    The list goes on and on.
    Every fight you just named, they lost to a lesser skilled fighter or you picked fights where they there was a 25lb or more difference, Floyd/JMM be about the same weight at the weigh in.

      What is it about when two fighters are at the highest level in boxing yet one is bigger than the other?

Obviously Floyd is in the drivers seat so he should get the ball rolling. Not saying it doesn't take two to tango, but if Floyd calls for this fight there is a much better chance of it getting made than Cotto calling for it again..

        Agreed. Cotto wants a fight with Floyd.

        Floyds confusing me right about now, one minutes he's saying he wants Mosley the next he's saying he don't.

          that proves marquez's best weight is 130. i'm talking about marquez here, so if you wanna bring up pac, please quote someone who's actually mentioning him

So instead of Mayweather, who claims to be be the king of boxing, who claims to be a welterweight, go ahead and fight the top dogs of what's supposed to be HIS division, should just wait for people to call him out and he will fight them...because they disrespected him by calling him out...

            I imagine Floyd will fight Khan after this one since he called him out and Khan has a whole country behind him and is a great fighter; or at least u guys will believe that right? or do u need to wait for mayweather to tell u that?

              is that what your saying? Of course not because you give him
              full credit for them wins I'm sure. Most likely more than Floyd.
              There are always exceptions, but they are few and far between when you look at the big picture.

                If Floyd wins, he wont win on weight he'll win on skills.


                Plus i see this fight going at least 10 rounds, and im not counting out the full 12.

                  I agree. Possible a 10 to 12 round snoozer with two counterpunchers in the ring. One of them unable to hurt the other and the other refusing to take any chances.

                    it means ****. this P4P is not a fvking division. get that on ur head. P4P is fictional. or do u want to see Bhop vs Pacman for the P4P #1 status?

                      Maxim less skilled than Robinson
                      Pryor less skilled than Arguello

                      If it wasn't so late, er, early both Myself and Bat could go on and on with examples.
