But wasn't too long ago he was stil the same great boxer but not that followed like he is now. When him and cotto fought on the same card here in fresno there was maybe 5,000 people IF THAT watching the fight fortunately i was one of them but if you recall to his first fight with castillo two GREAT lightweights the mgm was not close to selling out .

      Floyd uses that excuse to NOT fight other fighters like cotto... he says things like "hes not a big enough name"

      since hes such an ego maniac and has been recorded saying hes the reason the hatton and oscar fights did so well


      why doesnt someone say to him, well if your so big, and u can sell out so much, why does cotto need to have a name? as long as ur name is on the fight card, it should sell out right?
      Sorry bro....I guess I didn't read your first post fully.

      In that case, I agree with Deanrw.

            I will repeat this one now..........

            Hes remind me of the old wrestling days. The WCW on TBS in like the mid to late 80's. When you would see these bums get in there against the likes of the 4 horseman, AMnny Fernandez, Jimmy Valiant, The Road Warriors.

            These guys would just get the piss beat outta em every single time they stepped in the ring. Yet then were indeed on the show every single week gettin airtime and bruises for there work!!!

                See, I know thats exactly why he wants another big name... I mean, I know that...

                What Im saying is, he comes across like he is God, and says things like Hatton and Oscar arent nearly as responsible as he is, for their fights doing so well...

                So with that said, the interviewer should say to him, when Floyd says Cotto or margarito isnt a big enough name. "Yeah but Floyd, your a HUGE name now right? You should be able to make all the money you want based on your name alone...... RIGHT?"

                    Style make fight gentlemen and Money may is a broing fighter for the most common boxing fan. Only the few who know the sport well can appreciate his defeensive style and pot shot punches. His fast hands and dead on balls accuracy. the common boxing fan rather see a guy like a Margarito throw 100-120 punches a round or a Hatton pressure type boxer then FLoyd or Hopkins. I put them both in this thread because I believe Hopkins has the same problem selling PPV. If he were not fighting against a fighter named Pavlik his next fight would not be on PPV.....Lefty
