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?
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.

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..
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 shit? 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 shit handed to them on a silver platter.
Don't hate the player, hate the game. PBF doesn't give a flying fuck about how you or other "purists" feel about his match-making.
Damn....
This is SO TRUE TODAY...
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 getting where I'm coming from. :cool:
DAMN..........
This is So TRUTH today..
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
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.
I don't need to answer your technical manueverings because you're in denial dude. Stick to plain common sense.

BUT
what about when someon like spinks comes along who is a legit 154lber beaten better fighters , is all round better fighter than margo and is a proven world class fighter
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!
Are you dumb? Well it's hard to admit your so-called p4p guy is a ducker.
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.

are you sure beacuse didnt hattton 3times reject him
mosley twice
cotto 1nce
oscar not ready
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.
whos he been winning though
that guy made a great post an you like the dick you are still insult him :bottle:
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.
what skills are those? and when did Floyd lose to castillo?
