    What's with all the Mayweather talk?

    Okay, before all this Pac vs. Mayweather talk gets out of hand.

    First of all, Mayweather's been retired for what? 1 1/2 yeras now? Before he can fight Pacquiao, he has to fight Margarito first or Cotto or Williams?

    Anyways, my point is: Mayweather just can't step out of retirement and pick who he wants to fight because of the money. He has to give people what he owes them first.

    Trust me, if hypothetically speaking, Pacquiao were to fight Mayweather; Margarito's people would be pissed that they would have to miss out on a big payday.

      Stylistically I think Pacquiao is worse for Floyd. So, I personally wouldn't be pissed if Pacquiao and Floyd fought. Margarito is kind of one dimensional and predictable, his style is to come forward and to take punches to land one of his own..

          And who are u to dictate that?? Mayweather is a big dog, he's the jock, the most popular kid in school, he can come in and pick any cheerleader he wants while Cotto and Tony sit in class jealous.

          Is it fair? No. Is it reality? Yes

            Exactly. Margarito was always a dumb idea because stylistically Floyd wins a hundred rounds out of a hundred from him. Manny presents a bigger challenge.

            This is exactly what was needed to get Floyd's attention and motivate him.

              That's what i'm sayin. Mayweather doesn't care about fighting, he cares about the money. Mayweather is bad for boxing.

              Since he's retired, he surrendered the belt right? So if he comes back, then he's going to have to be re-ranked isn't he?

                Listen slowy, Who wouldn't want Mayweather's name on there resume? Who?! Manny has stated that he wants to fight Hatton/ Mayweather. Question is

                Is Mayweather interested...Mayweather owes no one nothing and he don't need a damn rank. He has accomplished alot and is still in his prime...

                PROBLEM

                Having to work with Arum

                That old piece of ****

                  mayweather doesn't owe anyone anything. mayweather owes marg and cotto fights just as much as roy jones owes lennox lewis a fight. mayweather has his legacy cemented and of course he can improve on it and I wish he would but he doesn't owe anyone anything.

                  and mayweather last fought exactly 1 year ago to the day.
