    Well said man.

      I wasn't a member at that time Reign. And for the record, I was still a big fan of Mr boat buyer at that time, and I did not wanna see that fight. I wanted him to defend the WW crown.

          Real talk Reign. He retired as the WW champ. SSM is the closest thing to that right now. He needs to fight him before he gets any older. As of now, SSM is past prime, but still elite. The 'he was old' excuse wouldn't be valid. Ideally he woulda came back for this fight, but now SSM gotta get past Clottey.

                  Then I guess he isn't an elite WW.

                    I was never against Floyd/DLh because that was the fight floyd was angling for his whole career. but now that he got it, its time to make fights that we wanna watch.

                      Mayweather should have started off by facing Shane Mosely, Pacquiao or Cotto. Perfect opponents coming off a 2 year layoff.
