Thing is if PAC beats Cotto, Mayweather is in another lose/lose situation in facing PAC. Either he loses to a smaller man OR he beats yet another smaller man. If he fights Mosley and he wins, he has beat an over the hill Mosley. The only fights that Mayweather gets credit for are Cotto IF he beats PAC or Paul Williams IF he can still make 147.
Agree to a certain extent, however he would be a little more justified in saying that a fight with Pac was effectively by public demand which would be true so the fact he is smaller wouldn't appear as relevant.
Mosley , well he could say if he beats him "he called me out i knew i would get him " blah blah again he would be justified in answering a call out.
The other two options are the preferred in terms of an honest fight and a test for him.I would like to see Williams if as you say he can make the weight, but then what does weight matter these days !!!

Marquez called out Floyd as well though, Floyd said this was a tune-up fight, Marquez took the money and agreed to fight on Floyd's terms. Let's be honest here there is very little Floyd could do to not have any excuses made for his victories save the two I mentioned. The fact that PAC is smaller would most definately become relevant after the fight, there is no way you could think that if PAC were to lose to Mayweather the weight issue would not be brought up. Same with Mosley you really think if PBF beats Mosley the age thing won't get brought up?

For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
