By "some people" you do of course mean The Coalition and 80% of African American males who claim to be "fans" of the sport when in reality they only follow Floyd since he became a tough thug rapper persona. LMAO.

THATS why he got all the hate.
Pac's career is just peaking right now and the fighters out there are bigger challenges to him then Mayweather's options.
Hatton is bigger than him physically and just as fast as Pac.
The lightweight divisions is STACKED so there is no way he wouldn't be able to fight great competition such as Campbell, Casamayor, Diaz, Katsidis, JMM etc.
its just seems like Pac will be more accepted and actualy LOVED as the P4P#1 fighter than Mayweather and some people arent liking that.
You are essentially saying that when mayweather got p4p and held it that he fought 0 threats. Thus you are refuting those who thought oscar might win, Who thought Hattons pressure would overwhelm floyd (a thought that really gained steam after the tszyu win and mayweather was prepping for gatti) and your only legit claim would be Margarito and Cotto.
But since i know you have only been following the 130/135/140 division for likely only the last couple of years, and dont tell me have because i know you havent, the only legit threats that were really viable, mayweather fought them all EXCEPT, Tszyu, Freitas and Casamayor.
Why do you seriously act like mayweathers dissapointing run at welterweight is his whole career? You do this alot, and your arguments are getting more and more repetitive at the same time.
Name one fighter who wasnt ****ing 20 lbs heavier than him from 130 to 140 who was a threat to him that he didint fight or could have beaten him. Other than the ones i named whom wouldnt have beat him anywayLast edited by El Jesus; 07-03-2008, 09:56 AM.

Not really addressed to you but that is some **** I will never get it.Last edited by deevel79; 07-03-2008, 09:43 AM.

David Diaz is a champion, he wants to fight any boxers in 135 its just all of them

1. He's not the best fighter pound for pound.
2. Whoever holds that hypothetical title must indeed prove it every time or lose it. It's not a real title that you hold until you lose.
3. Only what you've done for the past year or two should ever count. "P4P" is not a career achievement award. That's why Roy, Holyfield, Toney, and Oscar don't top the list. (Exhibit A: A certain LHW who is 2-3 in his last five can't get near any such respectable list).

If you're gonna get props for bein the best you gotta fight the best. If Pac starts talkin **** about guys then not fightin em, or sayin so and so ain't a draw or whatever, he deserves to get flamed just like PBF did.
