    Why has Mayweather stopped more boxers at 147 than Pacquiao?

    The answer is. . .

    (drum roll)

    Its because they did not fought the same opponents.. :hey

    Could Mayweather have stopped Clottey? :D Would he even fight Margarito at 150? :lol: We all know what happened to Mayweather-Mosley fight.. How about that version of Marquez that fought Pacquiao? Rios? Bradley? :patsch

    Jas is a ducker and has been exposed as a troll who knows nothing about box.

    But if you compare their performance against common opponents, Manny stopped both ODLH and Cotto, knocked Hatton out in 2 and busted JMM's face in 6, and the SMM fight.. Its easy to know who hits harder..

    You know, a former flyweight champ..

    Younger Floyd had more offense then defense, which would of made it a very good fight. I still would of picked Floyd to beat him because he was better skilled, faster hands, and better foot work.

    This is what I'm not getting, most people are saying this as if it that favors Floyd. He would still not KO Cotto, yet give Cotto plenty more opportunity to hit him...don't see that as a good thing at all for Floyd.

    Arum said while Mayweather would have taken the $8 million to fight Margarito, he asked for a $10 million guarantee to fight opponents such as Miguel Cotto and Ricky Hatton, when Arum was only willing to guarantee $7 million.

    Arum said Mayweather also asked for $20 million to fight De La Hoya, a fight Arum said he wasn't interested in participating in.

    "That's not in the cards," Arum said. "He wants $20 million for the De La Hoya fight? It's not there. Sometimes, my man, you gotta know when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em. We'll talk about things down the road."
    Arum ...

    conclusion : Floyd did not duck Margarito, the only way the fight would happen is if Arum would promote Cotto and Hatton with Floyd for much cheaper then Floyd would agree to. We all know that Floyd went on too make 3x as much in each of those fights then what Arum was offering.


    And what happen with Floyd and Shane ? Last I check Shane got two good shots and then got his ass whooped to no end !
