i think Mayweather needs to stop fighting guys smaller than him for a change. Especiallly if he beats manny

the only small guys he has fought in the last 5 years are JMM, hatton (though only 7 pounds step up). You could say Gatti aswell since he isnt a natural light welter

he fought de la hoya at 154, thats amazing. Hes stepped up dozens of weight classes over the years.

He couldn't finish him off when he couldn't shut up on 24/7 about how he always ends the fight if he knocks his opponent down.

Marquez looked terrible. He was off his game the whole night. He seemed to never pressure Mayweather or take a chance with him. Plus he lost a lot of his speed after gaining weight for this fight. I thought Mexican boxers were not suppose to show fear?? Marquez looked intimidated the entire night.

On a final note, I hope Pacman gets passed Cotto so we can see this superfight. If Mayweather backs out, he better fight Mosley.

thos would be the fights i would like to see

Hopefully Mayweather fights Mosley next. It looks like Mosley's fight with Clottey is facing scheduling problems. Maybe by late Jan. 2010, when HBO likes to have a big fight by Super Bowl week. Mayweather did what he was supposed to do but he should of tried to knock JMM out rather than play it safe. As for Pacman he has his hands full with Cotto so it's not a sure win for Pac.

Man not at all. your underestimating Floyd. Floyds one of the greatest fighter ive ever seen, certainly defensively.

Marquez couldnt do anything more. He couldnt fucking hit the guy its a simple as that. Nothing to do with respect. He couldnt of hit him no matter how much respect he couldvve shown.

haha damn mayweather might be the greatest athlete ive ever seen
i cant think of a larger skill gap in sports between the obvious #1 player and the rest of the competition
