So If Brandon Rios beats Manny Pacquiao.....

No I said he's probably closer to Margarito than Broner is to Floyd though.....that's undeniable. Broner and Floyd, HUGE gap. Rios and Margarito, maybe a slight gap in terms of ability. Margo could cut the ring off better plus his size was trouble for anyone in this ww era had a better jab to if you ask me. And a better chin.

True it is speculation. But of the names mentioned there are documented articles from nearly every reputable boxing and sports sites detailing the real reasons why the fights didn't happen before floyd "retired." Posters like mak feigning anger over it is complete BS!!! He's a bitter manny fan. Plain and simple. This C u n T fights for floyd til the death! haha fawking hilarious! LEAVE FLOYD ALONE! HAHHAHA

Whether or not people thought it was real is irrelevant, he stopped fighting...and you dont know exactly why he retired...its all speculation, not fact. Again its a possibility it was all a huge 5 year plan to make money, but its also a possibility he didnt want to take on a hot division....is all I'm saying True it is speculation.

When floyd annouced his retirement no one thought it was real. You dont have to agree with what he did to understand why he did it.

how was the zab manny fight? what about manny guzman? what about manny and younger mosley? what about manny and margs at 147? I can go on. Yeah but with floyd you just pull **** out the air. i guess you wanted manny v clottey. floyd nor manny fought everyone I wanted. but you whine and ****ing moan only about floyd because you love ****ing manny. You settle for a washed up Morales rather than the Raheem that beat him. Way to lower your standards for your ****ing idol. The mods let you get over and I have no control over that. go back to posting pics of manny and disabled people and making jokes. Hold your hero to the same standard you hold floyd. A lot of anger in this post you must really love Floyd.

Hahaha Margarito would of battered Rios

Hindsight can alter how we see things. Of course this is a possibility..but its an awfully convenient one and it doesnt smell right to me. You can't point to Floyd's pocket book for everything.

i think floyd and his team did what ray leonard did, although its clear floyd's hand injuries were not as severe as ray's detached retina. I think floyd and his team took pages from TR's playbook and used them to make floyd a ****load of money. Hindsight can alter how we see things.

Manny didnt give me ONE fight...he gave me wars with everyone else...no fight was derailed Floyd didnt give me: im not even gonna list all the fvcking names he's somehow avoided...you know the story...and you've accepted it... Did Floyd fight everyone you wanted? Dunn: no, but he sure made a lot of money and that makes me happy queer how was the zab manny fight? what about manny guzman? what about manny and younger mosley? what about manny and margs at 147?

It would be a completely one sided beating. I'd rather see Floyd fight someone else.

you really believe this? i think floyd and his team did what ray leonard did, although its clear floyd's hand injuries were not as severe as ray's detached retina. I think floyd and his team took pages from TR's playbook and used them to make floyd a ****load of money.

thank god you're on ignore...took a quick peek to see what you were piping about and no surprise...praising Floyd because he made money instead of giving fight fans what they wanted...i used to think there was hope for you as poster...too bad you turned full f@gg0t like Floyd manny didn't give you the fight you wanted either. I don't see you blaming him. They are both gamblers. your just ****ing crying because floyd's gamble worked better than manny's.

Rios and Margarito, maybe a slight gap in terms of ability. You based it on resumes. Margarito has wins over Martinez, Cotto, Clottey, Cintron. What's Rios' best win? Mike Alvardo? Margarito is infinitely better than Rios in every way. But I know what this is.

But back to the Thread topic.. No one hear thinks that Brandon gives Mayweather any problems?? No faith in Bam Bam?? I never use this term but if he wanted to, floyd would actually "gatti" Rios. I have no doubt.

I actually think Williams would have beaten Mayweather. I don't. But Floyd still wouldn't have fought him. High risk damn near zero reward. **** Eben Shane didnt wanna fight him. And Shane fights everyone. Including ppl he had no chance of beating, like winky.

PAC wasn't there and he really didn't miss out in much with mosely IMO. But the other three are legit aktho Floyd would have never fought Paul Williams. I actually think Williams would have beaten Mayweather.

thas because Brian is a respected journalist who knew tha floyd and zab had a deal signed previously. Floyd fans call it "hating"-a poor word choice- because when you know the answer to a question before you ask it and act like there is a different reason your objectivity is rightly questioned. A deal signed? The fight was mooted but how do you know it was signed? Doesn't make sense especially considering Mayweather went on to say that they tried to fight Baldomir.

I 100% agree, I'm a Floyd fan, but Im not in denial, he basically skipped out when things got tuff. There was Pacquiao, Williams, Cotto, Margarito, "Younger" Mosley. PAC wasn't there and he really didn't miss out in much with mosely IMO. But the other three are legit aktho Floyd would have never fought Paul Williams.
