he did better than anyone against the goat since de la hoya.
And yes it does matter.
Does he have to wear his L's, yes
But duran has to wear the fact that he quit in his prime like a bytch
Mayorga got stopped a ton of times
margarito is a cheater which put all his wins prior to being caught in question
It doesn't matter..we aren't going to ignore the pre Robert Garcia part of his career...he was a champion in that part of his career too...and other fighters didn't struggle as much as Floyd did to hurt, drop, and beat him.

It matters because people are praising whom they felt he became.
I agree he has to wear those l's regardless
But also this cant be ignored:
duran has to wear the fact that he quit in his prime like a bytch
Mayorga got stopped a ton of times

Floyd stood right in front of Maidana and was letting him Teeoff in that 1st fight.. He was bullshytting to make that fight close so he could pull of selling a rematch to the public. Nothing y'all can say can convince me otherwise cause we seen the way Floyd fights before and after Maidana. He def was bullshytting in that 1st fight.Maidana would've gotten flatlined vs Pacquiao

Lets pretend like we wasn't all in unison saying"Floyd what the fukk are you doing" "Floyd use your legs" in those 1st 4 rounds vs Maidana

Am I though?
That fight didn't have to be close. Floyd allowed it to happen. Can't tell me otherwise.
We seen Floyd do this multiple times. He even admitted to it doing it vs McGregor
nikkas cant even give Maidana props for setting a trap on Mayweather without adding in extra hate
Regardless of your opinion on him as a fighter, the fact remains he had enough of an IQ to adjust, mid-fight, to a signature move from Floyd and bait him into throwing it so that Maidana could land a clean right hand. That was smart...and something the likes of Provodnikov or a Matthysse has not shown in their arsenal vs a fighter the level of Money Mayweather.
Dont be a hater

It matters except if you seriously believe the same version who lost to Devon by a shutout also the one who gave Floyd one of his toughest fights ever.
His improvemebt with Garcia was obvious and it showed in results too

LOL at nikkas being so cised off that one punch he landed that punch now all of a sudden Maidana has elite level ring IQ ability and awareness lol 
Maidana beat Broner's ass, so of course Broner's biggest supporter has to prop him up
Pacquiao landed Floyds own signature move on Floyd more than once when they fought.. Have you once seen Pac get any props for his IQ? Hell nah

Yea if you choose to ignore that Floyd fought differently in that fight vs Maidana

Where did I say this fool?
And you cant deny video which shows the truth...so beat it
Also, you talking this Pacquiao bullshyt. Link a video of Pacquiao adjusting and then setting a trap on Mayweather...or shut the fukk up
Maidana gave Floyd a much tougher fight than that Toradol abusing midget he scared to death of Crawford & lost to to substitute teacher
Then tell me why is it the only loss on maidana's record that was lopsided? This was a devon that was on a slide of suspect performances himself. They both moved up to 147 for the fight...maidana was not on a losing streak...he just got whipped...its boxing it happens
