    To answer your questions though, I'll list some of Floyd's weaknesses. Keep in mind though I think he's terrific, it's just that every fighter has weakness.

    1. Brittle hands (it's hardly inconceivable that an early break will one day cause a loss)
    2. Subpar power (above 140); his knockout days are pretty much in the past.
    3. Throws too few punches (a lot of judges score heavily on activity and it's again not inconceivable that he'll one day lose a contested decision because of this)

        1. They didn't give him any problems in his last fight even with the Reyes gloves

        2. If you're a superior boxer this is not a problem - as Calderon, Whitaker, and Floyd have shown

        3. He always outlands his opponents

            Whitaker lost some fights and Floyd evetually will too (let's not discuss someone who's 102 lbs. as that doesn't count for anything).

              Every time someone picks another boxer over Floyd, they are showing how ignorant they are about boxing or how biased against Floyd they are.
              What was the point of this topic? You've basically stated your contention that anyone who feels that Floyd Mayweather is beatable is, and I quote, a "dumbass". So now anyone who gives you a reason does so in the knowledge that you will consider their opinion worthless,r egardless of how well constructed it is.

              Opinions are like arseholes. Everyone has one.

                No fighter is unbeatable for one, and eventhough I didnt pick Oscar to win, he definitely made it close. Now as far as the Baldomir and Gatti fights, people were picking the fight with their heart not their brain. That tends to happen a lot.

                  He's boring, so people want him to lose. He is the boring loser of this sport with an undefeated record.

                    My point is that those who pick against him do so mainly out of hate. The others, the ones I call ignorant, all I'm saying about them is that Floyd has shown no flaws that are suceptible to being exploited, and calling out people for saying the same bull**** reason to why he'll lose (he'll eventually get caught), because this has never happened and no signs of it being close to happening have ever been seen.

                    So far, they have been proven to be "dumbasses", as Floyd has never been beate, and he's faced every type of boxer there is.

                      I basically separated the smart posters from the dumb posters by seeing SiN's list of who picked Oscar to beat Mayweather. I'd be embarrassed to be on that list.
