How about Cotto on Saturday night? What a performance...and what a disappointing waste. IF he had Freddy Roach in his corner against Mayweather, it would have been a different story.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. Should Not Underestimate Andre Berto: Bernard Hopkins
August 26 “The burden is not on Berto, he has nothing to lose. But if Floyd Mayweather is not respecting who he’s facing, he becomes more vulnerable. As they say, the defense attorney doesn’t have the burden of proof—it’s the DA. Look at the DA as being Berto and Mayweather being the defense in defending his legacy, his title and his ‘0.’”

Unbeaten but unappreciated
Floyd Mayweather Decisions Berto in Last Fight to Remain Unbeaten

Unbeaten Floyd Mayweather Jr. improves to 49-0 with a unanimous-decision victory over former champion Andre Berto (30-4) tonight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

Mayweather thanked God and the fans for the victory and added that Berto has heart.

"My career's over. It's official," Mayweather said in the ring. "You've got to know when to hang it up."

Absolutely!! While it wasn't the best fight I've ever seen, Tyson Fury definitely brought his 'A' game.

Been behind in my watching but this was goody on 12-12-15 a real nice battle with Olympic Gold Medalist Anthony Joshua vs Dillian Whyte. put some pride back in the HW division after the last one.

Conor McGregor vs Floyd Mayweather

So this is why people fight Money.....Well the smart ones.

Conor Is just the Smartest one getting this deal. Floyd has worked 20 years and made this kinda bucks already. Conor got himself a 1000% raise over his last fight.
Has Floyd slowed down ? age comes fast in this sport.

How can Conor win ?
My advise would be for him to watch the Marcos Maidana fights. make it ugly like those fights. not likely Floyd will hit him hard enough to knock him out. not with Floyd's hands at this stage. it's why he hasn't ko'd anyone paying attention since 2007, even then it was a overweight Ricky Fatton a super lightweight all his life going up for the $$$$.
So keep the pressure up, work the body the first 5 rounds heavily. these strong body blows will keep Floyd moving away and not of any danger with his punches.

If Conor can do the above this could be interesting.
