    Why give Floyd credit for.........

    beating up MUCH lesser fighters? I'll give him credit WHEN he beats Gatti, which he will when they fight. He wont beat Kostya Tzsyu, and I give Miguel Cotto a good chance of beating him. I do not give him credit for fighting this Brusseles guy. Sorry Floyd lovers, you shouldnt either. Your boy is fighting nobodies. That's why he wont be regarded as the p4p king, and it's why he's not a household name. Great fighters need to fight great fighters. Floyd doesnt seem to want to do that.

      I'm with you that this Brussels guy is not a high calibur fighter and PBF should be fighting better opposition but to say he has fought no one is a far stretch. When he was at 130 he took on the very best in the division to include destroying Diego in one of the worst beatings ever dished out in a big fight. Then he went to 135 and took on the champ Castillo and beat him not once but twice. Now he is in search of even greater conquests at 140. The only one I give a chance of beating him is Kostya and I would still picPBF in that one. To me PBF has the best overall skills I have seen in a long time if not ever. I'm not saying he is the greatest ever but their is no one boxing today who has as good an offense, defense and all around ring skills as he does. If their were bigger names and money at 130 I believe he would have stayed their and reigned supreme. By going up in weight he risks getting KOed by a naturally bigger guy. Either way I thing he is destined for greatness and is the best p4p today. Hopefully he will fight Gatti next just to show everyone how truly great he is and can be.

        Well all I can say is that this fight is over. If Gatti wins next week it will set up their super-fight and he'll beat him and get at least a little of the credit he deserves..

          After wars against Micky Ward, Gatti is damaged goods my friend. Granted he WAS a great fighter until he met DLH. BUT look at all the wars Gatti has fought! And that is why Gatti is a household name and NOT Floyd. Floyd is just using the marketing presence of Gatti to get rich off him, but its a 2-way street Gatti will get rich 2.

          As long as its war between Gatti & Floyd i really dont give a **** who wins! JUST ENTERTAIN ME DAMMIT! lol.

              I havn't seen the fight but i've seen highlites and yea he did kick his ass lol. But at that time i wasn't really a big boxing fan and have only heard of the big name fighters, which obviously floyd wasn't. Hopefully he gives us a few wars.

                Hate to break it to you, but Brusseles is just as good as Gatti. Gatti is not a good fighter people. Floyd Mayweather has fought great competion in his career and has never ducked anyone he's always gone out of his way to make the big fights happen.

                Floyd has made elite p4p fighters look flat out foolish at time. Corrales, Castillo2x and Hernandez were all very highly thought of.

                If anyone is keeping this fight from happening its Gatti and Gatti's people. They know its a sure loss for Gatti.

                  Gatti has improved his boxing skills as of late and he might not as young but some people including myself think he is at his best right now. As for zoo i say its a toss up.
