Why is Floyd not respected enough?

Are you seriously claiming that Mayweather doesn't have critics that are nothing but racists?

 

Vitali and Vlad both have higher KO percentages than Void. Void is boring. Everyone does not want the Klitschkos to use the jab, but it's OK whenever Void does. Klitschkos are boxers, very skilled, great defense, Void is purely boring. Want to see who is the best? Put Void into a ring with Vitali or Vlad, either one would knock Void out, send him to the hospital or morgue! Klitschkos beat everyone,no matter what weight division. SOB Ward said he could easily beat Vitali or Vlad, OK, let's see him do it?

 

I'm sure fighters of all races have racist critics. But it's not a terribly huge factor. People hate Floyd because of his attitude, his fake retirements, and the fact that he has yet to create a resume worthy of his once-in-a-generation skills. And this is coming from a huge Floyd fan and defender.

 

he's massively respected.

rightfully, he's also not immune to reasonable criticism.

 

Sorry I disagree.

Every boxer, boxing fan, and anyone that knows anything about boxing respects Floyd.

Love or hate his personality, No one can deny his greatness in the ring. He may not be the GOAT, and he may not be the most fan friendly boxer but he is certainly the best boxer of my era by long way.

Anyone that doesn't respect his skills, or doesn't have him at number 1 P4P "Don't know **** about boxing"

 

Because he is Black, in control of his ish, and not willing to be condescended to.

Ali wasn't respected
RJJ wasn't respected
Hopkins wasn't respected
Tyson was feared not respected

The hate never ends.

 

Saying any version of Margarito or Pac where "threats" isn't reasonable. :yep

 

chickening out in front of real treats.....very accurate. :hat

 

claiming ali wasn't respected is?

 

probably because of his big mouth, for starters. roid floyd calling out pac on steroids. the list is endless

 

Answer in a nutshell>>>>>

Floyd is one of the most incredibly talented boxers I have ever seen BUT talent alone does not make an ATG champion. A champion has to have the heart of a lion & balls of steel too. Floyd lacks both these ingredients. Its hard to respect a very talented boxer who has the balls of a gnat

 

Floyd is too respected in my opinion
For a very boring to watch fighter who ducked the best in his weight class in their prime (pacquaio, margarito, cotto, etc),.
He's basically the welterweight version of Wladimir Klitschko - A* talent, highly skilled, unbeatable, defence first style that most people find boring to watch. Difference is Floyd is american and gets the respect he deserves, Wladimir doesn't. Vitali Klitschko is one of the most exciting heavyweights ever and has the A* talent to go with it yet doesn't get the respect he deserves
Being an Black american has helped Floyd get the respect he deserves, not hindered him.

 

Again, your bias is showing.

 

why respect a fighter that is a cure for insomnia, boxing is about entertainment and taking risks not fighting like a ****ing puussy

anyhow you can't say floyd isn't respected he gets massive praise and respect, commentators lick his bum on a regular
