I think people hate him too because of he is a black man. Am sorry but you know deep down even with all his cockyness if he was white and showing off he wont be hated as much. Thats my opinion.

Yes, play the race card. Whites are so racist smh.
That's so ridiculous.

its clear nearly everyone in this thread knows absolutely nothing about boxing and outside of this superfight, do not keep up with the sport.

its called ring generalship. Floyd's been fighting like this for years and by this point, his opposition should know what to do and they ALL claim to have a plan to cut him off inside the ring, including pac's trainer Freddie roach. Yet, when they actually meet him they're punching shadows and Floyd utilises his jab to perfection. Floyd'd the most intelligent fighter I've ever seen.

despite this, after they lose decisively, it's the "he ran" card.

48-0. deal with it.

White people need to stop hating. It was a fight. Fighters aren't suppose to be nice and act like little wussies. Cockyness builds confidence and it's his mental state that helped him win all of his fights. You can hate his personality all you want but he's the best fighter in the world. Deal with it.

Mayweather said he will retire this year.

This is why I dislike him
[video]https://youtu.be/MPw9fjmT0Z0?t=41s[/video]

But that's just me

All I heard was
"White people this"
"White people that"
Sounds like evil whitey is out to get him.

Sure, maybe other whites hate Mayweather for that. We hate his fighting style, yes, maybe that's some kind of strategy. Sure, that might not be against the rules. But heck, this fight was dubbed the fight of the century. We didn't expect this. Pacquiao did his part, threw his punches. What we expected? Some dodging then punch back. Some more, action. Not just running around. Heck, I don't know what the hugging's for. This isn't boxing without the punches. All those boos, even from his own people? Maybe they saw it too. That even if they're on Mayweather's country, they knew Pacquaio should've won. And I ain't bitter, I won from a bet caz Mayweather won. But I think Pacquiao should've won. (And this aint cuz Im from his country .__.) Peace out

I don't mind it when sportsman are cocky to be honest(which is the main criticism thrown at Mayweather). It's their way of psyching themselves up and gearing up mentally for the challenge. You're not going to win by being a nice guy. Of course, he probably does the posturing more than most, but he backs it up in the ring, so there's nothing wrong with it.

It's his fighting style and you should accept it. He isn't going for KO's or anything. Pacman had no solution to Mayweathers fighting style. which is why he lost.

He has enough money to save all Africa for the next forever but can't read

Can't read
Arrogant

Said he was better than Ali who said Tyson was better than himself.

He fights weaker people that nearly is in the same class as him but make it seem like it was dope

People started to hate him after he beat his wife. He stayed super cocky, didn't fight manny, stayed undefeated, stayed the highest paid boxer.

It was the same with Mike Tyson. He was undefeated, super cocky, beat his wife, and blew through money publicly just to hurt. Everyone wanted him to lose to Lennox Lewis just like how everyone wanted Floyd to lose.

But the thing is better defense in sports is key. There's an old saying "Defense wins championships". Mike Tyson lost because he was all offense, Floyd won because he has superb defense.

You must have lost your mind if you think Ali and Tyson were not as cocky as Floyd. Ali did far worse to his opponents than Floyd has done. Many champions are cocky... it is expected.

People who dont know a thing about boxing and only listen to the biased media are the ones who don't like Floyd.

>Im Black
>> Still don't like him

People don't like him because he's cocky & treats people badly. Also not many like his fighting style of, well basically running. He has bold claims as to being the greatest boxer to ever live, yet he runs around to tire the opposition, instead of fighting head on like the stereotypical alpha.

Ali is a dancer like Floyd, cocky like Floyd, treater his opponents worse than Floyd does, claimed to be the greatest like Floyd, and wins via tactics such as rope a dope. Yet Ali is probably the most loved boxer in history.

Double standards.

I don't have to do anything. He was even boo'ed by some of his fans yesterday. He was scared of Pac even his own father was saying so which why why he kept running Lol. Guy makes boxing boring
