problem with our sport when a fighter chooses the lw champ over the ww champ

Mosley's just bitter that he can't get a big fight.

however, he does have a point ... the best in the sport shouldn't be fighting someone weight classes lower then him.

That is because he isn't the best in this sport, he is a ****ing cherry-picker. I think Mosley would beat Mayweather, but I bet you Floyd wants the winner of Cotto/Pacquiao first.

Tell that to Hagler who fought SRL
Tell that to Joe Louis who Fought Billy Conn

He is wrong. Mayweather needed to shake the rust off. People need to understand Shane declined Mayweather's offer twice.

Mosley is completely, absolutely, no doubt about it right. Mayweather could have chosen some legit welterweight contender, won the exact same way by just as lopsided a margin, and gotten way more credit than he is. Instead, he pot shotted a completely out of his class lightweight for 12 rounds and tries to act like it was a legit fight.

Boxing deserves better from one of its best fighters.

Too add to this post...You can tell who the new boxing fans are...
because they always have no context of Precedence.

Floyd was the first and sure will not be the last.

Problem with your examples are all 4 of those fighters satisfied fight fans demands with intrigueing and challenging fights. Floyd hasn't. It ends there.

Mosley is right.

The biggest problem in boxing is promoters deliberately setting up non-competitive fights which are too one-sided and so not entertaining.

Mayweather hand-picked a smaller fighter so he would be certain to win.
