Say Floyd beats Manny, does he Redeem the ducking issues?

[Butterball]

Floyd is supposed to be the No.1 welterweight... yet he has yet to defend that position against... well, a welterweight.

It's pretty straightforward, really.

[ACHlLLES]

He won't be able to beat Manny

The ******ity on these forums is amazing. What the hell will beating Cotto do for Mayweather legacy???? Pacman does more for Floyd than Any of these so called “top WW” would. Pernell Whitaker best win is over a Jr WW not real WW. Mayweather claimed to be the BEST OF HIS GENERATION, beating Pacman will secure that for sure

Well the Pacquiao fight is the fight that needs to happen, so no one can trash him for taking it

But it obviously doesn't undo the fact that he spent years at welterweight and didn't make the one fight everyone wants - the Cotto fight

If he beats Pacquiao and then beats Cotto I don't think anyone can have any complaints

This is the truth
