      It doesn't sound like he took the list too seriously and was just listing off some names that could be on there, so I"m not gonna hate.

        Shhh.. Floyd doesn’t age. Don’t you know?

        That narrative only works if we say Pac waited...since he’s younger...

          You got this completely wrong. It was Manny who waited for Floyd to get old.
          Why didn’t he fight Floyd in 2005 or 2006 or 2007 or 2008 or 2009 when Floyd moved up to 140 and 147?

          And then he still lost to an old guy in 2015.

            But also what Floyd didn't do would be taken into account. Not fighting abroad, no rematches for biggest rivals. Being risk adverse. Being too methodical and calculated as if every decision made or not made was to protect zero. Floyd needed to relax and let loose a bit and be more spontaneous. Let his hair down a bit.

            Why didn’t PAC give Hatton a rematch? Or Brandon Rios? Or Broner? Or Mathysse?

              You should be banned from every posting on this site you casual! Mayweather is almost two years older than Manny. Robert Garcia even said Maidana lost the first fight despite the elbowing, headbutting, low blows etc. Fade away!

                This is the type of **** that turned Mayweather into Money Mayweather. No matter what he does, he doesn't get a fair assessment. It's always some bull****. What fighter is better than Floyd Mayweather. Floyd has more knockouts than Sugar Ray Leonard; he's fought more pound for pound champions; never been knocked down, let alone loss. He already beat Manny. What else?

                  Pacquiao was injured, not old.

                  Floyd was so gay, he borrowed Freddie's gym weeks vefore the fight and implanted a cam just to see the veracity of the rumor.
                  One armed Pacquiao managed to win half the rounds and made Floyd run, hug, etc. to the point his father outed him on camera for "fighting scared"

                    Because he beat the c rap out of them and they aren't biggest rivals einstein and having 2 wins over these guys don't do much for him. Don't you think Floyd having 2 wins over pac, dlh and nel o is better than 1 win? Don't you think it answers more questions, silence s more critics?

                    Not to mention Pac s ticked those boxes so aren't on Pac s bucket to do list, ie barrera, jmm, morales, Bradley.
                    We've lots of of evidence and proof of how Pac does in rematches and how he comes back from losses!
                    Floyd wouldn't let Pac prove he learnt more in first fight than floyd did.
                    All im trying to do is give Floyd less ammunition for his critics to criticise Floyd and I'm helping Floyd out. Fight outside backyard, give rematches, take bigger risks, don't be so calculated etc Don't be so mysterious, answer the questions and queries people have of you

                      Ruben Olivares is someone I think doesn’t get as much respect as he should.
