Not me... I am a Floyd fan, but I am a boxing enthusiast first. You have to beat the man to be the man in any one division. I still rated Floyd #1 p4p, but I had him #2 in the 140 division because Hatton beat the man of the division. -
What that has to do with anything that I asked you?Originally posted by joeytrimbleif cotto goes out there and beats delahoya or mosley you gonna give him the same credit? **** no
hatton beat zoo who was THE man in his division
and you bastards gave mayweather more credit for beating gatti lmao ..
Yes I would give Cotto the credit if he beat Mosely or DLH, huge credit. And I give Hatton a lot more credit for beating Kostya.
But that has nothing to do with what we're talking about, so let's review:
You said that the difference between Mayweather and Whitaker was that Whitaker implored his style against all-time greats, something Mayweather hasn't done (because he hasn't fought them)
I then asked, would you consider Margarito an all-time great? Of course you wouldn't.
If I asked you if you would consider DLH or Mosely all-time greats, I would hope you would say, yes.
Yet, you're the one bashing Floyd for trying to fight the "all time greats" in his era.Comment

Mayweather was waiting to fight Mosely and DHL for a long time.
I heard him even before fight gatti in the brussel fight.
so even if there outta of there prime there still dangerous as well as these two guy is something that Mayweather wanted for a long time.Comment

I agree totally. Plus who is a more dangerous fight? I think Margarito is an interesting style match up, but I don't think he is more dangerous than Shane or DLH. Hatton or Cotto may be more dangerous as they are in their prime, but those fights are 12 months away (at least). As a boxing fan, these are 2 super-fights I would look forward to seeing.Originally posted by eazy_masMayweather was waiting to fight Mosely and DHL for a long time.

You didn't start talking about fair-weather fans(which there will always be a few), you started hating PBF, saying he doesnt deserve to p4p, & that he doesn't have a good chin, so one good point doesn't make the rest anymore valid. I'm a fan of the art of boxing, which takes several different forms, I don't say Cotto sucks cause he's not the greatest boxer, I don't hate on floyd cause the man uses the ring and doesn't just stand in front of you & slug. Somebody alway's has your number,Forrest & Wright had Mosleys, Mayorga had Forrests, sorry but long after Mayweather loses for the first time he'l still be one of, if not the best p4p fighter in the world IMHO.Originally posted by joeytrimbleuh actually i wasnt compairing roy jones and mayweathers skill
i was compairing how there fans act acted and will act ..
jones was the greatest thing out there just like mayweather is right now...soon as jones lost that was it ..what makes you think it'll be any different when mayweather loses? total package or not when the guy loses you ****ers playing ****** now acting like you dont understand what im talking about will be jumpin ship talking about how mayweather wasnt that greatComment

Mosely and Delahoya are the more dangerous fights for Floyd Jr. Stylistically I think both Mosely and Delahoya are far more superior than Floyd. I dont see Hatton or Cotto posing any kind of threat to Floyd.Comment
