    Floyd Wants The Money & The Fame!!!

    Lets not fool ourselves here but lets also not get upset about it. There is nothing wrong with that. Lets also not say ****** stuff like Floyd is scared because you guys know thats a joke.

    With guys like Cotto & Margarito its simple. They dont do numbers! Why cant people just leave it at that? They try to put all this other crap in these post that dont mean jack. Im sure Floyd was amazed when he watched HBO and saw how all those crazy Brits came to see Hatton. That fight would be huge compared to a guy like Cotto doing 150,000 in PPVs. Lets get real about that. Cotto didnt do 225,000. Every other credible source said 150 and the only person to say different is Arum who said 225. You know he's putting it up. They did 200 at the most. Magarito had PPVs where he did only 35,000. Floyd is not going to fight anyone like that ever. Its just that simple and theres nothing more or less to do with it.

    He knows Hatton brings the numbers. He also knows Mosley is solid but Shane is pretty much a Jr. Winky. Meaning that he thinks he's worth way more then what he is so the negotiaions definatly wouldnt work. Floyd also knows that if he beats Oscar & Hatton back to back then Shane or no one else can talk money with him. Why do you think its rumored that Floyd might fight Tito at 160? He wants the big money PPV fights. He spent his whole career as a elite fighter but because of Arum he could never get on PPV. Then in his last fight with Arum they gave him Gatti on PPV so Floyd wouldnt leave. Thats why Floyd fought a guy like Bruseles. He was trying to hurry up and get out of that Arum contract. Thats another reason why he wont fight Cotto & Margarito. He hates Arum more then anyone in boxing.

    As Ive said, you think Floyd wouldnt fight Cotto or Margarito if they were stars? Stop talking crazy. He would jump on that fight so quick. Floyd may actually still be at 140 right now if he didnt chase Oscar. Thats the only reason why Floyd kept moving up so fast. He wanted to get to Oscar so bad. If Oscar was a 140 pounder then Floyd would still be there. If there were 5 other Oscars before 154 then Floyd wouldnt be up there. For people to say he's scared of guys is ******. He just wants them to bring big money. Do you honestly believe that he looks at someone slow like Margarito and gets scared? Do you honestly believe he looks at a suspect chin stalker with slow hands like Cotto and gets scared? Thats a joke if you believe that. Let Cotto do 550,00 buys in his next fight and watch Floyd jump on that fight so quick. Thats all its about. Its the same about Taylor. I bet anything that Floyd would be trying to make history right now at 160 if Taylor broungt huge money. He brings solid money but if he was a star then Floyd would be trying to fight him right now so you know he's not scared of these smaller guys

    You act like Floyd don't know there's another 500K on the internet watching the fight plus the other 100K that will wait for dailymotion.com to show it the next day, plus the 10K that will wait for the replay the next week.

    it all adds up to the maybe 200K that will pay $55

    PEOPLE WILL WATCH MAYWEATHER FIGHT COTTO, HATTON, MARGARITO etc (just to watch him lose)


    -edit- fool got $20 mill so stop with the money talk

      That is true. Mayweather is a businessman first, boxer second.

        So how many PPV has Hatton sold on USA, genius?

        Hatton may have the British fans but Cotto has the Puerto Ricans and know after the Judah fight the casual boxing fan.

        Casual boxing fans don't like all the clinching and holding from Hatton.
