    Mayweather 's possible next opponent!

    I have read two published reports( most recent from ESPN.com) that PBF could be in the ring as soon as this fall againist WBO Welterweight Champion Antonio Margarito. If this is true, IMO I believe Margarito will stop PBF. The only thing Floyd has in his favor is his speed and that Margarito is a slow starter. I stated that Margarito is a bigger version of Jose Luis Castillo with more boxing skill and power, you know the guy who beat PBF in his first fight at 135 (just the judges did not see it that way) The reason that if I were PFB, I would go after Zab instead this of guy, is that this guy is technically sound, has a chin, and get's get unbelievably stronger as the fight goes on (unlike the fighter at 140). I believe Margarito will stop PBF late. What do all you boxing fans think?

          Hopefully He fights Hatton. I dont want to here anymore about Mayweather fighting at 147. If Mayweather really wants to fight the best like he says than he should fight Hatton. He would also make the most money fighting Hatton. If he does not fight Hatton I would have to believe he is ducking him in fear of loosing. Mayweather's optimum weight class is 140 and 140 is the premiere division in boxing right now and Hatton is still Linear Champion.

              Floyd would have trouble with Chucky T, remember styles make fights.

                He would have trouble with Hatton because styles make fights. Arturo Gatti is a brawler but not really a pressure/ volume body puncher fighter like Hatton and Castillo are.

                  Whoa whoa whoa, cmon McKAy...dont you start rushing to jedgement here buddy. This is going to be a very difficult fight to make for a number of reasons so my advice to you would be to not jump to any immediate conclusions if this fight takes a while to be made...they are both most likely going to fight other opponents before they eventually square off against one another.

                  Again what do you think about Mayweather vs. Chucky T?

                    Why should Mayweather and Hatton be a hard fight to make. They are both in the same weight class at least and they respectively #1 and #2 in the division at 140. Ricky Hatton is Ring Magazine and Linear Heavyweight champ until somebody beats him. If Floyd wants to fight him, if Floyd wants to be champ. He should fight Hatton in Britain in a football stadium where they can sell 60,000 tickets hence make the most money. IF anybody were to make concessions on this fight if should be Mayweather because Hatton in the champion plus fighting in Britain is where they would make the most money. If Floyd wont fight Hatton in Britain he does not want to be champ and he is scared of Hatton .
