Mayweather has run from his biggest challenge. The fans, even those who have ardently supported him through the years, will surely remember that. And the next time he dares to compare himself to one of boxing’s all-time greats, such as Sugar Ray Robinson or Sugar Ray Leonard, they’ll scoff.

It’s the fight the world wants to see. Me and Manny want to see it. Floyd, let the commission do their job. You don’t run the sport. Get in the ring and fight us.

Floyd Mayweather getting told by RA the Rugged Man

I hate Floyd Mayweather, so let’s get that out of the way. The way he talks, the cockiness, the reckless jabs saying he’s the best when he really isn’t, and more importantly — the way he fights.

I can’t respect a guy who thinks he’s the best when he hasn’t faced the best. Time and time again, he ducks and dodges great fighters in his own weight division and when does fight them — they clearly aren’t at their best. Why hasn’t he fought Shane Mosely, Miguel Cotto, or even shady looking Antonio Margarito? Why? Because he’s scared. Plain and simple.

Having a great legacy clearly isn’t something on Mayweather’s mind. It truly is all about the money for him. Makes sense since he changed his name from “Pretty Boy” to “Money”. All he wants to do is fight weak fighters (or undersize fighters), fight a boring fight, win, and get money. So much talent gone to waste.

Question: Do you think Floyd Mayweather should be considered the “Greatest of All-time” as he refers to himself?
