    and see everyone wants to question how great floyd is. And comments like these show y he is not great. Mosley is the best fight mayweather can make rite now. The money well be great the fight will have great hype but for some reason floyd does not want to fight this man. He'll rather fight Hatton and make a low 5 million than fight mosley which would guarantee him at least 10 million. I question this guy Floyd is he scared?????????

      No other fighters are running around claiming to be the best boxer to ever lace up a pair of gloves. Floyd claims he has accomplished EVERYTHING there is to accomplish in the sport, but has he really? He hasnt defended his titles at 140,147, and will not do so at 154. Floyd is the only boxer running around claiming that nobody is worthy to get in the ring with him. What kind of **** is that?? When your claiming to be the #1pfp fighter in the world, people hold u to a higher standard. Fighting semi-retired boxers/promoters isnt gonna cut it.

        Mosley blew it by not riding the wave of popularity he had after beating Vargas. He was never a big draw (see Collazo fight) and now that the Vargas win has worn off, he's not gonna pull big numbers no matter who he fights. He needs to beat Cotto then a Mayweather fight would be huge.

          Mosley is not a big money maker. Didn't he only make a couple million in his last fight? And what does it matter that he's a big name? Everytime Floyd fights a big name, you bash him for not "fighting the best". People criticize him for fighting DLH (biggest name out there), and guys like Judah instead of an unknown like Margarito, so what would be different here? You guys look for any and every reason to talk **** about Floyd.

            You can't be serious. Hatton-Mayweather will make 2X as much as Mosley-Mayweather.

              Most fighters do believe they are the best. Nothing wrong with great confidence in yourself. Winning 5 titles in 5 different weightclasses is a great accomplishment. He's only 30. There is nobody Floyd needs to fight at 154. Floyd isn't into defending titles he's into winning titles in different weightclasses. Floyd would beat any of the guys in his division at 140. Then if he stayed at one weightclass and cleaned out the division people would say OH he fought bums and never moved up. He's not claiming to be the best HE IS. Anyone with eyes would tell you that. And many people here picked Oscar to win so don't say he had no chance. While Cotto was beating on Floyd's leftovers.

                **** Mosley he missed his chance.
                154lbs but he only went as high as 148....1 pound over the welterweight limit, is really not much of a difference

                  He weighed in at 150. Its exactly what Floyd said a welterweight beat a Jr. Middleweight. There is no big name at 154 for Floyd to fight. All I can think of is Ouma and Spinks. People didn't want to see Spinks-Mayweather when they were talking of the idea, and I don't know what Ouma is doing now.

                    floyd is gunna make 2x the money with a hatton fight than a mosley fight at this point in time...after he beats hatton hes going wait until mosley beats cotto to fight him because hes going to get a better payday and overall be a much bigger fight if that happens...why would he fight mosley now and get less money and let hatton go off with de la hoya doesnt make sense....

                      yeah
                      useing his head and size, Hopkins is a dirty fight yes it a win but wasnt to impressive with his wins. Who did Hopkins win so special some middleweight contenders and blown up WW.
