    This is beyond embarrassing. Unless he's fightin someone else on that night too then mayweather needs to get out of here with this ****.

    Indefensible. There are loads of suitable options Khan, brook, Thurman, Garcia, Bradley, Lara, even Porter would have been ok but this? F you and your BS swansong Floyd. You won't be missed and this type of last minute cash grab is why.

    You know Mayweather didn't start his career at 147 right? He did move up in weight throughout his career. This is an awful fight but that's a silly thing to say.

    Okay how was he cherrypicking when Arum controlled his career when he was with Top Rank?:deal BTW the last time I checked he was 2-0 against JLC deal with it.

    Obviously... The point is Floyd moved up and cherry picked... The other fighters mentioned moved up a sought to fight the top dogs out of each division.

    They made enough money on the Pacquiao fight to hold 2 sinker PPV's and it wouldn't matter. I was hoping this was on CBS.

    Cherry-picked? You mean Hatton, Judah, and Canelo?

    compare Floyd to Roy Jones who moved up and fought the ultimate cherry picks. He wouldn't fight the #1 fighter and damn sure would have never fought Pacquiao but you want to say Floyd cherrypicks? :lol::rofl:patsch

    Yes.. Hatton was a decent win. Judah, the same judah who was coming off a loss to the great Baldomir!!! As for Canelo, he will be thw face of boxing as he now just enters his prime.

    It didn't matter what he moved up for but he still dared to be great if you don't dare to be great you end up like Zoo who fought his whole career at 140 when there were fighters like Shane, Oscar, and Tito around him that he could have fought.:deal The guy moved up he didn't have to he took many risks in his career you're just mad his risks didn't end in the result you hoped for so of course now you will say he took no risk.

    The point is PBF was so much better than everyone else in this era and no one 154 and down with the exception of Winky Wright at 154 would have been favored over him, that right there tells you how great he is.:deal

    Oscar cherrypicked guys where have you been? After he got his ass kicked he threw caution into the wind and started fighting guys like Hopkins. He damn sure didn't fight Forrest or Winky and for good reason.:deal
