Floyd wouldn't risk losing his unbeaten record by going for the KO against Logan but he was never a KO fighter always a points fighter thats why he was never shown to much respect

He was the best points fighter but. He new if he was in front by 1 point of behind by 10 and would fight as the points reflected. He might be a sellout and a dead set Cock but respect where respect is due.

Oh they both deserved that. I’m just saying calling mayweather a shit fighter because he never went for the knockout is wrong. “He’s dancing around the ring running away” that’s literally what boxing’s about, moving yourself to both avoid your opponent while giving yourself the best opportunities to score. If this match had judges it would have been evident that mayweather was the far superior fighter on the night even at 40 and with a height, weight and reach disadvantage. But the crowd was out for blood and wanted to see someone face up on the mat not a judges scorecard.

Mayweather is a great fighter, anyone who likes boxing I think would agree he is skilled but these last years have been pitiful but it must be hard to knock back hundreds of millions to be fair lol. Anyone who paid for this fight against the youtube guy though, Id love to meet them I have a nigerian prince that needs held with his bank accounts

He was going to lose this fight and weak cunted it he’s a great fighter but he lacked the greatness like Ali. He picked and chooses his whole career he wouldn’t fight Paquiao in his prime. Great fighter on his term Paquiao V Mayweather should of happened a lot earlier then it did but Floyd would of been shitting teeth for weeks so he waited.

Yeah but Ali is the greatest ever arguably and Pacquiao is also a great fighter doesnt change the fact how good Mayweather was. He dodged Kostya as well dont forget. Still a great boxer.

Sugar Ray Robinson is the greatest, ali said it himself.ali said he was the greatest heavyweight. Floyd ducked Pac till he was nearly past it. Pac fought with a busted shoulder. Gone are the days where the true legends fought everyone to put paid to who was the greatest of their era.
Duran sugar Ray Leonard marvellous Marvin Tommy hitman Hurns all faced off. Those blokes had a set on them. Best I've seen in his prime was Roy Jones junior. Got all the VHS videos back to Dempsey Marciano etc.
Rjj was a freak from middleweight all the way up. Missed a cruiserweight title but got a WBA heavyweight title. Then hung around way too long for paychecks and dives.
Boxing hasn't been the same in 15-20 years. They all duck each other for padded records.

When I mentioned he lacked greatness like Ali I’m talking about the way he carried himself not fighting ability but yes one of the greats in his own right.

It is what it is. There are a lot of great fighters throughout history who have gone on too long and soured their records. I love amateur boxing and I love Marquez v Diaz all I care about is having a dig
