    Not after he knocks him out. All of a sudden, his last three fights become:

    KO Mayorga
    SD Mayweather
    KO Mayweather

    That looks pretty ****ing good.

      Actually, I'm convinced that the first fight was given a SD, to set up this fight... which will set up the third.

          A win over Floyd will only hurt Floyd. It will not make it seem as if "Oscar Is Back" Given the size and power disparity, Oscar will always have a punchers chance.

            Floyd's taking a dive... to set up a third fight.

                It won't hurt his bank account... what if he thinks he'll lose to Cotto anyway? Isn't this the better way to spend the next two years?

                  HE SC****D BY DLH HE DID NOT BEAT HIM CONVINCINGLY

                    How did you score the fight? I had it a pretty convincing 116-112.

                      How about u answer the initial question. Does it, or does it not hurt his legacy, and why? Saying that "he is doing it to set up a trilogy does not answer the question"
