HBO, GBP, Team Mayweather, just scrap the March date and fight the Mosley vs Berto winner in May.
Or fight Paul Williams in March, a win over Cintron means nothing be brings nothing to the table.Last edited by DE100; 01-14-2010, 11:15 PM.Comment

Cintron best win at WELTERWEIGHT is poss ndou, and he thinks he deserves a chance at arguably top #3 lb for lb in the world.he still needs to work himself WAAAAAY up the ladder to even get a whiff of the BIG fights.cintron is average -low risk at best , and extremely very low reward.can't hate the boy for trying to get the paper when u can, he knows he was almost left for dead recently so he knows the business. If it ever were to happen, UD, 119-109..Comment

You know though If I was Cintron I come out first round throwin bombs press him and go for it. Dude has nothin to lose cause if it goes deep Mayweather will give him a beating without risking too much in typical Floyd style.
Cintrons biggest problem is that he has slow feet. Floyd will pick him apart and turn him in circles till he pukes!Comment

What gets me is the double standard that continuously seems to be showcased on this site & others in regards to the sports lb for lb best in mayweather & pacquiauo. Let's take a look at the list of future hall of famers listed above. We can automatically omit marquez, de la hoya & hatton who floyd has already faced & beaten as well. I take nothing away from barrera, morales or cotto, but morales was a shell of his former self b/c of his 'all action' fighting style and perhaps cotto had lost a step or two prior to his fight w/ pac which is neither here or there b/c they all were elite fighters at one time. Mayweather faced very good opposition at 130 & 135. Has he faced 147's BEST as of yet?? NO, but he made an offer to fight mosely already & shane publicly declined following his 2nd win against vargas. He also made an offer to Cotto during his 140lb days but Cotto's camp declined. (Do you people have amnesia??) What gets me is when folks say floyd handpicks or "ducks" other fighters when team pac does the same -ish (Do you honestly feel david diaz was 135's best??..Hell marquez faced & beat much tougher comp at 135 in the same time frame). Even cotto was handpicked b/c he obv wasnt the same fighter based on his past few performances. Shane seemed like he was willing to sell his right nutt for a bout w/ either floyd or pac but neither man has faced him yet and what ww had a better '09 than him?? Pacquiauo publicly admitted that he wouldn't move up to face foreman cause he was "too tall" so you know he's not facing williams but his blindsided supporters neglect to say he's duckin' anybody. Both fighters have Mar 13th dates & I bet you mayweather fights mosely (provided he beats berto) before manny does OR they'll get a fight done against each other. Like I said before, every bankable fighter in boxing nowadays handpicks fights at one pt or another.Last edited by Hitman88; 01-14-2010, 11:52 PM.Comment

I agree. the only guy that can maybe compete with pac clottey for the 13th would be floyd pwill. i still think the pac fight would be bigger cause pwill is not that big of a name yet. floyd won't fight mar 13. this all started as a bluff by gbp but im not sure if scaefer new that arum can easily do his own ppv. i am not a floyd fan at all but the one thing i will say to his credit is that he has made millions of dollars by being very smart in picking the right fights. fighting on mar 13 would be a disastrous business decision. PAC just beat you in ppv and fight hype pretty badly if he does it in consecutive fights you are losing your bargaining power for a potential fight down the road against pac or the winner of berto mosley. unless floyd plans to never fight any of the top guys and is just trying to make some money (which could definitely be the case) he will fight p will or mosley berto winner.Comment

WHAT? actually you can throw out oscar because he was done when both fought him.
a) pac fought hatton at 140 his championship weight where he fought all but two fights, one being to floyd at 147. pac absolutely demolished hatton, floyd beat him well too but hatton one a couple of rounds against floyd and it was a knockout later in the fight.
b) pac fought marquez twice at superfeather 130 where he was a p4p fighter.
floyd fought marquez AT 144 BUT THEN DIDN'T MAKE WEIGHT BY TWO POUNDS AND FOUGHT HIM AT 146. NOT THE SAME AT ALL. MARQUEZ LOOKED SO MUCH SMALLER IT WAS EMBARASSING.
c) Pac fought cotto and destroyed him. floyd didn't want to fight cotto at 147 because he was from puerto rico or something.
d) I KNOW EVERYONE ON HERE LOVES MOSLEY. PAC HAD A WAY BETTER WW YEAR THAN MOSLEY. mosleys win was good but that was not margartio in there. MIGHT HAVE HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH BEING CAUGHT WITH PLASTER BEFORE THE FIGHT.
e) COTTO BEAT MOSLEY AND PAC DESTROYED COTTO.
f) I cant go on this is ridiculous. but floyd SAYING HE WANTED TO FIGHT GUYS DOESN'T COUNT AS FIGHTING THEM. SORRY YOU ACTUALLY GOT TO FIGHT THEM.Comment
