I don't think Floyd fights for belts - he won't pay the sanctioning fees.

Honestly, the welterweight division ain't all that deep right now. It's become more of a wasteland like the middleweight division. What's he going to do - beat Jackewitz and Aydin and Jo Jo Dan?

Maywather does like to fight guys coming up in weight though (Marquez, Hatton, Ortiz), and, given the lack of comp. 147, it wouldn't all that impressive, if he cleaned out the division. It'd more impressive if he beat a top guy at 154, but I would support cleaning out the division too even if it's weak. I don't believe a boxer needs to jump up in weight to prove himself if he can dominate his own division. It would nice to see Mayweather fight more than once a year for starters.

Fighting Pac would silence a lot of people.
