Easiest job in boxing..Mayweather's cutman and trainer..."Here's what I want you to do"..."Just keep doing what your doin"...Genius!!
lmao
LOL!
so true...rafael garcia has had to close like 1 cut in his career lmao
+The Genius Looool
Lol
Man I fucking love rewatching these old fights! Especially when they include the ring walks and some build up! They take me back a bit, just awesome.
Glad I started looking up boxers during this corona quarantine stuff. It's getting addicting
Now you olay boxing games too lol
The haters challenged Floyd to go toe to toe with Coto.....he did just that.....and showed his brilliance once again.
Everytime I watch Floyd I I feel like Eddie Murphy in Coming to America... "That boy good!!" 🤣😭💀
Jaleel Hunter same!!! 😂
Jaleel Hunter Yeah! Good and terrible....terribly efficient with his great defense and marvelous fists.
lol facts
Lmmfao🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
...But compared to Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano ain't sh*t!" Haha
This was such an underrated fight. Incredibly entertaining.

you mad? what soaked your tampon? lol
Incredible display of skill on both their parts.
yurii l o v e oh.
I know, this one ain't boring at all.
Probably Floyd’s best performance, it showed his ability to adapt to new standings and how great his IQ is. Crazy cause he was about to be 35 years old here and wasn’t even in his full prime
He was past his prime prime
Off eye it was one of his worse performances and Im sure team Floyd agrees and switched to Floyd Sr as Roger was old......Floyd couldnt break Cottos guard, and off eye from round 1 Floyd didnt like the thud and physical strength of Cotto, usually Floyd is able to bully guys in the clinch even Canelo he did that but vs Cotto he couldn't move him....The fight that showed me he wasn't razor sharp with his straight right no more or lost confidnece in it, a older pulling the trigger thing, Floyd showed age and wrinkles the first time in the ring that night....And even threatened to retire after the punishment Cotto caused him. Brutal match a war both ways
Nah, Diego Corrales was his best performance. Corrales at the time was almost as good as Cotto was here and Floyd was WAY more dominant against him.
@@Bulmas_Panties Corrales was nothing close to Cotto bro, what did you just say? 😭 You got to watch more Corrales and Cotto man
he had a lot of big fights later in his career but he was obviously past his prime physically
Unstoppable force meets unmovable object! the level of fittness and skill of Both these guys demands respect! Cotto is just relentless and floyds accuracy is off the charts
1st January 2019 I made it to the new year. God bless whoever made it to 2019, let all your dreams come true
Thanks that made my day 👍
You too brother! keep up the good vibes 🐈🌿

I love Tony Weeks as a Ref he doesn’t get involved unless it’s absolutely necessary he lets fighters fight out of holds and just stays clear of action
Shane Pleasants did you hear how mayweather “tips” him $25K after every fight
@@caseypagan why floyd seems more stronger here
MaddWiz - If that was the case, wouldn’t he let them hold longer? I mean all of his haters say that he runs and HOLDS. So what you said doesn’t make sense. 😒
completely agree
Agree
Floyd Mayweather is so skilled and precise. His every move is calculated. It's amazing!! He's sharp, never underestimated any opponent. Stayed on point for 20 years. He's the definition of "greatness "
Floyd ducked the best opponents throughout his career.
@@MrMarco855 like?
Drug addict and bullshitter is my take.
He so skilled no one sees when he's breaking the rules? You don't know them it's the way he likes his lil culo
@@Raja-nh8jr To begin with, the best opponents he fought were all available for many years before Floyd fought them. Pacquiao, Oscar, Mosley and Cotto were available but Floyd didn't fight any of them until 11 years after his career began. It took him 14, 16 and 19 years respectively before he fought Cotto, Mosley and then Pacquiao. You don't have to try to make excuses for him in each case because in general, it's suspicious that the best all came late in his career. Who did he duck? Paul Williams, Vernon Forrest, Joel Casamayor, Margarito, Joshua Clottey, Erislandy Lara, Tim Bradley, Kostya Tszyu, Shawn Porter and all of the newer welterweights like Thurman, Kell Brook, Danny Garcia, Terence Crawford and Errol Spence. He could have challenged himself by fighting at least one or two of these guys. The self proclaimed GOAT should have to do something to prove it, but he didn't. There are others over the years that Floyd carefully avoided, choosing guys like Victoriano Sosa and Henry Bruseles instead of the top shelf guys. Before fighting Oscar in 2007, look at the names on his resume. He was well established at or near the top of the p4p list before fighting Oscar, yet these are his 8 fights before Oscar; Victoriano Sosa,...Philip N'Dou,...DemarcusCorley,...Henry Bruseles,...Arturo Gatti,...Sharmba Mitchell,...ZabJudah,...and Carlos Baldomir. There are only a couple of names that are familiar to most on that list. Even those guys were fought under suspicious circumstances. When Floyd fought Zab for example, Zab had just lost to 35 year old Baldomir, making him compromised. Rarely does a top guy fight someone that just loss to a lesser opponent. Floyd did that many times. He fought Corley just after he lost to,......Zab Judah. Henry Bruseles last fight was a draw against Enor Julio. Victoriana Sosa just fought to a draw against Lamar Murphy. Justin Juuko just lost to Antonio Hernandez. Sharmba Mitchell lost to Kostya Tszyu. Victor Ortiz last fight was a draw against Lamont Perterson at 140 lbs. Why did Floyd fight Ortiz right after Victor couldn't beat Peterson in a lower weight division? In 17 of his last 40 fights Floyd fought an opponent that lost or had a draw in his last fight or the fight before. Some lost several fights in a row. Floyd also fought 6 guys who fought exclusivley in their own country prior to fighting him, meaning they were on a lower level. He also fought several guys that were smaller then himself. Marquez for example had almost 50 fights at 130, only 2 fights at 135, then Floyd fought him at 147. Juan never fought above 135, there were a dozen or more good welterweights waiting in line, but Floyd chose a super featherwight/lightweight instead. Embarrassing. There were several others that fought smaller all of their career until they fought Floyd. Some had just one fight at 147, like Ricky Hatton. 3 fights before he fought Floyd at 147 he had a single fight at 147 but his other 44 fights were at 140. Hatton was a smaller guy most will tell you. Guerrero fought at 130, then a few fights at 135, then straight to 147 for just 2 fights, then he fought Floyd. Under those circumstances the guy that just moved up is still considered a smaller man. Sharmba Mitchell had more then 50 fights at 140, then fought Floyd at 147. Floyd's career is not what he claims it is, it's littered with cherry picked opponents. The truth is that Floyd fought a low number of fights overall. Of the 50 fights he had, maybe 10 or so were fights against good opponents who weren't compromised in some way. Many believe he lost some of those, including against Oscar, Pacquiao, Maidana and Castillo. That's why Floyd's career is more of a sham to me than anything. He went out like a dud by fighting Berto and Conor Mcgregor, a fight that shouldn't even count on his record.
One of my favorite Floyd fights. Cotto is a warrior. Floyd’s defense is just impenetrable.
Yeah broken nose and all.

One of the best battles between 2 of the greatest boxers in history.
Such fighters they can make you fall in love with this sport ,thanks for the effort
Great fight. Both fighters fought hard. Great fight. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
What a fight! I actually forgot how good this fight was. One of the greatest matchups ever.
Agreed. I kind of think Floyd was intentionally taking it easy at times, which the commentators mention too, but if he was, I don't think he intended to get punched in the face that much
Mayweather's boxing knowledge in the ring is unreal, slipping punches, catching punches, weaving punches, rolling punches, sliding punches, Footwork, head movement, reaction time, he is too good.
Ali; you on point yo. He even moves forward, close to a fighter to make him over-shoot the punch. Watch him make fighters punch behind his waist.
@steveninthe not even close to the best ever. He got beat by Castilo and fought his biggest rivals out of their prime.
@Nobby Barnes he's overrated. Get over it.
@steveninthe He's without a doubt in the conversation. However, my gripe with considering him the best over names like Ali was because Floyd's generation of competition was no where even remotely close to as grueling as the heavyweight divisions were of old and anyone who truly knows boxing knows this to be true. Also, back in Ali's days, fights were longer which meant more conditioning and more room for danger. Anyone saying Floyd is overrated is an absolute fool and should go back to sleep, but I don't think he's the best ever. The heavyweight division in the 70s-80s were just flat out more competitive and Fighters had much higher hills to climb.
@Bohanable Bo I understand where you are coming from, but it's no mystery how much more dangerous the heavyweight divisions are and technically, you have to be more sound in a battle where every single punch has absolute game changing power. I'm not sure how long you have been watching boxing, but Floyd's competition was and never will be at the level that the heavyweight division was of the 70s and 80s. There is a reason that era was the golden age of boxing. Every match was a blockbuster event. I respect the hell out of Floyd and I will repeat myself again, he was one of the Greatest there will ever be, but we need to acknowledge facts.
Love how in the clinch they very rarely were hugging. Constantly worked themselves out and were banging on the inside. Tony weeks didn't have to do much!
He is know to be one of the refs to allow the fight to take it’s course and not over referee the fight. Cotto cut off the ring well and didnt allow floyd to hug which forced floyd to fight on the inside, which is also one of floyd’s specialties. Floyd avoided this ref after this fight though 😂
One of Floyd’s best fights! Cotto is a tough contender! Great job by both fighters!

Not in the Pacquiao fight though. Slow motion shows Floyd getting his ass kicked and using his laces trying to cut Pacquiao's face.
@@MrMarco855 yea Pacquiao beat the shit out of Mayweather's gloves... seriously Pac only hit his gloves the most and i watched it in super slomo.
Cotto was definitely one of Mayweather's toughest opponents. People don't give Mayweather enough credit for his chin. He ate some big shots from Cotto.
Zab Judah was more
Compton Compton Cotto made Floyd bleed his nose in this fight tho
@@maynardacosta9520 Maidana was tougher
Compton Compton mayweather himself said this fight he had to take cold showers and his body still hurt after this one
Hmm, I don't think so. He only seemed tough because Floyd played the ropes, to give Cotto opportunities to make the fight look more exciting. In the middle of the ring, Mayweather dominated him, without much effective countering from Cotto. Considering this, the fight was no more difficult than Floyd allowed it to be. Maidana was definitely one of his toughest, though.
“I came in the game to take the least damage and make the most money” “I still have my mind”🤷🏾♂️🤩💚🙏🏾

Two great fighters here, both Legends
To all the Pacfraud fans this is how you cutoff the ring. Cotto put on a performance 100000x better then Manny put on. I respect Cotto the way not only how he fought but how he made not 1 excuse after he lost.He lost but he put on one of the best performances ive seen against Mayweather. This is a fight that needs a rematch.Not because it Floyd should have lost , but because it was a really good fight.
Manuel Sanchez Well said
Manuel Sanchez You need to see how Pacquiao blasted Cotto again.
Manuel Sanchez I am a bit of a Pacquiao fan - don't know why everybody hates on him though... Although the excuse about his shoulder was bad Yes - you are right Cotto did way better than Pacquiao did against Mayweather At least you are praising Cotto though and not calling Pacquiao fans 'casuals' (I am GGG&crawford guy btw) P.S - dunno about you, doesn't that tick you off when most of Floyd fans (who are casual fans who like him because of his race) go around calling ever one else 'casuals' when you say... "I do not think Mayweather is the best boxer of all time" and "I don't like Mayweather because of his attitude"
Stealth Hobo Your right it dosnt look good when Floyd fans call someone a "casual fan" just because they dont think Floyd is TBE , everyone has there opinion and there entitled to it. Im a Big Floyd fan , Always buy his fights , have a TMT hat , and have even been to some of his fights and i cant say he is TBE cause its not true in my opinion. I think he is definitely top 5 or 6 but I just cant Rate him Above Fighters like Sugar Ray Robinson or Ali.
Manuel Sanchez Thats pretty cool - so what fights have u seen and how long have u liked floyd? I dont like him as a person but like the way he boxes - my favorite back in the days when he was pretty boy was dela hoya Would have been nice to see a fight between a more in form and prolific dela hoya with floyd - think that would have made a good fight. Floyd ran a bit in that fight too but it was the intelligent thing to do so i cant blame him + dela hoya got tired. Think that was why the fight got a bit messy.
Floyd always looks the same from round one to round 12. In terms of energy. And freshness
Rich Muttsmusic surprised he wasn’t running the ropes this one
AOBeezy I’m sorry my friend. I tend to stay away from the bias and casual conversations. Be safe and stay healthy !!! Blessings.
It's because he doesn't waste energy on mindless shots....his accuracy is on point ...he lands most of what he throws....
@@richmuttsmusic2476 you made my day
joe link salute.
When you realize that Mayweather was soooo good that he intentionally allowed Cotto to keep him on the ropes just to make the fight more entertaining. At no point did Cotto throw a shot that Floyd didn't see coming. At no point did Cotto have Floyd in one ounce of trouble. Y'all really need to appreciate how high his boxing IQ was!!!!!
Bro you don’t know what you talking about your just a fan of mayweather
@@AxerqsYT explain

@@dbfive0 dude is a joke. Floyd destroyed cotto in his own game. Easy work. They’re just haters.
Bullshit cotto pushed him they’d couldn’t escape
Round 1: Maywheather Round 2: Maywheather Round 3: Maywheather Round 4: Maywheather Round 5: Maywheather Round 6: Cotto Round 7: Draw Round 8: Cotto Round 9: Draw Round 10: Draw Round 11: Maywheather Round 12: Maywheather Cotto should've fought back with Maywheather in rounds 1-5. He probably could've won a round or forced a couple of draws. He seemed like he was taking too long trying to figure him out or was hoping he would get really tired in the later rounds but either way he paid the price and lost by alot. Still Cotto consistently kept great pressure on Maywheather and he showed alot of heart and determination with tremendous toughness and a confident attitude throughout the match even when knowing he was gonna lose a round and then eventually the entire fight itself. Maywheather was literally perfect, the offense and defense from start to finish.
This fight just showed how special Mayweather is and also Cotto, Mayweather just got the best of it. Clearly Floyd won but Cotto didn't look bad at all, He did his thing.

Count punch for punch.. Cotto won
Cotto was Floyd toughest fight ,2 great Champion given US a great fight.

Boris l Right. It’s 2020 now and this fight doesn’t even seem that long ago.
Mayweathers’ defence is absolutely on point, never takes damage with pinpoint accuracy from both hands.
Coming back to watch old stuff I have a lot more appreciation for Floyd's fights now that he is retired, since I hated him while he was active. Absolute masterful technique in all his fights

Technically Floyd is THE best boxer i've ever seen,his style is just about perfect,he's my favourite boxer of all time,the one i copy in the gym when i box
he has the stats to prove it,connect ratio defence stats accuracy stats,they're all there
He is the best professional boxer i've ever seen!!!
2020 and watching this closely.floyd is just on another planet. Cotto was an animal and did great work. But floyd just keeps adjusting...great work for 50-0
His head was exposed
Cotto is undoubtedly one the greatest champions we've ever had in Puerto Rico. Mayweather is simply the best ever. Unlike Pacquiao he never needed steroids to do his thing, Floyd retired undefeated because he was flawless inside the square circle.
Nunca había visto a Mayweather sangrar solo cotto lo puso así excelente boxeador tenía un estilo de pelea bonito sus parados todo único soy mexicano pero cotto mis respetos
yea i also think paq was on some juice fs
If you don’t think all of the elites were in juice you might not really know what’s going on. Across every sport they’re on it. Floyd has been linked to it too.
Watch this; 'did Floyd Mayweather get caught using ped's'?, you'll see the truth. Floyd snorted dope in his dressing room before every fight. Watch the video, it's only 1:10, you'll see the truth.
@@MrMarco855 Floyd took an illegal iv/saline before this very fight. Which also mask steroids by the way.
This fight was action packed . each fighter did an excellent job. #NoRegrets
30:40 that adjustment with the right hand behind cotto's guard is a thing of beauty
He was smacking that man's ear with precision that round. He really had some great combos throughout the fight both on the outside and inside on the ropes.
Absolute
On top of that the women look the same on purpose ( circus/bread money Mayweather
After re-watching today, I scores it 119-113 Floyd Money Mayweather. Some rounds I gave it a draw, which is 10 to each boxer. Amazing fight by Floyd Money Mayweather
Wow floyd is great his timing is perfect he truly is the best pound for pound fighter in the world and maybe the best ever nobody can deny it just watch this man he was born to box!!
Watch this fight, the Canelo fight, then Gatti, and Corrales; it's hard to argue with Floyd's claims about himself. He is certainly the best boxer I have ever seen.
+RealTalk100 The way he schooled Canelo was something else.
+Gareth Barry go watch a roy jones jr fight between 1992-2000, thats the best boxer you'll ever see

ardak1984 he's undeniable people say he fights people when their over the hill when he's old as shit kicking ass tbe
same here been a Mayweather fan since 2012
People may not like his attitude outside his ring, but you know the man worked hard for this. He boxed with great passion and love. Thats the only thing that probably prevented him from driving nuts with all that money he has. Effort and dedication. You can hate, but you can't deny facts.
ardak1984 you must’ve missed his early career. You would’ve been a fan along time ago
These are two fierce fighters showing mutual respect to one another the whole fight. Much love for both boxers.
what a beautiful match!
@ the end of Round 4, the look on Cotto's facial expression was that of: "I just can't beat this guy, he's too fast"...
What a great fight. Watched this live 8 years ago and enjoyed watching it again. Mayweather is a super athlete and boxer. Cotto really came to fight

With his fish net stockings on under his pants
Just like me... But, no chance this man looses. Respect to that. The only one who can brag about that is Floyd.
Cotto got this guy against the ropes 27:06, and he figures, you know what I still can't hit this guy. Lets reset and go back to the middle of the ring. That's how good Floyd was/and is in this fight.
No shit Lol 🤣
Most will never understand how amazing that is.
With Floyd shaking his head at Cotto as they left the ropes. Mayweather is unbelievable man
Lol coto also dodge
for real, even at 35minsish, cotto has him in the corner and he's still on on defense from floyd
Cotto caught so many perfect shots and still fought to the end. This was a very tough fight for Mayweather.

I preferred the defense at 52:53 to the end of that round. Looked like Floyd was swatting flies.
MrMarco855 hell no. The way he was on the ropes, nowhere to go, a stationary target, and he used the shoulder roll to deflect/evade every shot, and even return an uppercut with the right was amazing.
that was amazing omg
Love that they lowered the commentary volume
Quien en esta cuarentena 2020 viendo esta pelea.😎
This is IMO the best version of Mayweather in the 2nd half of his career. Economical with his work rate. Throwing sharp punches. Mixing it up. Controlling the distance with his jab. Pot shots from the outside. Cotto was kept off balance most of the fight. Mayweather just has a knack for drastically slowing down the work rate of his opponent with movement and his offense.
Marquez and Shane Mosley was when he was at his best .
Cotto gave floyd a tougher fight than manny.
+brmillgr MAYWEATHER LOST TO PAQUIAO YOU MORON!! MAYWEATHER ONLY LANDED 67 TOTAL PUNCHES VS 91 FOR PAQUIAO!!! ITS VIDEO PROVEN!!!

We love these guys. Great artists.
At 34:49 Cotto has Mayweather on the backfoot and throws like 5-6 shot combo and basically lands nothing, and Mayweather comes back with the shoulder roll with a beautiful counter punch right on the button, amazing work, thats what separates him from the rest, its about the quality not the quantity.
james allen Great point. Floyd stays relaxed & finds opportunity THEN accepts *NO RETURN FIRE! TBE 50-0*

When I first saw this i thought Cotto won. Years later i realize how good Mayweather did. I'm not a big time Floyd fan, but he showed his best in this fight. What a performance
r Burgz what was u watching them u must’ve been i child and u saw cotto throwing a lot of punches but not landing 😂🤷🏾♂️
@@southeastdc007 most casual fans think alot of punches to gloves and arms count on the scorecards
I think his best performances were Corrales and Gotti
Jaleel Hunter And Canelo
Getting Back To The Old Me the blood on the face speaks otherwise
Cotto is a true gentleman and professional.
real isrealite That’s must be why he left the ring without giving a post-fight interview. Smh. 50-0. TBE.
Know need in disrespecting either fighter. These are legends and are Hall of Famers.
Cotto is the real winner in this fight
real isrealite he left the ring without giving a interview. When broner did that they said it was unprofessional
Rich Muttsmusic well he’s black so he plays by different rules
thnx
Round 5 in the corner, beautiful. That, was a joy to watch, over and over. You can tell they enjoyed it as well, they had to dap each other afterwards. That was good boxing right there.
1:01:25 Roger Mayweather almost killed Floyd with the water 😂😂😂
That water was his toughest opponent
@@sundrowned4631 😂😂😂
Ahhahah
I’m dying
Shit was funny as hell
a few things from this fight 1. floyd didnt lose a round until round 6 2. cotto's flurries were not landing they were glancing off of floyd's shoulders all night 3. floyd LOVES the ropes, its important to understand that floyd is like a spider, he lures guys into the ropes and they get their 3 punch flurries off and he still continues to counter and jab coming off the ropes, those wild flurries leave them open to be countered and jabbed to death, most guys just cover up and wait for the other guy to punch himself out. floyd punches out of the corner and off the ropes. 4. floyd could have taken cotto out probably in the 10th, cotto was gassed and it was evident in round 12. 5. this is probably floyd's best fight that showed his ring IQ, skill and ability to be an aggressive fighter whenever he wants, floyd used maybe 3 different guards in this fight, when he is in high guard he is LETHAL. when he is aggressive he lands mass amounts of punches, his punch timing is impeccable. 6. he worked the jab all night and it kept cotto at bay and made him have to fight a "maidana" style type of fight trying to smother floyd but that never works. 7. floyd is probably the best fighter of all time that can fight offensively in a defensive position in the corner or on the ropes, he can basically fight in a phone booth. 8. if you think this fight was closer that 10-2 you're a DCAF.
I totally agree💯💯
actually, i thought Cotto won round 5 and called 6 even. i also gave Cotto round 8. 9-2 and one even in favor of Floyd.
Mayweather was even better in the Canelo fight. Cotto made Mayweather feel awkward with the constant jabs to the nose.
You smart.
at least we saw mayweather adjust faster than any other pure boxer. if floyd's hands were better, he would be the perfect boxer/puncher. that is what makes him a great fighter because only GOD IS PERFECT GIVE HIM CREDIT FOR TALKING SHIT AND BACKING IT UP
Cotto picked up Mayweather to tell his fans and friends in the crowd, "Look, I know Floyd is kicking my butt, but I'm still stronger than he is." Cotto's motto is: Machismo even in defeat.
He walked around Oscar like "I'll deal with you next" 😏and he did. 💯
This was well after the Oscar fight
lol this was waay later, at this time Oscar had probably retired....was here promoting fight
Lol. Casual.
He already beat Oscar DeLa Hoya. This was his 2nd fight at 154. That's why he didn't get the credit he deserves for beating him. Pacquiao fought him after Floyd did. And Manny Pacquiao fought him at 147lbs and 8oz gloves. At that point Oscar didn't have a fight at that weight class in 10 years. When Floyd wanted to fight at 147lbs Golden Boy said hell no.
🤦🏾♂️
He was so ok with being hated, and he didn't let it affect his performance. Aside from his boxing, I admire his ability to thrive through the hate. That's a lesson for life guys (especially for black people). Keep on smiling, even if they hate it. Because they will hate it. Don't let their boos and sour faces stop you.
Well said! I think all Black people have the thickest skin, and strongest will. They have too. Especially in a world that has been euro brainwashed to hate them. You have to keep pushing forward and ignore them all. Because like you said, it's almost guaranteed that they will hate you. But you can't control their fear, only your own. So screw them, and succeed regardless.
Wis Dom victims A lot of you black Americans got victim mentality it’s annoying man the world doesn’t owe you shit and nobody is against you.
Get a grip. Boxing is business not personal. If he was hated so much would he be even be shown by the networks which I recall are not black owned.
@@busybikes9733 We're fine. You are the one who needs to get a grip. They had to show him because he was fighting guys who they were hoping would beat him. Stop minimizing facts, acting like boxing is the only facet were Blacks are hated. There's ALREADY a hater commenting in this thread. Lmao!!
@@Wis_Dom how can blacks be so hated in boxing when Ali is the most famous sportsman ever. And correct me if I'm wrong but mayweather chose his own fights.
STILL A GOOD FIGHT TO WATCH IN 2020
Dood you are amazing .You are the best
MAAAANNN! Talk About "🥊 YOUR BOXING CLINIC🥊 " Outstanding
24:10 lol floyds reflexes is unmatched.
He was also watching it, I don’t like Floyd but you can hate how composed and skilled he is
In his era yes he is unmatched, in other era's no he is matched. Don't forget the greats of the past. Too many to mention had incredible reflexes, Ali, Tyson, Jones Jr, Pep, Burley, Robinson, Leonard, Toney, on and on it goes. Study your history. Lomencho is the man now with extra ordinary reflexes. Every generation has their own. And there will be so many more.
and he looks fresh from start to finish, doesn't waste his energy just launching attacks. best counter puncher
@@bigacellc8802 The hell? How are you gonna leave Sweet Pea off that list?
@@DiaAkin Again too many to mention. No doubt Sweet Pea taught Floyd Jr a lot too. Pea had his time. Incredible defense. I am friends with one of Sweet Pea's uncle's here in Brooklyn. Ironically his nick name is Pee Wee. Hahaha. Good dude too. Salute.
Cotto's fan here... But loved the way Mayweather apprached this match. He put more power behind his punches, was willing in the exanges, was balanced on attack and defense. Some say that this wasn't a typical masterpiece ny Floyd, or that he took some unneccesary punches but, he was fighter-boxer-genious that Night. After that fight, no doubt that he would remain undefeated the rest of the way. Floyd so damn great that no fighter 175 under could best him. Just thinking... How about a young-prechamp André Ward and Floyd bout? By the way, the round girls were of extreme quality.
When a floid goon says love 🤣
It's not winning its a tie
Floyd would take Andre ward apart…
Respect to both !
A simply stunning legendary Master Pugilist - Floyd Mayweather - Poetry in Motion
Best defensive fighter ever, top 3 boxer of all time aka goat
Idiot. You can't compare this bitch to Ali, Robinson,Duran,Leonard even Chavez or joe louis
+Boxing Fan 1 ail and floyd are the only all around fighters. and sugar ray.
never lost... pretty easy to compare him.
+K teK You can be undefeated if you always fought past his prime fighters.
Stupid argument. 1. Because all the people you mentioned fought people past their prime. Its part of the sport. 2. Also, because Emanuel Augustus, Diego Corrales, Victor ortiz, zab judah, Hatton (undefeated at the time)not past their prime. Went up in weight to fight Oscar and Cotto. Shane Mosley wasnt past his prime. Canelo and Maidana also were not past their prime. It just doesn't make sense. Give a guy credit for what he has done. 3. Plus Pacquiao might be older now but so was floyd. Neither were in their prime for that.
That was impressive. Floyd punches harder than people think and his timing is stupid. He never misses. Never seen anything like it.
Actually unbelievable how smart Floyd is, and people always saying he’s “Running”
Christian Green yea they’re casuals lmao
