    And other than 5 times or less, he hasn't had to fight off the back foot in his last 3 fights. Why would he move backwards when he can stand right infront of his opponent and dominate them?

    If he were to be forced backwards by a fighter then you would see him move backwards and dominate his opposition.

    People think Mayweather has no choice but to move forward or stand still. It's bull****.

    He hasn't had to. Big difference.

    The last time he showed some slight of effective off the back foot fighting was against JMM in 2009, since then, he has looked his age and ineffectively moving backward in a straight line. He got caught by Ortiz when he tried to do his Sweet Pea-like duck under and slip away imitation as he has done against most other Southpaws he had fought.

      Completely disagree on every aspect of your response.

      Respect your opinion but agreeing to disagree is the only option here.

            Check my avatar. Once Cotto gives him the staredown he going to wish he never signed up because after May 5th that 0 will be no more.

              Most likely. As pretty much all FMJr. opponent do.

                I hope may vs cotto is'nt a scam!

                Because im in the belief that may vs ortiz was fixed,biggest BS ive ever seen,everyone in my family was disgusted.it's not a coincedence his fiance Ms Jackson bet a floyd ko in the 4th round when floyd is not known for a puncher.I dont think cotto will sell out.but i see him getting outboxed in route to 12 but i won't be surprised if floyd wins tko 10-11.if hes fighting pacd leftover he must put out a better performance.Not a hater just inbiased and tell it how it is. My thoughts on gamboa rios are i see rios tko win in 10 but i hope gamboa wins.

                  i dont see Cotto laying down. But you never know whats in a fighters mind either. As for Gamboa and Rios... i think and hope Gamboa wins! By KO!

                      I heard about the bet too. Look i wouldn't be surprised at all since floyd is a convicted criminal and a crimina is capable of anything - stealing, beating women, raping, killing. So a little fix is nothing in his book. But i really doubt Cotto would be down for it, you never know though. Dollars speak.
