Or he feels great for the fight since he wasn’t cutting severely. Hard to say. I know Crawford isn’t young but I feel like Canelo has more miles on the odometer too

True true

Only a truthful post fight interview will let us know for sure lol …

I was thinking earlier how I think Canelo isn’t the same any more

And how I used to view him as a fighter that wanted only the best over money, for legacy and greatness

At least, that’s how I grew up seeing him

But then now I think he’s more about money than legacy,
Maybe as he knows he’s on the tail end of his career and his legacy and greatness is already established …

This fight speaks greatness to me though
A great length

It’s not GGG vs Canelo heavy in greatness
But it’s sturdy

Him fighting Floyd with a bum shoulder still bothers me to this day.

Would’ve loved seeing him knock him out in their primes. I think he could have

Or at minimum tune him up a bit. Prime Pac-Man was special

Yeah Floyd had problems with people creating angles and applying lots of pressure

Pacquiaos prime would’ve really gave him trouble

But I think… Floyd would’ve got him in both of their primes

He would’ve lost the first 4 rounds I think

Round 4-5 would’ve been closer to a coin toss

But then the rest might have been Floyd’s

But then I stop and think about the later half of the fight… Even if Floyd’s winning Pacquiao still would’ve just let it all go, even he’s getting beat badly… Which would trouble Floyd because usually people get adjusted when Floyd makes adjustments

Because they don’t wanna get played into an ass whooping doing the same thing over and over again

Yeah maybe. But I’m not sure if Floyd was as confident as you. He ducked him all those years for a reason, haha

Ahhh man lol

Maybe bro! Haha

Only Floyd knows

Deep down

Maybe he believes he didn’t and he did

Maybe

Behind those convincing masks of the best ever
There’s a face he doesn’t want to confront and may never

The face of fear

But perhaps, he didn’t duck him

Oh Man I wrote the wildest typo at the end

Good thing I caught it early

He sure wasn’t searching him out either :laughing:. Had years and years of opportunity to make that fight happen. It would’ve been the superfights of all superfights. Astronomical payday. So in my mind the fact that it didn’t happen tells me someone wasn’t too keen on stepping into that ring

I just remembered this lol

First time I’ve seen this lol.

Pacquiao was completely fearless. Purest form of a warrior. Mayweather wanted none of that imo

I remember the HBO and Showtime thing being one of the reasons

Which is kinda understandable… As so many fights didn’t happen because of these rival TV programs

I remember all of that. I don’t know man, when there’s a will there’s a way. When there isn’t, there are a lot of excuses as to why you can’t do something. That goes for just about everything in life

Makes me wonder when will he retire…
I think he just loves it man

Don’t get me wrong, Mayweather is obviously brilliant and a master of his craft. He just wasn’t one to want to mix things up and that rubbed a lot of the boxing purists the wrong way.

I don’t blame him for wanting his money and still having brains left to enjoy it at the end of his career.

I don’t know man but I don’t believe he ducked Antonio Margarito, he would’ve been taken to school easy

The rest, I don’t know, but I don’t believe it either except maybe for Pacquiao

I don’t really remember one of those guys from the list but I kinda do

The rest I’m not familiar with too much, which makes me believe that Floyd didn’t duck em

Just saw this post

I agree

If some one really wants it they let it all go

They give up the sponsors
They give up the money

They step in the ring by themselves and fight for themselves

Sugar Ray Robinson…
Is the greatest.

Even Muhammad Ali says so

He fought every one man

Lost once to Jake LaMotta and came back beat him 5 times in a row, five seperate nights
