it would suck for floyd in the short term but in the long term it might make him a historically greater fighter. if he fights top opposition after losing he has a good chance at becoming greater than what he is thought of right now. most people rate elite wins over undefeated records. 1 loss with some elite wins goes farther than a bunch of b level wins, and even if he does lose by robbery people will just say it was a robbery like oscar-trinidad, pac-bradley etc...it won't effect his all time great status much.

Floyd doesn't deserve to have his '0' taken by robbery. He has won all his fights fairly convincingly. The first Castillo fight was very a debatable verdict, the result could have went to either fighter. Very close fight.
I'd prefer for Floyd to lose his '0' clearly. A robbery would be a travesty imo.

I don't see that happening in Vegas but you never know but if a guy worked his ass off to reach a certain level, out of respect alone you don't just GIVE HIS 0 AWAY! Somebody truly has to TAKE THAT, either by KO or by out-boxing Mayweather.
Of course you have some people who at this point don't care how it happens they just want to see him lose, those are not boxing fans I don't even take those fans serious. They don't care how Mayweather lose they just want to see him lose.

I doubt Floyd gets " robbed", and those insinuating or are in pre celebratory mode because you think it should happen, all I can say is I feel bad for your mother, wives, and girlfriends because you sound like a Pu$$y straight up.

None of the above. I'd shrug it off as boxing politics, seen it too many times over the years but that rematch would sell like crack.
