before manny had been knocked unconscious
before cotto had taken a beating against manny, lost to austin freaking trout. he had laready taken the margarito beating
before shane had started to really show his age and had a layoff post margarito. we also didn't know that margs had been loading wraps until the shane fight, and how good mosley looked was in part a mirage.
Nice hit list, unfortunately he fought them all when they were past it.
Pacquiao:Fought him after he Got KTFO, one of the worst KO's in the last 20 years.
Cotto: Took beating against Margarito, then another against Pacquiao.
Mosley: 2 year lay off, past his prime.
It's not a coincidence that the timing of all these fights were ALL too late.

FLoyd is older than manny too lol so not really a legit excuse.
Also when manny was fighting guys like algerie and rios floyd fought maidana twice and canelo,.Last edited by Easy Work.; 05-18-2015, 11:43 AM.

Everyone saying it will never happen understand it's going to be after this list has been made.
The Mosley fight was signed 6 months later. How much sooner could be possibly have fought Shane?
Margarito-Cotto had already happened, Pacquaio-Cotto was already signed. How could Mayweather fight Cotto before these fights?
Floyd made this hitlist and his next 4 fights in succession were names from the list.

Originally posted by IronDanHamza View PostHe lost to Trout after Floyd. And the Pacquaio-Cotto fight was signed when this article was written, one of them had to lose.
The Mosley fight was signed about 6 months after this article was written.
His next 3 fights after this article were Marquez, Mosley, Ortiz and Cotto.
All on the "list".
this is correct. i actaully returned to mention that.
it was within the same stretch of time, however, and they basically fought the same fighter.

so floyd is a "take on all comers" type of fighter now?
floyd was very, very protected for an all time great. his manager, al haymon, pioneered new strategies in protecting fighters in the cable / ppv era. history will look back on this era and acknowledge that.
have you ever noticed how it's always the same people who come into these [mayweather and his little TBE's] threads supporting mayweather? isn't that a bit odd?

One of the best bumps of all time. The BBE!
Floyd will never fight Mosely, because Mosely is a beast again now!! Immediately fights and dominates Mosely after JMM.
Floyd will never fight Cotto, and he will for sure never fight him at his best weight!!! Floyd makes a fight with Cotto at 154 about 10 days after Cotto leaves Top Rank. Good fight with Mayweather getting the wide margin of victory.
Floyd will never fight Pacquaio!!! Fights Pacquaio at 147 and nearly shuts him out. But shoulder injuries...LOL
A couple years later you could add Canelo to this list. His haters were begging him to fight Canelo and said he'd never do it, then he does and schools Canelo and he still gets little credit.
Floyd's resume is complete now, there are no glaring omissions from this era, he has fought 10+ HOFers. He has fought and beaten generations of top fighters from Castillo and Corrales to Gatti and Hatton to De la Hoya and Mosely to Pacquaio and Cotto to Ortiz and Canelo. Anyone he didn't fight of note was blasted by one of the fighters he did fight. Tszyu got smoked by Hatton. Margarito was smoked by Mosely, Pacquaio, and eventually Cotto. Cotto destroyed Sergio Martinez who destroyed Paul Williams.
There is no one left to fight.
