Without getting so emotional, I agree completely with that. If he didn't have a big mouth, 90% of the people that don't like him would love him.
Mayweather next opponent

Fight Mosley. The biggest fight that can be made in boxing besides for a DLH rematch. It shouldnt be that difficult. Split it 60-40, and do the damn thing already. The Cotto fight could be something huge, so you have to wait it out and hope that Miguel can beat Margarito.Comment

Or Paul Williams...but I don't think Cotto is interested in Williams. Cotto will probably want the winner Hatton-Castillo. If it's Hatton, Cotto should look somewhere else because I seriously doubt Hatton will fight another threat after Castillo. That will be more like 2009.Comment

First let me say that I respect Floyd's skills, and I always have. The thing that gets me though is the way he contradicts himself. He says its not about the belts, but he always has to remind everybody that hes a 5 division "champ". He says he doesnt need the money anymore yet he claims he will only fight guys who he can make money with. He claims its all about legacy, yet he retires in his prime when the Welterweight division is the best its been in a long time.Comment

I bet you said the same for baldomir, oscar de la hoya... wtf ever..
Look, floyd mayweather is RETIRED! Get that moron? He will however come out of retirement for someone... The GREEN. Like all fighters he's no different. He could care less about what you think, he does care for what his fans think though, and his fans are behind that decision of him 100%.
Note that I am not putting Ricky Hatton on that list. I would consider Ricky Hatton at 147 an easy opponent for Mayweather. In fact, I ultimately think that Mayweather's next opponent will be Ricky Hatton, just a hunch.
I've given Mayweather 3 options, where if he fights just one of the 3 I will permanently shut up about him. Those are his three top contenders.Comment

When you talk as much as he does, you're going to contradict yourself and you're going to say things that upset people. I've come to expect it from him, but I judge him by his credentials in the ring, not his mouth. In that ring, he is one of the greatest of all time without a doubt.
Ali ran his mouth a lot too, but years later he is respected for it. At the time, many, many people hated him.
20 years from now, everyone will be in love with Floyd and pretend they were a fan "back in the day." It's just the way it is.Comment

Well I would be suprised if Williams gets through Margarito, and if he does then I have a feeling Arum would avoid Williams to be honest. Eventhough personally I think Miguel would wear him down, even if the difference in height is scary.Comment

I think it should go kind of like tournament style.
Shane-Mayweather fight
Williams/Margarito -Cotto
Then winner of fight one fights winner of fight two.
That's assuming that Floyd still wants to fight and if he did beat shane and still wanted to fight AND cotto beat the winner of Williams/Margarito then I think there would be huge demand for a Floyd-Cotto fight.Comment

Don't use G@yweather's name in the same sentence of the GOAT Muhammad Ali.
Ali's has 5 Fight's of the year:
1964: Muhammad Ali KO7 Sonny Liston, see Ali versus Liston
1971: Joe Frazier W15 Muhammad Ali (first fight), see Fight of the Century
1974: Muhammad Ali KO8 George Foreman, see The Rumble in the Jungle
1975: Muhammad Ali KO14 Joe Frazier (third fight), see Thrilla in Manila
1978: Leon Spinks W15 Muhammad Ali
20 years from now, people will still be watching Ali fights.
People today wont watch a Mayweather fight more than once.
Ali is named Fighter of the year 4 times in his career:
1972 Muhammad Ali/Carlos Monzon
1974 Muhammad Ali
1975 Muhammad Ali
1978 Muhammad Ali
========================================
Floyd Mayweather Jr. does not have a FOTY
Floyd Mayweather Jr is mentioned as Fighter of the year ONCE in 1998.
Roy Jones Jr. does not have a FOTY
Roy Jones, Jr. is mentioned as Fighter of the year ONCE in 1994.
=========================================
These little JUNIORS (JR's) claim they are all that but we know better.
=========================================
Floyd is better than Robbinson?
LMAO!
Floyd is better than Ray Leonard?
Floyd is better than Muhammad Ali?
In your ****ing dreams.
GET THE **** OUT OF HERE!
=========================================
FLOYD IS A FRAUD AND A LIAR!.
Did you notice that Muhammad Ali also has Fight of the Century
Floyd does not have any of these because he wont fight anyone.
Floyd Fights Bums and old men and claims he is the greatest.
He is a joke.Last edited by Alien_Tanks; 06-20-2007, 01:08 AM.Comment
