Say what you want about Mayweather's inactivity, but he fights P4P Elites

[mikemurni]

Say what you will about Mayweather's inactivity and the abilities of his opponents (I.E. Too small, Too Old, Too pale etc,.) but in his last three fights, he has fought P4P Elites.

Hatton - Top 10 P4P

Marquez - Top 5 P4P

Mosley - Top 5 P4P

Judging by that record, he is going right back to a Top 10 guy whenever he comes back.

That's only 3, Pac fought 6 fights with 2 fighters ranked at #3.

Barrera - #3 P4P
Marquez - #3 P4P
Morales 1 and 2 - Top 10 P4P
Cotto - Top 6 P4P
Hatton - P4P# 8

Plus he didnt ask the other to climb up 2 divisions to fight him. There was no WW ranked in the P4P list that was available in between the time he fought Clottey and Margarito...

Who gives a spit about who Mayweather has fought. The real issue is who he hasn't fought.

Cotto and Hatton werent top10 P4P when Pac fought them, they both have good records until they fight each other I dont think you can say one is better than the other.

i guess that separates pac against floyd...

floyd fights smaller men, forcing them to gain weight...
pac fights bigger men, forcing them to drain weight...

i can respect your P4P list, but mosley was the only thing he is in match in terms of their size.

pac's list of opponents recently are not that high in the p4p list... they are just some cotto and margarito, who we can argue, floyd can easily beat... but i guess floyd just really is not an active fighter

Blah,blah,blah,Hatton may have been in the top 10,along with Marquez,but neither were elite welterweights.How many elite welterweights have Floyd beaten??I'll answer,just 1 old 1.

Proof please because Hatton getting KO by Floyd followed by unimpressive fights before and after that fight I really doubt he was. Cotto had been destroyed by Margarito I know he probably cheated but still so I doubt he was in the top 8 either after only winning a tune up and beating Clottey.

You want proof of an imaginary list? Seriously, how can you guys laud Floyd's win over Hatton because he was a p4p ranked fighter, then not give similar credit for Pac fighting the same guy? He lost ONE fight to a guy that was ranked significantly higher on the p4p list, does that automatically mean he was never really any good?

"Cotto has fought quality opposition throughout his career and proved himself against the likes of Mosley, Judah and Quintana. He is now ranked 8th on the pound for pound list after winning a close decision to Joshua Clottey"
