    When he fought De La Hoya at Jnr Middleweight, DLH was the WBC Jnr Middleweight champion

    When the Mayweather-Judah fight was made, Judah was the the lineal and Ring champion. Judah lost his tune-up for that fight, so Mayweather also fought the guy who beat him, who was the lineal and Ring champion when he fought him.

    Come on, there are plenty of valid criticisms that can be made of Floyd, there's no need to make up fictitious ones!

      The only time he came out of retirement and then didn't fight a top Welter was when he fought Hatton. I think he knows he'd lose credibility if he did that again. I expect him to fight a tune-up, then the Pac-Hatton winner, and then a top Welter. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, but that's how I imagine he's thinking.
      Come on Dave, lets look at his resume since moving to 147 a little more closely. He fought and old Sharmba Mitchell his first fight at 147. Thats fine, every fighter should test the waters before jumping in the pool. He then fought a talented but inconsistant fighter who just lost his titles to a journeyman. Next he fought the journeyman who had just beaten the talented but inconsistant fighter. After that he moved up to get his huge money fight against a part time but still somewhat tough fighter. After that he came back to 147 to fight a guy who nearly lost the only other time he fought at 147 and admitted it wasn't the right weight for him. Like I said.....he's developed a pattern of not fighting the best since coming to welterweight.

        Look,men Mosley wanting the fight in the west Cost is bull****. he lost a clear desicion in NY, that was well scored. And Cotto is the bigger draw, and ownes a win over him.

              I hope you're wrong, that would lose him a lot of respect. But you should be making millions as a clairvoyant if you're such a good mind reader.

                  Except that what he wrote was untrue - so either you're ignorant or just a hater.

                    Not only at Ww. he develop that over his entire career, for what ever reason, he didnt fought Freitas nor Casamayor at 130, he dint fought Tszyu nor hatton at 140, and he didnt fought, Cotto, Mosley nor Margarito at 147, and he didnt fought anybody at 154, so him been a SWW champ is bull****!!!!!!!!!!!

                      I know but that's not how the rankings work. Who is the #1 ranked WW right now? It's Mosley. Cotto needs to beat him again to be ranked #1.

                      Floyd will only fight the #1 guy in the division.
