Gerard323 (U12287537) posted Jun 11, 2008 All true fight fans would agree that Floyd Mayweather was the best boxer of his generation. Watching him dismantle Hatton live in Vegas is without question my most memorable moment in the sport to date. There was absoultely no shame in Hatton losing to Mayweather that night - and Hatton himself will rightfully join the Hall of Fame when he eventually bows out - but he was up against someone who put on a masterclass of a performance. Get the DVD, watch round 8 and you will know what I'm talking about. posted Jun 11, 2008 I'm sick of seeing this Cotto/Mayweather argument. The simple fact of the matter is, Cotto doesn't have the class, speed, fitness or agility to cope with Mayweather.

Qwik23 (U9852273) posted Jun 13, 2008 Shame he's retiring so young and some could argue at hes peak. But with £100 million in the bank may be he thinks it's time to start enjoying it. That aside, I agree - he'll be back as there's some things money can't buy and Mayweather is a boxer before anything else. Entering other business enterprises or just spending cash will never repalce the blood, swaet and tears of boxing. But good luck to him and I think all boxing fans owe him a thank you for what he has bought to the sport and admire what he has acheived.
