    if Mayweather went to 160 and fought Martinez he would still be a favorite bro.

    and like I said he already went from 130 to 154, thats 5 weight classes. u saying hes not great because he doesnt want to go to his 6 weight class means crap and nobody is buying into that.

    Fighting Corrales was a risk, fighting Castillo is his first fight at 135 was a risk. fighting a prime Canelo was risk wether u say so or not, everybody wanted that fight and im srue u were saying that Mayweather would never take that fight. Fighting a power puncher and lineal champ in Mosley was risk and a he took the few bombs and came back strong in that fight.

    if somehow u saying with 45 wins he took NO RISK is a plain hater commnet.

    not gonna happen
    Floyd hasn't (and isn't) going to fight a full-blown at 154, so you can forget 155

    Nobody was scared of Margarito, he was a nobody!! He a trinket belt, wasnt not lineal champ/ u do realize that when Baldmoir beat Judah he was champ right?? Guess what Mayweather did. still took the Judah fight because everybody said thats a way tougher fight then Baldmoir so u should take it, and he did.

    trust me when Mayweather retires it will be a sad day when he leaves. any boxing fan knows this. can anybody ever do 2 mil buys?? probably not, thats fans and haters.

    haters will be made when he leaves and always talk about him 10 years down the line. there will be nobody esle to hate (Now there gonna just follow Broner and hate him for the rest of his career. sad day for boxing when he leaves. u know his kind of talent doesnt come around often. anybody u see boxing now that can be as great??

    And that would be a total farce.

    Did you know that Martinez and Dibella were offering to take "only" 20% of the total purse for that fight? Dude fought Chavez Jr for like $1 million and he expects to get tens of millions for fighting Floyd? He priced himself way out right off the bat.

    He fought both DLH and Cotto at 154.

    To me Mayweather clearly used PEDS between the Ricky Hatton fight in December 2007 and his comeback fight against JMM in September 2009.

    The noticable difference in his body shape and muscle definition was very apparant, he went from being a small Light Welter to being a big Welterweight.

    I think he saw the writing on the wall when Margarito beat down Cotto in July 2008 and knew he was too small to compete with somone like that and took time off to take PEDS and make his body stronger.

    Don't ask too much from the coward. He fought his last fight at a catchweight. Be happy that he's willing to risk his 0 fighting Amir Khan next.

    Yes, he probably did

    Additionally, he has used xylocaine (form of PED that gives an unfair advantage) at least a few times in the past to help with his hand problems.

    Oscar fought Hopkins at a catchweight of 156 pounds.

    I'm sure if Floyd did the same to any MW titlist that he would be condemned for such an action.

    He wasn't a big WW then and he isn't one now. He walks around at WW and has to eat to weigh in at 151 for a fight at 154. Most of these guys walk around 20+ lbs heavier than their weight limit and have to cut like crazy.

    His voluntary drug testing makes him less likely than anyone who doesn't regularly participate in similar voluntary testing.

    However, almost all elite level athletes are on PED's...

    PAC and Floyd is a money fight pure and simple. Oh I forgot Floyd the fighter has a health issue when it comes to PAC :lol:. Against Khan he's willing to put his life on the line, just not against PAC :lol:.

    GGG is a knockout artist, Bernard is not, yet bernard still knocked oscar down should tell you why floyd shouldn't go up to 160 against a harder hitter like GGG. And oscar is way bigger than floyd.:deal
