consider great would that make for a great era! A bunch of loosers! The era is weak to you haters as long as floyd keeps winning! if he had loss yall wouldn't ever say **** like that! In 10yrs people will look back at Floyds era and talk of how he dominated it!
