    Default What was Floyd Mayweather's best win?

    Choose one of the options in the poll.

    I've included Saul Alvarez in the poll. That's because I have no doubt Floyd will pitty-pat and run to another dull decision win.

    Canelo may bizarrely as I write be included. But at least there is no other presumption in the poll...

    When he beat Corrales, he looked great. I was really impressed. But you have to put it into perspective...Corrales would fight if you would fight. Didn't know much about boxing and, when Mayweather wouldn't stand and fight, he showed coward and quit.

    Yes, I should have had Hatton there instead of Hernandez.

    Terrific poll, very impartial, I LIKE IT!

    Well, dude brought it on himself.
    There's glory and then there's money.
    The glory is forever, but the money always runs out....

    He chose the money, good financial decision, but someday he'll be broke like so many other faded former Champions.
    The difference is they fought the best when they were at their best, they didn't want the opponent to have any excuses because they had that macho bragging rights thing going, so those old Champs will always have the respect and the glory even when the money runs out. Floyd's handpicking at just the right time and stacking the deck in ridiculous manner creates excuses for literally every fight he's had since the Castillo robbery in 2002.
    World-class elite fighter, but he took the easier match-ups. He robbed his fans and himself because look at what you see the rare times that he stepped in with a top prime guy like Corrales or Hatton.

    I'm really amazed he's fighting Saul Alvarez at all because Floyd fighting elite, prime fighters hasn't been his MO for over 10 years. Alvarez is going to be too much for him. Bayless is the ref, he's a good ref. I can already see him waving off the fight, Floyd on the ropes wobbly with Canelo coming in for the kill, but Bayless waves off the fight before Canelo unloads the finisher.

    I know The Truth about Boxing...


    EDIT:
    Just did the poll.
    It's pretty damn sad when a guy's best performance happened all the way back in 2001. Dude was 23 years old with cajones when he fought Corrales. Corrales knew he was going to jail later, but fighters can block things out when preparing for a fight. That was a boxing clinic...
    The De La Hoya fight, man, that performance by Floyd was bull$#!t...
    There's so many elite prime guys he could've fought instead of that lame list he created for himself on the poll with all his careful handpicking....
