So what else you all got?
Oddly, what has not been written or spoken of, to a large degree, is the fact that Floyd Mayweather has also attempted to set up a much anticipated fight between himself and Ricky Hatton prior to signing a deal to fight Baldomir. Hatton reportedly asked for $13 million effectively pricing himself out of a possible showdown with Mayweather. Many fans are beginning to come to the apparent realization that Hatton wants no part of Mayweather. He moved up to 147 lbs. to face lightly heralded WBA champion Luis Collazo and won a controversial decision to win the title.
During his post fight interview, immediately following the fight when Hatton was asked about facing Mayweather, he stated that he needs a few more fights before "fighting the likes of a Mayweather." His actions followed as well, as he abandoned his title and immediately moved back down to 140 lbs., where he'll face another lightly heralded opponent, Juan Urango. Yet, despite these facts and Mayweather's obvious willingness to fight the best, he's still unappreciated and scorned by many.

No goddamn excuses.
