Thats what the majority of people are saying though. Yes, we all agree Floyd Mayweather Jr. is an incredibly talented boxer. He had a great run at 130 and 135, but what hes done at 140 and above isn't that impressive considering who is out there to be beat. Most of us would like to see for a variety of reasons. To see Mayweathers skills on display against guys who pose stylistic matchups. To see if he can win against the best welters. Some people simply just want to see him lose. I'd prefer to see memorable fights and with his skills, he is able to do that. He just doesn't seem interested in fighting the dangerous guys. He has that right as it is his health, but you can't fool me into thinking hes the best fighter right now, or ever. I have to see it first. Could Mayweather beat those welters I listed? Of course, just as they could beat him.
Manny Pacquiao doesn't really leave any of the doubt that Mayweather does and thats the bottom line. He isn't as skillful, but he's far more memorable and it has nothing to do with their fighting styles, both of which I can appreciate.
