Why does Floyd never have mandatories?

[Vladimir303]

I would say something along the lines of "Nice that you're downplaying Hatton after he lost to Floyd", but to tired to "argue" right now.

edit: by the way if he had fought Mosley he'd have "picked on another old guy" and if he fought Cotto and beat him it'd be "Who had he beat? A Judah who just lost to Mayweather and Baldomir before him?"

There is always two sides to a story. The hardcore Floyd critic who will downplay every opponent he has ever beaten. And then the Floyd fan who can give you all the positive things about the opponents he has beaten.

This is a never ending debate. At the end of the day, the results are all that matter. People pick Hatton to win, I argue their point of view and once Floyd spanked that ass and made that head bounce off the corner like a WWE wrestler, we knew who was right and who was wrong.

Hey Vlad, didn't you pick Chambers to win last night? How did that go for you? You picked the number one fighter in the world to win a fight last month, good for you.

It went almost like I said it would. Chambers using his Winky-esque defense and doing just enough to win on points was my prediction. Also I said, If I'm wrong, I'm wrong but one thing is for sure, this fight is going the distance.
Chamber's defense is too good.........I said.

I lost a buncha points on bets.......but I knew what I was talking about unlike some people who pick with their hearts rather then their head..

damn vlad based on your sig you lost 25 grand, I am angered that Floyd gets to just choose his opponent like Oscar, i'm also dissappointed on him fighting Hatton who didn't deserved to be rated p4p. But people need to relize Floyd is the man, he beat a prime Jose Luis Castillo (even tho I thot Floyd lost the first fight), he destroyed Angel Manfredy, and a bunch of other worthy challengers at lightweight

Points don't mean anything to me which I accepted all those bets. I thought it was a toss up fight myself, specially with it being in germany where it favors Povetkins but I didn't care. It's not money.

Lets get back to my point. Why is it ok with all you so called boxing fans that Floyd never fights his mandatories? Like I said it's easy to look good and stay undefeated when you pick who you fight. The same clowns trying to defend Mayweather on what I just said are the same clowns that jumped all over Margarito when he had his mandatory with Williams. Your all Floyd groupies

Margarito was not a 5-division champion. Hell he wasn't even the real welterweight champion. Williams was a legit contender, not just some bum ass mandatory that the WBO appoints. In other words he was legit and he was calling out the most feared man......Margarito had no choice.

Name me one fighter that's good enough to be Floyd's mandatory. We all know Cotto is Floyd's mandatory if he wants to call himself the best welterweight in the world, but Cotto is another Title holder, not a contender.

Floyd fought Mandatories all the time.

Carlos Rios easily comes to mind. And Hatton was ranked #1 by the WBC at welter at the time of their fight so he fought him and it counted as it.

Your point is? He's still a pro fighter that is supposed to be a champion. It's called boxing not Mayweather. Since when were the rules changed for him. Do you know what mandatory means? Hatton was'nt really a mandatory because he was not a welterweight. He phony over night ranking as a 147er. Berto is Floyd Mandatory and yes I would love to see him fight Floyd, Who would'nt?. Here's you and Floyd togetherforever. lol ***z

How is Berto Floyd's mandatory? And if Berto's smart he wouldn't fight him. Floyd is way too advanced skillwise and experience wise for Berto. Berto should fight Judah or Clottey in my opinion. He hasn't fought anyone like Floyd yet.
