If you have doubts about WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. being in a class of his own, then you are either a fan of a fighter that has already been obliterated by Mayweather or of cause, an ardent fan of the Manny Pacquiao or indeed you have issues that have nothing to do with boxing and you are probably, just a bitter hater of the man. Please, ensure that you read through this article to the end, it may just be your salvation, hate is a disease.

I don't think so, compare each fighter performance against Marquez, Mayweather embarrassed him and I actually had Marquez as winning against Manny in their last fight. And I know different styles make fights but Manny struggles against counter punchers and guess what? Mayweather is the best counter puncher out there. No disrespect to Manny either, I'm a fan but just can't see him beating Mayweather.
You can't be in a class of your own when you spent the second half of your career ducking competitive fights and fluffing your record. He is in a league of his own as being the only person so scared of Pac-Man tarnishing the b.s. he has built himself up with that he would rather beat his baby mama and go to jail.
No, he's very good but not that good. He's very good at selecting fights, what great fighter has he ever beaten in their prime? The best I can think of is Diego Corrales, but Diego was going through tons of personal problems at the time.
I voted yes because Mayweather is my favorite boxer. He is the man, but of course that is just my opinion. He may set up fights but I honestly think everyone does. It's all set up in my eyes.
Ol Floyd is in a class of his own ok lol He was blessed with incredible God given boxing talents but was cursed by receiving the cojones of a gnat. He'll beat on borderline contenders as long as the playing field is tilted well in his favor & makes a habit of beating his babies mama's. Mention the name Paquaio & watch Floyd tremble
