From the conference call for the Cotto-Mosley card:
Would Floyd Mayweather, the dancing star, fight Miguel Cotto or Shane Mosley? And I think the answer there would generally be in the negative.
Mayweather’s only fighting guys he can beat. Mayweather never would fight Margarito, you know that. He won’t fight Mosley – you know that. He won’t fight Cotto. So forget Floyd Mayweather.
Not sure if you noticed but the "real boxing fans" all think you're a clown.
I concur. Nobody respects him and the only people that agree with him are those who do it just to disagree with somebody else.
the real boxing fans know mayweather fears the pressure these men bring because they are bigger than him and have real welterweight power.
already moved on to the next " will beat Mayweather" talk? weren't you just saying Ricky would beat Floyd with that so called pressure 3 days ago? :owned:
Its easy to knock a guy for only fighting guys he can beat when he can beat anybody out there. This means that anybody he fights is a "guy he can beat". Arum is trash.
yeah I mean technically since no one can beat Mayweather, he SHOULD retire, which he might do
LOL

Im pretty sure he just fought DLH, which was an even money fight for the most part, and now hes fighting Hatton, an undefeated, 2 division champion.
He has called out Mosley numerous times, and Cotto's camp has never shown an interest in a Floyd fight up to this point.
And Arum wants Floyd to fight a 5 loss one time alphabet champion???
:lol1: :lol1:
Looks like Arum is getting older, and its showing.:lol1:
Mayweather was over a 2-1 favorite against DLH, not close to even money.
And he was nearly a 3-1 favorite over Hatton, and nobody gave Hatton a prayer.
Arum wants Floyd to fight an undefeated fighter who has beaten all the guys Floyd should have. He dominated Judah and he beat Mosley convincingly.
If in 10 years, i look back on Floyds record, and theres nobody on that list after Ricky Hatton, he doesnt get near an ATG list.
it aint a joke its the truth and if u didnt have floyd so far up your ass it would hurt less
its the truth only in a universe no bigger than yorue own mind as well as like minded morons.
that doesnt change the fact that he is way overrated any other black marathon runner could take his place like spinks or p williams gettin so many titles isnt hard when u handpick ur opponents
I really hope this is a joke, because I cant imagine that there are people this retarted who watch and enjoy boxing.

will any of you people that are calling for floyd to fight mosley, cotto, williams, margarito or anyone else actually give him any credit if he does fight and win against these fighters? I know most of floyd's hate has been earned through his arrogance but i can already hear the reasons why he still isn't any good: hatton is a good fighter at 140 not 147, cotto has no defense and is overrated, williams isn't that great he is just tall and active, margarito is a bum he has already lost like 6 times including a lackluster preformance against williams, and finally if he fights mosley like most people want to see it will be floyd ducked mosley until mosley was too old to compete. i think floyd is right that the critics are his hardest fight but at the same time he is the one that started that fight.
floyd brought it all on yourself, youre right, the same way jones did in his time,boxing critics and fans are some of the hardest to please because the best dont always fight each other like in other team sports, where the best teams usually do, except college football where have 10000000 what if matchups.

Paul williams, Corey Spinks neither resemble mayweather nor fight like him, the only thing they have in common is that their black.
:rofl:
williams throws like a zillion punches per round.
cory and floyd fight nothing like paul.
that doesnt change the fact that he is way overrated any other black marathon runner could take his place like spinks or p williams gettin so many titles isnt hard when u handpick ur opponents

what you probably dont know is that 3 years ago before the gatti fight etc cases were being made on here for floyd to be number 1, infact, floyd was thought of as one of the most underrated fighters on the planet until the stature he has now went into effect, dont be a revisionist.
mayweather was already highly thought of before he was given the mythical title of p4p king.
he may have been less known, but he certainly was not "underrated" among boxing people before hopkins lost to taylor, giving floyd this ridiculously blown out of proportion title.

funny fact about the Gatti fight. Mayweather's camp was calling Gatti a "Tier 2" fighter. this is BEFORE the fight too.
Damn i know this is gonna piss off alot of floyd fans. I say floyd should fight the winner of Cotto and Mosely to eliminate this accusation. But I have a feeling if Shane wins floyd will not be interested cause he will feel that the money probably wouldn't be good enough.
that is the truth though,
i know its only a way of hyping fighters so they can add some value to their name thats why it only has credibility in the us it made hopkins and rjj slightly better but it pretty much made the whole career of mayweather jr his style is so boring people just cheer for him cuz he is the "best" those same people will be cheering for the next p4p chump when mayweather is done
boxing fans already knew mayweather was a top fighter before all that p4p junk.
now he gets more backlash because he is annointed the "p4p king". the whole p4p argument has gotten way out of hand. it's a mythical title and a marketing tool, but people argue it seriously like it can be proven who's #1 pound 4 pound.
and floyd is not consistently boring.
