    Oh, so double the amount is considered "heavy"? I normally do not resort to insulting some one over the internet, but you are truly pathetic. Here you are claiming that the majority of people were predicting a Floyd loss to these fighters, you do the research yourself to find that you were actually wrong and try to downplay the significance of the actual information.

    Oh, and you were right about the Baldomir fight. Look at all the predictions favoring Baldomir in this article.

    I like this part where they completely confirm your claims

    The oddsmakers keep underestimating Carlos Baldomir, but Floyd Mayweather won’t make that mistake.
    I could even easily destroy this claim below..

    If I was Mayweather, I'd be doing the same god damn thing. Why am I going to work for 10 million when I can work for 50.
    Brother you hit the nail on the head, but hate blinds people, going into those fights many had Mayweather losing his first fight, but after they lost, oh its they were never good enough to win in the first place. They simply just dont like Floyd, anyone with sense would rather make take more than less, but hate blinds, its really a sign of flattery.
    But I'm sure by now you have realized that you've let your bias and love for Floyd cloud your common sense. Nuthuggetry blinds people.

      I stop talking to people when they start putting words in my mouth, it just proves you will go to any length to try and make yourself look credible, where did I say the majority of people were picking those fighters to beat Floyd? Again if you cant answer this you should just leave because the only thing you have done up till this point is tell lies.

        Since when does the word MANY mean or indicate the MAJORITY? Either you dont know the distinction between these two words or you simply made a mistake, Ill believe the former is correct.

          I wasn't aware that quoting you directly meant I was "putting words" into your mouth. You make the rest of us TRUE Floyd and boxing fans look bad.

                As a fan, I want Floyd to take on those who are perceived as challenges. That is what champions do. He is the #1 P4P Boxer in the world for a reason. He is currently undefeated for a reason. But I also understand that if he is going to continue to profit from the P4P status, if he is going to continue to call himself the game's best, if I MYSELF am going to continue to call him this era's best, he needs to fight the next threat to his throne. I guess I am the only Floyd fan on this board that sees it this way.

                But, certain posters don't feel that Cotto is worthy enough to step in the ring with Floyd. Certain posters don't feel that Cotto is important enough to step in the ring with Floyd. So then I ask, who is? Who is worthy enough to step in the ring if it isn't Miguel Cotto? If there is no one, then what should
                Floyd do?
                Didn't he just do that with his last two fights? These were both slim odd fights where the challenger was perceived as a serious threat. Then after he beats them they weren't a proper challenge.

                His fight with DLH was a SD. Something wrong with rematching that? It's done all the time, but when Mayweather does it, it's a problem?

                Don't worry...Mayweather will fight and KOTFO Cotto, and then you'll be crying again about someone else he should fight.

                  And at least he's not fight bums in between like Cotto... In Cotto's last fight he was a 10:1 favorite! Are you aware of the last time Mayweather fought as a 10:1 favorite? Baldomir odds weren't even close to those sort of odds.

                    Yeah he called 2:1 odds huge, that tells me he knows nothing about betting and also nothing about boxing.
