Comments Thread For: Robert Garcia: Everyone Loses, Mayweather No Exception

[Jewel]

No, Here's a quick history lesson for you. Did you know that on two different occasions, Floyd tried to secure a bout with Shane. The first offer was at lightweight in which Shane rejected, and instead, moved up to welterweight. That took place in 1999. And the second time was after Shane KO'd Vargas and again Shane rejected the offer. So that discredits your Shane argument.

Moving right along, "Cotto".
Anyone who knows boxing knows that Cotto, like most of Arum's potential cashcows, was a protected fighter. Arum wouldn't let Mayweather anywhere near Cotto. This is all history, do your research. I challenge you to produce just one clip, an article or video, of Cotto or Arum pursuing a potential bout with Mayweather. How do you duck a guy who's not pursuing you? Your Cotto argument has just been discredited.

I'm really not going to comment too much on Cheato, he's a disgusting, disgrace to boxing. For you to think that Floyd ducked that cheating scum really boggles the mind, not to mention that he was KO'd by Shane, beaten unrecognizable by Pac and stopped by Cotto. And you actually think that Floyd duck this guy. I tell ya, you can't make this stuff up, life is truely stranger than fiction.

I'm not going get into the whole Pac thing, that's an endless debate. But I will say that it is well documented that Pac turned down numerous lucrative offers. You didn't actually believe that, "I'M SCARED OF NEEDLES ", story, did you?

Retirement?

[ElCaneloAlvarez]

I agree. And I like el Chino, but Floyd is not supposed to lose this fight. If Maidana however, were to pull this one off, I think I might have to streak around my whole neighborhood naked. It'd probably be the greatest victory I've witnessed in my 2 decade span of a fan of boxing.

100% guaranteed Chino gives Floyd his toughest fight in 5 years.

[JHAVIS]

Of course your not, because you know the truth about it. Mayweather avoided him well before any cheating allegations took place, before Shane beat him.

You are doing the exact thing you accuse others of doing in the rest of your post. Re-aligning history.

Floyd fought Oscar to get where he is now. Both in my opinion were high risk fights but the oscar fight had the bigger reward.

i stopped reading right there......

i know what you mean.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

That last sentence is not true at all, you can best everyone you face before you retire it just isn't easy to do. Oscar could have been undefeated, none of his losses was he dominated in, he played a part in all of his own losses and he could have easily been undefeated or with 1 loss with minor adjustments. Sure, it's a hypothetical, but it's also hypothetical to assume floyd would lose some of Oscars fights for example. Anything can happen in the ring.

The last sentence is very true. HA

But no ones goes thru undefeated if you continually fight the very best year in year out....

No one has ever been able to do it in the entire history of the sport, that actually fought top guys every year...

Floyd i think has come the closest, he has had a great run

[ElCaneloAlvarez]

As a floyd fan and a Manny fan I agree with this post. One must be objective with boxing.

You're a Manny fan?

I remember the Henry Brussels fight was supposed to be check fight for a potential Mayweather/Cotto fight, since Brussels had the same style and trainer as Cotto, just not as skilled. The problems between Mayweather and Top Rank along with the beat down Mayweather put on Brussels ended that talk real quickly. Mayweather pretty much toyed with Brussels most of the fight and spent a few rounds talking to the commentators about sports during the fight before finally finishing off Brussels in the eighth round. Kinda wish Mayweather put on more performances like this.

If I had FRAUD's Mindset, FRAUD SHOULD AVOID GGG, Like a Case of The Clap!!!
Were not talking About a Fight; It would be an EXECUTION!!!

At Floyd's level, its a business. He knows that and his team knows that. He has nothing left to prove. He could fight a garbage man and people would still pay to see him, and he'll still make millions.The "0" is his greatest marketing tool. You guys will say he needs to fight X or he lost to X, but at the end of the day he's the highest paid athlete, he has his health, and his family is financially secured for life. If anyone else can tell me a better position to be in, while being a boxer please tell me.

Nearly every great fighter in boxing history has suffered a loss. Very few fighters walked away undefeated. Fighters like Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Sugar Ray Leonard, Roy Jones Jr., George Foreman, Sugar Ray Robinson and Marvin Hagler were all perceived to be invincible at certain points of their respective careers. All of them suffered defeats.

Trainer Robert Garcia believes the same thing will happen to Floyd Mayweather Jr. (45-0, 26KOs), stating - "The very best fighters have lost. Leonard lost, Ali lost."

I'm not sure what Robert's problem with fighting Gamboa is. I'm a Mikey Garcia fan and believe he'll beat Gamboa hands down, but don't get why his team is avoiding little Gamboa.
