Why do fans rarely demand Mayweather to face other black fighters?

          Mayweather-Bradley
          Mayweather-Thurman
          Mayweather-Brook
          Mayweather-Lara
          Mayweather-Alexander (if Devon beats Khan which I think he will)

          All interesting matchups.

            What black fighters should he have fought? The only one was Mosley, and he fought him. Berto lost to Ortiz. Porter lost to Brook. Alexander was universally reviled when suggested.

            There's no black fighter he should have fought but didn't.

              Lol dude this isn't 2010 anymore.





              Once upon a time Berto was an undefeated champion but momentum was broken by the pull out vs Mosley and then losing to Ortiz and Guerrero ended all hope

                  If he wins this weekend he would have been a top 5-10 WW for the last 4 years, and yet no one is interested in him fighting Mayweather, he's not flat footed and not slow like alot of people Mayweather have fought.

                  The only black fighters that Floyd was demanded to fight was Paul Williams and Shane Mosley, other wise it seems to be little request to do so. And Shane Mosley not so much until he got in Floyds face and everybody though Floyd was scared.

                  And when I say demand, I don't mean boxing scene demand, Im talking about hardcore demand, casual, purist, hardcore fans, like when everyone demanded the Canelo Alvarez fight.

                  And there is alot of legit black fighters.

                  Timothy Bradley
                  Kell Brook
                  Devon Alexander
                  Keith Thurman
                  Andre Berto
                  Shawn Porter
                  Kid Chocolate

                  and the list goes on
                  when corrales was dominant. they called for him to fight him. when Mosley was the man, people demanded Floyd fight him. People wanted Floyd to fight Tim but he said "i'm not chasing a Floyd fight" when he resigned with TR instead of exploring other options. If he was not with TR, people would call for that fight.

                  People would like to see Floyd v Thurman or brook.

                    Devon Alexander is a glorified bum. That's why. Tim Bradley exposed him. And that's that.

                      if berto would've beaten ortiz or Guerrero he would've gotten the chance he screwed up two chances. when Maidana beat broner people called for floyd to fight him cause "there is no way floyd would be able to deal with someone who takes punishment and keeps coming forward" then Floyd fought him, then it was floyd wouldnt let him use his 8oz gloves, then floyd rematched him and let him use 8oz gloves. MORAL OF THE STORY: No matter who floyd fights people are always gonna say someone else is the guy thats gonna beat him. but none of them does now its he doesnt fight black guys. Yeah like judah or mosely wasnt black, next up is why doesnt he fight white guys.....oh my bad
