    Thing is this man, Mayweather has built a style. He has polished and perfected that style. Then he looks for opponents who fit that style so it works and he shines. It's like an actor who only picks a certain role so he can look good and keep the status of a good actor... even though people notice and ultimately hold it against him.

    Mayweather knows the style doesn't work against dynamic moving targets (he likes his targets stationary) who throw fast awkward combinations that his style isn't designed to predict and block. And let's not get into the southpaw subject.

      It wasn't really an inspiring win, by any means.
      Do you think the fight being at Oscars weight, the size of the gloves and ring had anything to do with the outcome as well?

        Good post. Mayweather is a hypejob indeed.

          So then why didn't Oscar fight him in his prime. Floyd had been calling Oscar out for years before they finally fought.

              Oh wow!! He actually didn't get to have everything his way for once!!!

              He didn't have to fight at 154 but he chose to campaign there, now he campaigns there draining 154'lbers.

                  I hope you're trolling. Please be trolling. 154 Cotto is a lazy, one foot out the door, version of Cotto, that's been beaten to death like a Pinata.

                  Floyd didn't even fight Margarito, soooooo.......

                    No, absolutely not

                    The fight that proved he was a hypejob was his bout with Angel Manfredy. Early stoppage, his punches weren't landing cleanly and the ref didn't help Angel out at all when he took his opportunity to fight back away.
