Who do Mayweather's critics expect him to fight?

[DiegoFuego]

In case you missed my earlier response on your brilliant thread, "Told Y'all....pt 37"

I'm not going to get into a debate with you because I don't want to feel my IQ drop by the post; but since you decided to fire a shot in my direction, deal with this: You are a sad little dweeb that feels the need to make threads such as this one so as to embellish your overall importance in a pathetic cry for respect.

Your crying for attention and over-the-top self-praise is indicatve of an extremely fragile ego and low feelings of self worth, which you try to boost through contact in the cyber-world. Your following along with the trend, concerning fight-picks, does not make you an expert as much as it paints a facade that you actually know your ass from a hole in the ground.

I have, in all likelihood, forgotten more about the sweet science than you are likely to learn in two life-times; but if it keeps you from spiraling downward into a pit of self-loathing and depression and ultimately suicide, feel free to assert your so-called "knowledge".

However, in between logging on to this website and proclaiming your own greatness and expert-analysis, think about going outside of your little room and trying to make some friends, or, maybe even talking to a girl for once in your life. You might find contact with real people in the real world to be both self-rewarding and esteem-building in nature.

Good luck with it, junior....Have a Nice Day.

LOL what does ANY of this have to do with boxing? I'm very content with my life, but if I have time to expose some boxing experts on line, by God, I'm going to do it because I can.

Mayweather should stay at one weight and unify the titles then move up, but when you pick and choose the champions you want to fight it's easy to be as good as he is. Mayweather is a loser, he considers himself the best but fights mediocre fighters and takes their belts wow your amazing floyd, i so cant wait for your arrogant ass to retire after being beat by DLH

I wonder why Mosley wasn't this highly criticized when he was knocking out nobodies at 135

They have medication for your hallucinations....Such a sad, sad, little wanna-be man.

I'm done with this.

that's understandable. I suppose he could have offered Cotto a fight at 140, but the only other champion was Hatton (IBF and WBA), and Hatton refused him. So he could have fought Cotto, but honestly Judah and Baldomir were much bigger, more accomplished opponents than Cotto. and who knows if Arum would have let Cotto fight? I think not. I don't doubt that Cotto would have wanted it, but I don't think his management would have let him. Mayweather probably did the only thing he could by moving up.

so at 147 we have champions in Hatton and Margarito. as previously stated, Hatton has ran from Mayweather like nobody's business so the WBA title was out. then there's Margarito, who still has accomplished nothing, although he is forced to try now. if he beats Clottey and Paul Williams, then I could see Mayweather needing to fight him. but as it stands, Margarito sat 2006 out waiting for Mayweather when he should have been making and winning big fights, something he did not do.

so really Mayweather HAS cleaned out the divisions whenever and wherever possible so long as the opponents are deserving.

yeah, that makes sense dude. the idea is to see him fight more guys, and since at this point he can beat him all, he might as well.

Why is gathering paper titles so important? So if Floyd moved down to 140 to fight Urango, Witter, M'Baye, and the winner of Torres-Arnaoutis, you think his legacy would be that much greater? You think those 4 fights combined can do more than moving up to 154 and beating a legend?

yes and no, fighting Oscar is the biggest thing right now and since that is a go, that is what needs to take place, but before all that he could've cleaned out any divison so he might get more acclaim by those who doubt and discredit his career choices.
robinson went 95-0 before losing a fight and he fought EVERYONE available, i think floyd should do more of the same if he wants the same recognition.

[deuce_drop]

So who didn't Floyd fight at 147, other than the former Undisputed Welterweight champion of the world and the lineal Welterweight champion of the world?

Oh right, he didn't fight that man... y'know the guy that won a paperbelt... y'know the WBO paper champ, the guy that had a title shot for it and lost, then only got the belt because Santos moved up to 154, and... has defended the belt against absolutely no one of note... what's his name again? Oh yeah, Antonio Margarito.

Damn, is that going to have a damper on his legacy

clearing out any division and beating everyone you fight, paper champ or not isn't going to DAMPER his career, but it will be under dispute due to the level of talent available.

i'm not saying that margarito is worthy of fighting floyd but why not take his belt if you're floyd, that and even though margarito isn't the biggest named mexican fighter, you ask any mexican what kind of fight they like to see and they'll tell you they like watching another mexican fight a black guy. so even though margarito isn't a huge name the mexican people would show support and buy tickets as well as PPV if they were to fight.

but that don't matter anymore floyd is fighting the biggest mexican name since JCC, even though oscar is mexican-american.

Who do they expect him to fight? Why, that's a simple question. Sugar Ray Leonard, Ray Robinson, and Roberto Duran, then he's a good fighter.

see that's where you fall in line with me and DLT. we appreciate Mayweather and want to see him fight all these guys because he certainly can and will beat them all. if only Mayweather would take the time to do it. but he's thinking retirement soon and big fights only instead of legacy. I'd love to see him fight Cotto, Spinks, De La Hoya, Mosley, and Hatton, but sometimes it's just not possible to do it all. what if he loses interest and gets beat? a loss to any of those guys could ruin his legacy.

but then when they fight (Leonard and Duran that is), then everyone will just say they're past their prime. of course they won't say this until AFTER Mayweather crushes them.
