    You and I both know that the fight would be more fair if it was staged at 135-140 don't we?
    Basically youre saying the fight only makes sense if you can place Floyd of 2000 and JMM of today together, too bad that cant happen, but you agreed the outcome would be the same, so it doesnt matter.

      Doesn't matter, JMM isn't even established at Jr WW. Lets stick to what it is, a tune up.

        I don't know how that proves that I haven't seen much of Floyd. I find that the outcome I sketched out to be a very real possibility. Maybe you think that Floyd goes in swinging and knocks JMM out in 2?

          Mosley has said in the interview that he wants to be P4P#1 fighter in
          the world again.

            yes he had, since he wanted no part of mosley and wanted a big payday on his return fight

            if it isn't true, name another big name with p4p status that would be willing to fight floyd on 147 AND that floyd would like to fight at 147

              hehe, ok, i'll ease up a little bit. I just can't ignore this mayweather does nothing wrong state of mind some times...

              Hey dominican, no war here, i'm done

                  what, you don't agree with this? do you think that he's a better fighter at 135?
                  I picked Juan Diaz to beat JMM, I was wrong but I knew that Juan Diaz had the style to trouble JMM and I was right. As for Casamayor, dude is very underated, he clearly didn't train for Cruz and I knew he'd trouble JMM.

                  Like NATAS said, maybe it isn't JMM moving up in weight, maybe age caught up with him.

                    Why would Mayweather be afraid to exchange against the smaller guy? He wen't toe to toe against Mitchell, Chop Chop, Gatti, Bruseles, Augustus, Zab Judah, Chavez, Ndou and he'd be afraid of Marquez?, be serious. Sounds to me, like a win over JMM shouldn't be discredited, in your book. You said it

                      man be real bro. u should be well aware that Mosley is looking for some good paychecks and call it quits. If he wanted the status he should be actively fighting. not looking specifically for pac, may and cotto (prize fighters)
