    I saw that article a couple days ago. When the author totally botched his description of why the P4P phrase came into being, he lost his credibility.

    like me? stop putting words in my mouth and making assumptions. He's bigger than Hatton, but he's a small welterweight.

    And yeah, he does successfully move up in weight but somehow the people he's fighting keep staying the same size.

    the double standard is in favour of Mayweather, not Pacquiao.

    no need to explain, just compare their records. Mayweather is not on that level.

    In the unlikely case that Floyd beats Pac, then you can bet your ass that people will point out the size difference. Of course they will. Thats why we say p4p. Because size does matter.

    What???

    How many times have you seen Floyd Mayweather lose again???

    But that's not the problem...The problem is Roy Jones, Bernard Hopkins, and James Toney rolled all into one fighter....that's the problem. Very hard to beat on any level and Manny Pac is a great fighter but no...he'll make it interesting...he's going to get flustered...he's going to fight wild...he'll go down in 9.

    Marquez is smaller than Floyd. No ones even denied that.



    The size difference between Marquez-Floyd is smaller than the size difference between Floyd-Mosley/Cotto.

    Yet you want Floyd to fight Mosley/Cotto after 18 months out of the sport. :lol:
