Exactly... like I stated I would also love to see him somebody else no doubt about it, but I understand it and every other boxer would do the same. I want the Cotto fight and it will happen, I'm rest of sure. And after the DLH II I also have to say, I can only accept two things... either he retires for good or he fights Cotto. Somebody else would not come to mind because nobody has the drawing power.
The Ray Robinson thing... I think that first of you can't compare it... and second of all... the media changes everything. Floyd is exposed to everyone. Everybody can watch his fights etc. There are only a few tapes of Robinson. So if Ray Robinson would fight today he would have probably the same standing as Mayweather. Because there are 4 world titles. You probably won't fight the best but still be champion and with the talent of Ray Robinson ppl would get bored and say or he fights loosers, but he only make them look like. Boxers usually speak good about boxers. Ray Leonard in an interview stated that he thinks that Floyd is one of the best. And every boxer and historian says that Ray Robinson was the best. Probably they right. But again who's the best is a bias decision. Many times we consider somebody the best because somebody did something at first and if you see it again it's like yeah but it's not the original. Again I don't doubt Ray Robinson but if he would fight today who knows??? And Ray Robinson was one of the toughest business man ever!!! He even said that he just boxes for money... so if it was like that back then and you can respect him for that, I don't know why it should be different today in this worldComment

Floyd and that fat ass manager of his don't know ****in ****, they talk out thier asses and are full of it. They think too damn highly of themselves. They claim Floyd is the leading man in boxing therefore he don't have to fight the fights the public demands. There has always been a leading man in boxing, and that man always fought those demanding fights, so why are they now, so special that they gotta have it differently. Oscar is the richest boxer in history because he fought everyone. He never put himself on a pedestal and claimed that other great fighters were not worthy enough to fight him. Miguel is just as good as Floyd, but they keep making excuses not to fight him, cuz theyre scared & they don't wanna lose that "0".Comment

Mayweather is a joke if robinson fought the weak competition he fought he would be undefeated to the three toughest fighters on his ledger are delahoya, judah, and castillo all of who almost beat him and none of which could be considered great fighters, but they all all almost defeated the self proclaimed baddest fighter ever.
He is a joke and a fraud who is trying to sell the boxing public a bill of goods he is scared of any real threat thats what it comes down to, now hagler is a true all time great as well as many others whitaker, hearns, leonard, duran, chavez truly great fighters who proved it.Comment

Why does Floyd have to show his opponent and ppl that he has a great chin?? Isn't that his opponent's job to do?? Why risk losing and taking punishment when your controlling the fight and winning. Its not Floyd's job to show he has a good chin it's his opponent job to that.
Have u ever boxed before?? The object of the game is to hit and not get hit. Nobody wants to take unnecessary punishment thats just plain dumb even when your the best boxer in the world.
