    That'd be an incredible fight. He'd win so many fans over with fights like this.

    He had his chance years ago with Sergio, Sergio offer him 20/80 split or something like that Floyd declined tho.

    I understand Mayweathers hustle its understandable. but Fights like these would have really won over fans.

      Far more exciting than Maidana or Khan which will be easy wins.
      You know very well it would be at a 155 CW. Yeah Money beats Kid Chocolate.

            But he conveniently goes there to fight guys he know he will beat. Washed up Oscar and Cotto. But Canelo had to come to 152. Why won't he meet Sergio or GGG at 154?

              If Cuban fans actually showed support to Cuban fighters, yes I can see it. But Cuban fans are almost non-existent.

                Floyd Mayweather Jr. undefeated champion at 130. 135, 140, 147 and 154, the greatest defensive wizard of his generation would never move up to 160, no matter how much his fans believe he can win fights at that weight.

                This is the same man who skipped out on fights against Margarito and Paul Williams, taking on the likes of Baldomir instead. This is the same guy who didn't want to fight a prime Mosley cos "Mosley has 5 losses and I never fight anyone with that many losses" or a prime Cotto cos, "He's lost, why should I fight him after he's lost?"

                You think this same man would fight a much bigger guy who hits damn hard?

                    I pointed that out 2/3 months ago but was told the population of Cubans in America wasn't that much.. I find that strange but am not going to argue with a Cuban or American Cuban poster.

                      Floyd would school Quillin, even if he weighs a lot less on fight night.
