Is It Time to Change Mayweather's Moniker to Chicken Boy Floyd?

[Ishy Aytan]

Yep. Mayweather thought Hatton would win and he could snaffle another large payday by beating Ricky up again. LMAO.

You actually are a real big clown. Did you hear Floyd say Hatton would beat Pacquiao?

Please, you just been owned big time.

Show me the link where Floyd says Hatton would beat Pacquiao.

I'll be waiting.

The word out of Las Vegas is that after months of behind the scenes negotiations, Pretty Boy Floyd Mayweather couldn't wait one more day to set up the fight everyone wants to see happen.


The question now is, will this proposed Mayweather/Pacquiao mega-fight ever happen?


And why couldn't Jr. wait one more day.


When Larry Merchant pointed out that Mayweather has always had a sense of "perspicacity" when choosing opponents, I know I wasn't the only one reaching for the dictionary to find out what the word meant.


According to Webster's perspicacity means, "of acute mental vision or discernment."


In other words, Merchant was saying that Mayweather won't fight people he doesn't think he can beat...


Which is why people are wondering if the fight boxing fans around the world want to see more than any other might never actually happen.


Because, for all of Floyd, Jr.'s skill, he probably can't beat Manny Pacquiao at this point in time. Most likely he would have to get on a bicycle just to survive, and no one is going give him points for doing that.


A lot of people think that the money will be too great for Floyd to turn down, but he turned down millions to fight Oscar De La Hoya a second time, and I don't think that fight would have turned out much different than their first battle...which he won going away.


Mayweather tried to steal the Pac-Man's thunder last Saturday and ended up with egg on his face when Manny's total destruction of Hatton so eclipsed his unretirement announcement that most boxing scribes didn't even waste their time to write about it.


Now comes word that the Marquez fight isn't even a sure thing as the two camps continue to argue whether they are fighting at a catch weight of 144 pounds or the full 147 pound welterweight limit.


If that fight doesn't happen PBF, the man who glossed himself the "King" on Saturday will have to grovel like a knave to fight either Sugar Shane Mosley or Manny.


And it's pretty obvious now that Mayweather doesn't really want to fight either of them.


Most likely because he knows he can't beat them. And he for sure can't beat Paul Williams, although I would give him the nod over Miguel Cotto.


So, the ball is in Mayweather's court, and right now it's questionable whether he's the king of his court or just another joker like his Dad.

I agree he runs outside the ring and inside.

Plus many people think he lost to Castillo.

i cant wait for floyd to shut ya;kk up,,,that will be better than x-mas and thanksgiving times 100

man your boy wlad is the chicken...he ****s himself everytime someone gets close to him..haye bitched his ass at the mall..then wlad tried to hide behind vitali..now hes gonna get thats ass beat.....since you constantly wanna **** on floyd who is something wlad will never be...great

Wlad is willing to face all comers in the heavyweight division. Unlike Floyd, he's never ducked anyone.

A "great" fighter doesn't seek boxers in smaller weight divisions for fights, and make them move up to an unnatural weight. If for his first fight back after four years, if Vitali would have tried to get a fight with Calzaghe at heavyweight, what would people say about him?

Great fighters like Leonard, Duran, Robinson and Armstrong never ducked anybody. FLOYD IS NOT A GREAT FIGHTER like those guys.

[Flippin_Money]

Anyone that doesn't give Mayweather any credit for beating the ppl he beat must not know much about him... this is a guy with fragile ass hands (which is why his punching power is underrated) winning fights. He gave Diego Corrales his first loss, he didnt duck him... and when Gatti was in his so called prime, he demolished him in I think 6 rounds (off top of my head), and in a fight boxing experts say was a close fight which in my eyes wasnt, he dominated a 154 lb. De La Hoya with his defensive skills, and he knocked Ricky Hatton out... the man that was supposed to beat him.

I will say that a fight against Mosley would be tough. but I think they're just duckin eachother. And Cotto needs more names under his belt before he can fight someone with the stature of PBF.

yea Wlad should retire now that theres an actual person who might beat him, then he'd be great.

[Vasyl’s dad]

Weak. He's better than Robinson, apparently. Nobody who is better than SRR needs a tune up.

lol, apparently,

Mayweather isn't so good anymore, according to his flock of teenage boys.


He needs a tuneup, against a 2 fight lightweight.


What would Ray Leonard do?

Leonard ducked Pryor...and as far as Wlad that's easy when the heavyweight division is 85 percent bums...

[FMJ The Best]

Nope.

Floyd will have my respect if he fights Cotto, Mosley, Williams or Pacquiao.

As much as I think Wlad is a bore to watch, I agree that he has never ducked anyone.....it was Haye's choice to move up and challenge him.
