NEW AGE POSTING
Floyd Mayweather voted fighter of the decade by BWAA​

Mayweather, who outpointed Alvarez in a 2013 junior middleweight world title unification fight that was, at the time, the highest-grossing pay-per-view event in history, went 10-0 from 2010 to 2019 in a series of mega fights. Mayweather retired in 2015, returning for a 2017 knockout of UFC star Conor McCregor when he crossed over to boxing, before retiring again -- though he has hinted about making another comeback this year. But even though five-division champion Mayweather (50-0, 27 KOs) essentially fought for only half the decade, his performances were so dominant and such massive events that he claimed the award. He was the only two-time BWAA fighter of the year in the decade, winning it in 2013 and 2015.

Besides Alvarez, Mayweather also defeated Manny Pacquiao in their long-awaited welterweight unification fight to determine king of their era in 2015 in what remains the biggest grossing fight in history. Other major wins for Mayweather in the decade came against Shane Mosley, Miguel Cotto and Marcos Maidana (twice). The other fighter of the decade nominees were Alvarez, Pacquiao, former super middleweight and lightweight world champion Andre Ward and former unified heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko.

It's unusual when we don't need to use the intro section to hash out the latest No. 1 debate. It obviously takes the Blue Devils out of the debate for No. 1 -- but it also starts a new discussion. How far do they drop?

Top-5
No.1: Baylor
No.2: Gonzaga
No.3: San Diego State
No.4: Kansas

As you see Menty, he doesn't really even care about stuff that actually happens in sports at all. Just copypasta, copypasta, copypasta.

It's bizarre actually.

Now they're saying his wife was in the helicopter too.
