    he is a good fighter but hes already beaten clottey. He lost to Williams and plus theres more money in the williams fight vs marg than marg vs clottey. Plus Williams vs marg will make more money on ppv than him vs clottey so he would be fighting the better fighter who already beat him plus hell make more money on it. Doesnt it sound good?

        No, Joe getting a bigger payday to fight Jones.

        "Chicken" Floyd turned down an $8 million payday and fought Baldomir for $4 million because he's a coward.

          Dude Floyd is the biggest coward in ****ing boxing he never had the guts to face Margarito. Oscar is close runner up. But make no mistake, I firmly believe that Floyd has a natural born talent that any other champion right now could only dream to have, and that he would beat Cotto/Margarito if he actually had the guts to fight him...but he doesn't take risk so history will remember him as such.

            I agree, Paul Williams is a coward for fighting at 147. He should be fighting at least at 160, but he's a natural light heavyweight, or even bigger.

            Paul Williams has the same reach as Wladimir Klitschko, 81".

            Bernard Hopkins fighting a little guy like De La Hoya was cowardly, as was heavyweight Joe Louis fighting the much smaller middleweight Billy Conn.

              Joe is fighting for money, while Mayweather fought for the WW title.

                What makes a boxer a coward is if they get on forums, don't fight and call others cowards behind the safety of a computer.

                  A coward is someone that waits till there opponent is out of there Prime and then goes in for the kill.

                    HAHAHAHA
                    Margarito should also be fighting at 160, oh wait he won’t. Mayweather fought 4 weight classes above his natural. It would be like Margarito fighting at LHW against Hopkins or RJJ.

                      I don't think pro boxers are cowards.

                      I think to an extent I am a coward and so are all of you.
                      As Shakespeare said "Conscience makes cowards of us all"

                      Or we'd all be serial killers and/or completely mentally ill.
