Santino Mireles Canelo beat Mosley a year before facing a 37 year old Mayweather. How come he didn’t lose a fight before facing Floyd if he was ”just a kid”? 😂😂
Notice how many times he said in the video how he was wrong or how he did not expect what actually happened in the fight. So yeah, I think he'll be a good post fight analyst, like what he's doing here, but not so much as a pre-fight analyst making predictions on how a fight would play out.
The reason Maidana did so much better against Floyd than all those other great fighters like Mosley and Pac is because he doesn't care about looking good. He just came forward and through as many punches as he possibly could.
Floyd took a ton of abuse from old Larry for years IMO so I was not surprised when he snapped on the old guy. I do miss Larry because he always said the most unfiltered and cringe worthy shit at times. Nice job as always Rummy

What facts???? The fact that he knows Merchant would have gotten his ass whipped??? He failed to mention that fact. Facts are, Marquez fought Pacquiao at a catch weight. Weighing in at 142. How is this guy going to say that he never fought over 135. M.j o facts there.
it bothers the hell out of me how everyone complains about how Mayweather beat Ortiz. calling to unsportsmanlike. But say nothing about the straight up illegal headbutt from a frustrated outclassed cheat.
Cortez called those two to continue fighting too. Not to mention Ortiz had already apologized and kissed Floyd on the cheek like a weirdo. He was digging his head into Floyd's chin every round. And he finally got frustrated and jumped off his feet like E Honda from Street fighter. Floyd was blazing the kid and was on his way to a late Rd TKO. I wish it would've gone that way, but Floyd more than likely assessed the situation and decided to get him out of there before Ortiz did something even crazier.
I'd love to see one of these for Cotto. I feel like all of his losses were against guys that had some kind of edge on him. Catch weights. Loaded gloves... Despite all that he's always been a true champion. I feel like Floyd was the only one that beat him on an even playing field, at his ideal weight.
I think Canelo was his last truly great performance. Ever since that fight he FINALLY started to look his age. He looked very offstride in the Maidana fight and even in the rematch he still didn't look quiiiiiiiiite right, despite winning it much more easily than the first. He cruised most of the way against a bewildered Pacman who simply didn't have a gameplan, then had a SUPER easy night against a lower level Berto. The Canelo fight was the last time he actually looked GREAT imo. That looked like his body's last hurrah. His balance and timing never really looked as good afterwards.
Cruised against Pacquiao? Lol. Yeah he cruised alright. Landed the least amount of punches in his career against a 5'5 pacquiao who was coming foward all night.
He was too big for manny. Thats not a knock on floyd. Manny beat up lots of bigger guys. But if you give floyd a considerable size advantage, hes gonna win 10 out of 10 times. Hes hard enough if you are the same size. Its not that manny didnt have a game plan, he couldnt do anything. If floyd fought him again in a rematch, floyd would have knocked him out.
@@mickbowe4252 Mosley beat Margarito, Cotto got his revenge on Margarito, Ortiz beat Berto, Canelo beat Trout, Maidana beat Broner, all of these were big wins at the time

I think he fought Maidana the way he did due to constant criticism about his boxing style. He choose to be on the ropes. He could have boxed him, but with the new contract and trying to get pay per view. He tried to make it seem competitive. He was always in control
Rummy Is a boxing analyst. You're the best man. I mean it. I've been a fan of the sweet science since the 80's. It was once 3rd for me behind football and basketball. I can't put anything above it now, and you're the best at breaking down what I love. Please never stop doing this man. Respect and thank you.
Larry Merchant and Floyd can still have that fight. #50 Mayweather vs Merchant HBO PPV!!! Lol!! It's hard to compete with Floyd's last 10 fights because they were all coming off big wins except for Berto, and were all solid named opponents and/or champions. The man had good timing with opponent selections.
GGG GRANDADDY GRENADINE GLOVESKIN Yeah, but Merchant really might be the one to solve the Mayweather Shoulder roll. He has watched his career for all 20 years. Larry has the system down pack and is ready to fight. All we have to do is build that goddamn time machine so Larry can go back 30 years to age 50 and fight Floyd.
If you weren't watching how the negotiations went through back in 09, you'd know that Manny's team agreed to all his terms from purse split to blood testing. Only thing that was being waited was Floyd's agreement and signature. And I agree that Bob Arum sure did make things more complicated than it should, especially with the purse.
Manny did agree w/ Floyd's terms. But, the fight stalled, as they couldn't agree on the financials. The whole drug testing thing was cooked by Floyd Sr., which eventurally retracted.
Floyd and Maidana was the best fight for Floyd in over a decade IMO. Still feel a draw would have been fair and I knew in the second match Floyd would shut him down but did not foresee him shitting him down into retirement 😟 Love him or hate him Floyd was always fascinating to observe with his ring skills.
Floyd didn't beat Marquez with size though Rummy speed skills and acuracy.No disrespect to you I do think you are the most knowledgeable and unbiased boxing guy on TH-cam handsdown
Putting Floyd's greatness in perspective, almost all fighters do well against some opponents and struggle with others. Even Ali had big trouble with certain opponents (Norton, for one). In my opinion, Floyd completely outclassed all of his opponents. Fighters like Maidana and Castillo may have looked like that they gave him trouble but when I watched the fights a second time and more closely, I could see that their punches were missing Floyd and he schooled them both in the rematches. Having said this, Floyd fought all of the top competition in his era but never had to face somebody of Leonard's, Duran's or Hearns' caliber and I don't think he would have beaten all or maybe even any of them. In my opinion, Floyd was the most technically perfect fighter ever, with the most skill.
O H Floyd rated #23 ATG list. Too many great Champs in front of him. 40’ 50’ and 60’s you needed 50 fights to get a main event at the Garden, even harder for a Black defensive fighter. Floyd’s hands were shot after 30 fights. I doubt Floyd ever gets a main event at the Garden. Semi-mains outta town...Scrapbook thinks #23 is too generous..
@AEROTRAP but he made that same demand to Mosley since he was suspected of PED's also and Shane accepted the demands. So why would Shane accept it and Paq not. I mean unless you have something to hide.
@Tyler Brown you dont know that. He had it flushed out of his system with that 16 oz IV treatment in his living room prior to the Pacquiao fight. As far as the alledged A samples USADA let slide.....
I am a Pacquiao fan, but it has to be said that several of his noted victories came over guys Mayweather had already defeated and quite frankly he was sort of a one trick pony. There were no significant adjustments during fights or during his career. He just was what he was. If a guy gave him trouble like Marquez for instance, he would always give him trouble. And if a guy couldn't give him trouble like Margarito, he would never give him trouble. He was EXCELLENT at his one trick though and fun to watch. It's fascinating to me.
Finally! A boxing channel, I'm a causal fan, but I do know the science in boxing, thanks to my older brother watching and teaching me about fights during the 90s. Most channels provides opinions without facts, and you provide yours with facts. Nice work.
Floyd fought twice at 154 prior to fighting Canelo.. he fought DLH and Cotto I would love an explanation as to how maidana deserved a draw or a win .. its laughable Floyd won the first bout 9-3 or 8-4 either way it was a deserved win. People misunderstand a competitive fight.
Rummy's Corner your channel seems to be one of the only ones that i can really say is unbiased!... and that's saying a lot in this day and age. I love your work, very informative and very entertaining. Keep up the good work!
I, for one, loved watching Floyd fight. Everyone loves the big puncher, but the essence of the art is to hit and not get hit. Floyd was certainly not the most entertaining fighter, but he was highly skilled at his job. I just wish he would have taken every comer at his peak. It’s easy for a fan to criticize for not fighting a guy when we want to see it. I think a lot went in to those decisions, but I’m not sure the fear of losing was much of a factor.
@@akvalues Yeah, you tell 'em! We all know that Pac vs Mayweather was better than Hagler vs Hearns, better than the Thrilla in Manilla, better than Homes vs Norton! Or perhaps Pac vs Mayweather REALLY wasn't that good and not worth spending your hard earned money on.
I still believe Floyd gets the stoppage if he fought Manny earlier in his carrier. Manny actually got smarter after the Marquez knockout. I feel like Floyd lost a lot as evident in the Maidana fight
Rose Gold people forget that floyd lost to castillo and maidana. That he was caught hydrating with an illegal iv the night before the pacquiao fight. That floyd senior himself called bayless to protect his son against manny on fight night. That he lost a case and was prompted to pay pacquiao 40kish for accusing him of using peds. That he fought a berto and an MMA fighter for his 49th and 50th win. That he only fights in Vegas with the judges of his choice. And that he still wants to remain significant when he is obviously not anymore. Lol!
Rummy.. I love your presentation on Floyd last ten fights.... He will be back... He is just waiting for the cash-cow fighter he can get paid on with another easy victory... Floyd will never get beat from today's fighters because he is from the old-school cloth that plays chess and not checkers... He will sign a three fight deal making 45 million per fight. What I think he is doing, is setting back allowing the boxing community to miss him and willing to do whatever to get him back in the ring.
Great video. You come across honest and unbiased, which is refreshing and rare these days. Only, minor, critique is that you didn't mention Maidana KOing Broner, which is what earned him the Mayweather fight. Other than that, nice job.
Larry Merchant was a fookin legend there! On another note, if Floyd is anything like he was in any of these fights he'll be KOing McGregor if they fight!
PACMan fans should be happy and gracious that Floyd and Mannu didn’t fight in 2010 remember how Floyd did Chico Gatti and Hatton??? That’s probably how that fight would have looked before 2015
Russ yeah, absolutely. Connor came from a great win and an MMA champion in ufc before the floyd fight yeah. Same with berto who just came from a win with a c class fighter josesito lopez yeah?
Why is the Mosley win impressive? Mosley was almost 40, has already lost to Cotto three years prior, and he hadn't fought in over a year. I mean, he was still a high level boxer but nowhere near his peak self. Same with Pacquiao, who was old, clearly not his best self and had severe shoulder injury prior to the fight which he had to have surgery after. And then there's Berto, Maidana, Ortiz, Guerrero...All high level boxers but clearly not at the required level to be impressive. I do give him credit for Canelo though.
Oak Land I crazy to see anyone who claims to have boxing knowledge say Floyd had this amazing career. He cherry picked all his opponents at the prefect times never fighting dangerous fighters in their primes. Floyd was the best at making money then making great fights. Then he capped his career off with the biggest joke of a fight in boxing history. A fight that should have never even counted as a real professional prize fight.
youre forgetting floyd destroyed boxers put in front of him when he was a small name, his fights were exciting his fight against corrales and gatti showed floyd in his prime, floyd was well out his prime when he fought guys out of their prime and in their prime, not just any fighters he made look amateur, he made legends look amateur to the point they didnt know how to adjust as good as him and were left clueless on how to break the shell, same way he made a high volume puncher like manny lock up and stumped him for an easy win, maidanas style is what gave him the most trouble b4 retiring
@@marcuslarwa9098 He did have an amazing career. It's crazy to say otherwise. How do you know he cherry picked every opponent? Who did you want to see him fight?
The Marquez fight had NOTHING to do with weight as far as the outcome. Getting your ears boxed off is completely different than being pressed and bullied and leaned on and a much bigger guy just walking through shots.
Ortiz was burning himself out early because he let floyds taunting a punch deflection frustrate him and hes a piece of shit for head butting..ppl dont realize a head butt is alot more dangerous than punches..boxers shoulders and necks are conditioned and an 8 pound weapon being bashed into your head could kill you, cause extreme brain damage cause serious cuts and death..boxers know intentional headbutts are not a joke especially with force ortiz threw it..he wanted to seriously hurt floyd and the sport has rules for a reason..these are peoples lives and careers at stake
Mayweather had the talent, skills and gift as a boxer. He gets criticized because he never faced a boxer who met these three conditions at once: A boxer who 1. In his Prime 2. Natural weight 3. The best of the division. Mayweather unlike boxers of the 80's did not have a pool of great boxers in his era. Not his fault. Mayweather did not face great boxers and the reason he gets dissed. I do think that Mayweather would have done good if he fought back in the 80's. Not great, but good. Salvador Sanchez would have been too much at 126. Azhuma Nelson, Julio Cesar Chavez or Hector Camacho at 130 would have been also too much. Roberto Duran would have assassinated Mayweather at 135. Aaron Pryor and Alexis Arguello would have made Mayweather quit at 140. Tommy Hearns, Sugar Ray Leonard and Wilfred Benitez would have been destructive for Mayweather at 147 or 154. Haggler would have killed Mayweather at the weight in at 160. The 80's fights were 15 rounds with 45 seconds rest in between and same day weight in. No way, know-how Mayweather could have been considered great. His resume is substandard in comparison to the aforementioned great ones.
kufujitsu but they actually wanted to fight each other. Different era, different mentality. Floyd and Pacquiao both made well over $100 million each in those 5 years they made us wait. Like Rummy said, it didn’t benefit either of them business wise to fight that early, it only made sense for boxing (which as a fan, it sucks)
By the end of 2012, when the talk of a Pacquiao-Mayweather fight got hot again, Manny lost back to back fights to Bradley and Marquez. There was no reward in Floyd fighting him at that time.
This man is the GOAT. You will never see a 37yr old who is 150lbs, facing a 23yr old who is 165lbs and walk them down without getting touched by a single punch. The thing is, thats all of Floyd's fights pretty much. He has been overachieving for so long, that people took it for granted and acted like it wasnt good enough. Past 34, Floyd should'nt have even been winning those fights, but he was not only winning, but humiliating these guys. His legacy is downright illogical, and abnormal.
Hey Rummy! Just wanted to let you know you have one of my favorite channels on here, I loved your video on Tyson Fury and the heavyweight lineage. Check out my channel I have interviews with Evander Holyfield, Riddick Bowe, Shannon Briggs & many more....now back to your video on Floyd!
Nobody ever gives floyd the respect he deserves I think he is in the best 3 boxers ever I'm a mayweather fan from the UK he schooled camel and looked amazing best boxers in no order floyd sugar ray lenoard and marina Hagler my opinion
This might sound foolish but now that Mayweather vs McGregor is going to happen do you think that's a better carrier end than Berto or do you think it's worst? And do you think McGregor has any chance?
Floyd lost at least 2 fights. vs. Maidana the first one (if your bought judges fail a "split" decision, means you lost Floyd), vs. Castillo (the biggest ripoff of the last 20 years), and the Pacquiao was very close (Floyd basically spent the last 5 rounds running away like a chicken). He is very overestimated. He ALWAYS avoided to fight the best ones at their prime (vs. Pacquiao the most evident, he delayed this 10 years, plust chosen the time when Manny was recovering from a broken arm).
nicolashrv his shoulder wasn’t hurt in the 4th round when he had Floyd on the ropes stop the excuses man he lost y’all just hate Floyd and mad cause y’all all put y’all hope all in that manny would be the one to beat him stop with the lies
The fans won every pacman and Floyd fight that took place did great PPV numbers they sparked many of great debates and got people talking about boxing again.
Definitely fattened his bank account. Legacy? not so much, imo. Guerrero ,Ortiz ,Berto , post-being-catastrophically-ktfo Pacman, Oldsley, etc...Nice vid as always, but on this one I must take on the role of loyal opposition. Oh, and I'll take Merchant by dirty tricks stoppage in the alley behind the bar @ 0130 on a Sunday morning.
He beat everyone who was at the top in his era. Name one guy he genuinely avoided. Pacquiao was arguably past his prime, but Mayweather was still 3 years older than Pac. You wouldn't give Mayweather the benefit of the doubt if he would've lost to Pac.
Floyd = 1 loss to Castillo in their first fight and one draw with Maidona in their first fight. Floyd = 1 knock down to Zab Judah in the second round of their fight. Floyd = overrated stats. Next... Floyd = no first ballet HOFers while in their prime on his resume. Hyped up record and hyped up compubox numbers. Floyd loses to Prime Robinson, Prime Duran, Prime Leonard, Prime Hearns, Prime Pryor, prime Whitaker and possibly to a prime Taylor. Lucky to be in the era he was.
Prime is 25- 35. Simple s saying that he fought 22 world champs. He had a close fight with Castillo it was close . but the best boxer would win in the rematch And Floyd did. He been knockdown official once hell you can say he got knockdown twice. In 50 fights . plus he was 37 (past prime) when he beat maidana.
Ugh...I've seen all of those incredibly idiotic punch-counting videos. Punch-counting is arather misguided approach at judging prize fights. The basic principle is to judge who's being more effective as it pertains to the criteria. Floyd Mayweather Jr., in that regard, clearly and decisively won the fight. This isn't a debatable topic to anyone who has a rudimentary understanding of the sport.
Nonsense fights, when there is no KO or K downs.. are decided by punch stats MW won 7 of the 12 rounds PAC MAN won 5 of the 12 rounds..it was a close fight
Ryan Esau lol yeah, maybe Pacquiao’s mother had the score that close but any unbiased boxing fan or anyone with any knowledge of boxing knows it was more like 9-3 Mayweather. It was not a close fight at all. This is coming from a huge Pacquiao fan who was rooting for him.
I wouldn't call Mayweather TBE but he's gotta be up there with them . I lot of us didn't always appreciate his defensive fighting style but you have to admit he mastered the sweet science which he made it look artistic.
Great video. Only problem is you forgot to mention maidana just came off a big win against broner and that the fans chose maidana over khan. Yes Floyd gave them the option for those two guys lol but the fans still voted. Khan was fighting once a year against B level opponents and maidana came off his biggest win. Other than that great video.
this is what most people that don't like Floyd don't understand that he has character I say that to say this when Mosley hurt him he didn't fold he took it and came back like a champ like mike Tysons mentor said the character is what makes champion.

I think he fought Maidana the way he did due to constant criticism about his boxing style. He choose to be on the ropes. He could have boxed him, but with the new contract and trying to get pay per view.
He tried to make it seem competitive. He was always in control
@lil saff21 uhh, no. Opinion
49-1 Larry Merchant beats Mayweather #EasyWork
lol
Free Merchant!
Duidjkcjs
RRSKI Pogiski If only I was 20 years younger!!!
RRSKI Pogiski Yeah and I got a Bridge in Brooklyn to sell..
excellent break down. you earned a subscriber.
BUT THIS GUY COOL.
I'D WATCH ANOTHER ONE OF HIS VIDEOS
Rummy Is a boxing analyst. You're the best man. I mean it. I've been a fan of the sweet science since the 80's. It was once 3rd for me behind football and basketball. I can't put anything above it now, and you're the best at breaking down what I love. Please never stop doing this man. Respect and thank you.
1 of the greats in the the ring and out in promoting and maximising his name
That dude wouldn’t kick nobody ass if he was 55 years younger 😂😂😂
Larry Merchant and Floyd can still have that fight. #50 Mayweather vs Merchant HBO PPV!!! Lol!!
It's hard to compete with Floyd's last 10 fights because they were all coming off big wins except for Berto, and were all solid named opponents and/or champions. The man had good timing with opponent selections.
GGG GRANDADDY GRENADINE GLOVESKIN Yeah, but Merchant really might be the one to solve the Mayweather Shoulder roll. He has watched his career for all 20 years. Larry has the system down pack and is ready to fight. All we have to do is build that goddamn time machine so Larry can go back 30 years to age 50 and fight Floyd.
LOL, i would pay my ppv money for that
+Willie Maeket lol
Berto was coming off a knockout win
Floyd wanted to fight Mosley back in 99. Same outcome exploits in my estimate.
Floyd called out Prince Naseem Hamed, Kostya Tszyu and Acelino Freitas those would have ben great fights
Casamayor too
also dodged Winky Wright, Vernon Forrest, Sergio and Margarito
I honestly thought this was gonna be a vid of Floyd being bashed but finally some one gives the man his credit
if manny would have taken the olympic testing that fight would have happened 5 years earlier.
If you weren't watching how the negotiations went through back in 09, you'd know that Manny's team agreed to all his terms from purse split to blood testing. Only thing that was being waited was Floyd's agreement and signature. And I agree that Bob Arum sure did make things more complicated than it should, especially with the purse.
Manny did agree w/ Floyd's terms. But, the fight stalled, as they couldn't agree on the financials. The whole drug testing thing was cooked by Floyd Sr., which eventurally retracted.
what? the joke usada?
And he would have gotten his ass BEAT! Floyd was just too much for Pacquiao.
@@mauricehumphrey545 He should've proved it back in 2009.
Floyd and Maidana was the best fight for Floyd in over a decade IMO. Still feel a draw would have been fair and I knew in the second match Floyd would shut him down but did not foresee him shitting him down into retirement 😟
Love him or hate him Floyd was always fascinating to observe with his ring skills.
draw fair? what?
***** Gloves wouldn't have impacted outcome. He didn't land a lot of clean shots to begin with. Just a bunch of wild punches and low blows.
***** He has the power do why not make demands Oscar did the same thing. So get off Floyd's nutz.
naw I think cotto was..floyd even said it cotto was his hardest fight
Kevin Anjuwon Yep and still whopped his ass.
Floyd didn't beat Marquez with size though Rummy speed skills and acuracy.No disrespect to you I do think you are the most knowledgeable and unbiased boxing guy on TH-cam handsdown
Size had a lot to do with it. Marquez was never a true 147 pounder.
Size was the difference. Mayweather had speed, skill and accuracy but he was far too big for him.
Marquez tried but was too small
It was floyds speed that won. That being said marquez was hella slow at 147 at that time. He had good speed at his natural weight.
Rummy, the late great Bert Sugar , Al Bernstein & Mad Max Kellerman are my go to guys when discussing the sweet science
Love him or hate him, Mayweather is the best..Period.
Thank you for no blind bias and not being a fan boy, just the non emotional facts, that's why you get the subscribers.
He fought Oscar at 154 with no weight clauses
I don’t think Canelo was a catch weight either.
@@raw5889 152 catch weight
Blame his management for saying it was oj
Putting Floyd's greatness in perspective, almost all fighters do well against some opponents and struggle with others. Even Ali had big trouble with certain opponents (Norton, for one). In my opinion, Floyd completely outclassed all of his opponents. Fighters like Maidana and Castillo may have looked like that they gave him trouble but when I watched the fights a second time and more closely, I could see that their punches were missing Floyd and he schooled them both in the rematches. Having said this, Floyd fought all of the top competition in his era but never had to face somebody of Leonard's, Duran's or Hearns' caliber and I don't think he would have beaten all or maybe even any of them. In my opinion, Floyd was the most technically perfect fighter ever, with the most skill.
Conor Anthony Mcgregor. Will make it 49-1
SYKE !!! #50-0 #TMT #TBE
Your crystal ball is fucked.
Stupid
Amber Wisdom ydksab
Hahaha
Casual fan...🤣🤣🤣
Canelo’s team offered to fight at 152 catch weight Floyd accepted it. Floyd never asked for the catch weight.
Ed Rock actually Canelos team offered to fight at 150. And Floyd countered with the 152. Because he didn’t want Canelo that drained.
Floyd had some extremely good names on his record, no one can say that he isn’t the GOAT
He isn't the GOAT.
O H Floyd rated #23 ATG list. Too many great Champs in front of him. 40’ 50’ and 60’s you needed 50 fights to get a main event at the Garden, even harder for a Black defensive fighter. Floyd’s hands were shot after 30 fights. I doubt Floyd ever gets a main event at the Garden. Semi-mains outta town...Scrapbook thinks #23 is too generous..
crazy potato 50-0, this guy was beating people out of his prime
MONEY'S UNDEFEATED CAREER IS EASILY THE MOST IMPRESSIVE EVER! HE IS THE KING OF BOXING!!
you don't have to place blame because Freddy roach admitted they turned the first offer down
PhantomZone15 ya cause Floyd made unfair demand... shocker right. If you don’t want the fight just make crazy demandsz
Rob A like Eddie Hearns now lol
@AEROTRAP but he made that same demand to Mosley since he was suspected of PED's also and Shane accepted the demands. So why would Shane accept it and Paq not. I mean unless you have something to hide.
@Tyler Brown you dont know that. He had it flushed out of his system with that 16 oz IV treatment in his living room prior to the Pacquiao fight. As far as the alledged A samples USADA let slide.....
Ur a real boxing fan... You give constructive criticism and u also give him his respect... Rummy u the man
Respect the channel man
I am a Pacquiao fan, but it has to be said that several of his noted victories came over guys Mayweather had already defeated and quite frankly he was sort of a one trick pony. There were no significant adjustments during fights or during his career. He just was what he was. If a guy gave him trouble like Marquez for instance, he would always give him trouble. And if a guy couldn't give him trouble like Margarito, he would never give him trouble. He was EXCELLENT at his one trick though and fun to watch. It's fascinating to me.
Finally! A boxing channel, I'm a causal fan, but I do know the science in boxing, thanks to my older brother watching and teaching me about fights during the 90s. Most channels provides opinions without facts, and you provide yours with facts. Nice work.
I don't know if anyone else noticed, but all but 2 of the fights shown were refereed by Kenny Bayless and Tony Weeks!!!
Ronnie Foster they are the top refs in the game in the top. These are the biggest fights in the world bro. Not espn Friday night fights. Lol.
Floyd fought twice at 154 prior to fighting Canelo.. he fought DLH and Cotto
I would love an explanation as to how maidana deserved a draw or a win .. its laughable Floyd won the first bout 9-3 or 8-4 either way it was a deserved win. People misunderstand a competitive fight.
Fought canelo at 152 tho.
dadondutta I think maidana beat Floyd
Oh you mean like the Castillo fights?
@@raw5889 impossible
dadondutta...i suppose he whooped Castillo as well?.
the speed of mayweather was incredible. he made canelo look like he had lead in his boots who is pretty quick in his own right
Idk. Larry might have a punchers chance, but I see Floyd winning a majority decision or late stoppage.
Pacman didn't want To tested for PEDS that's why the right took 5 years
John Roach He agreed to testing 6 months later. Arum didn’t like be dictated to by Floyd..Like Rummy said...there’s plenty of blame to go around...
@@saintcruzin but wanted a 50/50 split. You & I know that don't fly. It's how bob arum does tactics to get OUT of negotiations.
Rummy's Corner your channel seems to be one of the only ones that i can really say is unbiased!... and that's saying a lot in this day and age. I love your work, very informative and very entertaining. Keep up the good work!
I've enjoyed your videos. Great work. Please keep 'em coming!
Floyd was right of course. Merchant knows jack about boxing. Merchant just liked the brawlers. Floyd was a artisan.
Great video man especially the video editing went great with the points you were making at the time
Rummy, you are an absolute genius! Possibly the best Boxing analyst around. Knowledgeable and make perfect sense.
This video was fantastic and very fair.
I, for one, loved watching Floyd fight. Everyone loves the big puncher, but the essence of the art is to hit and not get hit.
Floyd was certainly not the most entertaining fighter, but he was highly skilled at his job. I just wish he would have taken every comer at his peak. It’s easy for a fan to criticize for not fighting a guy when we want to see it. I think a lot went in to those decisions, but I’m not sure the fear of losing was much of a factor.
thanks for making these cool videos .
Joe Cortez was like oh, shit when Floyd dropped him! He didn't even see the first punch he was talking to the ringside judge.
PacMan vs May. Worst fight I ever paid for.
Maybe cause Floyd won
Nathan Dubose I never paid for a mayweather fight. I’m glad I never.
Because your fighter didn't win!!....lol!!!
@@elshanks1578 because your just a casual!
@@akvalues Yeah, you tell 'em! We all know that Pac vs Mayweather was better than Hagler vs Hearns, better than the Thrilla in Manilla, better than Homes vs Norton!
Or perhaps Pac vs Mayweather REALLY wasn't that good and not worth spending your hard earned money on.
I still believe Floyd gets the stoppage if he fought Manny earlier in his carrier. Manny actually got smarter after the Marquez knockout. I feel like Floyd lost a lot as evident in the Maidana fight
Fantastic video. Do more. I subscribed!
Kenny bayless like " hold on hold on, you hurt him a lil bit."🤣
People forget pac fought cotto and Oscar at catch weights with a hydration limit.
Rose Gold people forget that floyd lost to castillo and maidana. That he was caught hydrating with an illegal iv the night before the pacquiao fight. That floyd senior himself called bayless to protect his son against manny on fight night. That he lost a case and was prompted to pay pacquiao 40kish for accusing him of using peds. That he fought a berto and an MMA fighter for his 49th and 50th win. That he only fights in Vegas with the judges of his choice. And that he still wants to remain significant when he is obviously not anymore. Lol!
Rummy.. I love your presentation on Floyd last ten fights.... He will be back... He is just waiting for the cash-cow fighter he can get paid on with another easy victory...
Floyd will never get beat from today's fighters because he is from the old-school cloth that plays chess and not checkers... He will sign a three fight deal making 45 million per fight.
What I think he is doing, is setting back allowing the boxing community to miss him and willing to do whatever to get him back in the ring.
Ray Liotta all day...
Great video. You come across honest and unbiased, which is refreshing and rare these days. Only, minor, critique is that you didn't mention Maidana KOing Broner, which is what earned him the Mayweather fight. Other than that, nice job.
Broner was dropped twice he was never stopped
Floyd vs Pac was a dud. But in all fairness, Pac was injured coming into the fight.
Deep respect for Madiana`s perfomance against Floyd. Excellent video as usual
Larry Merchant was a fookin legend there! On another note, if Floyd is anything like he was in any of these fights he'll be KOing McGregor if they fight!
You were right!
ste bostock boy you called it huh?....lmaooooo
Floyd was nothing like he was in any of these fights but he still won
PACMan fans should be happy and gracious that Floyd and Mannu didn’t fight in 2010 remember how Floyd did Chico Gatti and Hatton??? That’s probably how that fight would have looked before 2015
Wow ! Someone with a skull full of good brain 👍👍👍
People always forget that Floyd has a extremely long reach, that along with tremendous footwork and fast reflexes make him close to unbeatable.
You also didn't mention PAC fought his guys after their biggest losses and Floyd fought his fighters after their biggest victories.
Russ yeah, absolutely. Connor came from a great win and an MMA champion in ufc before the floyd fight yeah. Same with berto who just came from a win with a c class fighter josesito lopez yeah?
People forget how everyone including Mayweather dodged Paul " The Punisher" Williams at WW and he had to move up in weight to get fights...
Why is the Mosley win impressive? Mosley was almost 40, has already lost to Cotto three years prior, and he hadn't fought in over a year. I mean, he was still a high level boxer but nowhere near his peak self. Same with Pacquiao, who was old, clearly not his best self and had severe shoulder injury prior to the fight which he had to have surgery after. And then there's Berto, Maidana, Ortiz, Guerrero...All high level boxers but clearly not at the required level to be impressive. I do give him credit for Canelo though.
Oak Land I crazy to see anyone who claims to have boxing knowledge say Floyd had this amazing career. He cherry picked all his opponents at the prefect times never fighting dangerous fighters in their primes. Floyd was the best at making money then making great fights. Then he capped his career off with the biggest joke of a fight in boxing history. A fight that should have never even counted as a real professional prize fight.
youre forgetting floyd destroyed boxers put in front of him when he was a small name, his fights were exciting his fight against corrales and gatti showed floyd in his prime, floyd was well out his prime when he fought guys out of their prime and in their prime, not just any fighters he made look amateur, he made legends look amateur to the point they didnt know how to adjust as good as him and were left clueless on how to break the shell, same way he made a high volume puncher like manny lock up and stumped him for an easy win, maidanas style is what gave him the most trouble b4 retiring
@@marcuslarwa9098 He did have an amazing career. It's crazy to say otherwise. How do you know he cherry picked every opponent? Who did you want to see him fight?
lmao I love when people say Pacquiao was old. Floyd ages too!! He's older than Pacquiao! Time affects everyone.
A young canelo? Maidana gave him a great fight probably more competitive than the cotto fight.
LMAO @ 7:41 I keep forgetting how sleep Pac was!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 SUBSCRIBED
Pac beat Floyd..
The Ortiz fight was because he beat Andre Berto and took his belt.
and the maidana fight was because he beat & humiliated adrien broner
i always wondered if broner beat maidana if floyd would have fought him...that would have been a huge build up..
The Marquez fight had NOTHING to do with weight as far as the outcome. Getting your ears boxed off is completely different than being pressed and bullied and leaned on and a much bigger guy just walking through shots.
I agree for those first few rounds I actually thought Ortiz had a good shot
Ortiz was burning himself out early because he let floyds taunting a punch deflection frustrate him and hes a piece of shit for head butting..ppl dont realize a head butt is alot more dangerous than punches..boxers shoulders and necks are conditioned and an 8 pound weapon being bashed into your head could kill you, cause extreme brain damage cause serious cuts and death..boxers know intentional headbutts are not a joke especially with force ortiz threw it..he wanted to seriously hurt floyd and the sport has rules for a reason..these are peoples lives and careers at stake
U must got some good chronic in that cigar in ur profile pic thinking that #TMT
Facts, what Mayweather did in the ring doesn’t get the respect it deserves. Give him his flowers while he is alive.. I see you money may!!!!
Mayweather had the talent, skills and gift as a boxer. He gets criticized because he never faced a boxer who met these three conditions at once: A boxer who 1. In his Prime 2. Natural weight 3. The best of the division. Mayweather unlike boxers of the 80's did not have a pool of great boxers in his era. Not his fault. Mayweather did not face great boxers and the reason he gets dissed.
I do think that Mayweather would have done good if he fought back in the 80's. Not great, but good. Salvador Sanchez would have been too much at 126. Azhuma Nelson, Julio Cesar Chavez or Hector Camacho at 130 would have been also too much. Roberto Duran would have assassinated Mayweather at 135. Aaron Pryor and Alexis Arguello would have made Mayweather quit at 140. Tommy Hearns, Sugar Ray Leonard and Wilfred Benitez would have been destructive for Mayweather at 147 or 154. Haggler would have killed Mayweather at the weight in at 160.
The 80's fights were 15 rounds with 45 seconds rest in between and same day weight in. No way, know-how Mayweather could have been considered great. His resume is substandard in comparison to the aforementioned great ones.
Leonard & Hearns didn't make us wait 6 years, or whatever it was.
kufujitsu but they actually wanted to fight each other. Different era, different mentality. Floyd and Pacquiao both made well over $100 million each in those 5 years they made us wait. Like Rummy said, it didn’t benefit either of them business wise to fight that early, it only made sense for boxing (which as a fan, it sucks)
By the end of 2012, when the talk of a Pacquiao-Mayweather fight got hot again, Manny lost back to back fights to Bradley and Marquez. There was no reward in Floyd fighting him at that time.
Leonard is a title thief, fucking peace of shit.
@@lewiscollins1045 Leonard was a beast, he'd slap Mayweather about
This man is the GOAT. You will never see a 37yr old who is 150lbs, facing a 23yr old who is 165lbs and walk them down without getting touched by a single punch. The thing is, thats all of Floyd's fights pretty much. He has been overachieving for so long, that people took it for granted and acted like it wasnt good enough. Past 34, Floyd should'nt have even been winning those fights, but he was not only winning, but humiliating these guys. His legacy is downright illogical, and abnormal.
Hey Rummy! Just wanted to let you know you have one of my favorite channels on here, I loved your video on Tyson Fury and the heavyweight lineage. Check out my channel I have interviews with Evander Holyfield, Riddick Bowe, Shannon Briggs & many more....now back to your video on Floyd!
Nobody ever gives floyd the respect he deserves I think he is in the best 3 boxers ever I'm a mayweather fan from the UK he schooled camel and looked amazing best boxers in no order floyd sugar ray lenoard and marina Hagler my opinion
Pac won that fight clearly ...
This might sound foolish but now that Mayweather vs McGregor is going to happen do you think that's a better carrier end than Berto or do you think it's worst? And do you think McGregor has any chance?
Floyd lost at least 2 fights. vs. Maidana the first one (if your bought judges fail a "split" decision, means you lost Floyd), vs. Castillo (the biggest ripoff of the last 20 years), and the Pacquiao was very close (Floyd basically spent the last 5 rounds running away like a chicken).
He is very overestimated. He ALWAYS avoided to fight the best ones at their prime (vs. Pacquiao the most evident, he delayed this 10 years, plust chosen the time when Manny was recovering from a broken arm).
nicolashrv his shoulder wasn’t hurt in the 4th round when he had Floyd on the ropes stop the excuses man he lost y’all just hate Floyd and mad cause y’all all put y’all hope all in that manny would be the one to beat him stop with the lies
The fans won every pacman and Floyd fight that took place did great PPV numbers they sparked many of great debates and got people talking about boxing again.
Definitely fattened his bank account. Legacy? not so much, imo. Guerrero ,Ortiz ,Berto , post-being-catastrophically-ktfo Pacman, Oldsley, etc...Nice vid as always, but on this one I must take on the role of loyal opposition.
Oh, and I'll take Merchant by dirty tricks stoppage in the alley behind the bar @ 0130 on a Sunday morning.
He beat everyone who was at the top in his era. Name one guy he genuinely avoided. Pacquiao was arguably past his prime, but Mayweather was still 3 years older than Pac. You wouldn't give Mayweather the benefit of the doubt if he would've lost to Pac.
Great video Rummy
Froid is the greatest ducker/cherry picker of all time.
This channel is FIRE
Floyd = 1 loss to Castillo in their first fight and one draw with Maidona in their first fight. Floyd = 1 knock down to Zab Judah in the second round of their fight. Floyd = overrated stats. Next... Floyd = no first ballet HOFers while in their prime on his resume. Hyped up record and hyped up compubox numbers. Floyd loses to Prime Robinson, Prime Duran, Prime Leonard, Prime Hearns, Prime Pryor, prime Whitaker and possibly to a prime Taylor. Lucky to be in the era he was.
Moonlight Tiger this comment might just give me autism.
He loses to prime DLH too. Mosley was 39yo when they fought, I thnk younger Mosley gives Floyd more trouble too.
MOSLEY , AND DLH WOULDNT FIGHT EM. THEY BOTH USED THE, HE DOESNT SALE EXCSE
Moonlight Tiger floyd lost too castio and maidana thats a fact
Prime is 25- 35. Simple s saying that he fought 22 world champs. He had a close fight with Castillo it was close . but the best boxer would win in the rematch
And Floyd did. He been knockdown official once hell you can say he got knockdown twice. In 50 fights . plus he was 37 (past prime) when he beat maidana.
Rummy you are the best
FLOYD BEAT MANNY DECISIVELY. YEAH THATS SOUNDS COOL BUT IN REAL LIFE.......
In real life...Floyd decisively beat Manny and the fight wasn't remotely competitive.
PeoplesChampion9050 u might want to watch it later where they count all punches in slow motion. Tape don’t lie.
Ugh...I've seen all of those incredibly idiotic punch-counting videos. Punch-counting is arather misguided approach at judging prize fights. The basic principle is to judge who's being more effective as it pertains to the criteria. Floyd Mayweather Jr., in that regard, clearly and decisively won the fight. This isn't a debatable topic to anyone who has a rudimentary understanding of the sport.
Nonsense fights, when there is no KO or K downs.. are decided by punch stats MW won 7 of the 12 rounds PAC MAN won 5 of the 12 rounds..it was a close fight
Ryan Esau lol yeah, maybe Pacquiao’s mother had the score that close but any unbiased boxing fan or anyone with any knowledge of boxing knows it was more like 9-3 Mayweather. It was not a close fight at all.
This is coming from a huge Pacquiao fan who was rooting for him.
I wouldn't call Mayweather TBE but he's gotta be up there with them . I lot of us didn't always appreciate his defensive fighting style but you have to admit he mastered the sweet science which he made it look artistic.
Great video. Only problem is you forgot to mention maidana just came off a big win against broner and that the fans chose maidana over khan. Yes Floyd gave them the option for those two guys lol but the fans still voted. Khan was fighting once a year against B level opponents and maidana came off his biggest win.
Other than that great video.
this is what most people that don't like Floyd don't understand that he has character I say that to say this when Mosley hurt him he didn't fold he took it and came back like a champ like mike Tysons mentor said the character is what makes champion.
The best boxing channel and I just subscribed to it and it is great that he didn't attack him
everone got out class 49 of them. enjoy the rewind you will never see again..
Arguably the Greatest fighter . For me he’s one of the most consistent clinical boxers
