    If your answer is NO, then please explain to me why Mayweather needs to fight either of them to as the haters would say "cement his legacy" .....People say Mayweather didnt do anything @ Welterweight but he beat the last 2 UNDISPUTED WW champs with ease. He held a WW belt b4 Cotto, Margarito, & Williams did. And many people fail to realize that Mayweather started @ 130lbs and people still want him to prove he can beat ALL the top 10 welterweights to prove his greatness???

    How about Margo & Williams with their big frames move up to MW and Challenge Pavlik? or maybe SMW to challenge Kessler?...None of these so called BEST WW's are gonna move up and capture titles in 5 weight classes.:-(

    I think alot of people that dislike Mayweather hate that he is WAYYYY better than everyone and he knows he is better so they want to see that RICH SMILE get slapped off his face and its pretty sad because as opposed to praising his career acheivments & Talents they attemt to downplay it by saying he ducked 3 guys that arent even locks to get into the HALL OF FAME, 3 guys that all have losses on their records, 3 guys who have yet to reach the TOP 5 Pound for Pound list............

    Make no mistake about it, I would love for Mayweather to fight all 3 fighters because he would beat all of them IMO.....I dont think any fighter who lacks in defense will beat Mayweather, it will take a mirror image of himself in a sense to be defeated.....For those who are screaming Williams is TALL & LONG:-( NOPE!!! Carlos Quintana outboxed him, what do you think Mayweather would do? Im glad Margo & Cotto fought because that fight showed me how Mayweather would beat Cotto & Margarito......Cotto outboxed Margo the first half of the fight before being worn down & getting tired....Mayweather would do the same but wouldnt get hit with Margos ugly, looping wide shots and EVERYONE knows he wont get tired.....speaking of Margo's punches, if he could land those shots on Cotto, what makes you think Mayweather wouldnt land those same punches at a much higher percentage....i mean damn Zab Judah throws one punch at a time and busted Cotto all up.......Mayweather would OWN Cotto:good

    If Margarito, Williams & Cotto retired today they wouldnt even sniff the ballets to the Hall Of Fame!

    No, but at least two of those three will almost certainly be hall of famers, so...

    To anyone says that Mayweather has to fight anyone, like he owes anyone or thing something, are kidding themselves.

    The only people who really should be hounding Mayweather for not fighting these type of guys are the ones who rate Mayweather unrealistically high (as in, top 10-20 p4p)

    mayweather has nothing to prove to get in the hall you are correct, but he is many fights away from proving he is anywhere in the top all time great status like he claims.(and his nutt hugging fans) He can start by beating the top guys in his weight class

    Wrong, Mayweather won his title in 2006 and Margarito won his in 2002.

    I said AT LEAST 2

    That's how you do it, you beat guys that are in their prime, not guys that have already got their "legacy" in hand and are headed out the door.

    Me, I don't give a fig about legacy. I like great fights.

    Nopes they are Not.

    PBF beat 2 undisputed welters? Who Baldomir and Zab? Are you saying that PBF can retire and proclaim himself the best at 147 after fighting Baldomir and Judah because he started at 130?

    :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

    PBF is a 5 divisional Champ . . . but he doesn't rule 147.
