Will Mayweather EVER fight a prime great fighter?

Question

Name one great prime fighter that Mayweather has defeated? He does nothing but jump around weight classes to avoid tough fights.

Answer 1

He deat Diego Corrales in his prime

He beat Jose Luis Castillo in his prime (twice)

He beat Zab judah in his prime (just a few months earlier zab judah was the undisputed welterweight champ)

He beat carlos baldomir in his prime as well

he also beat Hatton in his prime- Maywether does not have to drop in weight for hatton, ricky hatton was the challenger and as such it was expected of him to move up in weight, Mayweather is the defending pound for pound king,he does not have to drop in weight for anyone.

Answer 2

ricky hatton was on fire when mayweather beat him

Answer 3

Deigo Corrales was undefeated and hadnt been in those wars that he as known for that usally take alot of steem out of fighters. When Floyd knocked him out in a fight that most people had thought Floyd was going to get knocked out in.

Jose Luis Castillo he had just won a title at lightweight and had defended it 5 times before Floyd beat him. The fight was close but when Floyd won people were supprised so he fought him again and smoked him.

Zab Judah was pretty good when Floyd Beat him. Before you say "well Judah lost to Baldmoir" look at the facts Judah was the undisputed welterweight champion before he fought Baldmoir. The fight with Floyd was signed and Dated and he was looking past Carlos when Zab lost that fight was considered the upset of the year. Still Zab had more juice in his tank before he fought FLoyd than before he fought Cotto. I challgene anybody to name a time when Zab looked better than the time frame from fighting Spinks to fighting FLoyd.

Ricky Hatton was in his prime before Floyd Fought him. Hbo had been Hyping a fight with FLoyd and Ricky For about 2 years but RIcky had turned him down becasue his father (ricky hatton) said he wanted Ricky to get more fights in America then they finally meet and Floyd Knocks him out.

I got a question for you Name one fighter thats fought and beat better guys than FLoyd? You cant becasue Oscar fought better guys but never beat a Top FIghter in his prime. Shane has fought good guys like Floyd but lost to Forrest,Wright,Cotto,. Other than that Who in boxing can you name maybe Hopkins nope he lost to JOnes,Taylor, Calzaghe. There isnt a fighter that has beat more big name opponets than Mayweather. ITs pretty clear you havent done any boxing homework your proably somebody that dosent like him so your bashing him with everyone else.

Answer 4

I cant there is none Corrales jumped up in weight for the first time in his career when he fought that fight. Hatton was also a smaller guy who came up in weight both these guys couldnt handle the jump thats evident in Corrales later fights. And Zab judah was going down hill starting with his fight before with Baldomir. By the way Floyd only got a UD vs Zab and Cotto TKO him. the same could be said for Victoriano Sosa and Demarcus Corley

Answer 5

Mayweather doesn't get credit for Hatton. Hatton is no good at 147. They should have fought at 140.

Answer 6

Well he is going to get a re-match with De la hoya lets see how that turns out.
