    Well you can do the honorable thing and fall on your sword. I mean if your entire concept of boxing exist in the hope of Floyd Mayweather Jr doing something stupid in order to sate the debased thirst of some of our lesser human cognitions, Felo-de-SE is an option.

    Gotta agree... i didn't think mosely was going to do it either, but i've said we just have to swallow that floyd isn't loosing to any of the current people that are " supposed" threats to him. You just never know though, maybe for some insane reason bradley or berto or someone will get lucky down the road and beat him by accident. Pac is pretty much the last guy everyone is resting thier hopes on now......but i say the same happens to him that we saw last night. Ah well.....boxing still goes on.

    Well mosley didn't suffer hist first loss till he was what 35-0 and 32 years old or something...but well then he bumped into vernon forrest, I don't think many people fancied a vernon win, so who knows just because it doesn't seem like there is anyone out there does not mean there isn't...but then again mayweather fights pretty seldom, so wouldn't surprise me if he only had a couple more fights and retired undefeated.

    Your last hope? Wow, funny how much hate you can harbor for someone that doesn't know you exist.

    Let me guess.... you're a philosophy major and frustrated writer, right?
    I think there's a forum for that. It's called the shutthefuckup.com forum.
    I hope that helps.

    Well, it's been said,,, by him (Mayweather), that he fights for Money. Not fame or glory or legacy...

    Our best chance is a giant superstar that is a GIGANTIC drawcard with fans, to emerge above 150 pounds, that can bring GIANT amounts of cash to a fight with Mayweather...
    I believe Mayweather would take risks (although whether they are actual risks is another question considering how good he is), IF those "risks" were worth the money...

    Welterweight for the last 5 years has really been where the attention and money and bulk of talent has been.. If you are on top of WW, you are pretty much assumed to be on top of boxing and P4P lists..
    It's a bit of generalization, but the biggest incentive for Floyd, Money, hasn't been luring from any division above his comfort zone... You can probably name a few fighters above Welterweight that could give Mayweather a good fight (Although Mayweather is impossible to underestimate),,,, but NONE of them have a huge status outside boxing, and none will bring the money that he can get from fighting the fighters he has been..

    But on the other hand, a fight of Mayweather vs a natural 154 pound fighter can be promoted right, it CAN bring in the money.. If Mayweather is as he says, the biggest cash cow in boxing, then it shouldn't matter who he's fighting... The money will follow him... So he may as well take these perceived "Challenges" or "Risks"... Personally I feel it can only help him,,, but what I think will help him and what he thinks will help him are totally different things...

    Pac is my personal last hope.. I always believed he has a better shot than Pac, but the way Mayweather takes away parts of his body as targets so effectively, even in close, I don't think Pac can do it..

    I believe in him more than Mosley though...

    Good points all.

    It's funny... I go to great pains to give PBF his props. But I just happen to mention some negative things, and I get labeled a "hater". Seems there is no middle ground with Floyd fans. Either you love him, in which case you're alright... or you're a hater, and don't know anything about boxing.

    So if I ha-a-a-a-ve to choose.... hmmm....
    I guess I'll be a hater.
