His downfall? His only defeats are to Floyd and Manny! Yeah he may be done, but I don't see how eating and drinking have been his downfall... he's beat everyone else.
Floyd and Manny are pretty good you know.

True, but do you not think he would have had a better chance of beating them, especially Floyd, had he not lived such a wreckless lifestyle. I just think at the top levels in any sport, the little things matter. He started better than Floyd in the earlier rounds, and who knows, he may have continued to be better if he had lived a different lifestyle.

I think Floyd Mayweather was just too good (and one weight class too heavy) for him, personally.
