is mayweather a coward??

[boxingfan4life]

I dont think he is a coward. I did at first but sat back and thought about it Besides the accusation of him ducking margarito he did offer fights to both hatton and mosely in the past but they turned it down. As far as him running, yeah thats a boring style but its considered a safer way of fighting. He just doesn't take chances and doesn't wanna take unnecessary shots. Plus the fight with de la hoya he was fighting a bigger and stronger opponent. Anybody with sense knows not to go toe to toe with someone you can't hurt but can put you on your ass. If people remember his fights before DLH he was pretty aggressive but people forgot about those fights. Can't wait for the Dec fight. Its gonna be exciting and i hope dancing with the stars doesn't take away his focus. Either way whether it would be hatton on mayweather i'll be happy for the winner

i want to see peoples opinions on this. all i see is a man who ducks the best fighters turned down the biggest payday of his career fights nothing but bums and runs for 12 rounds every fight. is mayweather a coward??

LOL!
When did Floyd turn down the biggest payday of his career?
Hopefully your not referring to Bob Arum's bull**** offer that he couldnt actully come through with.
Also, Floyd got more for the Baldy fight than he would have for the Margirito fight, and then fought DLH, (who is still one of the top fighters in the world) at a weight class 24 pounds above his original one.
Now hes fighting undefeated jr welter champion Ricky Hatton.

And you wanted him to face some minimally talented media creation in Antionio Margirito, who recently lost to a 26 year old kid whos best opposition was Walter Dario Matthysse, a kid Cintrion stopped easily in 2 rounds.

It was meant to be contradictive.

Margarito's no one to have to avoid. Floyd told him that he would give him a fight if Margarito made a name for himself. Marg lost to Williams in his biggest fight and there ya go.

Didn't margerito stop Cintron?

What about Floyd V Cintron then ?
Is Cintron worthy?
Is any fighter who has suffered a loss not worthy?

i think he was the longest reigning welter when floyd came up i'm not sure,and all that the punisher revealed about margarito was that he is a slow starter.

Alright, now let's be honest about Margarito. He won his title off an title eliminator. That means he never beat a champion to get that WBO belt. All of his opponents were against low WBO ranked top ten fighters. He had very limited skills with hardly any lateral movement. he never fought a top tier fighter ever and still hasn't. And he lost to Daniel Santos twice at Jr MW, but yet Floyd fights OScar de La Hoya at his very 1st and only fight at JR MW and his succesful. Come on, he lost to Daniel Santos!

yeah Tony stopped Cintrion, which further proves my point...

Oh my bad. Besides margarito who did he ducked cause I thought he actually offered fights to other welters but they turned them down

[Wiley Hyena]

The higher he goes up in weight the more cautious he becomes.
He knows how to pick his fights and if his reflexes don't go he will continue to win fights. He should not acuse ODLH and Hatton for beating men past their so called prime as Floyd has been doing the same thing and even went around fighting KT's left overs.

Just went around KT, period.

[moofo]

Just because a fighter loses does that mean he can never win again???
Why are people so obsessed about losses?
Every HOF fighter has suffered losses.
Some more than once believe it or not.
