Mayweather vs Who?

[Replies: 92]
We all know mayweather doesn't have much left in his career due to his hands and wrists and yes he has dominated his divison but compared to someone like roy jones jr or ali what does mayweather have to do to be remembered as one of the greatest boxers of all time? I mean yea he has won some fights against great boxers but de la hoya and gatti at the end of there career. the cinderella man and judah and hatton (probably best win). If mayweather has the guts i would love to see him step into the ring with jones jr. If jones can win all the way up into the heavyweight divison i think mayweather could take the last stand and end his career with a bang. Another opponent would be paul williams. A new up and coming younger star with alot of potential. If mayweather could take williams during his prime and future down the road williams has an amazing career with a defeat by mayweather it would be very beneficial to mayweathers record. I doubt mayweather will step into the ring with anymore topnotch opponents but those are 2 that I would love to see him end his career fighting. I mean mayweather is the talk of the talk.. The big mouth in the boxing world lets see mayweather step it up and take on someone that would really justify he is a truly great boxer and can defeat anyone in the ring.

PBF and Cotto is the suppose to be the fight that every body is looking for. But now Margarita and Cotto fighting I do not see PBF and Cotto match up because Margarita is going to blow Cotto out the frame. PBF need to set up the fight with Margarita and dismiss the golden bitch. The golden bitch need to go after Trinidad from that disputed lose instead of going after PBF just to TRY to blemish his record. The golden bitch need to the guys from the contender seeing he like to shine on them. As a matter of fact every body is shinning on the CONTENDERS. Matching PBF with Jones is like matching Winky with Pac man. It will never happen. Just remember PBF called out the golden bitch when he was at the 130's pound. Nevertheless PBF was so called to small for him and guest what happened, HE WAS TOO QUICK FOR THE GOLDEN BITCH!!!!!!!!

Comparing Floyd to Oscar is like monkey to pitbull... LOL!
I didn't see any exciting style on any of Mayflower's fights but purely his old marathon runner techniques and hit and run driver's style while people buy Oscar's fights because of his being an aggressive and offensive fighter.

Cotto must master fully FM's style of fighting in order to stop him... Miguel should learn how to chase the black city boy snatcher!

The title is perfect, mayweather vs Who. Because I for sure can't find any real fighters on his record. I always hear the, he can only fight who they put in front of him. But I don't consider him anywhere near elite. Same thing with Roy Jones Jr. He was a great fighter who picked bums to showcase his skill. I dont respect any fighter that gets called out for 10 years and refuses to fight. (Bernard chased him for 10 years)
Floyd is going down that same road, but no one is calling him a chic. If you going to move up in weaight and want to be the best then fight the best at that new weight. Judah, (trash), DeLahoya, Old (businessman now), fight Mosley. I know people want to see Cotto, but Mosley hand speed and power would be the perfect match up for Floyd. Cotto would be another Floyd vs Gatti.
But why talk about it. Floyd is a DIVA and will not put his name or record at risk.

you are the crazy. Cotto beat the guy that Beat DLH twice. He also Fought a number of fighter that Floyd has. And Knocked them out. He KO'd Quintana in 5 rounds. Cotto vs Hatton.....thats doesn't even look right. Floyd hasn't officially lost. But Floyd has lost on paper. Statistically he lost to Castillo in the first fight.

The amt of money a fighter makes is somehow equated to how great the fighter is himself. We all know that is not so.

i give all respect to evrybody discussing boxing cuz its my favorite sport, but to read all the comments about mayweather and who can fight him is a big joke. there is nobody out there right now that can beat him. mayweather has fought the best boxers out there in this era, everyone of them and simply beat them because of his skill and ability. he can knock you out and take you all the way. cotto will never be ready for a floyd mayweather. you can not train a boxer to fight floyd because floyd is floyd. gatti was supposed to be the one, tko'd in 6. de la hoya loses a close fight but still another w for floyd. and then the unstoppable ricky hatton. floyd mayweather silenced all his critics with that amazing performance. he ko'd ricky hatton. cotto is good but never good enough. put anyone in the ring with floyd and they will lose. how many times does he have to show you?

Apparently Naz cared, he's the one who asked the question about how much money it was that Hatton made.
