I think Floyd did a great job in his own career of being well matched to protect in his undefeated career towards the end he started taking more risks i.e Canelo and Pacquiao. But I feel now just because he fought Pacquiao he feels everyone should fight the best v best. I think Mayweather is behind the Broner v Porter matching while it is a great match up for the fans but this is the first time Broner is entering the ring as a pre fight underdog so on paper he technically has been overmatched. While Mayweather himself or even someone like Amir Khan have never taken a fight that they weren't favourite to win. If Broner looses where does he go from here with two defeats.

Another point, Errol spence already has Mayweather suggesting Keith Thurman in Sept, I don't believe he is ready while similar ages but he is a professional novice while Keith has been on the seen longer. Errol has potential but a Thurman fight in September is to soon as far as we know Keith may well be the 3rd best Welter behind may pac.

So potentially both Mayweathers fighters Broner and Spence could be taking losses this year. Does FM really care about the fighters careers and longevity or just a quick cash out for Mayweather promotions.

Double standards, 'my health is important and then makes guys in his gym spar a 30 minute round.

Like I said great for the fans but will damage the development of upcoming fighters, while Broner v Porter is a fair match up but Errol Spence has no business with Thurman just yet instead he needs to fight a Collazo, Guerrero, Rios, Garcia type fight first.

Many top fighters spar for that long non-stop while training. How do you know Floyd doesn't? He's known to fight fresh fighters back-to-back nonstop in sparring.

If Mayweather really wanted to test himself like he wants to test his fighter, he could've fought about 20 champions in 5 weight classes and really gone for it. Instead, he'll be remembered as a guy who protected his 0, never moved up where guys were bigger than himself, never fought the elite fighters and stars like Corrales, Cotto, Pacquiao, etc. Now he wants Broner to fight somebody who isn't Gavin Rees, the dirty *******.

:rofl:rofl BE delivers again.

Seriously the stupidity of some on this forum knows no bounds. How does one become:

- 12x world champion in 5 different weight classes
- 5x lineal champion (SFW, LW, WWx2, JMW)
- Ranked in the top 2 pound for pound as early as 1998 and still be ranked #1 17 years later

By not fighting tough opposition?

As far as the comparison with Spence fighting Thurman 3 years into his career at 24: Floyd fought lineal champion Genero, who was unbeaten at SFW less than 2 years into his career at 20.
