    I get where you are coming from but again the official records don't go by what fans feel, otherwise every boxers records would be all over the place if fans decided what fights were fair or who should have really won.

    May weather couldn’t sell a ticket and wasn’t a top 10 p4p fighter until 2004/05 when he made a name for himself for beating up over hyped washed up fighters.

    no one cares about the bums he fought at featherweight, nobody had mayweather over Barrera or Tzsyu back then.

    Your very foolish to say Pretty Boy Floyd version couldn't punch. He was considered an KO artist then. He was a great puncher at 130, 135 and 140. Once he got up to 147, he hands were breaking down and he stopped sitting down on his punches due to many hand injuries at the lighter weight.

    I'm curious to who these washed up fighters you are referring too. Can you name them?

    I was a huge boxing fan right before Floyd came into the scene I can't remember one person ever alluding to Floyd being a "KO artist".

    Floyd is the most skilled. We do know Loma could not solve his Teofimo Lopez and Salido problems. You think both could have troubled Floyd talk less of beating him like they did to Loma.
