    The size difference between MAB and Floyd compared to DLH and Floyd is not a good comparison. Because Floyd is considerably bigger than Barrera and Oscar is marginally bigger than Floyd.

    I find it funny how the *****s are clinging to a video of Mosley as undeniable proof that Mosley ducked Floyd... BUT THEN THEY IGNORE THIS VIDEO...

    Wouldn't bet against floyd. He knows how to adapt to win. Apart from a lucky punch Shane was never close. oDLH had much more of a chance.

    Pac refused to random blood testing dummy, how many times does this need to be stated? Had he tested back in 2009 we would had the fight but he didn't.

    PBF 5'8 72 inch reach
    DLH 5'10 73 inch reach

    I didn't mind Mayweather before he fought Oscar. Back then he wasn't as boring to watch. He didn't have to have every rule, testing, etc. in his favor. He didn't go around telling everybody how great he was. At that point he hadn't beaten anybody really of tremendous note. His biggest tests were Corrales and Castillo. Then he fought a shot Oscar and turned into Money May. And from that point on he schemed his entire career. Ducked Williams, ducked Martinez, ducked Pac, dragged up Hatton, dragged up Marquez, took illegal IV's. And said he was so great and the best ever when he never fought a great fighter in their prime his entire career.

    Mayweather would have been fine if he just stayed PBF and then after the fight ****ed off and went away. It's only when he went to Money May that he transformed into the most pretentious jackass you could ever imagine.

    Yea, Marco Antonio Barrera started at 118 and was already undersized at 130, a division Floyd was big for.

    I don't believe May was injured - he was using his damaged rotator cuff, far, far more than Pac did as a side point. May-JLC was a robbery, certainly far, far worse of a decision than a three way 114-113 Ward-Kov card.

    All about context. Floyd set a precedent specially for PAC and made him a target. PAC conceded to a lot of demands including post fight blood test and unlimited urine test which would have been a lot more sufficient than usada fail.

    It's floyd who's been found with all the IV so how ironic

    It shows the weakness of Mayweather, the way he targeted Pacquiao. He unashamedly singled out a former Flyweight champ. That's right, a Flyweight World Champ.

    This is the type of hate filled and agenda filled post that destroys your credibility. Beaten no one of note and now Oscar was shot, he was past his prime but wasn't shot.

    Ducked Williams despite not ever being offered a contract to fight him and he wads not active at that time.

    Ducked Martinez when Martinez was fighting at 160.

    Ducked Pac when even Pac's own trainer stated they didn't want the fight because they didn't want to do testing and it was their fault as Roach stated in this interview 2:29 but then again this is only Freddy Roach and you know more than he does

    Hatton called out PBF and stated he would fight him at 147 after turning him down years ago at 140. Hatton never once made an excuse about the weight not only that Hatton outweighed PBF on fight night and outweighed him on fight night when he fought at 140 and PBF fought at 147 but don't let facts get in the way of a hater's agenda.

    JMM called PBF out and wanted to fight PBF after Pac declined to fight him again also PBF was coming off a long layoff even still he shut out the guy who Pac went life and death with for 4 fights and got put into a coma against.

    The last time I checked PBF was cleared by the USADA and the NSAC so your accusations have no merrit

    Lastly when Floyd was just simply PBF he was putting on some of the best boxing clinics in the sport and got little credit and no one took notice. It was only after he fought media darling Gatti and played the bad boy role did he start to gain attention PBF realized this and played it to a tee so he reinvented himself and has owned the sport ever since. He's the richest boxer in history and the highest paid athlete in the world for years and was the best boxer of his era. He made the right decision to turn into Money Mayweather.

    PBF was injured he even complained to his trainer during the fight. Pac never complained once about being injured to Roach it was an excuse and he threw his right all night long. Even though PBF was injured he still won. A healthy PBF beat JLC with ease.

    PBF used an IV that was given to him by the agency to give a urine sample nothing more he has been cleared so I have no idea why you even bring that up? Pac didn't want to test he didn't want random blood testing with no cut off period. The purse split was agreed to and PBF was ready to sign it was Pac who pulled out to fight Clottey they didn't want the fight, hell Arum never wanted the fight because he already knew PBF was the truth and would have tooled his cash cow. Roach admitted to not being ready for PBF and needing more time to come up with a gameplan he knew how difficult PBF would be for Pac.

    It showed that people in boxing talk and PBF wasn't the only boxer to suspect Pac of being on PEDS Paulie, Juan Diaz and others did as well. Not to mention the way he was climbing through weights and not losing speed power or stamina was very suspect, that doubled when he refused to test. The irony of it is it took for him to get put into a coma before he woke up and wanted testing. I don't blame him for wanting to test the guy and if Pac had agreed to testing back then we would have gotten to see PBF take Pac apart.

    Of course, a prime Mosley would be a threat to anyone. Mosley was kind of hyped late in his career because he KTFO the unloaded gloves MargaCHEATo. Mayweather and Pacquiao beat past prime Shane. I don't know if a prime Mosley actually beats Floyd but it would not be an easy fight for Floyd.
