    Picked Pacquiao to win. Ignore him.

      Floyd has a lot of names...but it's all about WHEN we fought them. None were at their best. It's all about TIMING -art of good match making.

        Like Pacquiao's? Any win can be discredited, there's always an excuse.

          The problem is Mayweather NEVER takes the risk. He only takes the top names when it's safe to do so. That's just fact

            How would he know it's safe? The only fight Many really lost before the Mayweather fight was with Marquez and he was beating the hell out of Marquez before the KO. You guys act like Floyd is some psychic who knows exactly the right time to face an opponent. Maybe they just werent good enough to beat him.

              The right time would have been at his pinnacle, "09, "10. You know that man. I think any sane person would have given him full credit if he beat him then and it's more than likely he would have back then, too. He beat everyone, but if you think his win over a guy like Mosley at age 40 is as good a win as when Vernon Forrest beat him, then you couldn't be more wrong. Not every win is the same.

                Manny fans need to get over the loss already. Shane, Manny and delacoka didn't fight Floyd in their primes for the same reason guys are not fighting GGG.

                  No offense guy, but anything can happen in a fight ... anything!!!

                  Here's a fact for you that is indisputable: Every opponent that has had a chance to face Floyd, showed up at their very best, because of the magnitude of the fight and the prestige it would bring if they won.

                  That is a fact that is often overlooked.

                    Dude, are you even capable of grasping the idea of "independent scientific analysis"?

                    Your opinion doesn't mean shit in the grand scheme of things. So you can spew BS non-stop, because you don't have any credentials on the line when you spew that shit. Show some scientific data that calculates the damage done to the human body when boxing, and the aging effects of KO's and brutal fights.

                    When did you become the authority on the effects of boxing on the human body?

                    You freakin guys get a facebook\twitter social media account, and all of a sudden start believing your own spewed bullshit. Just because you state something doesn't make it accurate or even remotely plausible. You can delude yourself all you want, but to me you're just another guy with an unsubstantiated opinion, nothing more.

                      Nunn was rated in the top 3 p4p in the world at the time. He'd been on a great run and almost no one favoured Toney. He was undefeated and prime. This fight was actually before i was born but I've read up on it.


                      James was getting outboxed at range for most of the fight, then he pounced when Nunn got complacent. It was an A class win.
