Mayweather has created his own handicap with the double standard by proclaiming himself the best and even the greatest of all time. He doesn't do it the way Ali did and create an atmosphere when he's boasting, he just comes off like an ass.
When you tell everyone you're the greatest, then never have a great fight, not JUST because you're so good, but because you won't take a risk in the ring.
The problem is he's just like his dad, he makes these silly boasts and he doesn't have the personality to pull it off like Ali.
In contrast, I've never heard Pac proclaim himself as the greatest, nor did his trainer. If you let other people say it you don't get the hassle.
Jr. and Sr. need a publicist that is not related to them, that can explain to them how to get a decent public image.
