Anyone have know of a place where I can find a High Quality version of the Mayweather vs Guerrero fight? I'm talking HD quality. I was only able to see the fight through a crappy stream. If any of you have a link please send it to me and I will green K you in turn.

Thanks.

Once his speed and reflexes go, he's not going to be the same.

that goes for everybody. if he loses anything.he's still way ahead.

Pac was a legitimate challenger for three years and Mayweather avoided him at all costs like all other legitimate challenges since Castillo, and like he's going to do with Canelo as well. Now you got it straight?

Lol. Didn't Pacquiao avoid Floyd at all cost when he started asking for blood test? Didn't Floyd at one point agree to all of Pacquiao's terms as long as they did blood test? Yeah that was the first time they tried to make the fight. Also there was another moment when Floyd agreed to the fight but then Bob Arum came up with some bogus excuse about building a new arena.

Legitimate opponents? So DLH, Cotto, Hatton, Mosley, and Marquez weren't legitimate? But they were when Pacquiao fought them right? And didn't Pacquiao turn down a rematch against Cotto at 154? They said that anything above 147 would be too much for Pacquaio. But yet they fought Antonio Margarito at a catch weight of 150.

The point that I'm making is that Pacquiao has avoided opposition as well. Also fighting some of his opponents at catch weight was a way to protect Manny. Freddie Roach said this himself. How many catch weight fights did Mayweahter do? I can only think of the fight against Marquez. All his other fights he fought at the full weight limit. Also let me remind you that while Pacquiao stayed away from Cotto at 154, which he was strong and comfortable, Mayweather stepped up to the plate and fought Cotto at 154. And he did it while Cotto was on a three fight winning streak, whereas Pacquiao fought him not too long after his brutal loss to Margarito.

Case in point Mayweather fought DLH, Hatton, Cotto, Mosley, and Marquez when were either undefeated, strong, or coming off of big wins. Pacquiao fought these guys when they were pretty much sloppy seconds. Also let me remind you Pacquiao got put to sleep my Marquez, a fighter he struggled and lost to in a span of 4 fighters, whereas Mayweather schooled him in one. Mayweather is clearly the better fighter and he will be ranked above Pacquiao when both of their careers come to an end. Now you got it straight?

If Mayweather and Pacquiao both win their next fights, and this is key, if Manny wins spectacularly I see them fighting very soon. Arum has an old horse on his hands in Manny, a used up animal that's come to the end of his usefulness to a shrewd promoter pulling the reins. No, both Arum, and Manny aren't going to make a fraction of the money they were going to make, but its still better to have a piece of the pie than nothing at all. 2014 is the year, far less fanfare, a smaller purse for Manny naturally and noticeably less excitement. But such is the deflation of a balloon when its filled with nothing but hype and hysteria.

Leonard Ellerbe on Cotto vs Pacquiao:

"He was a dead man walking when he went into the ring," Ellerbe said. "The casual fan doesn't know what difference one or two pounds can make when a fighter is already down to weight. Fighters know."

I'm not sure about that, It will be the winner of Marquez-Bradley and then maybe a fight. The day we see May-Pac is the day when we see Pacquiao leave Arum.

Great fight made. YET, I don't hear anyone sounding off about the "catchweight". It was obviously not requested by Canelo! So where are the *****s that were talking **** about catchweights now? Go figure....

[Ezzard Charles]

floyd's gonna get a whooping..... floyd's fought twice at 154.... and he's weighed 150 and 151.... he'll probably weigh 151 at this catchweight.....

and everytime he's fought at the weight he's looked horrible.... against an aging delahoya and a battered cotto....

he's fighting a fit, young, skilled and tough fighter in canelo....

why anyone think's floyd's gonna beat canelo is a mystery to me....

oh... canelo's gonna be drained.... yeah.... right..... canelo's fought most of career at 147, and when he moved up he fought most his fights at 150..... fought matthew hatton at 151..... the weight is no issue.... he hits the scales at 12% bodyfat, dropping down to 10% bodyfat is not going to do any harm to his chances.....

canelo's about to become the new mayweather.... he's gonna be the dominant figure in this sport for the next 10years....

[Ezzard Charles]

clearly floyd is ducking danny garcia....

and amir khan.....

floyd keep running..... i see you.... cherrypicker.....

scared of fighting the smaller guys, so he decided to fight at a weight he has business at....
