    Floyd can't goto 154?

    Actually if Floyd - Mosley does 1.5.. and the fight is competitive at all, they might do a rematch even IF Floyd wins, just for the money.

    I know Mosley would.
    Pacquiao being the 140lb champion still would fight bradley or alexander in the proper weightclass. Mayweather would not be able to fight either at 147 without taking an extreme amount of criticism.

    And it's not that floyd "cant" go to 154. It's that there is no "money" fight for him anywhere. Not at 140, not at 147, not at 154. After Mosley if he fights anyone else but Pacquiao it would be the abandoment of his "money" image and a complete contradiction to his "pacquiao dont wanna take a 40million dollar drug test" statements.

      He just fought Marquez the LIGHTWEIGHT champion.. and already fought Hatton at 147, the LIGHT WELTERWEIGHT Champ... I doubt he cares about criticism.

      And not necessarily... Mayweather brings his own numbers now, he will do 800k - 1 million on his own... and against lesser known fighters he can demand 85% of the purse.

      He will make his money regardless.

        All that bull**** is banter. Remember when neither of them said they would accept 50-50? We will see when the fight is made.

          Fair enough points i suppose. But i think even the most devoted of his stans would revolt if he fought anyone else but Pacquiao after Mosley.

              NOT!!!!!!!!!!! If Floyd holds on to his principles then I can care less if he fights Pacquiao next especially if Pacquiao is not willing to take the test. There will be no revolt because I know Floyd would outbox Manny and show him why the sport is called boxing not brawling
