Now if you're asking me whether or not I respect Pacs' accomplishments, then the answer is yes. In a very short time span he has moved up in weight and done some amazing things, which have spurred May fans to question how he got to that point without the use of PEDs. If you think he hasn't accomplished that much, then why not have your boy Mayweather fight him without all the extra tests? A guy who hasn't accomplished much certainly doesn't warrant extra testing right?
He has been at welterweight for only a year and a few days and has fought Cotto and Clottey, naturally bigger men. Floyd has been there since 2005 and hasn't fought anyone at "welterweight" of any substance. Baldomir is a great story about a guy with limited talent who overachieved and is now a sparring partner for hire. Judah is an underachiever who is now being promoted by the same company that promotes local circus events, what am I missing here?Last edited by switchsouthpaw; 04-13-2010, 06:01 PM.

I really can't see Floyd Mayweather Jr. down 5 rounds to 0 to Shane Mosley. Shane better get them Nike free's on because he's gonna be chasing Floyd all night all. Floyd won't give Shane a rematch which is a buster move.

Originally posted by One more round View PostThis fight is also a good matchup between two very knowledgable cornermen. Roger talks **** and has said some bizzare things but the guy knows boxing in and out and is a good trainer. And ****m is clearly a very smart trainer and is sharp mentally.

Originally posted by Tweezy316 View PostWhy does everyone who talks about how Floyd has been at welterweight since 2005 fail to mention the fact that he was retired for 2 years and had a fight with oscar de la hoya at 154? I expect that kinda talk out of Pac fans who have been watching boxing for 2 years but you said 25 years so I expect more.

Originally posted by switchsouthpaw View PostBecause no one retires from anything at 30, they take a vacation. Ok subtract the two years (vacation), who is the best name at welterweight that Floyd has on his resume?

Originally posted by Tweezy316 View PostYou keep asking everyone this question and it makes no sense. Just cause Floyd hasn't fought someone doesn't mean he can't beat them. When Floyd fought Gatti I saw Hatton and Cotto there and they wanted no part of that. Floyd is a beast and you'll have no choice but to respect him after May 1st!!

Originally posted by One more round View PostFloyd is one of the mentally strongest fighters there is. Castillo had him in a tough spot in their first fight and Floyd pulled through. Shane beating Floyd might not be out of the question, but Floyd giving up? Don't see it happening.
BTW I think Floyd's movement and skills will overcome Shane. Shane has never had an easy time with good boxers and nearing age 40 it won't be getting any easier, especially when the best in the business is opposite the ring.
He's BEEN THERE DONE THAT!!!
