Did Kosta Tsyzu fight on after Hatton or something??? I seem to remember he never cameback to boxing after losing his crown to Hatton(Mandatory)....Your logic is flawed..
Corrales beat casamayor and Mayweather fought him and beat then moved to 135 to fight castillo all those fight under Bob Arum..So again your logic is flawed.
what the **** where did you find out casa v corrales and then corrales v pbf! 2003 casa beat corrales and 2004 casa lost a SD! pbf should fight casa... at 2001 pbf beat corrales asshole. learn first your history moron.
pbf is the best at sfw and lw. kostya is the name in boxing lower weights.
my post flawed?? learn boxing history.. tsk tsk.
hatton v kostya not been a bout if pbf challenge kostya instead fighting 3
beatable guys out there, 3 fights in lightwelter 2005.
SSM. he has called mayweather out on plenty occuasions. but for some reason floyd stans only remember shane saying his tooth loose. when in the same interview he says he will fight him early the next year b/c he wont be able to train & lose the weght properly. he didnt want to rush to lose it & come in the fight weak. which means regardless of the tooth ssm was taking the rest of that year off. he been calling out floyd ever since.
cotto never sad he wanted to fight floyd he would just say "i'll fight whoever arum puts in front him". but floyd never answered any cotto questions.
p will wasnt big at the time.
pacman is only now in a position to get that.
In fairness Both Mosley and Mayweather called each other out, I wouldnt say they ducked each other i just think the timing for the fight was never right, When Mayweather called out Mosley he had to fix his tooth and he told Mayweather to go and fight Margarito then it was he going on a vacation with his family.
Mosley called out after Mayweather fought De la hoya and mayweather fought Hatton then annouce his retirement

corrales was ONE fight.
casa and freitas was top ranked (1-4) from 2000-2002.
mayweather had 5-6 fights during that time at 130.
just because he fought corrales doesn't excuse it. it was 1 fight out of many he had at 130.
(1) He was under Bob Arum
(2) you dont fight everyone in a top 5 list
He didnt just fight Corrales he fought Carlos Hernandez,Jesus chavez and Gennaro hernandez at age 21.
You cant deride Pacman for only fighting Diaz at lightweight when there was about 5 better and available fights there.
But he still fought the top guy in corrales which means more, Had he fought casa then people would said he avoid the puncher/killer in corrales, You can win in boxing and there would be someone that boxers didnt fight.
Kosta fought Hatton because he was he's mandatory and was offered crazy money by Frank warren(Hatton's promoter) before then he was out for 18months with injuries...

I was talking about before Kostya retired. And sure hate will blind us when we have a boring fighter who talks so much smack and the only way to beat him is to become him, which is sad... Or be like Oscar and outjab him, but I'm not sure did Oscar have the reach? Is that why he was able to outjab floyd.
Before Kosta retired he lost to Hatton,Kosta did come out of retirement or show any interest in fighting on so yea thats blinded-hate, I dont care for smack talk thats for the girls to argue about...I rather talk about when they fight in the ring not who said what outside of it.
Yes my thing is he could have fought Margarito as well but i think he avoid him TBH.
he could have fought casa and freitas. casa and acelino were ranked right behind corrales and floyd for a couple of years at 130.
kostya and floyd was in negotiations but by that time kostya was on his last legs. kostya took the ricky fight because ricky was more money than floyd. not really floyd's fault there.
my main disappointment has to be marg. marg was #1 for a long time and never got a shot.

The subject title says it all.
Manny Pacquiao. Now Pac has to fight Cotto instead to deprive PBF of big money, forcing PBF to fight Mosley. Pac vs. PBF will be early next year instead.
ive seen countless videos of floyd calling out tzsyu...... if the fight was never made, then it wasnt mays fault
i think the plan was for tszyu-mayweather after hatton-tszyu.
obviously kostya lost so the fight never happened.
ricky was more money than floyd at the time so can't blame kostya.
kostya (even though he was old and past his best) could have beat ricky if it wasn't for the hometown ref.
your saying history lets turn back time.
floyd fought
at light welterweights
2004-DeMarcus Corley light welter
2005-Henry Bruseles, Arturo Gatti, Sharmba Mitchell light welter
why the hell shamba? he is beaten by kostya 2 times.
you know why not kostya? coz of his uncle was beaten by kostya too!
hatton and kostya fought 2005!!! hatton is a bad hugger/clincher fighter.
at welterweights.
baldy is a soft handed guy like a stagnant water. fighting gatti and zab means hes legit one to the ring?? zab
