The HARDEST fights for Floyd RIGHT NOW...

Movement gives him fits...

Then why did he easily beat Joel Julio who was running all over the ring? On top of that Julio has a little bit of pop.

Mayweather hasn't shown that much movement in years.

We can only speculate he can still move that much.

And the bolded part is relevant because you're making comparisons based on variables that do not pertain to this fight.

I know Angulo is slow, but he's big, relentless, strong, durable, with great stamina.

He could easily use his physical strength to push Mayweather against the ropes, and his southpaw stance to deliver powerful shots from unorthadox angles.

We can only speculate Floyd can keep the fight in the center of the ring, but evidence suggests otherwise.

And everytime Mayweather goes against the ropes against this type of fighter, he will be in danger of being stopped.

If you disagree, that's fine.

But I didn't pick him out of my ass.

I got good reasons for it. If Angulo was smaller, you'd have a better argument, but there are weight classes for a reason

And a guy like Angulo despite being slower, will cause a guy like Mayweather a lot more problems than say, Ricky Hatton for example.

Understand?

 

Of course Martinez won't have the same success being the aggressor, but he's long and fast enough to do just enough to make Floyd have to come at him to win some rounds.

If that the case, he can catch Floyd when he's most vulnerable.

And even when Martinez plays the role of a stalker, he's patient.

He won't just rush in. He'll use feints like he always does. He'll eventually time Mayweather and shoot that left straight low.

Mayweather may win this fight, but it won't be easy. None of the guys I listed will be easy for Mayweather.

He may win a clear decision with some, but everyone of these guys will land more shots than Hatton, Marquez, Mosley, and Ortiz.

 

Man, look.

You can't change my opinion that Mayweather ducked Margarito. I seen the videos and Mayweather should have made the fight after Margarito stopped Cotto.

It didn't happen.

Mayweather retired. Margarito was not an easy fight. It wasn't a good risk reward ratio. It's a fight where Mayweather would literaly have to run for his life.

No man wants to be in that position.

And Khan is NO PROBLEM. Man, please stop with Khan. Khan is predictable, weak, and would get knocked out.

It would be Mayweather's first KO in years.

That's an EASY fight for Mayweather. Khan is a straight foward, monotonous combinations style of fighter.

He is too weak to beat Floyd.

The only guys with the SKILLS and ABILITY to beat Floyd are Pacquaio and Martinez....and possibly Lara.

Angulo and Williams have the STYLE and the SIZE. At some point, size matters.

 

Either way, I think we can all agree that it would be a great fight.

Personally, I'd rather see him fight Pacquaio because I think they owe the public that fight, but if Mayweather wants to test himself against Martinez...

I'm all for it.

But Khan... I don't care to see that fight. I just can't think of anything that Khan can do.

He'll throw a lot of useless speed flurries, but other than that...he'll just eat counters, and Mayweather will use a similiar style to Klitschko when he fought Haye.

He'll deliver slow, steady pressure, from the center of the ring.

 

Damn right Angulo is basic.

But Floyd can't hurt Angulo. He can't even make him blink. The only shot he has is keeping it in the center of the ring, and potshotting to victory.

If he goes against the ropes, that SOUTHPAW left uppercut and left straight are gonna get in his ass.

A southpaw DOES matter against Floyd's style of defense.

Khan may not be as straight foward as Angulo, but he's small and weak and will run from Floyd.

He can't outbox him. He will just run.

As far as Margarito is concerned, we can just agree to disagree. That's a dead subject. You can't change my opinion, I can't change yours. It's irrelevant at this point.

I also disagree that Pac is running. I think Mayweather is being unreasonable. He goes out of his way to ruin Pacquaio's reputation with no evidence, tells the entire world that he's defenitely going to fight, and then it never happens.

And it's always because of additional demands from Mayweather.

I don't care if you agree with his stance or not, he's the one that's not tryin to make the fight.

PERIOD.

I think Pacquaio has a shot if he can freeze Floyd in the corner. Floyd can't afford to get stuck on the ropes against Pacquaio and again his southpaw stance comes into play.

Pacquaio ain't some light hitter.

This is the guy that made Mosley run for his life after getting hit with one solid shot.

Alvarez beat the **** outta Mosley with everything he had and Mosley kept coming back for more.

Pacquaio has that real power. Not that bull**** pushing power.

And he got speed and he's a dangerous counterpuncher.

In theory, yes Mayweather can keep the fight in the center of the ring and use lateral movement and pivots and make it a boring one sided fight, but that's THEORY.

If he's gonna talk all that ****, he needs to fight.

I mean, I wanna see the fight. Don't you? Would you rather see Khan who MARK MY WORDS will get STOPPED.

He will RUN from Floyd.

 

And this thread is getting side tracked again.

But I disagree about Khan. I don't see him being a threat at all.

Certainly not above all the others that I mentioned.

 

The problem with discussing Floyd is that none of this **** will ever happen.

He won't fight one person on my list.

So what's the point? He's gonna fight Khan.

He's gonna make Khan expend energy by running all over the place, and he's gonna slowly push him, and then eventually when Khan runs out of gas, Mayweather will KO him.

Against Paul Williams and Angulo, Floyd has to literaly run for his life to win.

Pacquaio and Martinez he can't afford to make any mistakes with...and probably Lara too.

Khan...

That's easy money. And that's likely who Floyd will fight next.
