    Mayweather's reputation keeps dropping

    Mayweather's last three fights...

    Gatti - KO'd by Baldomir
    Mitchell - KO'd by Williams
    Judah - beaten by Baldomir

    This just shows Mayweather really needs to step up in competition, especially for a fighter who claimed himself better than Ali, Leonard and Robinson. I also think his victory over Baldomir in November would do little to save his plummeting reputation.

      Ehh...I see what you're saying, but just because Bob beats Bill -and Bill beat Max...it doesn't make Bob better than Max. It just means that they styles of the fighters lead to that outcome. Look at Vernon Forest. He beat Mosley....and Sugar Shane beat De la Hoya twice....are we saying that Vernon Forest is better than De la Hoya? No.

      My point is, just because Williams beat Mitchell faster than Mayweather did- does not mean he is a better fighter. Also...the Baldomir fight did end in TKO...but Gatti got beat more solidly by Mayweather than he did by Baldomir. Styles make fights...and it just so happens that the list you made shows some contrasting styles.

        Frazier beat Ali. Foreman beat Frazier. Ali beat Foreman.

              All the PBF jock sniffers will say that PBF ****ed those guys and they were bums immediately after they fought him but that is not the case. Mitchell was "KOed" with a ***** little body shot that he got up from and Mitchell was previously FLATTENED by Zoo.

              Gatti's been shot for years and we all know how much of a headcase Judah is.

                Its easy to say that in retrospect, but thats not what people were saying before the fight.

                  A perfect example of contrasting styles.

                    Gatti and Judah were beat by a man that has not lost in 22 straights, lets not forget that. So this is the reason Floyd/Baldy fights makes alot of sense now. The winner will be considered the true welterweight champion.

                    Williams is an undefeated fighter that will probably give anyone a tough fight, I think that Williams will be the toughest fight for PBF at this time.

                    Also you can't fight everyone over night, so why is PBF gets picked on for this ****, everyone does this.

                    Lol, I guess Charlie will be your new buddy.
