If your talking about being better than both Sugar Ray at least take the challenge to prove yourself, what in the hell do you prove by beating an old fighter which you already fought?

Oscar bring way more money than Cotto and is the smart thing to do. Imagine i'm Floyd and they come to me and say: "Look there's Cotto for 12m and then there Oscar for 30m" Being 31 and probably on the last few winning fights would you take 12m to please ur haters or 30m to please ur wallet? kkthxbye

I just have one comment/question: Since when do we boxing fans make special cases for our so-called p4p boxers? People who say that Mayweather has nothing left to prove have tunnel vision and don’t see the big picture just like Floyd. Our champions in boxing are considered the best of the best because they beat the best. That's why we hold Ali, Robinson, etc etc to such high regards because they set the standards and for anyone to accept anything less while in their Prime (ala Mayweather) it's ridiculous. No there is nothing wrong with making money! But to be the self proclaimed GOAT you have to not only talk the talk but walk the walk. Guys I’m not hating on what Mayweather did at 130lbs. & 135lbs. But what he has done at 140lbs and 147lbs does not expedite his retirement by any mean and we hand him over the crown for the GOAT status. Sorry but it’s gonna take a hell of a lot more names on that resume to even put him in the top 20 all time. BTW….Sharmba Mitchell, Arturo Gatti, Henry Bruseles, Baldomir are C fighters at best so how does that make for a GOAT legacy compared to all the other champs of the past. This is not a strong enough argument for Floyd to make such statements as the Greatest of all Time. We fans know what’s what and who’s who. I just say as fans we need to demand this fight by pressuring and promoting it so nobody can duck anybody. And for the record I’m not saying Floyd is ducking Cotto so don’t get it twisted I just think he believes the world revolves around him when it’s really the other way around.

Mayweather, fighting Oscar De La Hoya "NOW"....that left Hook is rusty. Still has pop in his punches, but be for real, when was the last time Oscar handed down a beat down other than Mayorga?? Vargas was many moons ago.
Taking the money and run is cool...but you can't self proclaim to be the best, when you aren't "TAKING ON THE BEST!Last edited by guzi815; 03-25-2008, 05:46 PM.
