is mayweather a protected fighter??

[tredh]

Well, with the extremely talented WW division, and with Floyd clammering on about unifying it, uh, maybe try fighting ONE of those fighters instead of dangling 12 mil in a JUNIOR WW's face to come up and fight him.

Isn't Hatton the same fighter everybody wanted PBF to fight before? So why is Hatton now all of a sudden not worthy? All that talent you talking about really just came about recently. A lot of fighter in the welter weight division just moved from prospect to contender. A lot times out of hate you guys are unreasonable with the **** you claim.

I personally feel PBF is going to win the fight. How easy depends really.

we wanted to see this fight at 140. hatton is not the same fighter at 147 and that is a fact. that is why hatton went back to 140 and he only came back to wetler for the money. mayweather wouldnt dare touch hatton at 140 because he knows he would get knocked out.

look at his resume. when he has he ever taken a risk?? he doesnt take a risk when making a fight and he doesnt take a risk in the ring. even against bums like baldomir he runs for 12 rounds. mayweather is a protected fighter.

baldomir's a bum? what belt you got? and to whoever called judah and gatti bums- you don't win world championships and undisputed world championships by being a bum.

this **** is getting ridiculous... has he been protected? of course. he's a goddamn prize fighter. damn near every ****ing fighter with a major belt has been protected to some degree. especially guys who came up with outstanding amateur careers. that's how the game works now. get over it.

Genaro Hernandez
Jose Luis Castillo
Jesus Chavez
Zab Judah
Oscar De La Hoya
DeMarcus Corley
Diego Corrales
Angel Manfredy

yup. also add the complete destruction of arturo gatti.

few if any active fighters in any weight division have that many named fighters on their resume.

Corrales, Castillo, Genaro (first title shot a year or two after turning pro), Cheves, N'dou (30 KOs), De La Hoya, I mean the list goes on and on which shows that you don't know what you're talking about and are simply trolling.

Cotto is the one who's protected. Look how many title defenses Floyd had by the time he was 31-0, compared to Cotto, including the quality of belts (the Ring and WBC as opposed to the WBO and WBA)..

Ok so explain to me then why Hatton declined the fight twice at 140? When they were both fighting at 140.

i say yes, he's a self protected fighter and all he does is discredit other fighters and then takes on lesser opponents. he's done it his whole career, with an exception of a fight here and there.

I wouldnt say as portected as much as Just having very carefully selected opponents

isnt that the same thing??

[rj_ct]

brah, seriously... get over it.

[Welter_Skelter]

isnt that the same thing??

On paper yes... But not quite.. One is about protecting a fighter.. and the other is about Swindleing the people with claims of Greatness.. By fighting guys with the NAME.. BUT NOT the skill set or style to beat him..
