    Boxing expeerts, historians and fans are allways slow to give modern and comtempery fighters their due. Take Mayweither for example. He has ATG talent and skills and is as acomplished as allmost any ATG (five world tittles). However not many of us consider him a top 10 ATG.

    Mayweather is a P4P great, not doubt

    This is my provisional top 5 fighters of all time - I have no doubt others will place Mayweather there in 20 years time

    "He who hits and runs away, lives to fight another day." willy pep

    its amazing 241 fights and he lost 11 of them...I think that man went on 2 separate consecutive 80 fight win streaks or something. That **** is hardcore.

    Exactly, Mayweather will be getting his props. I don't really like the person he is personally but honestly who gives a **** it doesn't matter. It's like Bill Clinton was the president of the united states who gives a **** if he got blow jobs from a skank.....nm lol. Mayweather will get his props and if he defeats Hatton he will definitely have mine..If he goes on to fight Mosley/Cotto than everyone can stfu with the Floyd hating hehe. I don't like the guy personally but hes extremely talented and his work ethic in boxing is A++ He deserves respect for that alone.
