Mayweather played this all out nicely

[VERDUGO]

He let all these top guys eliminate each other.

Now he will fight Pacquiao, and if he wins it will be like he also just beat Cotto without even beating Cotto.

Not the most courageous move, but smart none the less.

That's why Mayweather doesn't get respect.
He's a b!tch.

Yeah this was all apart of the evil Mayweathers plan, if he beats someone who beats everybody that means he beat all they beat too.....you have ****ty logic TC.

wow, you must be a psychic because it seems like you know for sure why he didn't fight those guys.

but seriously though, you really think cotto or margarito would have any chance against mayweather? and now that he might face pac who ****d the guy that mayweather was apparently scared of, he still won't get credit for beating pac because he didn't fight cotto or marg?

the point is, pbf is just way better than all those guys, so if you want to blame him for not fighting them for his own legacy or your entertainment purposes I could understand, but it just doesn't make sense to say that pbf is scared of anyone at 147.

very ****** IMO.

He could have beaten all these guys, and been lauded as an ATG the way Pacquiao is right now

riiiiiight, you would just say he ran away from all of them and potshot them to death.

PBF will always be remembered as a guy who ducked the toughest competiton even if he were to beat Pacquiao.

I can't state my opinion?

I'm sorry I thought that is what we did on this forum.

won't happen again

Actually he's left himself in a potentially pretty crap position. Manny can do what he likes. He can retire and not fight again if he wants. He's the man of the moment and he'll be loved whatever he does next.

If he chooses Mosley over Floyd, who's Floyd left with? There's no way he wants to fight Paul Williams.

Heck, if I was Manny and subjected to all that steroid **** by the Mayweathers, i'd say forget Floyd and leave him stuck in the hole he's dug himself.

mayweather is a genius!

let everyone fight each other in exciting , great fights so that people don't remember floyd's boring ass ones.

Then he fights Pacquiao.

and if he wins plenty of people will remember him

[^^Cody^^]

How is that smart...............he will be barely remembered when it comes to boxing.

One of the ******est quotes I can remember. Mayweather is already on ESPN's top 50 all time greats. Mayweather will be remembered as a 6 time world champion (assuming he does not win another) and he will be regarded as one of the best pure boxers of all time.
