Why does Mayweather always have to have a tune up fight?

I'm not talkking about Mosley, that was a real fight. Marquez is no tune up if he fights at 130-135, but fighting at 144 he is a tune up for the top welterweight. And I don't even need to bring up the reasoning for Spadafora. the only people who think that is a legit fight are his fan boys.

I don't know if you know but Jmm vs PAC is going to be at ww.

If Clottey Marg and Shane ain't bull**** fights I don't know what is.

My point is it's the same ****. Both fighters are fighting fights they know they can win.

What he said. So again the hypocrisy on this site is laughable.

JMM and Pac won't even happen now I'm sure. If it does and that's at ww then that is some bs as well. Clottey marg and Shane are hardly as bs as taking tune up fights against way smaller fighters or no names. A lot of people thought Clottey beat Cotto before he fought Pac, Margarito was destroying everyone in between his close loss to P Will and his loss to shane and won his next fight after that. Mosley lost to the #2 p4p fighter and a guy in his same weight class and then had a draw against a runner Mora. I dont think either Marg or Shane should have got fights with Pac but they are definitely better opposition than fighting a guy that looks like a midget in the ring with you or a never has been, never will be anything fighter.

And how are you sure Jmm vs PAC ain't happening. Dudes said Mosley PAC want happening either.

Come on guy's tell it how it is..Mayweather has been at the top for a while, Hes had a lot of **** going on in the back ground "Mainly caused by himself"...But he doesn't want to jump straight into a top fight say Pac..I wouldn't would you?? If he is coming back and saying he wants a warm up fight then thats good by me I want him back as soon as. Have a warm up then get Pac on...Just my Opinion...I never rated Mayweather because he always runs round the ring" But must he has the most skill I have seen" but in the Mosley fight he traded and hes made a fan of me..Though Mosley is gettin on a bit he has power...He got involved so I aint say nothing...Until that changes I thinking hes alright

For the money and not to risk the 0 on his record is all I can guess.

mosley and marquez are tune ups for floyd but the best available fights for the #1 boxer in the sport. What is life like in delusion land?

Cuz Mayweather is afraid to fight. A true boxer is never afraid of his opponent. You give some you take some.

Mayweather is a lil b*tch.

Question is, what is it a tune up for?? Retirement again??

you all saying Clottey's fight was a B.S.? Clottey was top 5 Welterweight when Pac fought him and nobody really dominated the guy in a welterweight. Pac just made him look like a bum. Clottey is a counter puncher with great defense. i didnt know fighting a true welterweight in a welterweight division where no man ever dominated him was a B.S. fight.

by "tune up" he means an annual bank account tune up. Once a year he makes sure to put a few millions in his bank account and then back to hibernation.

You got it right there. After his tune up he goes back to his vacation while trashing Pacquaio.

When pressure to fight Pac mounts, he takes a tune up fight again then throws a monkey wrench to Pac/floyd bout and goes back to vacation...

Yup. you got it right.

People know what it is... don't take what some say on here seriously.
