    I can already picture it now. The tagline for this fight

    Crawford/Mayweather - The Las Vegas Marathon.

    Nah, man.

    Most of the Floyd fans on this site are pretty high on Crawford, too. Prime for prime, I'd favor FMJ, but I think TC could give him enough different looks even then to make a match-up btx the two pretty interesting.

    I respect your opinion but most Floyd fans are hating on TC right now.

    Prime for prime I favour Floyd as well. But I think next year TC is the man with best chance of being him.

    I would pick Crawford to beat Mayweather right now, Mayweather is knocking 40 years old, Crawford is young, fresh and getting better and better.

    A few years ago I would have picked Mayweather, It wouldn't have even been debatable in my opinion but age and wear and tear is an issue now, that's why Mayweather picked Berto, he knows.

    mayweather picked berto because he and haymon were giving him a gift payday as thanks for berto backing out of the shane mosley fight years ago so Floyd could have him

    that's all that was

    Yeah, I agree. But honestly, luf, take a look and see who's posting negative things about TC in eecent threads. You'll find that it's generally the same group of people who posted negative things about Floyd.

    Meanwhile, Pimp, Manfred, alexthegreatmc and and the rest of the group referred by some posters as "The Demographic" were very complimentary of TC and his performance against Postol.

    I think the narrative is actually reversed in this particular case.

    So Mayweather was being serious when he said Berto or Karim Mayfield, why was Mayfield mentioned? What was he thinking him for?

    If Mayweather comes back for a 50th he won't go anywhere near Crawford.

    Mayweather won't go anywhere near Thurman either. Mayweather will cherry pick, I don't blame him and nobody can, he is nearly 40 and had a long career and fought many great fighters but let's not pretend he is the same Mayweather any longer.

    Mayweather is all about ego and if he thought he could have done the 50th and broke the record he would of, it would have been a massive payday and he will probably do it at some point but it won't be a fighter that's remotely dangerous, he knows he isn't the same any more and age is starting to take its toll.

    Crawford would beat him now but Mayweather a few years ago would have beat this Crawford easily but age has beaten or will beat Mayweather.

    he mentioned Mayfield to give him some publicity as hes a friend

    they gave berto the fight as a thank you payday for what he did for Floyd years ago

    you should let go of what Floyd did to you...he didn't mean to hurt you

    I don't know who the demographic is.

    I just tend to notice that most people high on Floyd are low on Crawford and vice versa.

    What did I say about Mayweather that was remotely insulting? :lol:

    Read it again, I said Mayweather is nearly 40 and nobody can blame him for a 50th fight cherry pick if he did it, he has had a long career and fought great fighters and a few years ago he would have beaten Crawford easily.

    I think you need to let go my friend, Mayweather at this moment in time is retired, he wouldn't or won't fight any remotely dangerous fighter if or when he goes for the 50th.

    So Mayfield needed some publicity for a career that is dead in the water and Berto needed some thanks, OK :lol:

    What did Conor McGregor do? Why was Mayweather talking about that for weeks on end or was that a joke? What was he thanking him for? Also McGregor didn't need any publicity :lol:

    You need to chill out little man :good

    he gave Mayfield publicity....Mayfield is a friend and has actually had a fight this year.....he was also insulting pac "he fought chris algieri so why not Mayfield"...lol

    what do I need to let go? I accept hes retired...im not making threads about him daily ...like the people who are still hurt by Floyd dominating the sport for years

    they are the little men...and you are one of them

    he prob mentioned McGregor because its a legit circus sideshow that would prob get him another 100+ mil payday...and money interests him.....you dweeb

    Look little man, I'm British so I never had any skin in the game so to speak when it came to the ridiculous May Pac rivalry, I never got involved and most British boxing fans didn't.

    I really liked Mayweather as a fighter, he was a super talented fighter :huh

    As for Mayweather as a man outside of the ring then I don't entertain, worship or like women abusers but that's just me, maybe you are OK with stuff like that.

    But Mayweather was a very talented fighter and I've never suggested anything otherwise.

    You just make things up in your little mind, your little life is so empty you need to fill it with your little imagination.

    This would be a great fight!! Fans would go crazy watching both fighters standing at opposite sides of the ring, moving away from each other, and waiting for the other to engage. Both would never come within eight feet from each other. Repeat for 12 rounds. Fight would end in a draw. Rematch is in order. The Runner vs The Hugger II. Question is, would you buy the PPV again?

    more speculation about what my life is like....typical around here....bunch of dweebs ....calling someone that most likely towers over them "little man"....

    "im british"...thanks for the explanation...now I get it
