Kirkland vs Mayweather who wins
Collapse
-
I am not sold on the whole Mayweather wins easily especially at 154, The way I see it, we havent seen the 34 year old Mayweather go deep into the late rounds of a fight and he hasnt gone into the later rounds against a young fighter in years, the Ortiz fight ended early, had it gone into the middle or late rounds who knows.
What we all agree on is Floyd is starting to slow down a bit and is a bit more hittable now, and Ortiz was making Floyd miss quite a bit, I honestly think when you look at the welterweight picture right now there isnt a fighter outside of Pacquiao that makes sense for Floyd to face.
at 154 there is the winner of Cotto Margarito, Canelo and Kirkland and Kirkland actually presents the most exciting match out of all of them. if not Pacquiao I think this is the fight I would rather see over a fight with Khan to be honest. and I dont think its an easy fight for Mayweather not at nearly 35Comment

bcus its a terrible matchup, kirkland is still up and coming and nowhere near floyds level.
kirkland never even been a beltholder much less in the p4p discussion, meanwhile floyd not only won tons of belts but been a p4p entrant for over 10 years.
even ann wolfe said they dont want martinez yet bcuz he aint ready so how is he gon be ready for floyd? angulo is a very good fighter but floyd is a couple of levels above that not to mention completely different fighter stylisticly.
who has kirkland fought that has any of floyds qualities? i mean i know theres nobody there with all his qualities but has james fought anyone who carries even one of the strenghts that makes floyd such a great fighter? i dont think so. meanwhile power, size and aggression alone dont mean **** if you dont have the skills and fighting IQ to use it. what world class technician has he shown he can get to in orfer to prove he can get his hands on the sinlge best defensive fighter of this era?
and let me just say i like kirkland and dont particulary like mayweather but have some common sense ffs.Comment
