View Full Version : Floyd Mayweather Jr.: The Truth
Truth 09-27-2004, 06:23 PM Floyd Mayweather will clean out 140,let me just say first off I am not just saying this because I am obiviously a fan of Floyd. I really think peoole under rate him big time, he is a 140 pound version of Roy Jones in his prime. Heres the difference he has a good chin and better defense. Mayweather can beat in my opinion Tyzu, Mitchell, Gatti or anyone else from 140-147. What do you think?
neils7147933 09-27-2004, 06:26 PM He won't clean out 140 because he won't stay there long enough. He's already talking about fighting Spinks and De La Hoya.
I'm not sure he cleans out 140 anyway, though. I don't like people hopping weight classes just to get dream match-ups or higher paydays. It can end up backfiring (right, Roy?)
Mayweather got staggered by some Corley punches at 140 - can you imagine if Gatti lands something big? I think Mayweather's very, very skilled, but I'd rather see him fighting Morales, Corrales, Casamayor right now.
But he wants to do like Zab Judah and jump around weight classes.
Whatever keeps his hands off his wife, I guess.
jack_the_rippuh 09-27-2004, 06:27 PM Well...should mayweather ever take a fall...it's going to look real bad. But I agree with you, the guy is talented...reminds me of some guy I know named jack_the_ripph...
borikua 09-27-2004, 06:27 PM Mayweather can beat in my opinion Tyzu, Mitchell, Gatti or anyone else from 140-147. What do you think?
I agree, until he meets Cotto on the ring. :cool:
m00ks 09-27-2004, 06:29 PM Floyd Mayweather will not clean out the 140. He didn't have the power in 135 he certainly ain't gonna hurt no body at 140. Oh yah Morales/Mayweather sounds awesome.
mic573 09-27-2004, 06:46 PM Mayweather has enough pop in his punches at 140 to catch opponents and hurt them. It's not one punch power but still he has enough to keep opponents from running through him. I think he will have a tough time with either Mitchell or Tszyu and with a few more fights Cotto. I think he beats everyone else though. Gatti would be beaten by Mayweather. Mayweather would also be defensive against the big punchers.

Please, Gatti would get tickled if he got punched by Mayweather. He's been hit A LOT harder. Lathough I do think he can beat Gatti on points, but in terms of hurting the sob? No way.
mic573 09-27-2004, 06:55 PM He won't hurt Gatti but he wouldn't have to. Gatti can't box with Mayweather and would lose a rather lopsided decision while being outclassed.

That's right MAYWEATHER is a skilled and talented fighter . . . a scientific one. . . so that possibility is real, though it maybe argued that he doesn't have the power to put 140 pounders down with one punch that can be easily compensated by his speed and mobility . . . he can beat them on points. . . :D :D :D against Tysu, Mitchell, Gatti . . . add Cotto those are PPV fight materials . . . if those happens it's going to be good for the sport . . . it's going to be good for the division.
No sure win on all these fights . . . it can go both ways.
m00ks 09-27-2004, 07:06 PM He won't hurt Gatti but he wouldn't have to. Gatti can't box with Mayweather and would lose a rather lopsided decision while being outclassed.
That's why I'm iffy on this one. Best way to stop Gatti is to hurt him bad. I just think PBF is gonan panick when he sees Gatti the freak still coming forward. PBF better be in top shape if he wants to outbox Gatti for 12 rounds, cuz thunder ain't gonna stop.
mic573 09-27-2004, 07:24 PM When hasn't Mayweather been in top shape? He would not panick either.
m00ks 09-27-2004, 07:26 PM When hasn't Mayweather been in top shape? He would not panick either.
Where the **** in my post did I say that he's already been out of shape? I just said he better be in top shape so relax. Some fighters DO take it easy sometimes.
Heck RJJ panicked last saturday, so it is possible.
oldgringo 09-27-2004, 07:47 PM Mayweather outboxes everybody at 140 right now. Sharmba gives him a good fight but loses by UD and Gatti gets a boxing lesson much like DLH gave him. Cotto's a different story though. Give Cotto a big fight against one more tough 140 pounder and he'll be ready for Mayweather. Fall 2005 baby Cotto TKO 11.
FistFest 09-27-2004, 07:49 PM Box on the move is PBF's best tactic here and he does that best. If he ever gets tied up by Gatti, Floyd will crumple with one haymaker. Gatti will just smile at PBF's punches but Arturo will definitely be outclassed.
Gatti to Floyd in the ring: I know you can outpoint me kid but please stop massaging my abs and face with your gloves. :D
.::|ULTIMATE|::. 09-27-2004, 07:52 PM Floyd should stay at 140 beat up on some people there wait for erik to move to 135 then take him up on fighting at a catch weight of 138lbs.
Mayweather would receive more glory from beatin Morales than anyone else at 140. Lets face it Morales would be the most skilled fighter yet to face Mayweather. The most accomplished, and the one with most drawing power (MONEY).
Of course im gonna be rooting for Erik though :D

I was really just saying he would be in top shape. It wasn't really a question. I have never seen Mayweather take it easy to the point where he couldn't beat the other fighter. Plus Mayweather has been wanting this fight so he wouldn't take no chances against Gatti.
nezahualcoyotl 09-27-2004, 07:57 PM Mayweather is kinda like a lower division Roy Jones Jr. and we all saw what happened to him this past saturday. He is really scarry when it comes to physical contact. If you could put the heart of Gatti in the body of Mayweather that guy would be UNSTOPPABLE! scary thought.

If you could put the heart of Gatti in the body of Mayweather that guy would be UNSTOPPABLE! scary thought.
Mayweather stood up against the strongest 135 pound fighter in Castillo and didn't get pushed around and handle it quite well. Castillo is stronger than Gatti but Gatti hits harder. I don't think Mayweather would allow Gatti to really have an opportunity to land a punch. Mayweather has the best defense in the sport today when he chooses to use it. Gatti has tremendous heart but he is a Class B fighter who has lost to every Class A fighter he has fought and I don't think this will be any different.

Your infactuation driven by your hatred for Floyd Mayweather is truly scary. Is your averaging over 50 posts a day on the subject matter not enough? Or must you dig up 2 year old threads that have little relevance to anything?
Seriously, 1. get a life... 2. get a job... 3. go outside... do something. Because surely a person who spends this much time arguing about another man, has to be lacking one of those three.

I think the truth is to harsh for you to accept buddy.
He can beat anyone from 140 to 147? Alright just your opinion. Unfortunately that remains to be seen and PBFs latest actions doesn't show he is confident enough to take on real the opposition at 147.
So him defeating everybody at 147 will remain in your dreams until he mans up and prove it by results. :)

a) I wish Veronika Varekova was my super model girlfriend.
b) You'd probably cut off a leg to get a girl that looked like she did
But you're right... picking on you is way too easy. It's really not fair. I'll leave you alone.

He would get more respect out of a Hatton, Mosley or DLH fight.
At least we know those guys are the real deal.

Nopes he would get more respect if he can do what comes out of his mouth. Easy work? :D
Even if he beats Hatton, Mosley or DLH it will still go down to the boxing history books that he ducked one fighter during his career.

Are you logical or what?
I guess being a hardcore PBF fan, you can't accept that your so-called "brave" PBF is ducking Margarito.
But the fact is, PBF is ducking Margarito. Marga has the skills to mutilate PBF. And PBF still has a fresh memory of his first defeat from Castillo.
PBF knows that Marga is a nastier version of Castillo with better stamina, killer punches and a chin which will laugh off all his punches.

The fact is, like it or not, Floyd is undefeated and in a position where he needs big name fights. This is above boxing. This is about becoming a public figure and the public only crowns fighters "great" if they beat big names. That's how it works. That's how DLH, a really good fighter, built his empire. It's about names not proving yourself vs. the young and hungry up and coming prospect.
And why is it that in the world today nobody wants to earn ****? PBF earned the right to be in his position. AM should do the same. Keep fighting and keep winning. But nowadays everyone wants everything now, now, now, instead of working their ass off. They just want **** handed to them on a silver platter.
Don't hate the player, hate the game. PBF doesn't give a flying **** about how you or other "purists" feel about his match-making.

Look I like Floyd but you've got to be real. If Floyd wants to fight Baldomir and become the recognized champ at 147... that is fine. Since plenty of people claim, rightfully, that he is not the champ at 140 or 147. On the other hand, Margarito has earned his shot at Floyd. Face it, like it or not, Margarito is the second ranked contender in the 147 division behind Floyd with Baldomir as the champ. Margarito has held a title for 4 years and 6 defenses. Sure maybe he didn't fight the toughest guys in the 147 division but that is a combination of mandatories to retain a title (and some control over his career) and other guys not wanting to fight him... not his fault. I will not say that Floyd is ducking Margarito yet, but if his next fight after Baldomir isn't DLH/Mosley then it better be AM. He has earned a right to compete for a title and show people what he has.

8 mil and he doesn't accept, makes excuses and runs away hiding. That's a ducker dude. PLain common sense.
And btw! PBF is just a talker, he's been fighting bums like gatti's and judah's for years now when a dangerous fighter comes along, he conviniently ducks.
It is hard to accept reality.

Nah, he's not insulting, he's just slapping the truth hard. I don't know wat has gotten into you guys.
But plain and basic common sense dictates that if a guy refuses to fight a guy who offers him his biggest payday and he refuses, then that's a duck. Plain and simple.
Problem is, I don't know how common sense is formulated for you guys, Instead you linger into excuses without validations and mere techinical BS.

Well, then that's a perfect chance to fight Margarito.
Since nobody likes to fight PBF and Marga comes along with his biggest paycheck offer for PBF, then if PBF ducks, then he's no better than the Hatton's and the Hoya's and others.

Why didnt u answer the question? those bums in gatti in Zab are bigger than any name on yo boy Margorito list of names. margo should fight bums like that too, instead of unworthy bums like Gomez, and Lujan.

ANd what about him? WHy do u keep bringing up another fighter when bottomline dude. Marga has an offer of 8 mil, his biggest payday and he refuses.
That's a duck. Plain common sense. Now if you still can't figure it out and would rather bring your technical BS instead of sticking to the bottomline, then suit yourself.
Plain common sense dictates that a guy who offers 8 mil to another, and he refuses, makes up excuses, contradicts himself in the process and then runs away hiding, is a duck.
PBF doesn't deserve to be p4p. No one should be p4p elite who's a ducker and to boot he ducked his biggest payday. lol!

I don't need to answer your technical manueverings because you're in denial dude. Stick to plain common sense.
That is, if you still got some sort of it.

U a funny dude, u say margo got the skills but u want name them, wassup wit that? U work for Top Rank? Maybe u dont even believe that Margo can actaully give Floyd problems. face it dude, he aint Castillo, and u shouldnt disrespect castillo like that. So take yo bum ass to maxsucking and rant and rave over there if u cant defend yo argument
Horus 01-22-2008, 03:35 AM Nopes he would get more respect if he can do what comes out of his mouth. Easy work? :D

Horus 01-22-2008, 03:37 AM The fact is, like it or not, Floyd is undefeated and in a position where he needs big name fights. This is above boxing. This is about becoming a public figure and the public only crowns fighters "great" if they beat big names. That's how it works. That's how DLH, a really good fighter, built his empire. It's about names not proving yourself vs. the young and hungry up and coming prospect.
And why is it that in the world today nobody wants to earn ****? PBF earned the right to be in his position. AM should do the same. Keep fighting and keep winning. But nowadays everyone wants everything now, now, now, instead of working their ass off. They just want **** handed to them on a silver platter.
Don't hate the player, hate the game. PBF doesn't give a flying **** about how you or other "purists" feel about his match-making.
Damn....
This is SO TRUE TODAY...

robjr 01-22-2008, 03:44 AM Floyd Mayweather will clean out 140,let me just say first off I am not just saying this because I am obiviously a fan of Floyd. I really think peoole under rate him big time, he is a 140 pound version of Roy Jones in his prime. Heres the difference he has a good chin and better defense. Mayweather can beat in my opinion Tyzu, Mitchell, Gatti or anyone else from 140-147. What do you think?
I would never put floyd on Roy's prime level... not to disrespect him.. but I dont think those shoes will ever be filled again in our lifetime anyways..
kswizzy99 01-22-2008, 03:49 AM He won't clean out 140 because he won't stay there long enough. He's already talking about fighting Spinks and De La Hoya.
I'm not sure he cleans out 140 anyway, though. I don't like people hopping weight classes just to get dream match-ups or higher paydays. It can end up backfiring (right, Roy?)
Mayweather got staggered by some Corley punches at 140 - can you imagine if Gatti lands something big? I think Mayweather's very, very skilled, but I'd rather see him fighting Morales, Corrales, Casamayor right now.
But he wants to do like Zab Judah and jump around weight classes.
Whatever keeps his hands off his wife, I guess.
Please, Gatti would get tickled if he got punched by Mayweather. He's been hit A LOT harder. Lathough I do think he can beat Gatti on points, but in terms of hurting the sob? No way.
oh man, this is so funny. mayweather haters not seeing mayweather for what he is. not much has changed since 2004. But instead of Gatti now its Margarito and Cotto<--- 2 more guys that would lose BADLY to mayweather.
DWiens421 01-22-2008, 03:58 AM oh man, this is so funny. mayweather haters not seeing mayweather for what he is. not much has changed since 2004. But instead of Gatti now its Margarito and Cotto<--- 2 more guys that would lose BADLY to mayweather.
Well I think the first quote was spot on... if Gatti connected on Mayweather like Corley did, it wouldn't have been good for Mayweather at all, considering Corley is not a power puncher, which means he got a perfect shot in on the chin. Gatti, who had decent power probably would have KO'd Mayweather had he landed cleanly.
The second post is ridiculous. Mayweather tickled his eye closed and tickled him so hard that he had him hurt for about 50% of the fight.
El Jesus 01-22-2008, 04:54 AM Box on the move is PBF's best tactic here and he does that best. If he ever gets tied up by Gatti, Floyd will crumple with one haymaker. Gatti will just smile at PBF's punches but Arturo will definitely be outclassed.
Gatti to Floyd in the ring: I know you can outpoint me kid but please stop massaging my abs and face with your gloves. :D
man o man.
El Jesus 01-22-2008, 04:56 AM oh man, this is so funny. mayweather haters not seeing mayweather for what he is. not much has changed since 2004. But instead of Gatti now its Margarito and Cotto<--- 2 more guys that would lose BADLY to mayweather.
this thread was made when mayweather was just another top fighter, very few people hated him at the time of this thread, people didint know what mayweather had at 140 yet, we really didint know how good hed be at all past 135, you cant say the people who said this stuff were haters, while the assesments were off badly, gatti fighting mayweather was a concern because of the wars gatti was coming off of and how it seemed like if you went toe to toe with him, youd die.
Pico Hollywood 01-22-2008, 05:53 AM He would get more respect out of a Hatton, Mosley or DLH fight.
At least we know those guys are the real deal.
He fought all except for Mosley and he still gets no respect.
