    So you want to see mayweather brain damaged like Muhammed Ali because he gets paid loads of money?

    Yeah I'm sure Ali loves the millions he's rolling in while he can barely move and talk.

    Shut up you moron.

    Floyd's style lends it's self to longevity more than any other style in the game. Besides, the man hasn't got a mark on him.

    He hasn't touched the canvas, hasn't been stopped - so why the comparison with Ali?

    Face it: Floyd has got 5+ LEGIT challengers he could have faced, instead he chose the most undeserving WW out there.

    :deal

    I would add that he looked great against Canelo because Canelo is slow plodder who telegraphs his punches and has a style easy for Mayweather.

    Khan vs Mayweather would have been the fight to make. Khan is a good pure boxer.

    So you think floyd hasn't taken blows to the head? I suggest you watch the cotto fight and maidana fight and listen to floyd's speech.

    You know nothing about boxing, you think it's some fcking video game where the punches bounce of their heads with a comical cartoon sounds

    This is fcking real life son and people's lives on the line. This is the way I'm looking at it, floyd has done all he's needed to prove he is the best, and I'm not even a fan of this guy because I know he's no doubt juicing.

    But juicing doesn't protect you from brain damage neither does it stop the ageing process

    Fck brook, khan, thurman, they'd get all their asses handed to them, so the hell are you moaning?

    Still he beats one of them and people would still ***** about some other opponent who they felt he should've fought.

    They should just box in secret in some empty gym and tell us all about it.

    Would have preferred Khan (or many of the other fighters you mentioned) but i think it's a better fight (entertainment wise) then if he faced Lara and surely Berto can't be more disappointing then Pac or perform worse then Canelo?

    Well that just proves you have no idea what you're talking about. Look, I'm against this BS Berto fight. But to be so ignorant and not to even know that Guerrero had WON the WELTERWEIGHT title AND defended it in the 2 fights previous to his fight with Mayweather shows that you're making lazy, uneducated statements. At the time, the Pac fight wasn't happening, it was between Alexander and RG and it was unanimously agreed by everyone on the planet that the RG fight was way better.

    I'm good with it. Wish it wasn't PPV though.

    Floyd has nothing left to prove and who really thinks that Brook, Thurman, Khan or Garcia stand a chance after seeing Floyd run through Cotto, Canelo and Pacquiao?

    Let's see if the new blood at 147 show the same enthusiasm to fight each other like they are Floyd.

    As I said before my view on this is rather simple.

    1) Yes, Floyd is 38, at the end of his career and is due his "swan song" fight if he so chooses.
    2) If he is going to choose an opponent like Berto, it should be for free on CBS, not PPV.
    3) If he is fighting Berto on PPV, I will not purchase the fight. Completely not PPV worthy.

    So in short, Floyd can kiss my ass on this PPV. And I'm somebody who generally buys all the fights on PPV. Not pleased at all and certainly won't pay $70 to watch this. I'll see the replay the week after.

    I think the PPV is going to bomb, and bomb hard. Certainly will be the lowest PPV numbers Mayweather has done since his Gatti/Baldomir days is my prediction.

    RG did not deserve the fight and Berto is a bum.

    If they'd get their asses handed to them, does that mean that Berto is actually a threat to Floyd?

    Floyd has THE LOWEST % of punches taken EVER. So shut up with your nonsense.

    He "Won" a vacant title against an absolute no-mark. And then beat a past-it Berto. I mean who did Berto beat? Zaveck? :lol::lol::lol:

    Go away dude. Go away.

    Not a fan of it especially on PPV but I wanted him to retire after his last fight. PBF honestly can do what he wants to he's earned that right for his last fight.
