I find mayweather's performances boring on every one of his fights. That's not to say he doesn't move or throw punches or get KO/TKOs from time to time.
Main reasons for not appreciating mayweather:
He is predominately a counter-puncher which = you create openings and I'll be glad to fill them.
He primarily backs up.
He primarily is only offensive when the other fighter is no longer in a position to be a threat usually due to exhaustion from chasing him or that were safe from the beginning due to their fighting style or age.
I find him mostly boring for never truly stepping up and taking on anyone who would be a real stretch for him, save one. This is the vane in which I will answer each of the fights proposed to me.
N'dou - props for floyd in taking on a taller fighter who is a power puncher. One directional fighter. This guy had no defense, was way too easy to hit and had to be set to punch.
Sosa - Slow and one directional. Up until this fight, his record reflected one other well known fighter and that was a loss. Shouldn't have even been in the ring.
Gatti - This fight should have never taken place. Gatti was shot already.
Corrales - see N'dou. RIP Chico
Burton (Augustus) - No power, record not worthy. Souldn't have been in the ring.
Chavez - Level of previous competition was aweful. One directional and too short.
Judah - Mentally weak, previously proven how easily he could be rocked.
Corley - No power, whole list of nobodys on his record except when he stepped up in class and lost.
Castillo - One directional, easily hit but, the only fight that I thought was going to be difficult for him. And it was, the first time anyway.
Manfredy - Slow, one directional and easy to hit.
Hernandez - Terrible class of fighters up until this fight. KO record padded by competition. Never should have been in the ring.
I enjoy(ed) a lot of the fighters in this list. I mean no disrespect towards them, I was merely listing why they made easy fights for floyd.
