      In your mind, is welterweight Floyd Mayweather, Jr's optimum weight?


      Thanks in advance for your honest response.
      No. But that is beside the point. If you are going to fight there and you're the best p4p fighter in the world, at least try to make the toughest fights in that division.

        The optimum weight bs doesn't fly with me. If it's not your optimum fighting weight, don't fight in the division.
        Fight in a smaller one. But if you're in the division and the champ, fight good comp who's there where you are.

          Floyd is a legend that died from all the hatred. All he offered was love in the form of boxing to all the minions. He was forced to walk away from the sport he loved, because many of those minions, could not grasp his genius.

          I too, feel isolated like Floyd. My game is different than his, but being the best DJ on the planet attracts such vile hatred.

            you see? who REALLY still talks about mayweather? who is it? who are the people making the threads? its the same people who keep saying **** like, "LOL MAYWEATHER STILL ON YOUR MIND HE RUNS THIS PLACE 24/7 LOLOLOL"

            Pavlik is losing respect for this ****. look around. people are unhappy. But Pavlik isnt the P4P BEST either. that label carries a certain unwritten responsibility that the previous GREATS exercised. Of course, a man can do whatever he wants, but he can also expect to be criticised for it.

              So, that same logic applies for everybody...right?

              Hatton was a highly rated p4p guy who chose to fight at welterweight. No excuses.

              And Kelly is a highly rated p4p guy, MW champ, who is NOT fighting the best guys in his division.

              You are a prime example of the double standard. And the motives are transparent.

                Good luck in your career homie. Don't want you to become the Vincent Van Gogh of the DJ world.

                  Agreed. Thus, no excuses for Hatton....right?


                  Jab was just making all kinds of excuses for hatton: "Oh, poor Ricky. He was fighting a whole seven pounds above where his career started ten years ago."

                    hatton is a hack. never been impressed. but i was VERY impressed in which the manner Floyd disposed of him. i actually like that fight very much.

                      No excuses for him either. He shoulda went back down after Collazo, truth be told.
                      I thought Collazo worked him, but others may disagree.
