But Im just a fan that wants to see him fight other good-great fighters, or someone that will test him.
I love boxing more than boxers.
I would love to see Floyd fight every 3 months if he could. Because that means he would fight 4 times a year.
Once Again on this topic,
I think Floyd fans have no problem with floyd fighting Other WW's...
The problem is that People saying he can ONLY fight Welterweights for it to be a legitimate fight and win, when he himself is not really a welterweight compare to the rest of the welterweights...
- I Didnt see people having a problem with Middleweight Hopkins Fighting a jr.middleweight De La hoya at the time instead of a top middleweight
- I Didnt see people having with A jr. Middleweight Oscar De La Hoya Fighting a small welterweight in Mayweather at the time instead of a top jr.middleweight
- I Didnt see people having with Middleweight Marvin Hagler Fighting a jr. Middleweight in Thomas Hearns at the time instead of a top middleweight
Why is that Mosely& Cotto can call out Pacquaio and Hatton but Floyd can't?
(which he still havent did)
Why cant Floyd fight people his own size and even smaller then him when he himself is a small dude fighting bigger dudes all the time is my point...
People get mad because I apply the standards on other fighters that they apply to Floyd...but my whole thing is dont be a hypocrite.
If you think it is Cool for Pacquaio to fight Hatton...Then you should think it's Cool For Pacquaio to fight Floyd...
If you think It's cool for Floyd to fight Paul Williams, then you should think it's cool for Floyd to fight somebody has tremendous physical advnatages over...
You get my point.... DONT MAKE SPECIAL RULES for Floyd and not everybody else. thats been my problem from day 1.
DOUBLE STANDARDS

Cause people see he has unbelievable talent and want to face greater adversity compared with above mentioned fighter.I think of it as a compliment rather than a double standard, he also thrashtalk and people want to see him back it up.

Floyd Mayweather really never had a big money fight up untill he fought Oscar De La Hoya. Then he really made the spotlight. Before it was more his talking that gave him more recognition. Nobody really knew anything about his opponents untill he fought De La Hoya. Diego Corales got more fame after he fought Jose Luis Castillo. Even though Castillo had been knocked out five times he got fame for that fight.
No ones stays undefeated if they fight the best. Sugar Ray Leonard, Tommy Hearns, Sugar Ray Robinson, Pernall Whitaker, Oscar de La Hoya, Shane Mosley. All these fighters displayed speed and many had more pounching power than Mayweather. Great fighters and they all lost.
If you want to give fans a good boxing match you have to do something more than just run, clinch and hold. Boxing wouldn't be the same if every boxer just plays it safe.

"Why is that Mosely& Cotto can call out Pacquaio and Hatton but Floyd can't?
(which he still havent did)" as for this I just dont get it. Not my thinking. Margarito fought a bigger guy in Williams, Cotto in Margarito, Hoya and Pac, Mosley and Forrest, so whatever.
