    Why would you not want to see JMM-PBF?
    It would be a good fight but what does Floyd gain from it besides hate? If he wins "But, but, JMM was smaller than Floyd" is what would come out of their mouths.

        Size really doesn't matter in this fight because Floyd never has been a very physical fighter.
        but manny doesnt have floyds defense. Floyd has quick hands and is fast on his feet and also with the shoulder roll blocks a majority of the punches coming his way. It's so hard to catch him flush with a really good shot because of that defense.

          pacman is still the better of the 2 he possesses quicker hands and harder punches

            As for what he gains, how about sealing a legacy? Coming back to tuneup against the #2 p4p before fighting the #1 p4p….then fighting Cotto…3 fights, win or lose, can’t say squat….if he goes 3-0, ****, I just might start a Floyd-Is-God group on boxingscene

              If they hate then let them hate and watch the money pile up. Floyd would Ko JMM. If Diaz did that to JMM imagine what Mayweather will do to him.

                I'd like to see JMM vs Mayweather, it'd be a good tune up fight for Floyd and it'd quickly jump him into the P4P list

                  Seriously i hope Mayweather stays retired, He cant win really...if he fight JMM then he is fighting the "smaller" man, If he doesnt then his "Ducking" him.

                    I'd like to see Mayweather vs a good tune up, JMM would do, Pac, winner of Cotto vs Shane II and then retire...or F it and hit it off to 160 against Pavlik

                      nothing is wrong with mayweather fighting jmm... it is just that mayweather to really test his assumption that he is GOAT, should fight the best welterweights out there, the ones in his own backyard... hatton, marquez and pacquiao though P4P mainstays, does not belong in his last division... smaller and lighter these guys than him... williams, margarito, cotto and mosley will be much, much tougher tests...
