"oh man i'm hurt. I can't believe this happened. I'm too good for this. I will prob never fight again." hahahahahahahahahahahah
Yeah this is pretty boy's next opponent. Sure he's young, but i wouldn't want to pay $60 to watch this guy fight. Lots of people are going to waste money for this crap.

Gatti, Baldomir, Castillo, Corrales (first loss), even Hatton were all good fighters that Mayweather fought when they were at the prime of their careers.
As I had said both fighters used to fight everybody but have become a lot more selective of there fight in recent years.
And you still haven't answered why Pacquiao would not take the third fight with Marquez. It was the fight that everybody wanted to see and Marquez was begging him for the fight.
Maybe it was because he was afraid of losing to Marquez, since Marquez was the only person that was providing him with any sort of test at that time.
It couldn't have been because he felt that fighting David Diaz was a more memorable fight, and better career move for him.
And its not that Mayweather is fighting a young stud, although I find it funny that you are bringing up a fight from two years ago to make your point, but the fact that he is actually giving a young guy a chance unlike Pacquiao.
I will give you the fact that Mayweather has shyed away from fighting anybody bigger than him.
