Boxing Perspective: Is Floyd Mayweather Jr Looking To Become Another Cliche?

[JT Rock]

I dont know Kel it would be so huge. Surley its tempting to him it would seal up everything for ever, I think Floyd would study and out smart Manny and catch him comming in and screw with his timing. I dont think he fears Manny, if he does, then why Marquez ?

For what it's worth I agree. I see Floyd handling Pacman pretty decisively. I never thought Floyd feared anyone; maybe if I had to pick one I'd say Williams, but Paul was high risk low payout because he had no marketability behind him at the time and maybe still doesn't shameful as that is.

But there is no one else he fears{if he even did in some way at all with Williams} and easy work with all of them except Paul, maybe. Some people say he left due to fear; I think it's more due to disdain of the comp. and getting bored; though I know I'm stretching my opinion a bit far on that one.

Well, I think Cotto Floyd or Mosley Floyd would make more than a Marquez fight and add much more to his resume. The thing is, Cotto and Mosley are more dangerous than an old blown up lightweight.

His fear....is of losing most probably, not of dangerous fighters. His ego could not take a defeat because all his talk and self hype is based around being undefeated. Just like Naz.

Different engine in this car all together brother. Naz was a SUPER mouthy gifted athlete who couldnt hold a candle to Floyds resume. Naz was a flawed fighter who got exposed by a great tactician.

Floyd is a superior fighter compared to Naz. Floyd has never showed a chink in his armor or any vulnerability. Whole different mindset goes with that

Yeah but........ok bad example with Naz I may have been breathing in someones crack fumes there

Thing is, I would still say a loss would do his ego no good and he would struggle to come back from one. Cotto or Shane would have been a bigger fight though and a great win over a top Welter is something he needs IMO
