What fighter besides Floyd has to go up in weight to avoid the DUCK label?

They want Rigo to move up.
They want Broner to move up from 135.
People say Ward needs to move up to LHW.

 

Not by more than a small percentage of people who just don't like them, certainly not to the same degree for which Mayweather has received scrutiny.

The thing I think people forget is that Mayweather is already above his most effective weight, and is maxed out. He is a former SUPER FEATHERWEIGHT, he has already moved up a ton of weight classes. For his fights at 154, he wasn't even shedding a pound, and came in at around 150. He was outweighed by like 16 pounds in his fight with Oscar, and outweighed a ton by Ortiz too, who is over 160 after rehydrating. He can't even make 154, if he went up to middleweight, he'd be weighing 150, fighting guys who are 170-175+ on fight night, it's preposterous, and unrealistic.

 

Its the worst when people say floyd should move up to fight sergio. In no way is it even reasonable.

 

it would help if floyd faced the fighters the fans wanted to see instead of facing the ones he chose to face without the fans approval

 

The longer he ducks Haye, the worse it looks for his legacy.

 

I can see the irony in the thread, not entirely sure you meant it but yes you do have a point.

Ducking - defining ducking in Floyd Mayweather terms is difficult, because he is so good is the long an short of that one.

One question will remain over Mayweather for the rest of his living life, did he fight the best available guys at their peak or close to their peak, the answer will always be no! that said, he is not going to lose any sleep over it, so neither should anybody else.

My philosophy on Mayweather is just enjoy it while he's in the ring fighting, because we dont get to see it that often :yep

 

All dark skinned gentlemen, hmmmm

lol

 

Haters gonna hate. The guy is too good and if he fights an elite his size it is unacceptable. And if he pot shots the bigger guys then they will ***** as well and call him boring.

 

They haven't spent their entire careers not making the fights fans want to see. Absolutely zero "retirement" and "vacation" time from the three of them. No waiting out a division, no bringing up guys from divisions down. Not a fair comparison.

 

Chris John. He has feasted on bums at 126. If he doesn't want to unify his division, he should test himself against fighters in the heavier divisions.

 

How has Floyd spent his entire career ducking people? I'd say except for this guerrero fight he has fought the best avaialable opponent.

 

Did people not want to see Oscar, Hatton, and Shane??? They were all highly demanded. Also if he doesn't fight the guys people want to see then why does pull big numbers?

You should be banned for your ignorance.
