    Somebody doesn't like defensive savvy fighters...

    Your opinions on some of the legends of the sport must be highly awkward.

    That is a fact not a preach, all the best boxers in history were known for something and I laugh when maywather is known for a shoulder roll, legend.

    I think he's known for a whole lot more than that...

    The average common sports fan only knows two things about him:

    1. Highest paid athlete in the world, has been for a couple years, and is the highest by some wide margin each time.

    2. Undefeated

    There is a large gap before anything else ever shows up.

    It's clear it was lack of PEDs by Excusequiao. Everything that he was supposed to be, he wasn't. Blame Floyd if you want but it was the other man in the ring who didn't fight.

    I KNEW, as did anyone else knowledgeable about boxing, how Floyd was going to fight. You have to be pretty dumb if you paid and think Floyd was going to change his style. I KNEW if Pac TESTED he would get schooled and not be anything like he had been. I've been saying that for ALMOST SIX YEARS! Moreover, I knew there would be nothing but excuses from Pac and his fans. 100% RIGHT across the board.

    Most boxers don't end up with Parkinsons, regardless of their style or whether or not they got knocked out. And in any case it's not so cut and dried.

    Guys like Ali went on for far too long and they were also very unfortunate.

    Duran doesn't have Parkinsons, neither does Chavez. Both had over 100 fights apiece and they were both highly skilled, toe to toe warriors.

    What do you care how much money Mayweather has conned over the years? You'll never see a cent of it. In fact it's none of your business.

    Mayweather is terrified of getting hurt and he's terrified of losing. And that is exactly how he "fights".

    Mayweather has never given us a great fight. His best efforts are the fights he practically lost and any entertainment on show had far more to do with his opponents performance than his own.

    Muhammad Ali may well have Parkinsons and that is a real tragedy, however, not only is he regarded as one of the greatest boxers ever, but he is right up there with the greatest men of the entire twentieth century. Mayweather is nowhere near Ali; either as a boxer or a man.

    You can say whatever you want, but being in those so called "great fights" increase dramatically your odds of getting parkinson. You can say whatever you want about ali and the 20th century and blah blah, but I wouldnt be surprised at all if he changed all his glory for a life without parkinson since being 45. It's disgusting when I read his twitters "i'm the greatest" when everybody knows he cant even touch the phone screen twice in a row. So sad.

    You can say whatever you want, but the smart thing in this business is not letting the other guy hit you. And that's what floyd does.

    I lol a lot whenver you guys say nobody will watch mayweather's highlights, when, for instance, hatton's ko will be watched for centuries.

    So you think his legacy should be tainted because you dislike his style?

    What do you care about these guys health? They make their own decisions, its got nothing to do with you.

    As a boxing fan you should only be concerned with the quality of the fights. Boxing is entertainment. You pay for the spectacle of two men engaging in combat. It is supposed to be exciting.

    If every boxer fought llike Mayweather because they were terrified of getting Parkinsons the sport would die within a year.

    Mayweather's performance against Pacquiao was shameful. It was probably the most overly cautious and negative performance I've ever seen in a fight of that magnitude. It was more like anti-boxing than actual boxing.

    If you prefer watching that negative stuff, but you don't actually like watching guys like Ali, then its quite probable that you don't really like boxing in the first place.
