    At least Floyd isn't fighting Golden Johnson like your life partner did.:lol:

    JMM is better than Alphonso Gomez and Micheal Jennings:deal

    Great small guy >>> Big bum

    How would mayweather want to be called by a boxer?

    boxer 1--- "Hey come mayweather fight me I'm the best possible opponent for you so won't loss your unbeaten record" -JMM

    boxer 2 --- "hey common may if you have some balls fight me... I'm the same weight as you are and I have a belt" -cotto, mosley or PW

    boxer 3 --- " I want 2 payt meyweder vecause he is taf and he neber loss and he is a grit payter" pac :lol:


    Mayweather ---- "ok let's see.... boxer 2 is some big guys and I might get my ass kick??? hmmmm boxer 3 kick the a**es of the guys that I fought more rounds..... hmmmm hey manager I've decided I will go for boxer #1 and tell him I want him to move up division...":lol:

    :yep

    That's why certain fighters will only say "I fights who my managements tells me to fights"

    Pac had beaten PBF two best oponent in more devastating fashion. He thinks if he beats JMM in better fashion he can then claim number 1 p4p status...he is mistaken.

    Understand me. My opinion as to why Floyd is fighting JMM is because Floyd does not have faith in making a PAc fight with Arum so he wants to cut a fighter out leaving Shane is the only available big name option. He also wants to beat JMM clearly something Pac has not done. Floyd is fighting a man JMM alredy fought. Look at what people said about how PAc beat Dlh and Hatton better than Floyd...well, its Floyd's turn lol...

    PAc and JMM is still a good ppv fight if JMM gives good account of himself. Dapidran will have no other route to go as far as big money fights if JMM is out of the way. JMM will still be in the picture if he doesn't lose to Floyd badly.

    Arum is playng his cards well. Believe me, Arum wants to stick it to Floyd badly. If Dapidran beats Cotto, and Floyd beats JMM, and both start negotiations, and they break down... both men will pursue a fight with Shane.

    Arum will **** himself because Shane would take Floyd in a heartbeat...because...he won't have to drain:yep

    Floyd doesn't put *****-ass weight restrictions on fighters.

    Voted other reasons.

    Clearly it's because Manny's last two opponents are Mayweather's last two opponents and because Marquez gave Pacquiao his toughest two fights, a win over Marquez makes both recent records look similar. Another reason is because Mayweather obviously wants to fight Pacquiao next and is getting ready to make the catchweight limit he knows they will pick and this fight is a perfect one to prepare him for it after 2 years out.

    So?, Mayweather is a former Super feather and lightweight too, Pacquiao is a former Flyweight. Does this mean Cotto is a coward for fighting a former Flyweight?

    If Mayweather didn't fight the 36 year old former lightweight then I'm sure you know Pacquiao was going to and at light welter. :deal This fight does nothing but secure a fight with Pacquiao if Marquez wins, so if Marquez wins and Pacquiao wins prepare to see Pacquiao fight the 36 year old Lightweight. :lol: Hey, he might be 37 by the time it happens.

    Shane wasn't sitting pretty like this a while back lol..., but what's guaranteed is that he has gotten older lol. Shane imo will have to think carefully who he wants to fight if both Floyd and PAc win. He might go by who does better numbers ppv wise between Cotto-Dapidran and Floyd-JMM, or he might listen to Dlh and fight Floyd which is guaranteed a super fight at a better weight for Shane. Pac might also say he would fight Shane who is older at 147. That would be hypocritical imo of Pac though because he fought Cotto at a catch weight. Lots of scenarios...
