    Who the hell can beat Mayweather???

    Who the hell in the 147 picture or 154 has the skills to beat Mayweather???? If anyone had a good chance to beat him it would be Rigondeaux in my opinion but Rigondeaux weighs about 25-30 pounds less than Mayweather, honestly I don't see anyone out there skilled enough to fight Floyd, people say Andre Ward is a great fighter, excuse my ignorance I haven't had the pleasure to watch an entire Andre Ward fight so I couldn't have an opinion on that, besides the point Ward is 20-30 pounds heavier, honestly I just don't see anyone 147 and up that can beat Floyd, I really wouldn't want to see him fight a 140 pounder like Swift because Floyd is naturally bigger than a natural 140 like Danny, maybe in a few years it would be a good fight, Danny is an intelligent fighter but we all know Floyd is a legend and it would a very difficult fight for my boy Swift

            He could fight Pacquiao. Realistically, that is the only one has a shot at 147. Maybe JMM with his refound strength and speed could be somewhat interesting and at 147, maybe, although I doubt it.

            All the rest are either too green or simply not good enough. If he fights Pacquiao then I would take my hat off to him. Instead who's next, Alexander?

              Anyone with more than 60 rounds at the 147 division would do even if it's a double digit ranked fighter. Why? Because you keep fighting guys who don't really have the experience at the division. 140 fighters by far suck when they move to 147..each division takes a time to get accustomed to. The power shots you get hit with take time to get accustomed to. Sometimes you slow down moving up and it takes time to get accustomed to it and maybe regain some of that hand speed. After all you have a heavier man you'll grapple with at time his natural weight is different then that of a 140 guys..lots of intagibles I just don't see guys with less than 60 rounds truly having any real experience with.

                by David P. Greisman - Floyd Mayweather will tell you that it was an easy $32 million, at minimum, for his win over Robert Guerrero, an eight-figure payday that surpasses what Alex Rodriguez will pull in for an entire season with the New York Yankees, and an amount that does not include other streams of revenue that could raise his take to an even more obscene extreme.

                He will of course go through the usual platitudes about how Guerrero is a good fighter. And that will be true, no matter how empty the compliment seems after how easy Mayweather made it look. It was another easy paycheck, not just because he remains a great fighter, nor just because he received nearly a million dollars per minute.

                The easy money is made possible by the unpaid moments, by a fighter who will still push himself in the gym after an entire life spent in the sport, after more than 16 years as a pro and after earning enough riches that he could retire comfortably without ever needing to worry about another training camp, another set of fists targeting his face and jarring his internal organs.

                But he does not worry in the ring. All of his hard work prepares him. It keeps him sharp, keeps him quick enough to land far more punches than he takes. That helps to preserve his body, which helps him to still be great at 36, which means he can keep that zero at the end of his record, which allows him to see another lengthy series of zeroes at the end of his paycheck.

                base on his carefully picked opponents?

                No doubt...
