Mayweather's career-defining win?

That may not have been the best DLH, but it was a pretty good one and while he was still a giant star,so I'll go with Oscar.

BTW,
























































KTFO6 to all you *******ed mother****ers! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! The butthurt that will never die! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! :rofl

 

His win vs Castillo bec. he was totally outplayed by castillo, I dunno what happened why he won on that fight!! that was totally robbed!!

 

Also, fight vs ODH. As my scored card it was Oscar up by 2 rounds going to last round... totally robbery!

 

Exactly. Mayweather had every advantage stylistically and that win was a Foregone conclusion. DeLahoya, Mosley, Castillo, and Coralles were his best wins.

 

I love how all the dog eaters gathered in here

 

I guess you have to go with the fight that propelled him to super-stardom . . . Oscar(when he had the deck totally stacked against him and still won by a wide margin)? Or when was it when was the underdog and Unified against Chico? Or perhaps when he shut up his critics and gave the man some people think gave him his best fight and won going away? Perhaps it was fighting all those fighters that "fans" said he would never fight Cotto, Hatton and SSM? I know how about fighting a man 14 years his junior and about 15lbs heavier to win both the lineal WW and JMW titles?

 

Great post. People often conveniently ignore the fact that DLH had been fighting at 154 for 5 or 6 years going into that fight, and Mayweather to this day is no bigger than most 140-pounders are on fight night. Hell, i recently saw Terence Crawford come in at 149 on fight night for a LIGHTWEIGHT fight, and i thought "****, that's just one pound lighter than Mayweather weighed the other night while fighting for the JMW title!"

Also, when Mayweather first started saying that he wanted to fight Oscar (i think he was still fighting at 135) ppl didn't even take him seriously and said Oscar would kill him.

But when Oscar finally needed Floyd and gave him the chance, Floyd beat him and everybody goes "so what, DLH was old". Never mind that 34 isn't all that old in today's boxing world and that Oscar in his last few fights before Floyd was still operating on a world-class level.

I picked the Corrales win in the poll out of a sort of knee-jerk reaction, but the DLH win is extremely underappreciated and may well be considered Floyd's best.

 

Too long of a career and too many accomplishments to point to any single win.

 

Floyds career defining win is seeing Pac **** on himself when Marquez knocked him unconscious.

 

I mean he never gets these defining fights because he beats people so easy.. for him to get credit he'l have to get in war and come out on top... most chose floyd to beat canelo (those who know boxing, some casuals had canelo) but it was so sided he doesn't really get credit.. if it'd of been close and he'd of come out on top in a toe to toe battle he'd of got tonnes of credit for taking on the bigger man etc.. he wins easy it all just gets forgotten. I mean, who knows canelo could go on to be an ATG...

You'v got to say DLH is his career defining fight though, after that he has guys queing up to fight him, before he was struggling to get the big fights because he brought nothing to the table except a tough fight (not gruelling but tough for people to beat him because of his style). Now he brings money people are willing to take the challenge. Hopefully he fights pacman still, if pac looks good against rios.. (i think he'l be way too fast for brandon and win on points, maybe.. only maybe though a late stoppage)

 

Misconceptions and Deceptions!!!!

 

when you outclass the competition by leaps and bounds for the casual fight fan there is no defining win. But for those of us who love the sweet science:

Hernandez
Corrales
Augustus
Ndou
ODLH
How he handled JMM with all your excuses...
Judah
Mosley who just KO'd Margacheato!

 

That was Money's defining loss dude. What's his nickname?

 

You guys are ******ed! Find another hobby! talk to me when youlearn the sport or at least try and put on the gloves. Guess that won't happen!
