I’m sorry but how is it respectable that Floyd went 50-0

Floyd realized that boxing fans have a death wish on their favorite fighters, so he decided to fight who he wanted after earning his stripes. Floyd wasn't going to be a crash dummy for Golovkin.


He also realized, there would always be another guy.

No matter who he beat, they'd come up with someone else.

We've all been in a situation in life where it feels like nothing you do is good enough and you just can't win. Floyd got there with boxing media.

They never glazed him like they did Canelo tonight.

The number is just the number. Most people just sayin 50-0 are casuals that don't know boxin. Every fighter wit a number got tuneup fights and weak opponents it don't mean the number on they record sayin they fought that many world class or ranked opponents. But then just peep the names and world class fighter he got one of the deepest resumes ever

Manny
Marquez
Canelo
Cotto
Hatton
Maidana
Mosley
Oscar
Castillo
Corrales
Hernandez
Zab
Baldomir
Manfredy
Gatti

That shyt is ridiculous. Casuals don't even know how great Corrales, Castillo, Hernandez wins are..... Them 3 up there wit almost any of his wins they just not as big names like others

I don’t care much about the undefeated records.

Floyd is an ATG for his abilities in the ring and accomplishments, not because he retired undefeated. Calzaghe retired at 46-0 but several guys in his era with losses were greater than him.

Marciano isn’t the best HW ever despite being 49-0

On KRS One's nose, eating sunflower seeds.
No one gets criticized like Floyd. The man beat everyone, never been knocked down, never got dominated, and never got exposed. All our favorite fighters do not have all of these attributes combined. But we still question and minimize him. Why? And please don’t talk about his corny love for money outside of the ring as being the reason. I guess it’s just the times we live in.

No one talks about Muhammad Ali’s exhibitions with wrestlers, but Floyd can’t box a respectable Berto and the biggest MMA star in McGregor?

Berto was a weird opponent to pick. Would've like to have seen him against a Erislandy Lara or young Spence or Thurman instead of Berto
