    I respect Floyd and his boxing skills and think he is definitely the best P4P. I would just like to see him fight Mosely. If he fought and beat Sugar Shane then definitely in my eyes he would be considered the best of his generation without a doubt.

      if floyd can beat mosley which I doubt. Then mayweather has me convinced.. He also should fight margarito. But floyd always has an excuse of who not to fight, and picks the fights he prefers..

        Margarito sucks. Mosley would be a good opponent.

          NSB gets very ****** at times, Cotto beats Judah and Paulie M. so that proves he is a proper fighter, Mayweather Beats Judah, Castillo, Corrales and De La Hoya and he is a *****, dude's retired at the moment and NSB is still full of threads about the same old thing. lol.

            I didn't rate those fighters above PBF, I would just like to see him fight them. PBF would still be the favorite over them for me. However, It wouldn't surprise me if he gets beat by one of them.

            PS who would u like to see Floyd fight? Or would you prefer him to stay retired?

              you know if were really a fan you would want him to fight these guys also. Why do you act so protective? I would rather hear things like he would outclass Cotto and specific reasons why he would beat Mosley not that he doesnt need to face guys like these. I would love for him to fight these guys not to see him get his ass handed to him but because it would be entertaining and elite vs elite type fights.

                the orginal comment wasnt aimed at you.

                Cotto, Mosley, Hatton, and i dont think any one of them is the favorite over floyd, obviously cotto is the new flavour of the month for the haters, once it was hatton, then it was judah, then it was de la hoya,

                Think Logically in terms of skills, strength and weakness, you couldnt pick any of those 3 against floyd imo, doesnt mean they wouldnt win, but its unlikely, and i cant be bothered to go though the reasons why for the 100th time, because some people on here think mayweather is gonna allow someone to walk up to him and land on his body free of charge, without firing back.

                Everyday is on nsb its the same thing.

                Castillo beat mayweather (no he didnt)
                Mayweather is a runner (he boxes fron the outside)
                He cant take a shot (watch rounds 11 and 12 of the de la hoya fight)
                He ducks fighters (so its okay for moesly to use his tooth as an excuse for not fighting floyd)

                    What what about a Winky Wright vs. Floyd Mayweather bore fest.

                    No seriously I think Mosley, which I think that SS would win. I would also like to see a Cotto fight.

                      I really dont understand the attitude that Floyd and most of his fans present. To make statements that you are currently the best fighter in the world and then being so obvious that you are picking and choosing opponents is pretty ridiculous. But at least from Floyds perspective I can see that most of what comes out of his mouth is a PR ploy although he does truly believe he is the best p4p currently I truly think deep down he has accepted that there are other boxers who although he may be able to beat them, Mosley, Cotto, Margarito, true prime champs at 154, are just too great of a risk and a loss would tarnish the semi-illusion he has worked very hard to create. Please feel free to explain if you think Im off base here.
