Mayweather NEVER GAVE A (****) about the WW divison. BUT the WW division needed him 2

[Boofdatruth]

Floyd has fought at 147, or should I say held the title captive at 147 for 3 years without fighting the best fighters. He has gone to 154 and come back down to fight a top 140 pounder instead of one of the best at 147. How on Gods green Earth is he not a welterweight?

As far as Margarito....He has fought practicly his whole career at 147 after an early stint at 140 and making an attemp to capture a title at 154. He never has problems making weight and has no reason to go to 154 again as long as there are challenges at 47.

Arum has worked the Mayweather-dodged-my-fighters angle incessantly, and brilliantly, and the tale that Mayweather declined $8 million to fight Margarito is absolutely true.It just fails to note that Mayweather then took $8 million from a different promoter, Dan Goossen, for a fight against linear welterweight champion Carlos Baldomir, who was the hottest fighter in the sport at the time, and would have been a shoo-in for 2006 Fighter of the Year if the voting had been held the day before Mayweather dominated him for 12 rounds.

It also fails to note that Mayweather had paid Arum a $750,000 buyout to break their exclusive contract and did not want to fight for his former promoter again, and that Arum's bigger interest in the Mayweather-Margarito proposal was to secure an opponent worthy of a $2 million payday for Margarito, who was growing impatient with the promoter for not delivering major events.Mayweather's career path after that decision is difficult to argue. He followed the Baldomir victory with his two biggest fights and mainstream stardom.

ohhh...I see what kind of poster you are, Keep up the good work man..lol

He will tell you who Floyd didn't fight, but he won't ever say Floyd ducked or was scared of Coto or Margs. Even his critics here say it daily. You ask this poster why he won't call Floyd a coward or that he ducked anyone lol. Floyd wasn't doing business with Arum. He can't understand this lol.

Look, if a fighter chooses to fight at a certain weight and calls himself the best at that weight, should he not have to fight the best opposition there? Or do you believe he should be given a free pass even though he made that choice?

Now, he might get the De La Hoya fight that Mayweather eschewed. Or maybe a Cotto rematch. Or maybe Zab Judah, if Judah beats Joshua Clottey this week.

The 8 million story has been trotted out a ton lately.I don't see any rebuttal from Floyd but the thing is, as much as I wanted to see this fight and Floyd fight top welters, he won financially in the end taking to break the bank fights versus Hatton and DLH.

That's what happened. I don't have to like it, and I don't but financially he won.
If he wanted to stick it to Arum, he sure as hell did.

I commend him on making the money he did. I just won't put him on a pedestal at 147 when he didn't take on the best.

Who cares lol. You know what...here take this:

[MANGLER]

It's pretty obvious he didn't care about the WW division. The beef against him was cuz of the fact that he didn't care, he had no business wastin time supposedly bein the WW champion if he wasn't gonna fight his #1 challengers, 1st Marg, then Cotto. Don't talk **** about 'he can't draw' and 'he ain't earned a shot yet' and all that bull**** if you got an agenda that obviously don't include fightin these guys at all.

lol, your comments are laughable. This is floyd and the WW division. We can talk about it all, so "no", it isn't clear enough. The thing is, you won't go as far to say Floyd ducked anyone or is scared lol...You just say he didn't fight them. You know...lol...you know.

Yeah I know, I know. I know Floyd didn't fight a single decent welterweight outside of Judah for 3 years. Laugh all you want crackhead, you can't change the facts.

I got to something about carlos Baldomir being the "hottest fighter in the sport" and I keeled over laughing! Of all the bull**** you've tried to spin and all the lies you tell on a regular basis, this may take the cake. You have now graduated from a clown to completely and utterly brain dead. Mommy and Daddy must be so proud!!

By the way, you put me on ignore 2 and a half weeks ago and swore it was for a month. Just shows how good your word is.Lmao!!
