Re: who should mayweather fight next??
I voted other... The IRS by 1st round KO.
Re: who should mayweather fight next??
I guess he should fight Hatton again (oh yes, and beating Hatton in one round would be enough to dethrone Pacman on P4P seat) , or dela hoya again (he will think twice with this one I guess).
If that doesnt work then he should have a rematch with Marquez and prove he can knock the guy out in late rounds
;D

Yes it's his game plan you may call it, but Hatton lost because he's to darn occupied chasing PBF and eager to KTFHO he lost focus.

Fuck off, Hatton lost the BOXING match because he isnt as good a BOXER as Floyd. He lost focus cos everytime he tried something he got punched in the face. Floyd would have beaten Hatton 99 times out of 100.
Floyd stood toe to toe with plenty of guys when he was fighting in the smaller divisions, if u cared to watch those fights. Do u even know he fought in lower divisions? As he moved up in weight he was mainly fighting guys with more power so had to box more. There is a difference between being chicken and being smart. Floyd is smart in the ring.
The sport is fucken boxing, not slugging or banging its boxing. The guys who win are generally the best boxers. There are guys who win fights through great defense, not everyone can be big punch KO artists. If u wanna see guys just throw hay makers go watch redneck tough man contests.
I'm one of those who were never convinced he is great. Sugar Ray Leonard wont beat him at WW, even Duran will be frustrated with his antics and say "no mas", KO artist like Hearns will be chasing wind with PBF and lost.
But i can't rate him higher than the three i've mention.

Spade you are insane if you think SRL and Hearns could not beat Floyd, first he would not fight them as they were too dangerous and secondly they would massacre him. Duran yes may be but Floyd would not beat a peak Tito, Shane or ODH.

Why dont u say lets see Pac or Cotto try out box Floyd without throwing big punches and see how they go?
PBF has worked out a winning formula and is sticking with it, u cannot blame him for that.
He always play it safe, sometimes you have to show the world he can stand with anybody by not playing chicken. He always comes clean after the fight cause PBF has no guts sticking his chin.

Thank you - Some fuckin idiots don't realise that Mayweather has been in his fair share of wars.
If he needs to, he can stand and trade. You wanna know how Floyd handles adversity? Check him out against DeMarcus Corley - Buzzed and hurt at the beggining of the round, he composes himself and beats the living daylights out of Corley for the rest of the round.
Check out his fight against Emmanuel Augustus/Burton - He got stuck in and traded.
If you hurt Floyd, he is hurting you back twice as bad. A good example was when Marquez landed in the 2nd round. Look what happened?
He is not the pussy, some people think.

Come on, he would destroy Tito peak or otherwise!
Shane or ODH would be tough though
Re: who should mayweather fight next??
I'm not a big fan of Floyd Mayweather's style, but he is the best right now. I just never really enjoyed the ultra defensive styles of the SRLs and Sweet Pea types, but I do appreciate and admit that they are all/were elite fighters.
I wish the best for all boxers though and hope Mayweather gets the biggest money fight out there. He's the biggest draw out there right now so it's ultimately up to him.
I think the winner of Pac/Cotto will be the best money move while still be a good choice for fight fans.
Re: who should mayweather fight next??
Pac/Cotto. This story line needs to play out. This over all else and it isn't even close.
