    Floyd has had the chance to be great, how many more fights will he have 1 maybe 2. He has had he chances to cement his legacy , but he would rather have the money than fight the best of his generation. Its also important to remember if he fought his opponents when they were at their best and the last four have not been.

    I just had to reply to this.

    People criticize Floyd for how his career unfolded north of 135.
    You mentioned Zab Judah, Oscar dela Hoya at his natural weight, undefeated Ricky Hatton, bloated but still great JMM and Shane Mosley.

    Of these opponents, full credit is due for taking on and defeating Mosley as well as Judah--but Judah was manhandled first by Baldomir. Oscar was also a solid win, though him being a part-time fighter at that point must also be taken into account.

    Now, Hatton although undefeated was a shaky proposition at 147--it was simply not his best weight. "Bloated but still great JMM"--this, is plainly meaningless.

    Marquez fighting Floyd at welterweight--no, actually him making 144 while Floyd came in at 146--is almost like making Chava Sanchez go up to 147 and giving his opponent undeserved credit for flummoxing the **** out of him. Sanchez is undoubtedly a great wasn't he, but against welterweights he was untested and beating him at that weight wouldn't prove anything.

    Floyd's track record at welterweight totes two legit guys: Mosley & Judah. That says it all.

    Dude, Why? You see what this thread is all about. Time and Time again I see you posting on these NON-BOXING Threads about Floyd Mayweather and it's so obvious that the "agenda" is to spread as much Hate for Floyd. These Posters go on & on about their Hatred of Floyd but yet spend an enormous amount of time on his Twitter Page, Facebook page and his website. Just to post threads about every part of his life that has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH BOXING!!! Leave these Mutha'fukas to themselves and let them lick each other balls in these kinds of threads.

    Here is a good analogy. Being from Michigan, I am assuming that you are a ball player (cuz' in cities like Detroit, Flint and Grand Rapids Hoops is BIG-TIME). So if you go to a "Hoop-Park" with many courts. And there is always the "Main" Court where the Big-Time Ballers Play...and then on the other courts is nothing but recreational fat-boys who are extremely un-athletic and can't play worth **** and know nothing about the sport...Why would you play on that court. Your game won't get any better, you won't get any real challenges and it would be a complete WASTE OF TIME!!!

    The same can be said about posters that create these kinds of threads:
    "**** Manny Pacquiao"
    "Floyd ain't ****"
    "Floyd is Gay"
    "Manny has a Big Head"
    BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.

    Posters who create theads like that...don't deserve to have knowledgeable Boxing Fans posting in those Juvenile-ass threads...YOU'RE BETTER THAN THAT!!! And if you noticed...it's always the same group of people (Newbies or two particular posters that I will never mention by name again...only refer to them as PUNK-ASS-*****-MADE TRANS-GENDERED-***S, and they know who they are).

    Anyway...Denard Robinson better get ready for those Buckeyes in less then two months. Or are you a Michigan State Fan?

    Where my allegiance lies? What is this, a HUAC committee you ******* *****?

    As for Bradley, he is the #10 P4P fighter in the world according to the Ring, regarded as the best 140lber in the world outside of Pac, and holds a belt in that division. Manny's best weight is 140lbs. That would be a legit fight for Pac, so don't give me those ******* excuses. If I were to use your logic for discrediting opposition, I'd say Manny is ducking an actually skilled and slick fighter to knock out another fighter who blocks punches with his face, is slow and has zero defense and is coming off a knockout loss. Remind you of someone? Ahemm....Ricky Hatton...

    Much of Jake LaMotta's status as a great, even ATG (Ring Mag's 52nd best fighter of the last 80 years) lies on his beating SRR (the GOAT) that one fight. Robinson was much smaller than the natural MW LaMotta, and simply wasn't a natural MW at the time of the fight. Do we discredit LaMotta for his win over a true ATG because Robinson was the smaller man? If not, why do we do it to Floyd?

    WTF?! Bradley needs to prove himself first, who has he fought that makes you think he's ready for Pac? Wasn't Alexander gonna be a great challenge for Pac too, what happened in his last fight? And you really think Bradley is a bigger challenge for Pac than Margo is? Because if you do then maybe you should watch boxing more...really.

    Are you ****ing ******ed? Was Robinson MW champ or not? Marquez has NEVER fought at WW before he fought, and seeing how fat he was in that fight probably never will again. Jesus ****ing Christ, you *****s are ****ing ******ed.

    I never said anything about Alexander buddy, ask MW, I called hypejob on that guy way before the Kotelnik fight. Bradley is a much better fighter than Margarito. Margarito's only advantage is size, and maybe chin (although it's already been pre-cracked for Pac, since that's the only way Pac fights his opponents, pre-beaten). Bradley is the best at 140, Pacquiao is the best in the world, and a natural 140lber. That fight is as natural as it gets. Floyd was getting **** for not fighting the threats at his weight class, why is Pac immune to the same criticism? Cuz you like him so much? And just because Margo is bigger, doesn't mean he's a bigger challenge. He is tailor made for Pac, just like Hatton was, and is coming off a huge KO loss, even worse than Hatton was. This is not Pac taking on a threat, this is Pac making it look like he's taking on a threat.

    You haven't answered my question..who has Bradley fought that makes you think he's ready for Pac? Pac will absolutely destroy Bradley then what? Bradley was just another hypejob? Was he supposed to fight Mosley? Then after beating Mosley then what? Taking Mayweather's left overs again? Please we all know Pac ain't never gonna please you guys. And just FYI, I hate the Pac v Margo fight, but what the hell was Pac supposed to do? Wait for Floyd when the man clearly doesn't want any part of him?
