Hahhahaa

Sure am and he will always remain a prick.

Sure am and he will always remain a prick.

That's the thing, Floyd chose this persona to portray and it has worked well for him. Then his fans get upset when people call him on it. We still watch him and enjoy his skills but the controversy has worked in his favor. Who knows, maybe one one one he's a real nice guy, I mean he hangs with Justin Beiber, how bad can he be.

TBE
-perfect record
-champion for 18 years
-titles in 4 weight divisions (maybe 5th in 2015)
-11 world titles
-self managed
-owns own promotional company
-highest paid athlete 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015
-highest paid boxer ever
-Most money generated in single fight (beat own record)
-first fighter to demand and enforce comprehensive drug testing before and after fights
-has taken very little punishment in ring

Who has better stats than these??

If you're trying to make a case for TBE, none of the crossed out items are relevant.

I guess those "items" as you call them aren't relevant if you don't have them.

Those "items" prove he's on another level from all the rest.

He sets new levels for what a fighter can be and do with his own career. He's not just a fighter who gets beat up all his career and then retires broke because his manager and promoter robbed him blind.

Floyd is calling himself TBE because of ALL those "items".

They may not mean much to you but that's because none of those crossed out "items" are within your reach OR "Illegal Handwraps" Tito Trinidad's reach.

Pathetic! Sore loser you are.

What a borefest, Floyd is the new Wald and the sooner he retires the better. No one will watch his fight in September.

I will. Floyd is the best fighter of our generation, he might be the best ever. I'll be gutted when he retires.

Where have you been? Please do not come back.

So you don't want me to come back because I show appreciation for a skilled boxer on a boxing forum? What do you think this place is for?

I think it's ridiculous to call Floyd Mayweather Jr. hype. Of our generation he has soundly beaten everyone there is to fight. Everyone fans have accused him of ducking he came back and he beat them. Floyd is good fir boxing. The world tunes in to watch him fight. Just look at the numbers he does. Then you all criticise him for winning until he fights next time, when you will watch again.

I really hope we have another as skilled as him soon.

[Master]

Floyd is a fraud. He had a one armed, shot fighter in front of him and was paid an astronomical amount of money and he had a duty to entertain the public. He did not, he stole the money and run. I am not going applaud that.

NO, though I don't agree with you, stay. Welcome back @bzkfn don't listen to Master he is probably just wired after having an accidental non-caffeine free coffee or some non herbal tea. He was I believe, jesting. We are down to Viking Eric and Canelo now, so you must come back on diversity grounds alone.

His skill set is certainly admirable although I would never call him TBE. Even the term TBE is a bit retarded. These things are only ever going to be opinions because of the long history that boxing has. You can't match fighters across eras unless it is hypothetically, but it is quite easy to envisage several fighters from the past giving Mayweather kittens and a big headache when he is brought round.

Rocco, stick to insulting Pactards and show a bit more respect for your boxing elders.

So... Floyd is "The Best Ever" because he has his own promotional company??
Because of what he gets paid??

... and I'm pathetic?


Anyway... what's with the "sore loser" quip?
I had little vested interest in that fight.
Sure I wanted Pac to win... but I knew Floyd would.
I just wanted a better fight.

... and of course you'll bring up the handwrap myth when ridiculed. You're like that little punk in "The Green Mile" who pissed his pants when Billy the criminal on Death Row grabbed him by the neck. Watch the movie.... he's just like you.

tbe!!!

[No Contest]

I was watching the replay on hbo(no way I'm paying 100 for any ppv) I fell asleep in about the 3rd round and woke up to Canelo knocking out Kirkland. 100 bucks is a damn expensive sleeping aid.
