I think people will fall in love with him on 24/7 when they hear the way he talks, see that he fears nothing, has the body of a greek god, and just looks like he could kill someone. I think people would beleive that he could beat Floyd and I think alot of media people would boost it up and think that Clottey could give him hell. I think that would make the fight sell well or atleast solidly. Also, there is no way that everyone on here wouldnt buy it as the fight got close. Seriously think about it for a second. Floyd in the ring with Clottey? Floyd could lose. You have to buy that fight
    you think floyd/clottey does better numbers than floyd/mosley????

      Makavelli why would anybody race a Nascar and only keep in the first gear?
      the point is, you dont race something valuable against a piece of **** .

Then you have the one criticism about Clottey is his output and that you can outwork him but most probably feel that Floyd wont outwork anyone. He has the size advantage and he can box or brawl. He's also probably the best techniqal fighter Floyd has faced in a long time who is his own size or bigger
        All Mayweather would have to do is wait for Clottey to open up (Which he will due to size) and Mayweather can get off. Mayweather can also turn his glove, so that he could get the straight right hand threw the guard. I've seen MUCH faster guys who couldn't hit Mayweather, Clottey won't catch up, neither will Clottey's power be a factor. Clottey isn't a hard puncher, so Mayweather will let his hands go.

          why would floyd, with that abundance of talent, only throw one shot at a time...think outside the box horus....floyd's fighting style has become the equivalent of a Nascar ride racing at the local track in first gear

            Thats not completely true. I always say that I do beleive that Floyd was worried about fighting Margarito & Cotto because of there size & style but has never feared Mosley. I truly beleive that he has always wanted a Mosley fight and I could also see Cotto giving Floyd way more problems than Mosley. However, Ive said it a million times and Ill say it again. I do not at all like the thought of Floyd going from a little weak JMM straight to a strong fast beast like Mosley without fighting a Berto, Collazo, or Clottey 1st. The same goes for Cotto. I just dont like Floyd coming off of 2 years, fighting a small guy, and going straight to a guy who has MW type strength. Sure Floyd could win but I could also see him losing under those circumstances. HOwever, if he fights one of those other guys 1st then I think he kills Shane because his body will be fully adjusted and it wont be a shock to his system.

            Pac is the x factor. I definatly wouldnt be upset if he fought Pac next and went straight to Mosley but I honestly still may feel more comfortable with him fighting one of those other WW's after the Pac fight and then Mosley. It just sucks that its hard for all this to happened because of Shane's age. His age means you need to make the fight quickly. Keep in mind that I also say that Berto may beat Shane or give him mad fits. I think his style and skill is a bad matchup for Shane but if he gave people trouble then everyone would say that Shane is washed up when really I think Berto just matches up well with him anyways
            Well you might get that because Floyd Sr said Mayweather is looking to fight somewhere around December and I'm now hearing early 2010. Very possible that he will take a keep busy fight and rightfully so because he could possibly be waiting on something that isn't gonna happen, that being him vs. Cotto/ Pacquiao.

              Floyd can throw 1 punch at a time..
              the same reason kobe can go a entire first half shoting only 3 shots...

              Because he can.

              Floyd can take over a fight anytime he wants too..
              Floyd is an cold dude..He is a real ******* when it comes to fighting...

              He carries his opponents...and instead of knocking them out
              he slowly beats them up..
              Physically and Mentally

              He would rather his opponent mentally or physically quit... rather than for him just to put his opponent out of their misery by knocking them out.....


              he really does beats his opponents mentally as well as physically...
              thats why he fights the way he does.

              Juan Marquez will never be the same
              Ricky Hatton was never the same
              the list goes on and on...

              Floyd fights like an heartless *******.
              He is the type to take 3 bites to eat a chip...while he knows everybody else is starving...
