    Marquez is a great fighter but if he is p4p #1 why does no one want to see Mayweather-Marquez II because it's a mismatch when they fight in the same division. And if Mayweather isn't p4p #1 why is there nobody in ANY division not named Glovokin,Martinez,Ward,Chavez jr. ect... that is considered a legit fight.

    No one disputes Floyd Mayweather jr's incredible God Given natural boxing talents.
    He is one of the most gifted boxers ever. BUT That alone does not make him a
    #1 P4P ATG.
    Look at the supposed wonderful wins someone claimed Flayd had had in an earlier post....

    Yes Floyd did beat Miguel Cotto but not till long after Antonio Margarito beat him so badly that he had to take a knee & QUIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Margarito LEGITIMATELY took Cotto'd heart in that fight he was never the same fighter again

    Yes Floyd did beat Shane Mosely, but it was a lethargic Mosely who gassed after 3 rounds. It wasn't the raging non stop punching beast with boundless energy who had fought Margarito was it??? Mosely had to be clean to fight Floyd, was he clean when he fought Margarito???????? Knowing Mosely's past use of PED's that looks VERY suspicious.
    Due to the damage done to Cotto's face by Margarito the haters have claimed Tony had loaded gloves. The damage done to Margarito's eye and face by Paquaio was even worse but did Tony & his supporters make the same unfounded claim ??? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Add to all this the fact Floyd refused $8 mil to fight Margarito. Why??? he claims he only fights for$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Nooooooo Floyd knew that to get in the ring with Margarito at that time was a very big risk to him losing his beloved 0
    If & when Floyd does get beaten I predict he'll do another Nasty Nas Hamed & self implode

    He did win a shamefull SD, and got his ass handed to him the early rounds.

    Barely scraping together a win against a way past it Oscar De La Hoya who was more focused on fighting his homo***ual urges than actually fighting in the ring, is not impressive.

    you do understand your making excuses right??

    Cotto was 4 years of the Bricks at a comfortable weight, Mayweather fought a way better Cotto then Pacquiao did.

    Shane Mosley was reconzied lineal champ and had KO the so called invincible Margarito the year before. U saying he was gassed and all this, maybe so but the fact of the matter is Mayweather adjusts better then anybody in the sport. Got hit a Bomb and didnt drop and actually pressured the rest of the fight. #BeastMode

    and enough of this Margarito crap. u do realize that mayweather took the Baldmoir fight for the same amount of money and for the lineal title right?? Not no weak ass WBO title from a no name

    According to floyd, during an interview with brian kenny a few years ago he was offered $8m to fight margarito, 12m to fight baldomir...?? baldomir was also the welterweight champion, marga had nothing??

    I think everyone can see that the de la hoya in there with pacman isn't the same one that floyd fought lol.. if anyone wants to know the effects of extreme weight draining + a rehydration clause watch that fight. Floyd fought him under his terms, ring size, gloves, weight etc.. and still seriously life and death is 8-4 in rounds?? huh.. i think most agree. as kellerman said the judge who scored it for oscar should never judge a fight again.

    All I'm reading is a bunch of quacking and yapping. What fighter, fighting today is better and deserves the p4p title more than Floyd? All that he didn't fight so and so or he's feather fisted, or dude was past his prime or the rest of that garbage. Fold that **** up and sit on it cause it's irrelevant. This is about skills, ring IQ and win/loss. Who's better?

    I do not hate Floyd I do not hate any fighter. Name me one legitimate champion in his prime. Floyd has faced in the last 5 years ?? He waited till Margarito ruined Cotto before he fought him. He NEVER wanted any part of Paquaio. He will not fight anyone onl;y at home in Vegas where he is almost certain to win

    Do you rate Kellermans opinion that highly?? A man that has never ever boxed himself. I think personally Kellerman is over rated
