    Would it still be cool for Floyd to fight him?

I could see if Shane looks super old and crappy against Berto but you shouldnt say that before the fight. I dont think Shane will look bad no matter what anywyas. If he loses then its because of Berto and I hope people realize that
      I am interested in the fight. But it would've been nice for it to happen right after Mosley beat Margarito. I'm just saying that it would lose clout if Mosley ended up losing to Berto and there would be no need for Floyd to fight him then.

        He puts all the pressure on Mosley to win his fight and gets people to start talking about the fight before they even signed the contract. He did the same thing with Marquez. Mayweather knows how to market himself.

        More people are going to be talking about Mosley vs. Mayweather than Pacquiao vs. Clottey. Remember about all the media hype Mayweather got when he announced his fight with Marquez before Manny's fight.
        ellerbe and haymon are smart as hell when it comes to floyds career...

          ok cool, but you almost made it sound like even now you arent that interested and the only thing that may change your mind is if he brutally beats Berto

                It's to the point now of where I don't know if I would be interested in a Mosley-Floyd fight without knowing how Mosley looks right now because he's been off for a year. If Mosley beats Berto, Mayweather 100% needs to fight him or else I just don't know what to say.

                    See its so funny because no one sees Floyd in that light. People think Mosley & Margarito have had long layoffs but by time Floyd's next fight comes around he will have only had 1 fight in 2 and a half years or 2 fights in 3 years. His name pops so much even in retirment that people dont even truly realize how inactive this cat has been. For him to fight someone like that in his next fight with all that inactivity shows how much of a beast he is to me. Like I told the Pac fans, could you imagine if the roles were reversed? What if Pac had 1 fight in 2 and a half years or 2 fights in 3 years and tried to fight an super active Floyd? He would get his ass tore up.

                    No one would give him any chance to win. The same even goes for Mosley or pretty much anyone in boxing. Floyd on the other hand is so good that people would favor him in every match and demand that he has to fight the elite right off the bat or he sucks. Margarito has been off for less than a year and he's going to fight Carson Jones in his 1st fight back and no one says anything. Floyds been more than twice as inactive and he has to fight the best of the best or he's a bum in everyone's eyes and he better win too

                      People can say Floyd is ducking certain fighters, but he knows how to handle his business outside the ring.
