    You don't think PBF is past his best? It's not an excuse it's fact.

    Skill for skill, tallent for tallent, Rigo is the best in the world, followed by either Ward or Broner and then maybe GGG.

    Martinez, Marquez, and Pacquaio are on their way out...so is Floyd.

    I don't worry too much about his hand speed. He has arguably the best timing in boxing. His foot speed has slowed down completely. Bernard Hopkins has shown better lateral movements when he was in his early 40's than Floyd has shown us as of late.

    I like the way he fights against southpaws even though it's bit risky, but as long they aren't on Martinez's or Manny's level in terms of foot speed, counter-punching ability, ect, then he has nothing to worry about. I do think Floyd Sr is a better fit for him when it comes to fighting against orthodox boxers.

    But if Mayweather loses to a Guerrero level fighter, he got what he gets.

    I mean, he had every chance to fight Pacquaio and lose to a great fighter or maybe win, but he instead chose to talk ****.

    And the thing is, Pacquaio was a smaller man coming up. It's not like Pacquaio was Martinez or Canelo or GGG or some other big dude, but a small dude.

    Good job Sherlock, you solved the case. He got bruised from a punch, the only conclusion is that he is "shot". One time in 5th grade I got hit in the eye and had a bruise, and I too knew from that moment on I was "shot", despite the fact is was 8 years old.

    His body is breaking down, he is starting to bleed. Before when he cut himself shaving no blood would come out, now that he is older when he cuts himself with a knife or razor he actually bleeds.

    Time for Mayweather to retire, for the first time in his life he got a bruise, an apparent rare and serious injury that indicates someone is shot.

    He went into the ring against Mosely with a bruised eye too.

    Was he shot then?

    Hes slowed down, the important thing is he made adjustments.

    Mayweather is so good people expect him to be invincible. He has a tough fight then there's a whiplash effect with a shitload of exaggerations about his current state. No other fighter has to face these expectations because we're used to seeing them fight hard.

    Mayweather takes two hard shots from Shane and walks Mosley down. His legs are shots according to none other than expert trainer roach. Two fights later he performs like a fighter who has plenty in the tank.

    Look at the facts surrounding Floyd's last performance. Cotto, who is a great fighter relative to what's available today, seriously came to fight that night. Then he touched Floyd up a couple of times with the jab. ODLH also got Floyd with the jab six years ago when Floyd was still clearly in his prime.

    Floyd is a technician with many tools and a high ring iq to compensate for slowing down.

    People say that Mayweather made adjustments, but I don't understand that.

    As you get older, you should move more and bait your opponent into being the aggressor more.

    Floyd does one, but not the other.

    If Floyd fights Canelo for instance, and he doesn't move, Canelo will hurt him, and will beat him.

    He's too big and too strong for Mayweather to just stand in front of him.

    I mean, don't get me wrong, James Toney could do it, but James Toney is the most ganster fighter of this generation.

    HE just don't give a ****.

    Mayweather is no James Toney.

    who doesnt get hit in sparring.... lighter contact may lead to less injuries but hard contact may better prepare individuals for competition or self-defense.
