    “Floyd tried to fight the guy everyone thought was the best guy available and we couldn’t get that fight done, so we went to the next guy on the list. As I’ve said many times, when Floyd decided to come back to boxing, he did it to be in major events. He’s going to face all of the top welterweights and one by one, knock them all off.”

    Seeing is believing, he's certainly capable.

    That is a good strategy.

    He has to agree to fight them first though.

    I'd almost, ALMOST given up on the guy.
    Wether it's public pressure, peer presure, cash, legacy, I don't give a ****, finally I get to see Mayweather against a top guy at weight for the first time in **** knows how long.

    Dear Floyd,

    I certainly believe you.

    The reason you failed to knock out JMM is because he did not engage, because if he had engaged and not do a Cotto or MAB act, you certaily would have knocked him And another thing, you were carrying JMM, to make the fight exciting.

    I am so sure that you would knock out Mosley, unless Mosley rides his bicycle. Forget about fighting Margarito because he is a proven cheat and Paul William does not have the name and not a PPV material.

    In order to be true to your promise of knocking out all your opponents one by one, your next fight should be against Calderon because you surely would knock him out if you could connect with your punch. But wait, Calderon would not be a good choice because he rides his bicycle and you know how hard it is to knock out fighters who use bicycles, it is better if you fight Marquez, not Juan Manuel but Rafael. That would be a good fight because you would have the mexican connection at the same time you could market it as revenge fight for beating JMM.

    Your most loyal fan,

    Nallege

    P.S : I did not realize that you promised to knock out top welterweight fighters. No problem because Calderon and Marquez are welterweights.

    He should have been doing so 4-5 years ago when he first arrived at 147. I would like to know though, does his plan include Paul Williams?

    Kinda makes one really wonder why he "retired" in the first place.

    Anyway, it's going to be good if Floyd does indeed get in the ring against Shane.

    He's willing to fight the best welter out there, so I don't see any reason why he would duck any of the other top guys at 147. Personally, I'm only interested in him fighting either P-Willy or Pac after Mosley.
