Comments Thread For: Schaefer Hints Mayweather Announcement Coming Shortly

[dc3383]

OK, .....If it's between those two, whatever .... yes, Maidana should have the edge but those 2 should not have been high on Floyd's radar. That is my point! ..... but you were using Bradley and Manny to try to convince me that Maidana is a good pick for Floyd. Not logical!

Remember that Maidana lost at WW to a guy who coincidentally lost to Bradley and Porter. Maidana had to do more than beat Broner, who was fighting at 130 not too long ago to convince me that he has improved to the point that it will be a tough fight for Floyd. This formula has already been used before by Floyd. Before it was Berto now its Broner .....

So what's Manny formula lose recently and get a shot.

Not the least bit surpised Floyd is taking this long. I know how sensitive he is. He's delaying the public backlash as long as possible.

It's more complicated than that. But believe what you will.

I would say it's quite logical, but we can agree to disagree. If it's OK for Manny to fight Rios, and Bradley to fight Ruslan, then it should be more than OK for Floyd to choose Maidana. If Floyd chooses Khan, who has done nothing @ WW, it is no different than Manny choosing Rios, who was coming off a loss @ 140. Bradley almost got beat by a guy in his first fight @ WW. I'm trying to show the hypocrisy, not beat down Manny and Bradley!

Manny: Came off of a devastating KO loss. So Rios fight was acceptable, given the circumstances.

It's not just Floyd, if anyone who consistently does it, I would question. Floyd has done it before and often. Big difference!

I have already questioned some of Manny's fights in the past but Floyd is making a living out of cherry picking!

So what's Manny formula lose recently and get a shot.

You mean the Judah fight? Khan fight? Or Maidana being Devon's recent leftover or Maidana being Khan's leftover? Please clarify?

It'll be a joke fight like Khan or Maidana so I cant see why this would be 'must see tv'. Golden Boy and team floyd are a joke, they said over two months ago that they would be announcing floyds next opponent in 7 days, and still nothing.

No one cares. He needs to pick a top 15"4" fighter no more 147 or 152 opponets.

There is nobody left for Floyd, at least nobody with the ability to outsmart Mayweather and technically win. I think we have all seen enough to omit him being stopped with one big blow. I'm sure even if he suffered his first knockdown he would be able to bounce back. The way he outclassed Canelo should have opened everyones eyes by now. The guy is technically great and also has a good enough chin to keep from being knocked down, much less knocked out by a huge power puncher since he is known for playing it safe and not taking many chances. I do not see him getting beat.

I know everyone chants Pacquiao is the one to beat Mayweather, but I personally don't see it. I hope they fight to show why Mayweather is where he is and why Pacman is where he is. There is a gap between the two fighters even though the boxing public likes to play along as if Mayweather was scared all along to fight Pac.

Here are the few who Mayweather can fight.. Porter, Alexander, Lara, Maidana, Garcia, Provodnikov, Pacquiao, Khan, Brook, Bradley, Kirkland, Molina, Thurman, Collazo, Broner, Charlo Bros...

In my opinion, the only ones who would give Mayweather some kind of challenge would be Bradley & Khan out of the pack. Khan is a joke of a name to everyone on here, but that is my personal opinion.

Canelo was too big, too slow and too green to be a match for Mayweather. Some knew that, but many didn't. Mayweather certainly knew it. Of those on your list of possible opponents, I bet Mayweather would avoid all who have any speed and power, Pacquiao included. Before Pac's recent losses, he was the chief career rival of Mayweather and I beleive he still is. Bottom line, Floyd plans to ride off into the sunset undefeated and he will not fight anyone who can threaten to spoil that for him.

There's not gonna be any buzz or hype for this Madiana fight either. They will only have 1-2 months to promote this sham.
