The Mayweather double standard.

[Taeth]

Floyd always says "Who has he fought/beaten?"....well who the fuck has Floyd beat?!?!?

He didn't WANT to fight Miguel Cotto, he didn't WANT to fight Paul Williams, he didn't WANT to fight Antonio Margarito.

Floyd is extremely skilled but hell Roy Jones fought better guys than he has!

Margarito is a joke, please stop using him as a valid opponent for Mayweather to duck, and Floyd knew he was a joke without any credibility. If Mayweather had outboxed Margarito for 12 rounds similar to Mosley without the knockout he would have been given no credit and people would have complained that he ran all night. As for Cotto, Mayweather was tied up with Hatton and Oscar De La Hoya, and before that Cotto wasn't truly in the picture as competition. IMO Cotto didn't deserve a shot until he beat Mosley which was a month before Mayweather fought Hatton. People are still ignorant to the fact that Mayweather and Cotto never had the oppertunity to fight eachother. Mayweather wanted a breather. If Mayweather legitimately retires without facing one of the three Cotto, Mosley and/or Berto then there is some validity. I think if he fights JMM and Pacquiao, he should still face one of those three if any of them are at the top by the end of this year.

The ironic thing is its so hard for guys like MAyweather and Whitaker to move up compared to Pacquiao, RJJ, and some other guys because Mayweather and Whitaker have a lot less punching power. If you have blinding speed and the power to hurt somebody then you can fight a totally different fight than if you are know you can't stop somebody and you will have to box intelligently. Mayweather and Whitaker are boxing genius' and I just hope MAyweather gets the same credit Whitaker got when he's done his career.
