With the exception of JLC 1, where Floyd was in the most trouble he has ever been in, when has he not performed 100%?
pbf has never had a fight where he NEEDED all of his skills throughout the fight....in castillo 1 that was more of floyd thinking that castillo was going to roll over and gie him his belt because floyd was the up and coming champ from 130....
I think you just answered your own question, Floyd Mayweather has never had too use all his skillset while being in 5 different weightclasses. Is incredible and if he is forced to use all his skillset against Shane Mosley. Then wouldn't the smart money be on the fighter, that in your opinion hasn't had to be at 100 percent to win in any fight ?
that's my point...is that what will floyd do when he adapts then has to adapt again and again all while trying to maintain his defense...listen man don't get me wrong, i've said for a long time that PBF is the best since Roy Jones. I've also stated that if he leaves the sports without making fights with cotto and mosley there's no way he can be rated best of his generation. He retired to protect that record and it pisses me off.

I even stated that if they do fight i'd be pulling for floyd because i want to him retire undefeated, but only if he beats the top fighters from his era. He hasn't. There's is also no justification for fighting oscar over shane other than money. or baldomir, or judah, or hatton. Fights with cotto and shane should have happened already. even before they fought each other.
