    how come Bob Arum wasn't talking down Mayweather when he was winning by decisions....

    Most of the time at welterweight. He said Rigondeaux didn't "put on a good enough performance" against Donaire.

    But what about when Mayweather moved up to 147lbs? Mayweather was winning mostly by decision, and from what I can see he didn't get labelled "boring" by Dan Rafael or his bouts didn't get labelled "snorefests". (too Dan Rafael.)

    For all intents and purposes, Mayweather-Guerrerro will go all 12 rounds unless Guerrerro puts Mayweather away. If it goes 12 rounds lets hear Dan Rafael, et al, call the fight a snoozefest. So much disrespect to Rigondeaux!!

    Because the spin dr was hard at work when he had Floyd. Just wait till Alvarado v PAC is announced and Alvarado will suddenly become an ATG.

            Was he promoting Mayweather at the time? I thought Floyd bought his contract out before then.

                You know they will call him a ATG welter, I've seen the argument he's a middleweight cause he comes to the ring at 158, it's mind blowing.
