    We have a talented fighter that calls his own shots, decides who he wants to fight not who the fans want him to fight,
    and his claim to fame is I’m undefeated and fought many so called world champions in an era where a championship belt
    comes a dime a dozen, and has little value. If you are the number one fighter in your weight division or pound for pound the best
    then why not fight the second best out there.

    but he beat Marcos Maidana TWICE, Victor Ortiz (by legit KO) AND Robert Guerrero three ATG's (check out their resumes) :cool:

    Victor Ortiz is pretty much retired
    Guerrero took his Floyd payday and split
    Marcos will probably take his payday and split intill he is needed again to take out trash at 147

    That's what I love what the UFC do - You MUST fight the No.2 guy in your class. End of.

    Floyd, as much as a great Boxer that he is, is not a TRUE fighter. What kind of fighter calls themselves 'a rich coward'?

    The money ruined Floyd. And now he wants a year off? So much for hard work and dedication!

    I agree, Mayweather has the skill but take a look at his resume especially his last 4 fights.

    He fought these "champions", young undefeated.
    He knows how to hype up his fights, but mentioning pacquiao who is a "has been and has losses" but fights Ortiz,.... Where is he now, Guerrero, maidana ... Etc

    Atleast with UFC you get to see the best fight the best in each division.

    The ufc is not being run responsibly either. Those guys gotta take fights on short notice all the time and a lot of them aren't particularly great to watch. Rather watch Bellator
