Mayweather should fight on and take on Cotto and Margarito who I believe that both have what it takes to beat him!
I too picked Floyd to win but let me ask you this since you said you knew.

Did you know that Floyd was going to hit once and then Hug as much as he did?
Did you know Floyd was going to duck and duck and duck below the waist and then come up under Hatton's armpit over and over again?
Did you know Floyd was going to do a lot of hugging?
Did you know Floyd was going to use that elbow so blantanly?
Did you know Joe Cortez was going to be all over Ricky Hatton? All over Ricky hatton because of what people say Hatton is guilty of in one or two fights? All ove Ricky Hatton to the point that Ricky was not able to do anything right and no matter what illegal move Floyd used, it was ok with Cortez because he was so focused on what Ricky might do.
Did you know Floyd was going to be throwing wild punches and missing this much?
Did you know Floyd was going to look more like Zab Judah rather than a pound for pound king?

I honestly thought Floyd had more fight game than this but Floyd looked terrible against a midget.

I agree with you. I think Cotto and Margarito can mop Floyd.

Again I said Floyd would win but I never thought Floyd would look this sloppy doing it.
Blah blah fucking blah...you take a damn near virtuoso performance from Floyd and turn into another excuse to slate him. A defensive/offensive masterclass. Was it perfect? No, you're right..but that speaks volumes about how good he really is.
Guess what though? You're not the first person to do that...all of his opponents pick holes in all of his fights too and claim to be the next one to dethrone him. It's not gonna happen..putting Margarito in the same sentence as Floyd is a travesty and Cotto will get eaten. (Granted he has the best shot at beating Floyd but that still doesn't count for much)
