Mayweather's 147-154 resume

[BafanaBafana]

Mayweather Jr (9-0-0) 3 KOs


2005
Sharmba Mitchell 147

2006
Zab Judah 147
Baldomir 147

2007
Oscar de La Hoya 154
Ricky Hatton 147

2009

JMM 147

2010
Mosely 147

2011
Ortiz 147

2012
Cotto 154


I believe the toughest fights here are DLH (2007) at 154 and Cotto (2012) at 154.


The question is, how would the following welterweight fighters do against Mayweather's resume (in context)?

Cotto
Felix Trinidad
Paul Williams
Margarito
Pacquiao
Any other fighters you think could have done well against this opposition...

[BafanaBafana]

My take:
Felix Trinidad: (9-0) 7-8 KOs
Paul Williams: (9-0) 3-4 KOs
Margarito: (6-3) 5 KOs; loses to Cotto (UD/MD), Mosely (UD/TKO9), De la Hoya (UD)
Pacquiao: (8-1-0) 5 KOs; loses to Cotto (UD/MD); close fight with JMM
Cotto (can't fight himself): (7-1-0) 4 KOs; loses to De La Hoya (MD/UD)

Trinidad runs through all of them, DLH would still be troublesome but he takes a beating, especially with that version of Oscar being more stationary. Truth be told that one would have lived up to the hype, more so than the first fight.

Williams beats them all except Oscar, Oscar knocks him out.

Pacquiao loses to both Cotto and Oscar at 154, Oscar stops him.

Margarito loses to Mosley, Oscar and Cotto.

My take:
Felix Trinidad: (9-0) 7-8 KOs
Paul Williams: (9-0) 3-4 KOs
Margarito: (6-3) 5 KOs; loses to Cotto (UD/MD), Mosely (UD/TKO9), De la Hoya (UD)
Pacquiao: (8-1-0) 5 KOs; loses to Cotto (UD/MD); close fight with JMM

man Pac beat Cotto at any weight. it's a matter of simple principle, Pac's never fighting at 154 for anyone much less a guy he destroyed. Cotto is probably better at 150 than at 154, and he didnt want it there, after asking for 150 6 months earlier and requesting it from one eyed Marg.

Some of the most intriguing match-ups here are:

Margarito (2007-08) vs. De la Hoya (2007) at 154
Pacquiao vs Cotto (2012) at 154
Cotto vs De La Hoya (2007) at 154

When its broken down like that its so easy to see just how bad his level of competition has been. In 8 years that is all he has fought?

And I know people will say they was #1 or #2 at the time but that is only because he has waited years for the division(s) to thin out.

''Its his 4th weight class'' Please!

Lets face it he wasted most of his prime. I can't support the guy any longer and haven't for years, hes a joke.

Mitchell, Boldomir, Ortiz Cotto, 40yr old Mosley.

Just names when he fought them. Err. Just retire, I cba spending the next 3 years listening to Larry defend the **** you fight.

For the record I feel Williams, Trinidad, go through them all undefeated.
Pacquaio has 1 loss to JMM.

I feel many, many others throughout the years go through all of those undefeated too taking into consideration when he fought most of them.

[IronDanHamza]

Any version of Pacquaio destroys any version of Cotto.

Only fighter who goes through that resume undefeated IMO is Trinidad.

My take:
Felix Trinidad: (9-0) 7-8 KOs
Paul Williams: (9-0) 3-4 KOs
Margarito: (6-3) 5 KOs; loses to Cotto (UD/MD), Mosely (UD/TKO9), De la Hoya (UD)
Pacquiao: (8-1-0) 5 KOs; loses to Cotto (UD/MD); close fight with JMM
Cotto (can't fight himself): (7-1-0) 4 KOs; loses to De La Hoya (MD/UD)

Please don't ruin a potentially good thread with this ****. There are plenty of "**** on Floyd" threads that this post would fit right at home in.
