    It's all a guess, we have no real way of knowing. But I'd think it all depends on what happens in the ring leading up to the KO. If something like what happened to Cotto or Hatton, then he'll probably go into some sort of depression, but knowing the Mayweather's reactions to everything, they see things a little different than the rest of the world so he may have some abstract way of absorbing the loss. If it's something like what happened to Pacquiao in the Marquez fight, e.g. just gets caught with one, then unless he turns completely mental, he should be able to bounce back.

    I've been wondering with so many huge bets on Mayweather if they is any sort of watch on the judges to be selected from fixing the fight on the judges side. I also have to wonder if the Vegas insiders for the Bradley / Pacquiao fight knew something was up and why they gave peoples money back. One can easily see a couple of hundred thousand pooled moneys, to secure bets, could go to a judge's secret account. That kind of temptation would be hard for anyone to not score close rounds in a specific direction.

    You think we might need judges watching the judges?

    Floyd Mayweather will become a doorman at the MGM Grand a little midget with a top hat and cane with 3 girls on each arm all tongue in his ear and hoping to get a ride in his Ford Escort two door hatchback because he will be one broke ass piece of s*** the way he does speed balls and coke and the way he goes through champagne with the prostitutes. Didn't we can watch Adrian bubblegum Broner come to his aid and bail him out

    I would agree based on Mayweather's persona in the media, but has had someone behind him that has taken care in making sure he and his kids is set for his lifetime. If you take a look at county records his properties is are all owned under trust accounts. It basically means they are paid for and no one can touch them. If his properties are in a trust, most likely he has money set aside to make sure is living needs are too. So I doubt you will see any Tommy Hearn's like stories about Mayweather 20 or 30 years from now. Although he may end up in prison or the next OJ story.

    I would rather fight a defeated hatton and a beaten up Moseley than an undefeated hatton and post margarito Moseley for an easy ride...be honest..you would too!
