    its hard to say because while he is fightin bigger people most agree speed can most of the time neutralize strength

    forget Margarito he is far to slow in hand an foot to beat mayweather also i think mosley makes too many mistakes to beat him, if floyd was 2 lose a fight it will be vs de la hoya at 154 if he fought ODLH at 147 he would beat him

      I wouldnt mind seeing PBF v Mosely actually. I think Mosely could cause many problems.

        I agree 100% in what you say. Mayweather is too small for 147 and even 154. He is nearly the only one at 135 that went up on wieght successfully, most are either still fighting a the wieghtclass or force out.

        He too his size, speed ( as you go up you slow down) and power most of all but he he still has the boxing ability to take him through and that is one of the thing that makes Mayweathe special.

        maybe someday people will say he was better than SRL.
        What about Oscar or Shane? They both fought at 135 and successfully moved up to 154 (we won't count Oscar's "victory" at 160). Hell, Oscar won his first belt at 130.

        Everyone said that Evander Holyfield was too small to be a heavyweight champ and look at how good he was. He was faster and could move around more than any other heavyweight and that gave him a huge advantage. Floyd has the same advantage against dinosaurs like Oscar or Mosley. They've slowed down just enough for Floyd to be able to use his small size to his advantage.

          Oscar was really tall and both him & Shane are still naturally bigger then Floyd no matter what weight they start at. Look at Chico. He started at 130 too but he could put on weight easier at the higher classes then Floyd.

          All you have to look at is there weight. Oscar & Shane still both put on a good amount of weight when they fought at WW while Floyd only comes into the ring at the WW limit most of the time. At 154 both Shane & Oscar still put on a good amount of weight after the weigh in but everyone says that Floyd doesnt even walk around at more then 150.

          Floyd can still fight at 135 easily while Oscar & Shane were huge at 135

                Mayweather is going down in history as 1 of the best Super featherweights of all time yet he beats the then number 1 Jr Middleweight in De La Hoya and still gets hated on.

                  Floyd Mayweather is too small, but Manny Pacquiao isn't? Mayweather should eat more often.

                    The only thing I had a problem with was him throwing one shot at a time.
                    What ever happened to his combinations?
                    I mean, he was never the type to throw a 8 punch flurry, but he usually three those 3-4 punch combos all the time.
                    He used no combination punching.
                    If he keeps that up, someone will eventually time and catch him.
                    Yeah, what happend to the more offensive Floyd?

                      What are you hatorade drinking people talking about? Floyd is 5'9" and is a natural 147lb division fighter.

                      I dont see how you can call him small? Comparing him to Williams is dumb because Williams is a natural 154 that can cut to 147. Besides Williams or Margarito there aren't many that are bigger than him at WW.

                      Not wanting to fight JWW is a choice. JMM is all ***** and needs to stop cummin out his lips.
