    Just keep in mind how Corely touched his chin well, and then keep in mind how much more power Judah has than corely, and how much quicker his power hand is than Corely's, who has decent power, but isn't known as a puncher. The only way you can be that confident is to be blind.



    that's the point of this thread. the only reason I said black is because the best fighters in the world are black. there isn't some armenian guy who can dodge shots in nanoseconds and hit people with hooks coming in like mw...the only other person on his level that's left is judah..that's the name in my head..that should be the name in everyone elses. judah, not hatton. judah.



    Someone with an ego so big shouldn't have to hand pick every single opponent. Clearly if he honestly thought he was such a bad mother****er, like Winky Wright knows himself to be, he wouldn't have to hand pick his opponents. No, he would have OPPONENTS RUNNING FROM HIM LIKE WINKY'S DO!
    you should also keep in mind that the corley fight was his first fight at 140, and look what he was able to do in his second fight.
    mosley and harris??
    that has to be a joke?

      Geez, if you're gonna hate on Floyd, at least do it honestly and don't make up bogus BS.
      Nah, I don't keep up with the Mayweather family happenings, Tom Cruises new girlfriend, and Michael Jacksons lawsuit. The fact is, whether or not he talks to his dad, the point I was trying to make is that he picks his own fights. I just threw dad in there to make it sound good, his dad doesn't have **** to do with it.

      English crits you for 5000 damage. Don't do that no more?

        Everyone ranks Floyd #1 on p4p lists, and quite honestly it confuses me, mainly because he hasn't fought anyone he knew he couldn't beat. Meaning, he has never walked into a fight not knowing whether or not he would win, or lose, because the opponent was hand picked by his father. Yes, that's right.

        I think Mayweather is afraid of the other top black fighters. Check out his resume. You don't see many black fighters on there.. and the black fighters he does fight are nowhere near the top fighters. Oh, a shot Mitchell..big deal.. Corely? Don't even get me started, although I respect him, you just know they picked Corely for 1 reason and 1 reason only: Because they knew MW had a 80% chance of beating him, and even then Corely got some good shots in and had MW dazed! What?? The king of the jungle, #1 p4p king was dazed, by someone who isn't even considered a puncher?

        The wins over Castillo show that he knows how to avoid and tap a guy who fights best on the inside. Also another two easy hand picked wins, the camp knew Castillo wouldn't be a problem because of the way Mayweather can roll out and punch, man castillo was cake. As much as I respect castillo, he's a 2 dimensional fighter, meaning he only knows how to do 2 things: fight up close with hooks and uppercuts, or take a ****load of punishment, and fight up close with hooks and uppercuts anyway.

        Don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying he doesn't belong in the top 5. I'm just saying Winky belongs in front of him, because winky doesn't choose who he fights like a little *****.

        Take a look at it this way: Winky's problem is finding people to ****ing fight him. Floyd's problem is how to make larry think he isn't lying when he says he wants to fight the best, yet ups the stakes on all the big names. Just logon to boxrec right now and take a look at Mayweather's resume and tell me it's risky, if you do I'll immediately know you're either a knownothing or a liar! His resume is clearly nothing more than a bunch of handpicked opponents with nice records, who themselves were fed a bunch of bums to get that nice undefeated record. He hasn't faced a world class fight ON HIS LEVEL, like Judah is. he hasn't faced a ferocious puncher AT HIS WEIGHT CLASS, like Judah is. he's a ****ing stunt and you little punks who nuthug him need to wake the **** up and realize your boy is #3, behind #1- winky, and #2 hopkins.

        Stop crying and whinning boy, put up your own boxing body so that you can declare your own p4p rankings.

        You think you know better that everybody, PUNK ASS?

          Kelly is OLD. None of the fighters you listed are top notch fighters to be honest.

            I think u undersell Castillos capabilites in ur post. Castillo got robbed in the first and the second fight was close.

            I think floyd did great at 130 and 135, lately though hes just been wanting to fight DLH and the rest of the OLD fighters. Which s funny cus the Old fighters also just wanna fight each other. He's been at 140 for a while now and he has yet to establish his dominance there.

            I agree that he shouldnt be at #1 cus he hasnt done much in a long while, but when u look at the meaning of p4p best fighters in the world list its hard arguing that he doesnt belong in the number 1 spot.

            Also Winky isnt any better. And he definitely hasnt earned to be above floyd in the p4p rankings.

              ===========Did you ever think to wake up and smell the ****ing Folgers? Kevin Kelley, Mosely, V Harris, Nate Campbell, Witter...you a clueless mofo.===================

              Can't smell a thing with you stinkin' up the boards. Kelley mostly fought as a featherweight and has always been behind Floyd. Mosely has always been over Floyd. Witter is a British fighter who rarely fights here. Floyd has only been in Harris' division for a couple of years. Campbell had some overlap, but he's 2 divisions down now.

              Go find the knitting board or the face painting board. You've been busted!

                I'm a Castillo fan and that was my impression from his posts. But in terms of natural ability, speed, reflexes and maybe power (Castillos fighting at a weight class he's naturally much bigger than) Castillo can't hold a candle to Mayweather. It wasn't his abilities that was effective against Mayweather, it was his constant pressure and body size that made those fights controversial.

                Slipx, wants Floyd to fight a fighter near the talent level and with near the natural abilities of Floyd.

                There just aren't too many near him with his skills/physical attributes and Judah's the closest.

                  old..but dangerous enough for mw to duck nonetheless imo.
                  since when does old always count a guy out anyway? what about foreman? or hopkins, for that matter.. old, but dangerous.

                      nate campbell isnt in floyds division, kelley sucks, harris is garbage, mosley is a shadow of his former self and witter is decent.
                      floyd would get ripped apart for taking ANY of these fights
