The key to beating Mayweather is literally beat him up

[Piper the Great]

& this is why he wont fight somebody like shane or cotto. his work rate is to low to keep them off him. thats why he will continue to fight the fights he is fighting. like zab, floyd said it himself that he knew zab will fade. baldi was just way to slow. he knew oscar is known for fading. hatton is just to sloppy. if he fights on the ropes & try to counter shane or cotto he will get destroyed.
