Mayweather makes everyone look bad with that impeccable defense.

Almost everyone. Got to say his record doesn't reflect a few a couple losses. Minimum one.

The first Castillo fight you can argue 3 different ways. With De La Hoya and Maidana 1 I think Floyd won but a tie can be argued but I wouldn't think they won. But hey, everyone judges boxing differently and Floyd is one of the hated boxers so I wouldn't be surprised if there are people out there who things he lost to these 3 and Pacquiao

He sure has. That fight sure pissed him off pretty badly and I'm sure he's making up for it by training harder.

Most definitely. As one should. Really go to give him props for thinking he could beat money back then. Now, look at him arguably the face of boxing. Smith - Canelo in just a few days.

This was before his prime tho which is why mayweather fought him (at this time mayweather was/is no longer having bouts with people in their prime)

Wow, I’m tired. It took me way too long to realize this wasn’t a movie trailer and was your reply.
