    You people...I mean, seriously!

    You need TWO people to make a fight. Floyd has been called out by many fighters but they've all either priced themselves out of the fight (like Ricky Hatton wanting $13 Million to fight Floyd when Floyd didn't even make that much himself when he fought DLH!) or there are better fights out there (such as Margarito...Floyd was waiting on Mosley to fight Vargas and then he tried to get that fight but Mosley had a toothache, remember? Then PBF chose to fight the UNDISPUTED Welterweight Champ, as opposed to the WBO champ, for the same paycheck).

    As for other fighters out there (Williams, Cotto, and Mosley), none have really tried to make a fight with Floyd (Mosley complained about his tooth and then was waiting for his buddy, DLH, to fight PBF).

    Floyd has fought all the top fighters WHO WERE WILLING to fight him. You cannot blame Mayweather for not fighting someone who did not want to fight him.

        Yeah it's a shame that both Hatton and Mosely talked about fights with Floyd, and then as soon as Floyd offers them one, they act like they've never heard of Floyd before.

            The only top fighter in the 147ish region that has showed interest in fighting PBF has been Margarito. Mosley and Hatton have both feined interest but have both had excuses, most notably Hatton with numerous not ready yet claims. Cotto and Williams while not dodging him havent exactly been screaming out his name and calling him out.

              Yup, pretty much sums it up.

              The only fight that makes sense for Floyd is Pac at 140, if he can make it. The Mosley fight would be an OK fight but I don't think it will make PBF "un-retire" to fight him.

No isntead he goes after DLH who isn't even top 10 PfP IMO maybe n10 just because i'm generous. and now he says he will only fight DLH in a rematch. hes doing this just for the money ! he isn't up for knew challenges. a fight with cotto , or margarito or mosley , all will do good PPV sales and are all better matchups then PPF-DLH IMO. ok he might not get DLH kinda money .but still the guy already is ****** rich. i don't consider this guy top 20 PfP offall time, i dont consider consider oscar top 30
                your post becomes gargabe when you say he should have fought 160 or 175 guys, instead of Oscar for his first fight above 147

                btu the Anne Nicole Smith part had me laughing out loud... good k on the way.

                  LOL, anyways I agree witht the senitments already expressed, which is that you can't blame Floyd because of the fact that none of these guys want to fight him. He tried to fight Cotto, but Arum said he wasn't ready. He tried to fight Hatton, but Ricky outpriced himself. He has been trying to fight Mosley for almost 10 years, but Mosley hasn't wanted the fight until now since he knows he is basically on his way out, and he realizes he needs to make all the money he can. Paul Williams just like Margarito isn't a big enough name, plus Williams is too green to fight Mayweather right now, hell he had a short amateur career, and he doesn't have many pro fights either. Again, it takes two to make a fight happen, you can't expect Floyd to go chasing these guys down, he can only fight those willing to fight him.

                    i'm talking after the DLH fight , why come out of retirement only to fight oscar??? money ! thats why i don't like him that much , why not a bigger threatH like winky , or hopkins? or taylor.? then we can talk about his legacy, or he could just clean out 147 pound division. this is what i ment.

                      The guy fights at Light Middleweight weighing 148-150 and you think he should fight in a higher division? Who is the toughest fight: DLH, Cotto, Margarito, or Hatton? If you answer anything but DLH you need to get your head examined. Oscar would KO any of the other 3 in quick fashion. Why not just give Floyd his credit?
