The Mayweather double standard.

[Rantcatrat]

Take into account Mayweather called out Shane and Cotto, so let's leave them out of the equation; beat Zab (who is now considered a bum but was undisputed welterweight champ) and beat Oscar at 154 no less who else was there for Floyd to fight at Welter at the time?

Paul Williams Although a huge threat, was green and a no name, Berto was unheard of or was and still is very green, so that leaves Margarito as the only option who I agree Floyd could have/ should have fought (Although retrospect makes his choice appear a good one).

Leaving aside the argument about what he should have done in the past, his choice for his last fight and for his next fight leave something to be desired. After he beat Hatton, but before he retired, boxing fans everywhere, pbf fans or not, wanted him to fight Mosley, Cotto, or Margarito (Williams wasn't there yet). Then he retired. Now, he unretires. Yet, instead of fighting any of the above-mentioned boxers, he chooses to fight a blown up light weight, at 147. That is disappointing. And who is his next potential opponent? Probably Manny Paquiao, again at 147. Basically, a welterweight ending his career fighting a junior welterweight, a lightweight, and another lightweight (although Manny may naturally be a 140 fighter), and not fighting one legitimate welterweight, of which there are at least 4 that are worthy.

I agree with a lot of what you have said, I want Mayweather to fight Moseley (I think Moseley could win if the fight is soon) but what I do not think is that Mayweather is ducking Moseley, nor has he ever ducked Moseley! Moseley has called out Floyd when it's suitable for him, and Floyd called out Shane when it was suitable for him! it's all money in reality and not ducking!

Am I dissapointed Floyd is not fighting Shane? Yes, Do I think he should fight Paul? No; paul is to big my point is not if he should fight these people or not though it's that all of this ducking and double standard nonsense and stupid claims annoy me.

Fair enough - the ducking rumors are complete nonsense. It's about money and contract terms.

Floyd needs to fight the natural welterweights. He came out of retirement and again chose to fight a smaller man. I don't dislike Floyd as a fighter, but as a fan, he hasn't taken a challenging fight in a while, and it is wrong to always fight smaller men at your natural weight. He should fight other men who share that natural weight.
