Floyd Mayweather. A look at his recent opponents

[Violent Demise]

Since Floyd Mayweather has hit the 140’s and above who has he beaten?? Its not that the names on his record are bad it’s just that when you look at it more closely you see that his recent fights really were nothing to give him the credit or rating he has.

Let’s take a look at his last few opponents 140 and above

Demarcus Corley:
Mayweather couldn’t KO him and beat him over 12 rounds. Since then Corley has lost by TKO to Jose Alfor, Lost by UD to Jr Witter and lost by TKO to Miguel Cotto

Henry Bruseles:
This was an elimination bout that was made to keep Mayweather busy and is not worth mentioning. Henry has not really beaten anybody of note before or after this bout.

Shamba Mitchell
Mayweather KO’d him in 4 but Kostya Tsyu had already achieved this and Hatton has already stopped Tsyu and retired him. Which means he was close to retirement when he beat Shamba. Since the Mayweather fight Shamba has been KO’d in 4 by Paul Williams.

Arturo Gatti:
Mayweather steam rolled him. Since this fight he has lost by TKO to Carlos Baldomir and TKO in 7 to Alfonso Gomes(who)

Zab Judah:
Took Mayweather the whole 12 rounds but has just been KO’d by Miguel Cotto

Carlos Baldomir:
Gained the title from over the hill previous light welter Zab Judah just lost UD to Vernon Forrest.

Oscar De La Hoya:
WAY OVER THE HILL
This fight was a joke. Delahoyas size took him so far but he gassed and is a shadow of his former self.

I think Hatton has a much better chance here than I originally thought

I totally disagree you think Hatton has better chance because Mayweather hasn't fought great opposition in his last couple of fights ?? how about doing some research and watching fights like Chavez vs Mayweather Chavez is very similar style to Hatton and Mayweather broke him down and beat hell out of him in the end and case could be made that Hatton struggles with fast handed fighters remember the trouble he had with Collazo ?? your discrediting Floyd here but is Hatton's opposition that much better in his last fights ??


Kostya Tszyu = Just as past it as Oscar.

Jose Luis Castillo = looked terrible in his last fight before Hatton was also past it but it was impressive how Hatton won i give him credit.

Juan Urango = Got a gift decision winning his title and i had never heard of him before.

Luis Collazo = Again i had never heard of this guy before Hatton fight yet alot of people thought he deserved to win Hatton fight and he goes on to get schooled my Mosley.

Carlos Maussa = Hatton was also dropped in this fight i don't have to say about this guy you already know he isn't good yourself.

Ray Oliveira

Michael Stewart = Off the contender who lost in one of the first rounds i believe.



Is this list of opposition really any better than Mayweathers last couple of opposistion ??

Outstanding points. But not what the Hatton groupies like to hear. Hatton has over 40 fights and his biggest wins are against 2 past there prime fighters. The only good fighter he faced in his prime (Collazo) by all rights beat him. Only to watch Hatton punk out on a rematch

Well VD, didnt you say Ricky would be KO'd in 6 by Castillo?? What happened there mr expert? He was shot but that wasnt the usual shit coming from your mouth prior to the fight.

Hatton beat the P4P number 3 and the Ring Belt holder at 140, in his first big fight, and he best Castillo in 4 rnds who was the Rings number 1 Contender, what fuckign more can he do? But its easy to say these fighters are shot after the event.

I gave Hatton credit for the Castillo fight. I did say Castillo would beat him. But that's cuz I ignored the signs that Castillo was done. I've always taught highly of Castillo. Which is why I didn't want to except the fact that he was washed up. But the fight proved he was. Only a fool would say other wise
