    Floyd wouldn't even come close to doing what Pac and Mosley did to Margarito.

    Simple matter of styles.

    Why not?

    He could even fight Cotto and I would give credit to him..


    Cotto, Margarito are career welterweights, who fought who's who in those division. They might not have won all of those fights, but they never lost to nobodies.

    It is one of the things I criticized about Ortiz. He actually had 1 solid fight as welter, against another fighter who is basically unproven at welterweight, or basically unproven at any weight.

    If anybody think this fight should not happen because the results are foregone conclusion, then Mayweather should never fight anybody. They should just start adding up wins in his resume.

    I know, but the damage is done. He got his damn orbital bone broke early in the fight and kept getting hit rounds over and got hit over 400 times.
    He's damaged goods

    I felt this fight would have been boring years ago, and I still feel that way.

    No. Would look similar to the Baldomir fight.

    because I'm just being fair. If I give Pacquiao **** for fighting Floyd's leftovers, then I'd do the same if it was reversed. I wouldn't justify this fight at all if it was signed.

    I could see my friends asking me "Why is Floyd fighting Margarito? Didn't Pacquiao already beat his ass?"
    And I really wouldn't know what to say back :-(

    Go look at Margarito's record moron.

    Ortiz has had several fights at Welterweight, and you arent unproven at a weight when you beat a champion stupid. :patsch

    Only a fool would bash Floyd for facing Manny instead of facing someone like Khan, Margarito, or Cotto.

    Because you have obsession with "leftovers"!!!

    If you are so strict with such criteria, then how would you defend when someone said, "Why was he fighting Ortiz when Maidana already fought him?

    Or why did he fight Oscar when Bernard Hopkins already KOed him?"

    Or is the thought that only Pac should be fighting "leftovers". Mayweather is fighting Pac's sparring partners - Ortiz and Amir Khan (soon)

    Sparring partner is less than leftover in my humble opinion.

    FOOD FOR THE THOUGHT :


    If he fights fighters that people are saying he is ducking, eventually people will run out of names or start naming fighters that are really nowhere as credible!!!

    Example - Nobody can say Pac is ducking Cotto or Margarito - because he fought them.

    So people are now saying he is ducking Martinez or Tim Bradley (before he started ducking Amir Khan)

    You're opinion dont mean **** because you're stupid. You do know that top level boxers spar with eachother dont you? Morales sparred with Floyd Mayweather? Oscar sparred with Mosley. Margarito sparred with Paul Williams. Pac and Khan are in the same camp, of course they are gonna spar to improve one another.


    Seriously what is wrong with you?

    I thought Margo just stated his eye situation is such he can't fight again.
