    He has only himself to blame that he is not ranked up there with Ali, Robinson etc. He was more concerned with $$$$$$$ & self preservation

    Gamboa could have been huge, but he ****ed up picking whoever was supposed to run his career outside the ring.

    Anthony Mundine wasted his career, he had the talent but wasted time fighting bums and moving down in weight.

    I wouldn't say a large majority! You're just talking out of your arse! You don't know what percentage of people believe Floyd was a cherry picking cheat, just like you don't know if he was a cheat. The only thing you can do is suspect him of cheating! I don't know where you're from and I don't care but, here in the US, you are innocent until proven guilty! Let me give an example. If I see my neighbor CJ roaming around my garage at night and the next morning my Corvette is gone, the only thing I can tell the police is that, I saw CJ last night. For me to go on about CJ stealing my car is wrong. I can't prove that CJ was the one that actually stole my car! Just like FM, you may suspect him of wrong doing but, he was excused. The testing agencies said he was clean. You may speculate that FM paid off some people to keep his name clean but, you cannot prove that either! Floyd 49-0, CJ 0-49 LOL

    Like Ive said before Just ask any doctor or nurse what condition would anyone be in if he was dehydrated enough to need an emergeancy 750 ml saline drip ILLEGALLY in his own home?? They'll tell you same as mine told me " He would be in ICU while we tried to save his kidneys from shutting down" He asked who was I talking about I said a professional boxer.he fought 12 rounds 24 hours later. He laughed & said " You don't need me to tell you why he needed it do you it was not for dehydration " lol

    Still doesn't prove FM's guilt now does it! You do realize that it's very difficult to prove a case on circumstantial evidence alone! Just ask Marsha Clark, you know, the prosecuting attorney that lost the conviction of OJ Simpson! You have no proof, therefore the man is innocent! You can argue all you want but, the fact remains, you are not well connected enough and your pocket book doesn't run deep enough to prove Mayweather's guilt! Suck it up and move bra!!!

    Floyd did cheat but stop pretending that everyone else wasnt, Floyd simply evened out the playing field and still won, he has caused tremendous amounts of butthurt it seems.

    So... Let me get this straight. A fighter who fough and defeated 8 arguably 9 HOFers, Held a championship belt in 5 different weight classes (1 of only 2 boxers in the history of the sport to do that). Lineal Championship (1 of only 2 fighters in the history of the sport to do that), held the Lineal Title in 2 different weight classes simultanaeously (1 of only 2 different fighters in the history of the sport to ever do that) Remained and undefeated Champion (your opinion doesn't count on that, that's record book stuff) for 22 years. Was a waste of talent?!?

    Interesting!

    Lara has done okay for himself and is a name, Ortiz is old but by a process of elimination I imagine he will get some big fights at HW. Gamboa and Rigo are the biggest wastes due to terrible business moves, sadly they are also the most talented of the group! Gamboa should have sucked it up and fought Rios as he was actually exciting to watch and had a large following at the time, had he kept winning and not lost momentum the Crawford fight might have been very different not to mention he would have been flush!!! Rigo's the best of this bunch for sure and still has a legit case to be in the top 10 P4P but should have moved up to FW after the Donaire fight, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to work out that Frampton/Quigg/Santa Cruz/Mares where never being fed to Rigo whilst they were still fresh and some in their first weight class. He should have and gone up and tried trapping them the way GGG is doing to Canelo. I feel for the Cuban fighters as they get a raw deal and need better management overall.

    Trinidad after his loss against Hopkins. I'm not sure why he retired, there were a multitude of great fights to be made at 147 and 154.

    He was only 28, he could of rebounded after the loss and done more instead of becoming a part time boxer with just a left hook.
