    Yes... it'a amazing alright. He waits until they are shot and old and then faces them when their workrate is poor and they gas easily.

      Margo was #1 ww under the ring champ and Cotto was udefeated ,prime and at WW and just beatin SSM.

      Floyd cherry picks. Period,

      Gatti wasnt th best at 140 either...

      lol... this guy haven't been watching boxing long hahaha your information is all screwed up, is that what SOME Pacman fans/Mayweather haters do they just make up their own information? Margarito approached Mayweather about a match but then he turned around and lost to relatively unknown Paul Williams (at the time) so that fight unfortunately never happened

      realistically, Margarito and Cotto styles wouldn't have a chance against Mayweather in his Prime and I don't think their styles can beat him now, if those guys was with someone other then Bob Arum then those fights would have happened

        That is a good point. People assume that Pac will do the same thing against Floyd that he has done against every other fighter. Its a lot easier to throw 7-8 punch combos if you are landing 5 of the 7 and your opponent land one or none in return. However, when 6 of those 7 punches miss and your opponent hits you with three in return, it changes your perspective.

              You have no clue what you are talking about. Mayweather tried to get fights with both Cotto and Hatton at 140, when he was still trying to make a name for himself. They both turned him down. Also Kostya Tyszu (since you probably weren't watching boxing then, he was the Ring champion at 140)chose to fight Hatton at 140 instead of Mayweather when Mayweather called him out. There was no cherrypicking going on. As for Margarito, considering what Mosley did to him, even you should know that he had no chance against Mayweather.

                i clearly said at the time pac fought them. at that time, mosely was better than cotto. he destroyed the man cotto got destroyed by, therefore, he was ranked higher and he was considered by most, if not all, to be the top ww. at the time pac fought cotto, ppl could argue roach cherrypicked cotto over mosely and they wouldnt be wrong.

                the point is i dnt beleiev in this whole cherrypickin **** cuz ppl like to apply it to fighters they dont like while their any amount of research or knowledge would show that most fighters, including your favorites (i.e. pac) do the same damn thing.

                  Arum was promoting Marg and Floyd and Floyd turned down the Margo fight....to fight Shotbay..then turned it down after he left Arum......

                  my info is 100%, son..

                  he makes excuses to suit whoever he doesnt want to fight...losses, etc...

                      Floyd does so well with his defense, his opponents get frustrated that their missing and begin looking for one shot. They being looking for one shot, and Floyd starts to pot shot and counter making his opponent even more frustrated and mentally defeated. You cant be afraid of missing when you fight Floyd. Your going to miss.

                      To beat Floyd you need to be mentally strong, and confident of your abilities for 12 rounds.
                      Floyd was injured in the first jlc fight, he fought 12 rounds with one arm, this is well documented in "soul of a champion" if you have seen that.
