    Damn, I feel so owned right now. There are only a few things that make me feel a little bit less owned

    1. Floyd had been offered a career best payday to fight for one of those green straps against Margarito. His love of money and belts wasn't enough to make the fight I guess.

    2. Floyd already had the IBF belt, why not just keep that instead of vacating?

    3. If Floyd likes belts so much, why not try and get the ones held by Cotto and Margarito?

      Bye.

      Anyway...........

      Pavlik is slow as mollasses....Floyd would pot shot his way to victory.

        **** off, people.
        If Floyd could beat Pavlik, RJJ right now would tear his ass another four or five holes.

            Maybe. Maybe not. At the time Cotto hadn't even fought Zab Judah yet and his legitimacy at Welterweight was also in question.

            Paul Williams didn't exist, really (unless you were that impressed with his ko of sharmba)...

            I guess the only other fight out there was Margarito.

            And personally stand firm that fighting Oscar at 154 is a much tougher challenge than fighting Margarito at 147.

            But it's all opinions and perspectives...

                    Since when? When people were debating who was better, DLH, Tito or Quartey, did people say "no need for debate, the guy with the WBC belt is the best"?

                    Alphabet titles don't mean that much. The winner Hopkins vs Calzaghe is the best fighter at 175, but there's no WBC, IBF, WBA or WBO belt on the line.
