So much for Floyd not wanting to fight the best.

His 15,000,000 is tied into the PPV sales...live gate...etc....He's full of ****. This is nothing but a ploy.
He's not risking an extra payday against JMM and jumping right into a fight with Pacquiao, otherwise Pac vs Floyd would've been signed after Pac vs Hatton.
If he were someone like Sugar Ray Leonard who took a longer hiatus and came back and fought the champion, then I would'nt expect anything less...but again, we're talking about Floyd mayweather here.
Diaz-Marquez did 100k...on PPV.

Since 2005, Mayweather has "beaten down" the likes of Henry Bruseles, Gatti, Sharmba Mitchell and Hatton. You could argue he "beat down" Judah from round 5 on, but he hasn't shown the kind of style that would lead to a beat down of anyone with real boxing ability. Mosley, Pac, Cotto, and JMM all have that.Comment

I was sarcastic...besides can you argue that he makes it look easy?Since 2005, Mayweather has "beaten down" the likes of Henry Bruseles, Gatti, Sharmba Mitchell and Hatton.

Floyd's just mad that people are mocking him while everyone else is looking at Pacquiao as THAT dude right now. He's going to pull every trick in the book to swirve people over to believing Pac's a fraud and that he'd whip his ass, etc...but Pacquiao just keeps taking dudes out without making an excuses about who gets a bigger share, who's the best fighter, etc. Actions speak louder than words.
If Floyd was THAT dude, he would've taken Pacquiao immediately after the Hatton fight and set a Fall date. Both Floyd and Pacquiao have had 2 big PPV events, but Floyd deserves a bigger share than the #1 fighter in the world today? LOL...Floyd isn't bigger than the sport of Boxing (as proven recently). That fight should be 50-50 or loser takes 48 and winner takes 52 like how it used to be done.Comment

Sure, he does make it look easy, but that's the most frustrating thing about a fighter as talented as Mayweather. He has all-time great skills, but he employs such a cautious style that it robs the fans of truly great performances. If he consistently let his hands go like he did in the last three rounds of the Hatton fight, he would be the most popular fighter on the planet and he wouldn't have to resort the "bad guy" role. He could have forced an early stoppage of Baldomir if he wanted to press the issue, but instead he bored everyone to tears.
I think there's a good chance he stops JMM and looks great doing it, but I'm afraid we'll get a cautious Floyd content to coast to a 118-110 decision.Comment
