      Can you give a quick rundown of the story behind that?

      I'd like to know why we won't ever see Mayweather vs.:

      Williams
      Berto
      Forrest

      That could cause some problems considering Mayweather's mandatory is Andre Berto.

        He shouldn't be calling out Floyd, anyway. In such a talented division? He has alot left to prove.It makes sense to want to fight the number 2 guy. Then Floyd would be forced to look his way.

          I also respect Williams because he's seemingly the only one with some sense in that division and in boxing in general. He said last year that Floyd doesnt belong at WW because he's not a real WW and is too small to beat any of the guys there.

          I personaly think Floyd could beat all of them but I wouldnt be shocked at all if he lost. However, if he did lose then it would only be because he was too small so what does that prove? There not beating him because there better. None of the media or fans seem to aknowledge that but Williams does. Thats why all the WW's want to fight Floyd but Williams isnt a idiot. Thats why he constantly calls out the real WW's because they are the one's who should fight him. I dont think he holds it against Floyd as much as he does Cotto and the rest of them because they are his size and they still wont fight him. He legitmatly feels that Floyd has a solid excuse which is that he's not big enough but the other guys dont have any excuse and thats what makes him call them out. Its so sad that the media and other fans dont realize this
          Williams won't fight Mayweather because he's too small? Is this a joke? I thought getting the lineal title was so important? By your reasoning, Mayweather should never have fought Baldomir because the guy is a bum, slow, old, no power, and everyone knew Mayweather would get no credit for it. Oh yeah, Mayweather fought him because he was lineal champ but Williams won't fight Mayweather for that very same, prestigious title because he's too small? The same guy who fought that bum Pakau who is a lightweight?

          USE SOME PLAIN AND BASIC COMMON SENSE WILL YA???????????

            The story is they are all "advised" by Al Haymon, who is one of the most powerful people in boxing and he has major pull with HBO. Haymon also handles Tarver and Jermain Taylor, among others. If it were in everyones best interest I'm sure his clients could fight each other. But as far as I know, it hasn't happened yet. My guess would be that Berto's mandatory will be used when Floyd eventually vacates his title.

              You should tell your slut mom that she should have used some plain and basic common sense.

              There's a reason she has AIDS.

                Like most have said Williams isn't dumb and knows that at this point he's going to have to fill his resume up with big names to have Floyd actually look his way. Floyd has made big money in his last couple of fights and I doubt he accepts anything less than that. So it's probably good that Williams doesn't waste time calling him out for now because you know he would like the fight, but he's being realistic.

                  Dont twist my words. I didnt say that Williams wont fight Floyd. The question is why wont he call him out. He wont call him out because he knows that Floyd wont fight him right now. There are also other WW's who wont fight him right now but he rips all of them. The reason why he doesnt rip Floyd is because he thinks that Floyd has a good excuse and I honestly believe he understands that. Its just like Winky saying that Floyd is too small. I didnt say Williams wouldnt fight him. He would fight him in a second just like everyone 147 and above would but I honestly believe he understands Floyd saying No but he doesnt understand the other guys saying No since they are his size. Thats cowardly

                    Dude, what are you talkin about? You know as well as I do that Oscar is always the exception. You saw him fight Oscar and then move right back down, didnt he? Anyone will fight Oscar and will go to whatever weight to do it because he brings the big money. That doesnt prove anything. Other exceptions are other smaller guys. Floyd mightve went to MW to win the title if Spinks had beat Taylor but thats because he knows Spinks isnt a real MW. Im just saying what Ive always said. Floyd isnt going to fight a huge guy unless its super money or for the real title. Baldy had the real title so thats why Floyd fought him. Now he has it. If Williams or Cotto get there names bigger then sure Floyd will give it a try because the money is so great but he's not going to do it other then that
