    Dragging a guy new to the lightweight division up two classes to welterweight was classless and resulted in a farce of a fight with a painfully predictable result that put a needless loss on JMM's record and slowed his career's momentum.

    Which begs the question: which fighter would have been better suited to fight a returning Floyd Mayweather?

    At the time, it would've been Mosley.

    The Great Ghana Joshua "Stand There" Clottey. His style would have made for a low action, but interesting fight against $.

    He could have waited until after the Pac-Hatton bout and called out Pacquiao
