    Everyones beatable. But hes less beatable than anyone he's going to face under 160.

    The guy hasn't been hit 130 times in a boxing ring for 10 years

    You're not going to lose to anyone who can't hit you 200+ times

    If he never fought one top 147 fighter, then how did he become the #1 fighter at 147? Floyd came up from 140 and earned the #1 spot, retired, came back and beat the reigning top 147 fighter.

    I'll quote a boxing guy I know

    "You have to lose to be loved".

    Minute Mayweather takes a few beatings, people will start admiring the guy. Seeing how good he really was

    Roy Jones got the same for 10 years.

    Fans calling him a coward, and a ducker, and a fraud

    No - he was just too good

    I can agree with the majority of your post, but he beat two #1 welterweights. Meaning the lineal champ. He beat Baldomir, who was the lineal welterweight champ when Floyd fought him, he beat Mosley, who was as close to the lineal welterweight champ as you're going to get(vacant), and he beat Zab, who was one fight removed from the lineal welterweight champ. (there's Zab if you want to discredit Baldomir) Mosley was also P4P #3 at the time, Marquez was P4P #2 at the time they fought (although a little out of his element), and Hatton (again, a little out of his element) was P4P #5. He's fought plenty of top guys at Welterweight. They may not be the top rated welterweights sometimes, but in boxing you have to fight the top guys regardless of weight.

    That being said, I have a grand appreciation for Floyd's skills inside the ring, but I don't even care about what happens outside the ring. Especially that woman beating crap. This is the third time this same girl has accused Floyd of beating her, and both of the previous times she's admitted she lied. I honestly don't care what happens, it's not my life, I won't be getting all self-righteous about it.

    Truth is, the truth hurts.

    100% of yankees fans love them as they've won a lot

    100% of people who hate the yankees, hate them as they have won too much

    It's basic human psychology

    Some people like dominance. Some people hate it

    Some people were friends with guys like Mayweather at school. Some were the guys he beat up.

    Some people admire dominance. Some resent it

    That's the truth.

    Of course, I can't prove this, but I bet, when you're talking Mayweather, fans and haters can be split into two groups

    1: Guys who were good at sport, at school, and were generally hanging round with people like Mayweather

    2: Guys who spent their entire high school days, bitching and hating "jocks" even though they had never even spoken to them

    This is so funny.

    Floyd fought the number 1 ranked fighter at 130, 135, two of them at 147, and the number 2 ranked guy at 154. And the only reason he didn't do it at 140 as well, is because he wouldn't face him (tszyu)

    Pacquiao fought the number 1 at 130

    The number 6 at 135

    The number 1 at 140

    The number 4,6 at 147, and an unranked opponent

    An unranked opponent at 154

    hahah

    Love it how Floyd gets criticised, for facing errr, ranked guys, who weren't coming off beatings

    Floyd beat the linear champ at 130, 135, and two at 147

    It's not an argument

    Pacquiao's never faced a linear champ above 130
