    But it was funny in the interview when she was like "why not Miguel Cotto?" and he goes "I'm here to talk about Ricky Hatton".
    Do you think anyone has ever ducked anyone in the history of boxing? Because if Floyd didn't duck the welterweight division, then the previous view would necessarily be true.

      I think ducking is a misused term.

      Essentially, Floyd's main reason for moving up was the DLH fight. He got that, than took another huge money fight.

      At that point in his career I understand why he was all about the huge money fights. Do I wish he fought Cotto after Hatton? Yea, of course I think everyone does. But I wouldn't consider that a "duck". I don't think Floyd is scared of anyone, I think he truly believes he would beat anyone. I think he honestly wanted to retire, or at least take a lot of time off, and that's his prerogative.

      People get ducked, but I wouldn't consider what Floyd did with Cotto or Margarito "ducking".

        Floyd knows his stuff pretty well. It’s true when he said about the money part. How promoters like Arum and King get big cuts and choose what the fighter does.

          You mean Cotto, you can't duck an entire division...

                If Floyd fought Cotto, he'd get accused of ducking Margarito, if Floyd fought Margarito he'd get accused of ducking Mosley, if Floyd fought Mosley he'd get accused of ducking Williams.

                The list goes on and on. The people who dislike Floyd for whatever reason will always slate him for the same old reasons.

                  Funny all those guys you mentioned have fought each other but none have fought Floyd.....interesting.

                  Can we all just agree that Floyd won't be fighting any real ww's? For whatever reason.
