    That's very questionable.

    It would be a free HBO fight if it came out at all.

    No way people are buying a fight where Mayweather has little to no chance of losing.

    That's the reason the majority of people buy his fights.

    Malignaggi and Campbell have the mouth to hype a PPV fight and at least make it seem like they actually have a shot.

      The only smaller guy I'm aware of Mayweather ever fighting is Marquez. Hatton was not the smaller man, I dont care what anybody says about that.

        Yeah I heard something like that. I'd love to see a rematch.

          Dude can Mayweather please have his stay active fight in March or April, why you hating so much, as long as the man fights Mosley or god forbid Pacquiao by the end of the year whats the problem?????

            to answer your thread question....YES this fight will shut up everyone who complains about him fighting smaller fighters, but my point is that there are better "bigger men" floyd can choose from....

            cintron gets his ass beat, and i'll put ANYTHING on it.



            i'm with you on bradley and especially williams, who i think is the biggest money option floyd has for march....


            but cintron? naw dogg....
            He has to save both Mosley and PWill as viable options down the line...the PWill fight could turn out to be monster in 6 months to a year and if you think about it...He fights Cintron get 10 million, Fights Mosley next maybe 12-15 plus then sets up a monster fight with PWill especially if PWill beats up some of the other big boys.

              if he fights cintron and its being treated as a megafight so to speak, then no ill disagree with it. but i think floyd is just trying to stay busy and cintron is probably the perfect opponent for that..he has decent handspeed, puts combinations together well and has alot of power and is the bigger man. so yea he will make floyd work. but i see mayweather stopping him late

You guys cant seem to understand that no Welterweight will fight Paul Williams, just get over it...its not gonna happen..Floyd Mayweather Jr is not the only Welter doging paul williams....Paul said hed galdly fight pacquiao or mosley at 142...

                then the complaint was that he was picking on smaller guys in the Light Welter division, well then if he fights cintron, a fighter who has fought at middle weight, will it end all the BS about him picking smaller fighters?? probably not because most of you guys hate floyd but to real fans, what do you guys think??
                NO
                THey will just say if he can fight Cintron he should fight williams

                  Let's start by fighting someone in your weight class let alone a "tall" or "big" guy.

                    Cintron has ZERO chance of beating Floyd, I don't know why anybody would want to see this fight.

                    Pacquiao
                    Mosley

                    Those are the fights everybody wants to see.

                    I wouldn't mind seeing Marquez/Mayweather 2 with a fair catchweight either.

                    Fighting a guy like Cintron proves nothing and just puts another W on Mayweathers record. Don't forget how bad Cintron got rocked by Sergio Martinez - he's not legitimate contention for PBF!!

                      Yeah but Martinez is a bigger guy than Floyd and has more pop
                      lets not forget Kermit has a heavy hand and if he lands flush on Floyd he could send him to sleep
