    This is false and has been disproven many times already.

    In the majority of Floyds fights,

    he was the bigger man.

Those are the only fights available that can generate the kind of money Floyd needs. We all Floyd is fighting again. We all know he needs/wants money. We all know he wants to be considered the best. So instead of Bitching, moaning, and whining. Chill out, and wait a couple months and see what fights unfold.

      P.S. The guy fights 40 fights, 2 in which his opponent was smaller than him. NOW EVERYONE is TIRED of HIM ALWAYS fighting SMALLER fighters
      O_O
      go figure
      Sounds exactly like 2006 again.


      btw, he has been the larger man in the majority of his fights.

        mayweather didnt even deserve to be in the ring with a warrior like marquez, it made me sick to see how this self-called entertainer overwhelmed an old and outweighed marquez.
        to me marquez is behind manny pacquiao P4P miles above mayweather.
        of course thats just my opinion, most people say this victory put mayweather back on top... well i guess mayweather lovers dont ask for much as long as their hero keeps fighting handpicked oponents.
        personally i dont care if mayweather retires for good (although in 2 years there´s the risk that ivan calderon challenges mayweather forcing him to come back from retirement and regain his P4P status).

        the truth is boxing doesnt need mayweather, boxing needs competitive fights and rivalries betwen good fighters like in the old days; marquez and pacquiao where doing okay, then again people should praise fighters like them... not bullies like mayweather, seriously man up and fight mosley or just retire.

          Floyd would embarrass both.
          Floyd would make all 4 of them easy work, if they fought 3 times a piece.
          Pacquiao would perform the worst...once Pac gets in the ring with a legit fighter, they will show how limited his so called skills are.

              I know, people lose sleep over wanting to see him lose so bad! He will fight Shane next because there is no way Arum is putting Pacquiao in the ring with him. Then all the blame is going to be on Mayweather.

                He fail to make weight and he was probably 15+ pounds heavier then MARQUEZ and thats why he didnt want to go on scale on fight night!
                The ******* you're sniffing must be cut with grammar school chalk...Floyd has never weighed close to 160...

                  The majority of his fights... .c'mon bro
                  When you say things like that it leads me believe that you're not a fan of boxing.
                  Logically, how would this make any sense? And don't go on boxing rec and pull up some weigh-in numbers from past fights. The fallacy there is that those numbers do not state the weight on the DAY of the fight in which the other fighters rehydrated to 10 pounds over the class limit. The man has moved up five weight classes. In moving up five weight classes you're telling me that he was the bigger man in majority of those fights?!? Have you seen any of floyd's fights besides his WW run? Seriously?

                    thats the worst excuse you can make to take away relevance on a fight against the true best welterweight.
                    mayweather has never fought anybody as challenging as shane mosley, everybody knows that

                      And he never will.

                      That's why he'll not be remembered as a great fighter.
