Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Mosley Trade Words Face To Face on HBO

How does Floyd say " I proved that I'm the best" hahahaha. Mosley will be the first top ww you have faced. You never fought Cotto, Margarito, Pwill, Berto or Pac. Your resume since your last Castillo fight (you lost the 1st fight) is ****ing embarassing. Can Floyd fans do me a favor and go on Boxrec and look at Floyd's opponents since the last Castillo fight. Don't think you will still think he is that great. It's pretty embarassing.

I notice that in the BOXREC roster, both in the World and the US Welterweight rankings, Shane Mosley is not mentioned .

World...#1 Manny P. #2 Floyd Mayweather.
U.S.A. #1 Floyd Mayweather, #2 Andre Berto.

Does anyone have an explanation??

Solly6, you are really pathetic dude. Now name the fighters that Pac avoided in his weight divisions.


Bradley
Alexander
Campbell
Mayweather
Mosley
Guzman
Marquez (A third fight)
I can go on and on! David Diaz was the weakest in his division. Need I say more?

There are 4 welterweights in your list, although Manny has only been a welterweight a short time. Also the others can be attributed to scheduling or other difficulties. The only one I'm not sure of is Guzman.

Don't forget that Manny P. is only a beefed up featherweight, or at most, a Jr. Lightweight.

there was no reason to fight Marquez a 3rd time, he beat him twice, and he isn't the best revenue producing opponent. Marquez turned down a big payday to fight that 3rd fight.

Sorry 2 Welterweights and 3 Jr. Welters.

Accuracy my friend Accuracy. The pefect example of that would be Mayweather vs de la hoya in that fight Oscar was much more active but it was Mayweather's accuracy that got him the win. It don't matter how active you are if you're landing half of what your opponent is landing you wont win!

good point, however, dlh faded terribly in the later rounds and that is where floyd primarily capitalized. not taking anything away from floyd, he made dlh work and wear down and then made good moves. i dont think shane will fade like that.
i understand your accuracy clause, however, in the pac fight look how much clottey blocked but still lost every round but 1 on most and my scorecard.
the first 7 rounds he wasnt getting beat, battered or blown out, he simply was inactive due to pacs work rate and footwork. i see shane doing the same except he has power to keep floyd from doing what he wants when he wants, and that is a boxers goal to winning a fight. make the guy fight your fight. i just dont see floyd pot shotting to a victory against shane. he is gonna have to step up like he did against jlc, and those were close fights, years ago, floyd isnt at that prime either anymore.

edgarg, First he had a chance to fight Shane Mosley and he turned it down to go after Cotto; and that was after Shane offered to fight him at a weight-draining catchweight of 142lbs. Secondly, he turned Floyd Money Mayweather after Floyd agreed to his demands of 10,000,000.00 a pound over the limt, glove sizes, ring size and when to come in the ring last. Floyd only had one request. And that was random drug tests; the same tests that Floyd and Shane will go through. Now who is the other welterweight on my list?

so do you mean those guys are better than hatton, ODLH, Cotto and Clottey?

those names mention will beat the hell out of pac...

[The Hate Giver]

floyd is a fake thug who would be ****d on a regular basis if he ever ended up in jail.

[oneiros1313]

Floyd isn't duckin or dodgin anybody. But the money has to be right.

Asking for the money or a split in the purse you know you won't get is the easiest way to duck a fighter while saying you tried to make the fight.

LMAO...so PACīs ODH, Hatton and JMM are also non worth wins....they are PACīs best wins what are you talking about?

[edgarg]

The only difference between Pac and JMM moving up is that Pac was able to keep speed and power and JMM wasn't. Pac continued to win while JMM unfortunately ran into Floyd and we all know how that went. Nobody was saying that Cotto was cherry picking when he fought Pac, so why say Floyd is when he fought JMM after a 2 year layoff. We all know it was a tune up fight.

Yes, obviously it was a tune up fight, but Mayweather has always said that he's in the gym every day. Not only that, JMM has been on the downslide, as well as being rather old for a lighter weight guy. After all, he's spent most of his career at featherweight, with 3 tough fights at Jr. Lightweight, and 2 at Lightweight, including a 2 year layoff. Even then, flabby and overweight as he was, he still only made 142 lbs.

The guy was on the verge of retirement.
