Well we all know Floyd only fights once a year. As he states when he fights its like the Super Bowl of Boxing, its a celebrated event...
So considering that he only fights once a year, my question to you all is
WHO WILL FLOYD FIGHT THIS YEAR?
My hopes is that it will be Pacquiao and the only other opponent I will accept (but not really) is Martinez at 154...
Who will be Floyds ONLY OPPONENT in 2011? Thats of course if he is true to his word that he fights once a year..
You cant be serious.. Floyd Mayweather a Welter weight for nearly 5 years fighting the Junior Welterweight Champ Hatton and Lightweight Champ Marquez is better then
Pacquiao a Welterweight for nearly 2 years fighting Clottey, Margarito (who came in at 160+ ) and Mosley.. All natural Welterweights an above..?
SMH..
just looking at the names is hard to argue so you have to look at what condition those fighters were in leading up to the fight
I'm a believer in the saying "your just as good as your last fight"
Whats up with some of Floyds disciples on my thread saying Floyd can pick who he wants or he doesnt have to fight anyone in 2011..
Is that really what you call P4P quality? Come on man.
still better opponents then Clottey Mosley and Margarito at a catchweight

c'mon man!
at least marg had the height, reach and weight advantage on pac.
jmm had no advantage on wifebeater. none.
I would agree with you if Marg ever used his height and reach in any of his fight or if he had any boxing skills Size and reach was irrelevant and a Plaster-free Margarito power was questionable
both fights were garbage Marquez had no business at 147 but still JMM looked good before and after the Mayweather fight thats the only reason I would say its the better garbage fight
thats the popular line right now but fact is at the time people thought Hatton was a dangerous opponent for Floyd at 147 and other then Cotto he fought the best guy available at the time
Marquez was a BS fight but still better then Margarito for a vacant belt at a catchweight IMO
Hatton at 147? Not in my books. You need to go by history and a few other factors. He had a very average fight at 147 then went back down to 140 and won a couple of fights. Floyd called him back up to 147.
Hatton was a career 140 fighter. Some fighters are only good at certain weights. Hatton couldn't do the things he wanted to against a 147lb. At least, not effectively.
Marquez at 147 better than Margarito at 150? Wow, not even close!

You better edit that because Clottey was not at a catchweight. Mosley will probably not be either and Margarito came in at 150.
Marquez and Hatton had how many fights between them at 147 yet they were perfect opponents for Floyd!
Better? Not even close .... Manny's was better!

I aint gonna argue with that.. Lets see Hatton the JUNIOR WELTERWEIGHT CHAMP... Marquez the LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMP...
Maybe hes looking for a Bantamweight or Straw weight..?

It's crzay....they don't expect their hero or P4P number 1 to fight the best, but they expect it from the number 2 guy??
Floyd can fight whomever he wants.........

very true.....thats why he never fought margo, and cotto and will never fight pac or martinez..........
So floyd has only two choices, Martinez or Pac? So Pac should have only have 2 choices Martinez and Floyd...if he isnt fighting floyd then he should be fighting Martinez correct??? NOPE he is fighting Mosley...

For one Floyd doesnt have to fight anybody at this point, he has proves himself. I would like to see him fight Pac but if it doesnt happen then oh well. FLoyd doesnt have to fight the Middle weight champ either.
Your hero doesnt have to do anything does he? not even fight once. As long as he subjects himself to OSTs then all is right in your world. I can understand why he's your hero, haha
