Because he does EVERYTHING perfect. He moves, slips, bobs, weaves, rolls with punches, blocks, parrys, catches, controls distance, accuracy, straight right, check hooks, upper cuts, body shots. Multi dimensional. And he wins.
with a corrupt system, only clear and indisputable wins are ko's and domination with lots of knock downs and or bodily damage. all other wins according to the judges are questionable now. draws are becoming extinct and biased wins on popular boxers are becoming very common. boxing is becoming just all about protecting the cash cow.
He's not everyones cup of tea and I do believe years from now we will realize how truly unique he was and how dedicated he was to artistic portion of boxing. I enjoy boxer/punchers however I'm in awe of the completeness this man brings. He's made some of the most prolific offensive machines in the sport look pedestrian even in the pocket. TBH I can't knock the folks that dislike him, his style or the way he operates because its our God given right to enjoy what we enjoy though to not recognize the his gifts and his craft is pure blasphemy.
I like how he makes these phaggots like holy grail, boxingmaster and the rest of these ret@rds jump from bandwagon to bandwagon after he beats whatever fighter they're deep throating that month.
This. I think Mayweather is a t-wat in real life, and am no fan of him personally, but the man is a genius in the ring, and seeing him not only prove his detractors wrong, but also turn them into whiny excuse-making crybabies, more than makes up for it.
