    My, how quickly we forget.



    A runner doesn't fight off the ropes/ in the pocket like Mayweather does.
    If hes laying on the ropes, in the pocket, legs aren't really necessary if hes standing right there.

      I would say Margarito but people say it would be Mayweather - Baldomir 2.

      Funny that it's alright to say Mayweather would most likely beat the likes of Cotto, Marquez and fights are won in the ring and not on paper, but somehow Marge is the exclusion.

          I feel that, but if hes right there as you say, his legs being gone wouldn't really matter.

            you don't have to catch up to floyd.

            you just to have fast enough hands to get through his defense.



            people overestimate floyd's speed because he fights slow guys for the most part since jumping up in weight.

            mosley even at this stage and pacquiao can catch him.

              A slower Cotto outboxed Shane, Mayweather can do the same. Pacquiao can catch up to Floyd, because he has both hand speed and foot speed.

                Cotto was just as fast as Shane that night. and if he wasn't, he was just a tick slower.

                  that was a different shane though.

                  i think cotto-shane now might turn out different.





                  or maybe i still see shane as he was before......

                    No, all I'm saying is Mayweather can fight against the ropes, in the pocket, going backwards, doesn't matter. Doesn't mean he is a "runner", you still have to catch up to Floyd. A runner is more, Cory Spinks, I'd like to name someone else but I don't want to start ****.
