Why do people think a pure boxer like Mayweather, can lose?

[JK1700]

Any fighter can lose. Also it's much easier to downplay Cotto's ability then to actually face him..

Blame Bob Arum for that. He had them both when they were champions at 140 and didnt make the fight? I wonder why? He knew what Floyd would do to Cotto and didnt want his best prospect to get ruined by a guy who was just about to leave him.

are you ******ed TS?

[puga]

floyd should've lost to jlc....he struggled vs a midegt in jesus chavez also.......that alone tells you he aint unbeatable ..

cotto lives too far away

Usually most BOXERS, always beat fighters.
Why do people say he was scared of cotto? Lmao that's an easy victory

Because the slick fighter, which is what you really mean, isn't the be-all and end all of styles either.


There are many styles that give Mayweather problems, a skilled pressure fighter gives Mayweather problems and an outside boxer who uses a jab gives him problems.

That isn't to say that he'll necessarily lose against every skilled pressure fighter and every outside fighter there ever was, but the styles are there to give him problems and everyone has the ability to lose. Mayweather is no exception.

manny would end floyds career

Lineal Welterweight Champion = Not a threat?
#1 Ranked Welterweight in Mosley = Not a threat?

*******s are so ****** it's absolutley astounding.

I didn't think that Mosley was ever a threat. Poeple overrated him to hell. Honestly he shouldn't be allowed to fight anymore. He was using steroids knowingly for a very long period of time.


He should be banned from the hall of fame.

Why didn't the fight take place later at WW?

So why havent any of them beaten Mayweather?

Skilled pressure fighter? Let's see, he beat : Diego Corrales, Carlos Hernandez, Jesus Chavez, Jose Luis Castillo, Zab Judah, Carlos Baldomir and Ricky Hatton. All of them fit the description yet he beat all of them. And only Castillo was able to win some rounds.

Outside boxer who uses the jab? Genaro Hernandez, Oscar De La Hoya, Juan Manuel Marquez and Shane Mosley. All of them fit the description. Yet somehow Mayweather dominated all of them. Only De La Hoya managed to win some rounds. The rest where one sided beatdowns.

Your theory doesnt make sense!

[FeFist]

he needs space to fight and time to think..manny wont give him either..mannys just gonna bust him up till he stops him

Actually he doesn't need space to fight on the inside Mayweather is better than Pacquiao.
