Lets not forget Marquez came up two divisions no fights in between and Floyd deliberately failed to make the contracted weight. you can talk **** all you want about catch weights but when both fighters agree, and both make the weight you can really say a damn thing. What about the man who calls the smaller guy up, and refuses to make the weight? I mean didnt even try to take it off paid the man instead.... Obviously its for a reason. Floyds legs are no longer there, ask yourself this do you really believe Floyd is comfortable to just have to stand still and gut it out? **** no and if you say he is your a ****ing liar and shouldnt be talking about this sport anyways. Floyd was in a fight on saturday because Floyd is ****ing 35 years old thats why, his body is not able to keep up as it was able to six seven years back. Closer fight than the cards reflected but Floyd won, Notice the extra credit Floyd was given for looping shots that were clearly blocked thats the biased I am talking about its got to stop, thank god I illegally downloaded that fight
I agree with most of that. Just want to point out that Mosley was coming off a longer lay off than Floyd heading into their fight. With the Berto match falling through it had been nearly 16 months since Shane thrashed Margarito, where as Floyd was only out for about half that amount of time.
you forgot to include that mayweather fought hatton at 147. which is a big advantage considering that hatton was a career jr welter and struggled against collazo in his 147 debut
Goes to show body types makes a big difference. Floyd is supposed to be only an inch taller than JMM. But damn, in that picture he looks like he's 7 feet tall!
haha omg....marquez-even is a joke and look at the hatton fight....floyd beat an unbeaten ricky hatton(although we wont mention the collazo fight)......after that fight ricky was put on ***** st on his hometurf by juan lazcano and was saved by a ref....after seeing him knocked silly by lazcano he was put in with pillow fists paulie to look good....now paulie is a good fighter dont get me wrong...but its easy for hatton to do what he does when he can walk through everything.... even though pacs win over hatton was more highlight reel and devestating.....the one floyd fought i think was in better standing if you really look at anyways...what a joke calling marquez even....you should be shot
lolol....jmm's knees are bent....floyd is essentially standing straight up while leaning back with his upper body and his right leg slightly bent...lmao@him looking "7 ft tall"....hes stil same ole 5-8 floyd in that pic
Manny Pacqauio performed better against Oscar Dela Hoya than Floyd Mayweather did, but it's almost blasphemous to even compare the two versions of Oscar, that's like crediting Trevor Berbick for beating Muhammad Ali more convincing than Joe Frazier. Oscar, was nothing more than a depleted corpse cashing in all his tokens for one last payday. He was dried out, dehydrated, and fighting at weight he hadn't fought in seven years. Taking nothing away from Manny Pacqauio because he took on a challenge when most people considered extremely dangerous, but I refuse to give out more credit for a TKO over a half dead Oscar than Floyd who fought much more respectable version.
FLOYD ODLH>PAC ODLH - weight drained FLOYD HATTON>PAC HATTON http://cdn2.cagepotato.com/wp-content/uploads/hatton_early_516_152421a-1.jpg Floyd Shane > Pac Shane * someone find me the video where roach said they wanted shane at 140* Floyd JMM>PAC JMM - if floyd fought the pac JMM it would have been the same result Floyd Cotto > Pac Cotto - The Floyd Cotto looked 10000x better than the Pac Cotto
