Mayweather's career plan: Floy is going to do a Roy

[Super_Lightweight]

hmm

Floyd's gonna be like Roy? Damn...he must be that good then.

Roy didn't duck anyone. He was a Ring champ for years at light heavyweight. Some fights don't get made in boxing, but that doesn't fall squarely on Roy's shoulders.

Floyd on the other hand, is NOT Ring champ at 140 or 147, and until he does accomplish that or something similar then he is not in Roy's league. He's also still young and in my eyes has a loss in his prime to Castillo. But, Floyd has plenty of time to get the high status that some seem willing to garnish him with already. It's too early to say Floyd is a waste. Other greats have had stale periods in their careers. We just need to wait and see.

Did you see my reference to you, S_L? I was saying you'd come on and talk about Floyd's chin being granite. Just playin' with you, brother.

I think we'll just have to agree to disagree, mate. I feel confident that if I ran a poll on here asking what fight people would rather see (omitting Winky Wright because I really DON'T think Floyd would EVER step that far out of his safety zone, I really don't) then I think at least 8 out of 10 would want to see Hatton.

It's all very well saying "yeah, but he probably would have beaten Hatton and Cotto anyway..." That's what people say to justify Roy's "career".

I respect your opinion on the matter. Don't get me wrong I would still love to see the fight. I do want to see what Hatton can do against speed because I have yet to see him fight someone who has it. I know deep down though that Cotto gets destroyed, I don't care what anyone says. Hatton also destroys Cotto, Castillo, Corrales, Gatti. Because they would all have to fight his fight and they would all get beat to death doing it. So the only option remains Mayweather for a real dangerous fight for Hatton. So I would love to see it.

lol

LOL...Floyd has a good chin though I think. But...anyone can get KO'd. Floyd could be stopped by Hatton just from pure exhaustion. We'll just have to see. And make no mistake about it, I definitely think Floyd's career will be missing something if he does not defeat Hatton.

hmm

There's no way on God's green Earth that Hatton would destroy Castillo. He might Cotto, because Cotto has a questionable chin and drinking problem. He might Corrales, because Corrales has already been destroyed by Castillo.

But Castillo is a man's man and he don't play that ****. A fight vs Hatton would be brutal but niether man would be wiped out. It would be quite competitive.

Castillo will last longer than the others no doubt about that. But he will quit on his stool. I just dont think he has what it takes to last against Hatton. He showed that by not making weight against Corrales.

==========Floyd said the same thing that I made a thread about. He said that Oscar threw the fight with Hopkins so he can get the promotional deal with him and both would get alot of money for the fight. He said why do you think Oscar went down by that weak body blow.===============

** Aside from Floyd being dumber than his jock, what does that have to do with Floyd doing a Roy career path? He's already been following the Roy career path, except Roy never had to hire lawyers to haul him before judges for probation and discipline in criminal assault matters.

Floyd is just a Roy wannabe.

[jack_the_rippuh]

Cotto has a drinking problem?

[myke_test1]

yeah yeah we all know Oscar don't want no parts of Floyd but i hope the deal is made so i can see him get torn apart and finally Floyd get his just due
