Would you call a guy with 5 ko in the last 15 years a "fighter"?

    Floyd was NOT voted Fighter of the Era Manny Pacquaio was & rightly so. A coward that "RETIRES" in tears:|:| to avoid having to fight his legitimate opponents, would NEVER be voted Best in his Era

    The sport is called Boxing. Not knockouts

    No, just understand not only this sport, but sports in general, and that while KO's or touchdowns or 3 pointers are great, and it's better for the outcome if you get them It's about winning. You win however it comes whether it be decision, all field goals or all free throws. For someone who spent 30 years in boxing I thought you'd have figured that out. If you truly were in boxing (which I don't believe). You obviously were not very good.

    He's not a coward because he doesn't fight how you want him to fight CJ... get over yourself :lol:

    Also, read his resume, I think he has better names than Margarito (75% ... let me repeat that for you since he's your go to bogey man now he beat manny SEVENTY FIVE PER CENT said Mayweather wins on the most recent poll here) and Williams to be honest though they'd have been decent wins, you would be critiquing them right now if he'd had them.

    Again, Manny fought much worse versions of Mosley, Oscar, Hatton and Cotto, so if I were as dense as you seem I'd say 'Manny would be crushed by uncherry picked versions of these fighters'... yet I know it would make little difference as I greatly respect Pacquiao even though he didn't fight the versions Floyd fought... Margarito was also a cherry pick by your floyd-logic btw.

    Getting KOs doesn't have a lot to do with being a "fighter." KOs often are set up or executed with well timed punches, which stun or put a guy out cold (like what Marquez did to Manny). Often times guys are being "boxers" when they get the KO...not just slugging it out with the other guy.

    To be perfectly honest I don't give a hoot what you believe. You obviously have never set foot in a boxing gym let alone a ring. You do not have a clue . You know what the media says you look at box rec you google ROFL
    I did OK in the ring could have been much better. I know if I'd been blessed with the talents Mayweather was Id have made better use of them. About the only things I never tried were promoting fights or refereeing. Ive done just about everything else over the years & enjoyed every minute

    Tony Margarito at 100% would have DESTROYED Mayweather & best of all FLOYD knew it. Name me any other boxer that "RETIRED" in tears:|:| for GOOD!!!! claiming no one appreciated or loved him ROFLMAO He did it to avoid having to rematch Oscar & face Margarito , Williams etc. When the smoke cleared Mayweather came slithering back over 2 years later. If that's not a coward what is???

    No, I have never set foot in the ring. you're right. I watch a lot, I read a lot which is what the average fan does. I also don't have a pilots license, but I still love flying. You on the other hand claim you have been around this sport for over 30 years in and out of the ring, and obviously don't know **** about it.

    Floyd is NOT the fighter of the Era Manny Pacquaio was voted in & rightly so Pacquaio>>>>>>>>>>Mayweather all day

    You are right when you say 118-110 is Mayweather score
    Its as fake & corrupt as he is . No REAL KNOWLEDGEABLE boxing fan would EVER score that farce 118-110. Mayweather struggled to get a 115-113 dec over a severely injured opponent to me that was a pathetic performance. Even Floyd sr called him a coward:think:patsch
