    Thought it was an interesting discussion. Kenny went all out on him. PBF did go on to beat Baldomir and Hatton who Kenny said he should have fought.

    PBF vs Judah turned out to be a good fight where Floyd showed a dimension he hadn't used in a long time.

    The only time Floyd spews B.S. is when he opens his lips!

    He likes that "you're just a commentator" line of attack, doesn't he?

    Funny at the end when he accidentally says that Zab will "do it again", meaning come back from a loss and win. Oops. His mouth just moves a bit faster than his brain.

    And if he fought Margarito he would be called a paper champion too, Baldomir was the man to fight they just went on with the Judah fight because there were no other options at the time even though they DID try to get Margarito in the ring instead but Margarito declined because he was already scheduled to fight Maneul Gomez.

    Kenny called him out on the Gatti win wen Floyd himself said he was a paper champ and c class fighter yet he considered himself the champion of the division. I guess Floyd got his payback when he knocked out the champion, Hatton.

    Watching this video makes me realize that people thought Baldomir was the man to beat and it looked like he was ducking him. But then when he shut him out Baldomir was a disgrace of a fighter.

    Kenney was right about the Gatti fight, Gatti was just a paper champion who didn't beat a champion for the belt. Even though history will remember Mayweather as a champion in the division the hardcore fans know the title Gatti had wasn't earned beating a champion. Mayweather still tried to get Hatton in the ring and that was turned down so he had no other choice by going for Judah in a fight many people wanted even more than a fight with Hatton, then Judah loses and the rest is history.

    I would say Mayweather is more unlucky when he stepped in those divisions rather than cherry picking. Who else could anyone mention at 140?, Harris?, they even tried to get Harris which is why he wat put on the undercard of Mayweather/Gatti but Harris lost, who ele is there?. He had to move to 147 to secure a megafight and even that one screwed up when Baldomir beat Judah. Who else at 147?. Margarito can't even be considered as he was obviously a hypejob who didn't have a single major name in his record so he was better off beating Baldomir(the true #1) and securing at a fight with Oscar at 154.

    There's more into it and can't be classified as cherry picking immediately when people don't know the situations back then.

    He was also rumored to be fighting Margarito back it believe it or not, Mayweather did try to ditch the Judah fight and get Margarito but Margarito declined as he was already scheduled to fight Gomez in a set PPV event. Even if he beat him he wouldn't have gotten any credit, as a matter of fact he gets more credit beating Baldomir, at least he got the #1 position from that fight whilst Margarito offered nothing.

    I think at 140 Floyd was avoided like the plague. he only had like 4 fights there if im not mistaken.

    Three fights and had to make his self the #1 contender for Gatti's title to secure it or that wasn't going to happen too. Harris was the only one willing to make it happen and he failed to beat Maussa.

    Uhh, if I'm not mistaken, the two guys Kenny was on PBF about duckin' got their asses handed to them by Money May himself shortly thereafter. And for the record that **** about the Hatton camp saying that lil Ricky wasn't ready for Mayweather is 100% true despite Kenny's "ignorance" of it. If only ESB went back that far you'd be able to see me massacring the limey *******s in the British forum about it.

    Not for nothing, but at that time you'd make more money fightin' Judah than Baldo or Hatton. Advantage Mayweather.
