We have four people they don’t really know about boxing😂😂😂 he changed his name twice for a reason, and not to mention his style of fighting😂😂😂 not to mention, mostly speaking about different eras😂😂😂 should I keep it going? Or you starting to understand?
But the fact Floyd changed his style into a completely different fighter is very impressive. Completely different mechanics, movement, punch placements and a whole different defense. Guy had two careers with two different fighters in him. PrettyBoy > MoneyMay.
Yes very impressive. I heard that he switched styles because of his hand injuries and naturally getting slower as you age. However even as money may he was still faster than most.
@at3852 Yes he changed due to hand injuries but mostly for longevity in the sport. He started making too much money as " MoneyMay". Couldn't afford to lose or his health. He knew he developed impeccable defense so he went with that, basically a high level fast "defensive counter puncher" and the competition couldnt handle it.
Just like he shutout all other big name fighters so you stating the obvious that we all saw. But not one person ever rocked mayweather TWICE in a round, and had him hanging on tight to Shane arm, or else would have got stopped….and that was an older shop worn Mosley at that, who had everyone sweating for that moment 😅 I wish they fought in their light weight days, for I would actually been more impressed with Mayweather gettin a W then if he even could have even pulled it off at the time…
Yeah… not to be negative. But that 2nd round was a Mayweather hater’s dream. I’m a Mayweather fan but Shane couldn’t capitalize. Like you said after that 2nd round, it was a wrap.
@@JohnKing-jz9zbHe never let Burton turn into the drunken master. Burton got some shit in but Mayweather aced that test. Big ups to the warrior Emanuel Augustus Burton.
If there’s enough money on the line, Money Mayweather will stink up the fight and win a decision somehow someway. He wouldn’t exchange with Bud obviously, but he’ll potshot, play defense, and do enough to get a decision.
@@jonmolina948getting a decision isn’t an easy task though. It’s just as hard as knocking some one out. Out of all the fight you’ve been in, did they last 30-36 minutes?
This was the exact reason many of Mayweather fans excused his blatant ducking throughout his career- they would just say, oh Mayweather would beat them anyway so no big deal
This convo is hilarious!!😂 You have to be able to hit Floyd clean. The guy will make you miss while standing in front of you. That lead right hand, left check hook, and gazelle punch was on another level.
Crawford way different bro. None of Floyd opponents through tricky punches, was that strong, long ass arms, great iq.. y’all be ball riding too hard that would be a tough ass fight for Floyd
Mayweathers ability to adjust and his defensive skills are flawless. People tend to be prisoners of the moment and forget the greatness of Floyd when another fighter seems to be flourishing.
Idc who it is or what they do nobody in history could beat Floyd only ones who stood a chance were both sugar rays & tommy hearns just because of his size he’s TBE for a reason
@@certifiedgyalis225 Mayweather would lose to prime Sugar Ray Leonard. Watch the fight of Sugar Ray versus Mayweather Senior(yeah i know mayweather senior was not even close to the fighter his son was, im referring to the fighting style they both used in their careers). SRL beats the brakes off Money May
Generally yeah. He did lose to Castillo the first time and got a gift though. Not taking anything away from him cos he's easily the greatest fighter of the last 20 years, since RJJ at the very least.
@@fablo7830 he did lose to castillo the 1st fight. Also cherry picked his toughest opponents and waited for them to get old. That said, Mayweather did win. You have to put an asterisk next to some of them though. Had Floyd fought some in their primes, he would have lost and he knew it. Dont give that Canelo bs either, dude was 21. He wasnt a seasoned boxer, just young
@@breakingviralnews4838 Crawford isn’t faster, isn’t better defensively and doesn’t have the same level of boxing IQ as Floyd. The only edge he has is power, but so did most of the guys Floyd fought.
Crawford is a great fighter, great talent, etc. Can't deny that. However, I think people are too quick to act like Mayweather couldn't hang with Crawford simply because Crawford has the recency bias. Mayweather and Crawford are so natural in the ring that it is hard NOT to compare them. I just think people forget. Money May fought at a slower pace, but didn't waste. Pretty Boy fought the way Crawford fights now. It would be a competitive fight where I'd lean towards Floyd to control, but Crawford would keep it close.
@@InfamousAWJ What? Bud would have a harder time with money cause he would have more difficulty hitting him. If pretty boy moves forward, then he fights in Bud's world. Money was the smarter fighter. Older and wiser. Money's not gonna try to destroy anyone, but he'll beat you on points alone, and he will.
@@InfamousAWJ just you saying 80/20 when dudes like burton, cotto and chop chop had Floyd leaking and Castillo and Maidana Floyd needed part 2 fights with shows you know absolutely nothing about boxing.. Floyd had about 5 split decisions victories and Crawford got 0000000000000000 because nobody even came close to beating him Bozo
@JohnKing-jz9zb Crawford never fought anyone as good as Mayweather's best opponents: de la Hoya, cotto, Pacquiao, canelo, etc. Crawfords best win is against spence, who is a one-dimensional come forward brawler who does the same couple attacks on repeat.
Floyd doesn't just make in-fight adjustments, he makes in-round adjustments. Huge Shane fan, but he forgot how Floyd adjusted in the last 30 seconds of round 2 in their fight. Floyd re-established himself and it was a WRAP for the rest of the fight.
@@jordancooke5980man that’s the thing, Bud makes those same calculated audibles except with power in both hands. Amazing fantasy matchup. But I even got Money May vs Bud being 50-50 even with Floyd’s brittle hands. Money’s accuracy and ability is a lot to overcome even for Bud.
The moment Floyd makes an adjustment to Crawford it’s over,let this sink in for everyone.Floyd didn’t just make an in fight adjustment to beat people who made a career adjustment and still didn’t lose to anyone.That man is the greatest ever
@@iamjwns6277huh? 🤔 that is literally what Floyd did to get the W.. he got off the ropes, took it to the center and decided to box from there.. won on points that way
@@cheddae6393 lol bro he has only fought 2 top guys at welterweight but it’s impressive one could of definitely kept fighting but his dad was mad at his training lol Crawford not knocking out no damn Shane Mosley Oscar De La Hoya Cotta or Canelo. Shit Maidana either
@@cheddae6393 I’ve watched Crawford since he beat Prescott at 135 had him beating Spence easily before they fought but I have never seen Crawford and thought this guy is unbelievable an all time great I do think he is great tho but Floyd is Special no weaknesses really. Crawford unfortunately was with Top Rank and fought leftovers at 140 and 147. I like his Shawn and Spence wins but in the history those guys are 1 division champions.
Money is both smart, and defensive enough to beat Bud. Pretty Boy would fight Bud the way that Bud would want him to fight the kind of Fight that Bud would want him to fight, so I think it's a reverse situation. Pretty Boy would definitely bring that fight to Bud, but that's what Bud thrives on.
Nope Floyd beats him no matter what,it’s a casual take to say Floyd was just all offense as pretty boy when he’s always defense first.Floyd is just better than Crawford plain and simple.Take into account their whole career and there’s nothing Bud does better than Floyd
I dont think he'd beat Money or Pretty Boy. BUT if I had to say, it's the other way around. I think Pretty Boy would be better for Crawford rather than Money Mayweather frfr. Money Mayweather wins by Unanimous decision, no split!
I like Crawford but he would not stand a chance against Floyd, it doesn’t matter which Floyd you pick for him to fight wether it is Money May or Pretty boy. Floyd is just on a completely different level when it comes to boxing.
I could see that, both 35 at welterweight is very competitive fight. Pretty boy Floyd was a different beast all together. His speed alone was legendary
Such a brilliant analysis. This is exactly what was confusing me in my head because I could see both results but just didn’t know why. Mosley just reminded me that we have two floods and they are subtly yet very different types.
Floyds IQ when he figures you out is on another level. Crawford would give him an issue regardless of whether or not it is Money or Pretty Boy. If you really watched Floyd then you know he switched between the two in probably his last 20 fights.
Tiny T rex arms Gamboa was having success against Bud. Any version of Floyd would use the whole ring and pot shot Bud to a decision. And like usual, everybody will have a nice big juicy excuse the very next day
@jetla22 People haven't forgotten at all,that's the point. He was very special so just imagine the outcome of that fight if he had Floyd's reach, power, stamina and chin. Floyd is Gamboa plus
@sf2explus184 Definitely, Floyd has seen every style and fought heavier guys his whole career. Crawford has fought a bunch of come forward fighters, he's never seen anything nowhere near Floyd's skill level
Floyd is the greatest , he has all the attributes that make up a great boxer/fighter/entertainer/businessman. Very savy. For some one with no school. He is a genius
@@trollgoodman7808 interesting calling other people fanboys and then fanboying about Duran...Duran was a beast though. I'm only a true fan of God our creator and savior
@@trollgoodman7808 same, duno how your logic and critical thinking is denying Floyd's intelligence and fight IQ, nvm have a good day, your name is troll. I should know better
I undastand him while heartedly‼️but do I agree wit him No‼️Floyd Mayweather to Technical now. He’ll pick Terrance Crawford apart‼️in soon as Crawford gets frustrated he’s Gone💯
Funniest shit is a Shane Mosley commentary on a fight... My bro literally says every possible outcome until the listener is confused. It's like hearing all possibilities of the metaverse with this brotha 😂
Be a great matchup for sure. Hoping somebody can give Crawford a run for his money because right now he is head and shoulders above the competition. Bud Crawford is amazing and a true boxing legend that could be great in any era. But you look at guys like Mayweather Pacman Mosley De La Hoya, and many others, today's generation doesn't have near the talent.
Naw, but I can tell you're retarded as f***. You act like you're some sort of psychologist. He's always talked and acted this way and he didn't take a lot of shots or heads hots for that matter. More cases than not he was the one giving them. Stop trying to put dumb shit on people.
Agreed. I said that even before he beat Spence. People don’t understand how good Crawford are at catching his opponent when he’s vulnerable and in compromising moments. He’ll catch you when you’re running. Which Floyd did a lot at the end of his career.
For those casuals who says Floyd runs. He stays in the pocket with head movement and on the ropes with the shoulder roll. He threw them hands against canelo in the pocket and against cotto blow for blow. Grandmaster definitely is the word. Shane got one good punch in on Floyd and then Floyd made a display of him
You wrong Shane got two good shots. And then made a display of him. Shane identified as a deer as he couldn't pull the trigger. Of course the best ever adjusted though.
When an actual pro boxer legend is breaking it down and giving good reasons for his breakdown but some randoms on RU-vid are arguing the opposite like they know better 😂😂🤣 This man has forgotten more about boxing than any of you will ever know in your lives! Facts
I don't think Crawford beats neither version of Floyd because "Pretty Boy" Floyd was 130/135lbs. Offensive minded, before the hand problems. Not to mention Crawford at 130/135 wasn't as good 140/147 Crawford. Then at 147 "Money" Mayweather was too seasoned and sharp for anybody. He offset everything you tried to do. It's actually disrespectful to Floyd to all of sudden compare Crawford to him. And if mfers really believe it, why weren't they saying that shit prior to the Spence fight??? Prisoners of the moment is all going on. Crawford ain't better than PRIME Pacquiao at 130-147. He won't necessarily beat prime Shane Mosely, prime Miguel Cotto. Prime Julio Caesar Chavez destroys him, Sugar Ray Leonard destroys him. Thomas Hearns destroys him. Duran destroys him. Does he beat Aaron Pryor at 140 or Macho Comacho at 135??? I don't think so. Floyd is GREATER/BETTER than ALL of these guys so Crawford can't compete
@@shayfontezforee7956I think it's more of how Chavez came forward and threw. Perhaps Crawford couldn't handle as he got hurt by gamboa. And dropped by someone else but they called it a slip. Not sure if it was brooks.
I can say it must be annoying and frustrating to fight Mayweather. Not because he gone beat you up but because it seems like you gone get him and that subtle defense you keep missing...and you like how the hell those punches didnt land
Totally agree. I have been saying this. He's too strong too. Quick move to shifty. I don't think people really understand how fast and how strong Terrence Crawford is he is a super athlete with A1 boxing skills
fast OH please his fast vs slow fighters, Floyd was fast against fighters like dela hoya,pacquoi zab judah all of them are faster or on the same hand speed of crawford. floyds speed is on another level crawford can't mess with. fighters like the ones to drop crawford would not even touch foyd never mind knoking him down
Crawford would've been a hell of a fight for the "147 version of Floyd". That's not suggesting Crawford absolutely beats Floyd but I think we have to start including him in the "Discussion". Floyd similarly was pitted against Ray Leonard when he got to 147 (and the arguments haven't stopped since). Same applies here.
I think it's the other way round. Money Mayweathers steals a controversial/split decision. I don't think Pretty Boy Floyd's aggression would do much for him, not with the power he has. Gamboa, Kavaliauskas, Spence couldn't get to Crawford so I can't see what any form of Mayweather could do offensively to stop him.
I agree with two of the fighters, but Gamboa hurt Crawford. He couldn’t put him down because he is short with T-Rex arms. That is my favorite Crawford fight. I think they called it “Fight of the Year.”
Floyd Mayweather is the cheatcode. He is the cheatcode of boxing. Instead of saying "he is the Michael Jordan of boxing, people should be saying "they are the Mayweather of whatever they are doing."
Sorry folks, but Bud wins that by late stoppage! Everyone who thinks Floyd can't be touched better talk to Spence. For some reason to this day that sparring session between him and Floyd hasn't been (and never will) be released for others to watch. If Spence who is slow, predictable, and repetitive can put hands on Floyd, so can Crawford. The only thing Floyd has slightly over on Bud is speed, their ring IQ is even and Bud has more power
@@dargeoge95Diego Corrales 😂😂 I van name about 10 others who were prime champions he took belts from or gave their first loss..stop the hate n revisionist history. U sounding like a casual foreal. Mayweather had two separate hall of fame careers as pretty boy Floyd and money Mayweather, before n after he hurt both hands n moved up 4-5wl weight divisions..he was only in about 2 close fights..he literally has the same ko percentage ad manny Pacquiao lmao n smh 😂. Better Google him before u make a fool of yourself. Terence Crawford resume is garbage in comparison. N I'm not a fan of either guy just keeping it a buck as a 48yr old boxing fan
@@relldog8 the same Diego Corrales that had a hard time making weight? Like I said never fought a prime fighter at their best weight. Don’t be mad at me that’s a fact been a boxing fan for 20+ years I’m the furthest thing from a casual.
Man PBF Would beat blood out of Crawford. Crawford is slow and gets hit allot. Mayweather is blistering, and doesnt get touched. It would be like Crawford fighting an athletically gifted version of himself@@Dell_Macho
Too bad we'll never know!! Lol The reality is, Floyd never fought another A level fighter in their prime at their best during his run(He never even cleaned out the 130Ib or 140Ib division when he had the chance to do so) and it'll always be debatable when discussing him against other all time greats!!
Bro wtf you talking about lmao your acting like Floyd ducked he fought many of world champions while in their primes and he wasn’t in his. Pretty boy Floyd would whoop any fighters ass today
An broken errol spence is his best win 3 car accidents later and eye surgery floyd got at like 10 wins on his resume better than current spence y’all are crazy
Floyd is so great that he’s only known for one extremely clean shot, ironically it came from Shane Mosley. But it’s the only time this man got cleanly rattled from a power shot in 50 professional bouts. TBE
naw floyds wins either way. crawford is not a seek and destroy fighter either shane. Crawford will box you and floyd is the best defense fighter ever and his offense and pin point punching is unmatched. crawford special skill is when you open up and start throwing in combinations he looks to throw in between your shots and looks to land big but Floyd don't open up enough because he plays defense also floyd has great legs it would be a boxing match and floyd would win
round 1 would be the moment crawford realises his the inferior boxer as soon as floyd lands the jab at will. turning crawford into a come forward fighter like oscar dela hoya had to come forward. then you play into floyds hand and get countered for even blinking. Floyd makes his opponents hesitant. floyd has cat like reflexes
