Video: Evaluating Floyd's Final 10 Fights

Pac > Canelo > Cotto > Mosley > Maidana > Marquez > Ortiz > Berto > Guerrero ?

 

Guerrero? Ortiz? Maidana? Berto? No Thurman. No Brook. No Khan. No Bradley. Asterisks like crazy around the Pacquiao fight. I'll give him credit for Alvarez and some for the past prime Cotto, but the second phase of his career wasn't as good as the first with Hernandez, Castillo, Corrales, De La Hoya, and Hatton.

Just to throw some historical perspective on this sport Holman Williams fought from 126 lbs to 160 lbs mostly as a welterweight where he fought Cocoa Kid, Charley Burley, Eddie Booker, Bob Satterfield, Archie Moore, Marcel Cerdan and Jake LaMotta without ever achieving a title.

 

Floyd Mayweather wanted to be TBE of the boxing game, that means financial positioning too.

His opposition in his last 10 fights largely sucked. Berto? Cherry pick gone wrong Maidana? Ortiz? Past prime Cotto?

Facts about age
- It's ring age that matters, not 'age'. Pipino Cuevas HOF was finished by 24 years old, Wilfried Benitez also in his 20's, Morales approaching 30. Hopkins was at the elite level in his 40's.
Defensive styles and higher weight classes add to longevity.

Mayweather didn't rise up the weight classes like Golovkin supposedly should, in order to fight greats.
Floyd RETIRES when he doesn't want to fight stylistic threats. He was surrounded by prime Pacquiao, prime Williams, prime Margarito and prime Cotto during 2007-2009 but fought none of them. Hey...in the grant scale of things, none of them are that amazing...we're talking about a Welterweight Pacquiao here.

 

TBE of the boxing game (thus the business structure) doesn't care about things like this.

 

Thurman didn't become relevant until Floyd was old and ready to retire. Canelo and Pacquiao are better than every name you just name mentioned. Stop Hating

 

There seems to be some big fact you are missing about Floyd and what we found out about him in the run in to his career, but IV no idea what it is???

 

Excellent video and with great ****ysis as usual. Very fair I pretty much agree with everything.:good

 

There were no stylistic threats for him to face. Margo is a tailormade for PBF so you can stop that stuff right now.:deal PBF was the favorite over anyone in the world 154 and down no one was beating him back then and you already know this, just more wishful thinking and sour g****s.

 

But didn't he miss out 1, 2, 3 or IV salient facts? :think

 

PBF UD #48 now then and forever deal with it Pac****.:hi:

 

Good video!
Got the much coveted YouTube thumbs up!

 

It's all they can do had he fought Thurman they would just say who did he beat? He's not anyone. If PBF didn't fight them by their logic he ducked them.

 

The men's room radio show here in Seattle called lions the mayweather of the animal kingdom yesterday. They only prey on the sick, weak, and old.

 

Sounds like the typical bitter ****s who picked PBF to lose every fight and went to bed mad after every one of his wins.:yep
