    There is a lot of talent around and I think Mayweather gets his due for the risks he takes. I mean, on paper, Baldomir is not even a close fight if you go on talent alone. It will become a big deal if Baldomir can somehow break into Mayweather, hurt him and have him digging deep.

    Mayweather is so talented but he's only been recognized as the best fighter pound-for-pound for two years. Hopefully, he will be able to secure more defining fights so that when he does finally get beaten, people can't pick apart his career as they did with Roy Jones.

        Mayweather definitely has the talent.

        By the time Jones started slipping and was beaten, he still had some work to do I think. there's no doubt that he beat some quality opponents, but there was a lot of **** on his record, too. I hope Mayweather erases all doubt.

          Only two things can stop Floyd: Money and weight. He might get too greedy and fight for too long or he might move up too high in weight, which could be anything more than Welter. He is the most talented fighter in the world, no doubt, but everyone loses sometime (almost everybody).

            It definitely helps Floyd that he moves to different weight divisions. Corrales and Castillo continuing to win big fights helps Floyd's legacy because he beat them. If he stayed in a division and dominated then nobody would know how good the other fighters in the division were.

              to see him beat,at the moment,would scar my love for boxin,i dno why,i dno how,but i think deep down,every 1 knows mayweather is the heart of boxin at the moment,hes not a slugger tryina entertain and win crowds,hes not a show boat(in the ring),hes the definition of boxing,a good all around technical fighter,just what we need,very talented fighter,peoples response to him turnin down margarito was pathetic,mayweather has done so much more than marg to get where he is,margs only claim to fame at the moment is mayweather turning him down,and for what?money,which is fair enough,coz at the end of the day,if mayweather beat marg,we wouldnt here of him again,marg would vanish,hes jus got a chip on his shoulder that a minority think he would beat floyd

                  Only thing that could ruin him in my opinion is going past 154. He doesn't need to go to 160 and fight Jermaine Taylor who is much bigger and stronger than him. I think he can handle his money although he is a bit greedy.
