re: Anyone Watching Floyd's Press Conference?

It's hilarious people are blaming Floyd for the fight being boring when he out punched a guy whose whole career is based on his ability to throw massive amounts of punches. Pacquaio was a bitch who had no answer for Floyd just like all the rest then mega bitched it up after the fight. F him and his country.

His biggest wins were versus fighters on the downside of their careers: Pacq, Judah, and De La Hoya. Instead of fighting Cotto, Margarito, Pacq, and Winky in their primes.
It is what it is. His MO is handpicking fights that he thinks he won't get hurt in/will quite comfortably win.
you do realize him and pac both mayweather fought the same fighters in the span of about 5 years. So if you want to take those wins away from Mayweather then you have to from PacMan as well.

Cotto for example was in his prime from 07-09. Pacq fought Cotto in 09, and May fought Cotto in 12. Not even close.
May a 100% dodged Cotto in his prime

What I've learned is that when you like someone, you like them. You can't help it. Even if that person has legal issues. People know those things are wrong, but they can look past them because they weren't personally wronged. If they like a guy, they like him.
But if people dislike a guy, they will use those legal troubles as ammo and add it to the list of "reasons" whey they don't like the guy.
This is stupid shite right here.

one fighter
my point still stands if you take the results away from mayweather than take them away from pacman bc it was all in a span of about 5 years.
De La Hoya, Hatton, Márquez x2, Mosley all fought Manny after they lost to Floyd

There's a list of fighters you can say he dodged. And I don't think anyone is arguing about whether or not Pacq has dodged fights. We're talking about one big reason why I am not a Mayweather fan: he has a history of fighting big names on the tail end of their careers. Would he still have won most of those fights? Possibly. I also wouldn't have any beef with his handpicking strategy if he didn't claim he was the GOAT.

The point is you can't prop up manny as being awesome and mayweather ducked him in his prime when manny beat up on guys after mayweather was done with them.
He made Manny looks silly at times last night

This is stupid shite right here.
It happens all the time. When people are likeable, people look past things they did.
When someone is unlikeable, they are never forgiven for their wrongs.
People used to fricking hate Mike Tyson. Then he does some Hangover movies, opens up about his life, does some theater work, and now people LOVE Mike Tyson. That's just one example in the sport of boxing.

Lebatard says it all the time, the worst "crime" an athlete can commit is the crime of being arrogant.

I loved Tyson. He was a tPOS but I respected him for fighting and actually wanting to win
Floyd isn't a fighter. He's an entertainer. Big difference. He belongs in WWE

I think people like to see remorse for mistakes...even if its fake...and i think thats where money rubs people wrong..he never shows remorse and just turns up his character to a 10 instead

No way. He started to show off after he won those middle rounds because he knew he didn't have to be aggressive the rest of the fight to win. Just back up, counter as Pac came in, and then spin off the ropes or tie pac up. Those last 3 Reds were horrible.

He isn't an entertainer either. His fights are boring but he wins.
