Well you cant say that in Mosley, Margarito, Cotto and others who wanted to fight him at welterweight.
He called Mosely out several times, he ignored it, said he had a tooth ache and all that jazz. He did avoid Maragrito. And he did want Cotto at 140lbs. But Team Cotto declined, it was early in their careers. All of this happened when Floyd was with Top Rank.
They should settle this in the ring. If Pac wins against Cotto and Floyd against JMM then he has no excuses not to fight Pac and we will see if Pac won't last 6 rounds with him. But then Floyd has to gather his heart and balls first to make this fight happen.real talk.
The only reason the fight wouldn't happen is because of Bob Arum. We've heard Floyd say plenty of time he'll fight Pac. Bob Arum has people believing that it's Floyd when it's not. It's Top Rank.
It will look like the truth. It's really hard to say how good is Kessler as it is hard to say how good is Calzaghe because these guys don't fight allot and don't fight top opponents. As long as they don't come here claiming their are p4p fighters or ATG it's their own business and i really don't care. What annoys the shit out of me is when these guy's fans stupid as they are (all green karma though as if that meant shit around here), start saying their favorite fraud fighter would/could beat him and him and him and he's definitely an ATG when the truth is you don't recognize 90% of the names on their resume and if you do it's because they got famous because they got beat by the fighter we are talking about (rendering the argument pointless). And the ones truly famous look like patches for a resume. Oh and these guys value their 0 more than a gay lord inside the closet; as a result they are all undefeated until their late 30 when they usually cashout against some has been American or otherwise legit champion who has seen better days. They don't give out rematches, they lack warrior spirit, they postpone and drop out of fights. If i was white the only possible reason for me to be a fan of one of these people would be their resembling myself but even then i'd be ashamed and quit anyway.
Good Post!
Mayweather is an all around better boxer. Pac is JUST quick, with heart, that's it. When Mayweather unleashes his arsenal, his offense is even better than Pac. May > Pac anyday.
Roy Jones was on another level.
Floyd, Judah, Mosely, Ward, Dirrell are all more athletetic than Pacquiao.
Pacquiao is not that athletic to me. He can't even fight going backwards, just plants his back foot and throws flurries.
Chad will beat Johnson, then Hopkins, then go on a stretch of fighting bums. There is no way in hell I see him going back to 168lbs because I don't think he wants to face constant competition. For every 4 fights, he'll face 1 that's really competitive. PBF all over again.
they must have been better at the time because they held the titles...
Most people are going to look at PRESENT day other than PAST and PRESENT, which makes this thread kind of irrelevant.
Did any of you ever consider the fact that Floyd does`nt want to give Mosley a payday cause mosley been bad mouthing him or Floyd just wants to fight The Cotto/Pacquiao winner first?
Exactly, business sense....
If it does not make business sense, why do it?
No one is going to care about Floyd after he retires, the boxing world will move on. Boxing is his career, so he should try and make as much money as he can while doing it. Anyone with a career understands this. It's just jealousy of his 0.
You still dont get it do you.
You wanna talk about Pac having little skills and that his opponents are handpicked and that Floyd would expose him.
What makes you so sure that Floyd would expose Pac??? Because Floyd is far superior in skill and dominance as witnessed by his fights against......surprise...Sosa, Ndou, Corley, Bruseles,Gatti, and Mitchell. All handpicked opponents. Your bf is nowhere near as good as you think he is. He barely got by with a split decision against Delahoya and went 10 rounds with Hatton, nearly gettin floored in the 1st.
You can talk about overrated and zombies and dehydration all you want but bottomline is Pac breezed through em. Mayweather will beat Marquez but I guarantee he wont look any better than Pacquiao did in doing so.
You are delusional. Pac and May styles are totally different. And yes, he will expose Manny because he is far superior in skill. Name a skilled fighter than Pac is fought since Morales I and Marquez? And we both know how those fights went. I think that Pac has improved to become a better fighter/boxer. But Floyd would "stink his opponent out" and KO Manny. And yes, Floyd opponents were handpicked by Top Rank and Bob Arum not by his trainers and not at catchweights!!!! And there are numerous amount of videos when Floyd says after his fights he wants to fight the best and he does mention names.
Pac breezed thru fighters who showed evidence of not being the same and PBF will look more impressive against Marquez because in the back of his mind, he knows he has to. I'm a fan of boxing and I'd take Mayweather over Pacquiao any day.
I've said all along that Ward is a tough fight for Kessler, and I'll leave it at that.
co-sign. Wards performance win, lose, or draw will shock alot of people.
Pavlik can do that, but he doesn't have the speed or movement to be able to use this to his advantage.
Correct. we won't know who Pavlik is in a couple years from now.
Kessler is the obvious favorite. But I would not count out Ward. The excuse of a fighter "not having any noteable wins" is be becoming overrated. At some point in their career, they all experienced that. One of the Andres will be in the finals.
lol@ him saying Mayweather will beat Pac is "2 or 3 rounds"
:friday:
lol
I'd say 6-7 rounds. May skills would expose Pac worst than Morales did in their first fight.
Who is that in your avatar anyway?? She's drop gorgeous!
If you're talking to me it's model Amber Rose...she has way better photos but I wanted to get the pic with Kanye having a bottle of Henn dog with bad bitch before he snatched the mic from Taylor.
Against Berto, it was a clear robbery. Nothing was close, he outworked Berto all night. Even Berto's dad thought he lost the fight. And Collazo should have won against Hatton also. His only clear lose was to Mosely, and he was fighting with a broken hand.
