    Khan, Garcia and Thurman, IMO.

    Or...

    Khan, Sergio and Pac.

    Instead we will get..

    Maidana II
    Canelo II (completely pointless fight)
    Berto (even more pointless)

    I don't understand all these complains, you feel Maidana won ? So you think what he has done is enought to be a new champion ? Sure, mayweather style wasn't impressive, he was slightly better and I am pretty sure maidane hasn't shown skill and power to be a new champ. To be a chemp you have to beat champion, Maidana didn't.

    floyd stood in the pocket from the very beginning. maidana threw a bunch of punches that did little or no damage. for the most part...the only punches that did any damage were illegal ones...or shots that followed the illegal ones.

    mayweather closed out the fight using his legs which told me that was something he could have done from the very beginning. if maidana was doing the damage everyone thought he was...floyd wouldn't have had it in him to move the way he did in the closing rounds.

    people want to see floyd lose so bad that they are letting their homotions cloud their judgment. they're condoning cheating. they are letting their hatred for mayweather consume them.

    Heck no, he should not retire. Things are just getting interesting. Floyd looks vulnerable. Every fight going forward is going to be tough. He's going out on his shield. Only hard work and dedication carries Floyd to 50-0!

    I agree with the OP, Mayweather should fight Pacquiao then retire. he should forget about the Maidana rematch...

    I think Thurman gives Floyd all kinds of problems at this stage of the game...

    That is for damn sure he doesn't deserve 1/3 of that money he gets. Imagine that, a guy with his style and lack of power, spars in most of his fights, gets paid more than Tyson or Oscar did? Well that is just because of the time we're in right now. If either of those cats were still fighting floyd would be on their undercards.

    Could you please point out to me that if one was to Point out duckweather lost and he justified his thoughts by bringing fourth his reasons that in somehow means he is hating ?

    Do you really fail to see the dichotomy?

    I can't take you serious because you said you didn't see the fight and only saw highlights. You can't give a legit breakdown and fight card by seeing highlights.
