this reminds me of the time when mayweather called matthew hattons team to think about arranging a fight. The flock of flomos suddenly vanish from the site and only a few remain...
I would like to hear their thoughts on the latest development, no doubt somehow they will try to twist this as pac being on peds and floyd doing what is right for boxing.
I dont eat sleep and breath one fighter nor do i spend every single post defending him.
I dont hang off of every single word, press release, press conference, and bootleg interview a fighter gives. Whereas you morons are ready to make 20 threads in 2 days over ppv numbers and who didint get an extra 2 percent in a fight purse. fukk all that.
Floyds side has generally been silent, his team has virtually no quotes.
Let me guess, floyd fans should flood the board with
"FLOYD IS THE REAL FIGHTER OF THE DECADE"
"PAC IS SCARED TO TAKE A TEST WITH NO CUTOFF DATES"
"IS FLOYD THE GOAT?"
Its not like floyd has the advantage of being a media darling like a certain filipino hero, nor does floyd have his own press corp of daily dickriders in his own country.
Think about this
we had a comment thread for manny receiving the FOTD from joe frazier, then we have another about how thrilled he is to receive it from him, then we have freddie roach talking about how floyd is getting knocked out, then we have this and that and the other, literally everyday from pacquiao.
Did you ever stop to think that mayweather doesnt have a circus of hangers on, advisors, lawyers and cocksukkers watching his every fukking move?
Of course Hatton couldn't handle Margarito at 147...I meant in general...Hatton has achieved far more...
Yea, Hatton wasn't top 2/3 or even top 5 but he was on lists...Margarito wasn't close to being on a list...and of course most importantly(to Floyd) fighting Hatton makes $en$e...
plus it was a case of unfinished business from floyd's 140lbs days. anyway, on topic, i'm fairly certain floyd is bluffing. haven't been able to muster the motive to post in nsb as frequently lately though.
theres nothin much to say. he is proly bullshittin. but with that said, if he isnt he lost me as a fan.
nyways, we'll see. i really dont think floyd is retiring for another 2 yrs. that makes no sense at all...if he does i might have to question his intelligence and the intelligence of his advisors.
Hatton was never 2/3 P4P. Why did Marg have to be?
And, at 147 Hatton was not better than Marg.
I shutter to think what marg would do to Hatton at 147.
My Goodness that would of been brutal. Plaster or no plaster it would of been horrible for Hatton at 147.

If Marg was top 2/3 Pound for Pound I think the fight could be arranged...I think the main problem was Arum...
I think Hatton's a better fighter than Margarito anyway...

Posting to find my way back to bump when Floyd signs next fight.
You have to be beyond dumb to think he will retire for 2 years at 32 based on a brief comment to some jackass journalist at grant-a-wish day.
You think Hatton is better than Margarito at 147? Seriously?
Not at 147...in general? Yes...Hatton's resume is better...Margarito's resume consists of Cotto, some weak contenders, and that guy that likes to leap out the ring...

Bro, Margarito was never going to get a shot. Never.... Floyd never had any intentions in fighting Margarito.
Marg lost to P-WIll after Floyd beat Oscar, then Floyd fought Hatton. Even if Marg would of beaten P-Will. Hatton would of been the easier, bigger money fight. And, Marg would of beaten P-Will then Marg would of fought Cotto instead of Shane fighting Cotto in November 2007

I don't know...He seemed to have a good shot at Floyd back in Nov 2006. Both sides agreed to the terms of that particular fight according to Arum, but it was a two fight deal and Floyd didn't like the money in the second fight and the bad blood seemed to ruin everything.
Just thinking of this makes me wonder where Floyd would be if he beat Margo, then Cotto and then Hatton instead of Baldomir, Oscar and then Hatton.
wait and see if he does officially retire then this thread might make sense. IMO its just a ploy to help the negotiations go smoother, im pretty sure he'll fight again this year
If Margarito didn't lose his belt to Paul Williams maybe he would have got his shot...
And we all know the fighter Floyd came back for...

margo called him out in public and even faced him man to man at a party, floyd said he would fight margo when he got scared and started stuttering.
the talk of cotto and/or margo would have came up huge as well, he came back when cotto lost and margo lost as well so he didnt have to fight them

Chill out dude, he hasn't retired yet. If he signs to fight Pac or Martinez you going to be looking stupid.
Why not just wait and see how everything plays out?
Make this thread if he does officially retire.
Actually he was scheduled to give DLH a rematch and then retired...before Cotto and Marg fought....

when there was talk of mayweather having to fight margo or cotto he retired very quickly after beating a light welter. now he gave insane demands to the pacman, I guess he didnt expect him to accept so now floyd is voicing about retiring. he has done it before so he will do it again
