      I'm not a fan of Mayweather, but you'd have to be a complete idiot to come off a 20+ month layoff to fight Mosley. Real talk.

          He didn't have too, he could have fought any ww. Quintana and Collazo were free.

            lol Are you that ****in ******ed?

            Duran and Leonard were huge guys, they both had attributes to have success above their weight classes. Plus Leonard only went up 1 division. Duran went up 2 divisions. ****in Marquez went up to Welterweight when he spent the MAJORITY of his career at featherweight and only has had 2 fights at lightweight.....****** ass, do you know your history? lol Of course not, you're just talkin out of your ass...

              those guys were at least champ of their division before they fought those smaller guys moving up. floyd won't even fight the champ in his division. unless you still consider him champion emeritus cause of his victory over the great baldomir.

                  yeah... but the least floyd could've done was make 144 lbs to make the fight more fair.

                    Quintana or Collazo wouldn't bring in the kind of money Marquez would.

                      thats belt nonsense. mosley is the welter champ and everyone knows it(but floyd apparently)

                      if beating baldomir makes you the best we gotta about 40 guys with claim to the welterweight throne.
