Name 1 Prime A-level fighter that Mayweather has on his resume......

[Thraxox]

So It Is possible to fight with a torn rotator cuff?

I like how they excuse Castillo getting robbed was the result of Mayweather fighting with torn ratator cuff while calling Pacquiao a liar for saying he had a torn rotator cuff, double standards is their favorite past time.

You have to be a huge closet Floyd Mayweather fan to really paint the idea that Floyd ducked Mosley!

Do you not know that Mosley own father and trained said they only wanted the fight if it would make them $10 mill?!! It was on the broadcast of one of Floyd's fights in which the ring color commentator asked about the match up!

So don't make it seem like it's ALL his fault! Neither of them were making anything close to that money!

A loose tooth?? Lmao Floyd fought with a torn rotator cuff and then healed it/rehabbed and fought Castillo again!.


Floyd fought with 2 bad hands in a fight?!

Shall I continue? I see thru your agenda, your a close Floyd Mayweather fan and I wouldn't be surprised he's your hero deep down!

You and Spoon should get together for a Floyd Mayweather stakeout!

If you are going to say that are willing to concede that Floyd fought a Pacquiao that has a torn rotator cuff? If not then I can see through your agenda also.

That's not how it works, you have to back it up with facts, you cant just throw your words around and hopefully get some point.

Barrera was 29 coming off with the wins of Hamed, Ayala, Tapia, Morales, then he got beat by Pacquiao, then after his defeat of Pacman, he then beats MORALES once more, and remained in the p4p list till his defeat at the hands of PACQUIAO once more at 33 years old.
So Pacquiao fought a prime barrera.

Marquez- doesn't matter if he didn't beat him convincingly, he fought him at his prime and at his best weight, he got the W and didn't have to rob him of unlike Ward did to Kov.

Bradley - Didn't beat anyone decent? LOL, Witter, undefeated Peterson, undefeated Alexander, Junior Witter, Ruslan Provodnikov, undefeated Jessie Vargas, JUAN MANUEL MARQUEZ. he's going to end up in the HoF whether you like it or not, long reinging unified WBO/WBC and Lineal Light Welterweight champion for 4 years.

Cotto- damaged goods, fought him and stopped him.
Dela Hoya- shot, one of Pacquiao's not good wins
Moseley- shot, one of Pacquiao's not so good wins.


So Pacquiao has 3 Prime A-level fighters in his resume and Mayweather has.....0

I just want to know, how is cotto in his prime when manny fought him. But not in his prime when he fought mayweather?

Manny fought cotto after margarito and dragged cotto down in weight for no reason instead of fighting him at 147. When cotto fought floyd , floyd fought him at the full 154 and cotto actually got revenge over margarito before he fought floyd.

So you could say floyd beat a better version of cotto, that debunks the past prime myth of cotto. So there you go , cotto and canelo are 2 prime opponents on floyds resume.

It Is the same story day after day.

LOL. Mayweather is on tape in the corner saying he hurt his shoulder and he was visibly injured. Pacquaio didn't mention anything to his corner about his shoulder and after the fight couldn't even tell the interviewers where he was hurt (wrist? Elbow? Arum whispers in his ear shoulder). Pacquaio also threw more punches with the supposedly injured shoulder than he did with his other. And then he said it magically healed itself after he swam in salt water.

You don't see the difference?

Since when did I say Pacquiao fought a prime Cotto? I said Cotto- damaged goods, fought him and stopped him, and fought him earlier than Floyd did.

And no, Floyd did not beat a better version of Cotto, thats just nonsense.

Corrales
Castillo x2
Hatton
Canelo

How is cotto dragged down in weight to 145 better than full strength cotto at 154 coming off of beating margaritos ass? Cotto wasnt damaged goods at all, he just took a beating from margarito then beat his ass in the rematch. Someone who is damaged goods doesnt do that.

The truth is both floyd and manny fought cotto while he was still in his prime, manny just dragged him down 2 extra pounds for no reason but to drain him a little more.

Also canelo was in his prime when floyd beat him he had over 40 pro fights and had been a pro since 15, he wasnt "green" at all. And wasnt drained at all, him and oscar offered to fight floyd at 150, floyd actually gave them 2 extra pounds by fighting at 152.

Canelo
Cotto

2 prime a level opponents. There you go.

Obviously you're new to boxing and have no clue the timeline.

Cotto fought @ 147 where he was beat to **** by Marg.
Cotto fought and beat Jennings and then Clottey each time weighing 146
Cotto got TKO by Pac @ 145
2 years later, he fought Marg @ 154 followed by Floyd.

Floyd beat a 32 year old Cotto at the tail of his career after two brutal beatdowns in a weight class above his best weight. Pac beat a 28 year old with one loss in his best weight class.

Canelo was still very green and had no notable wins at the time and you criticize Manny for Cotto catchweight...but give Floyd a pass for his catcweight against Canelo. Which is it?

[QUOTE=Johnny2x2x;17999878]

They were the best available possible opponents at the time. Corrales was a P4P guy who was massive and a KO artist.

Hatton called Floyd out and had beaten Tszyu.

Here's the thing, if Mayweather hadn't fought Corrales, Hatton, or Baldomir for that matter he would have been accused of ducking. He fought the best opponent available in each of these cases.

Both are good wins and among the best available opponents at the time...but neither are in the same class as Floyd, Pac, JMM, etc. I believe neither have been inducted to HOF, so obviously they're class A fighters, right?
