    Questions about Floyd?

    Floyd didn't fight Margarito, Cotto and Mosley because they can't draw PPV buys.

    How many arenas did Marquez sold? Marquez had only 1 good PPV and that was against Pacquiao.

    Maragito vs Cotto did decent numbers as well as Cotto vs Mosley.

    Why did he picked a 135 pounder who can't draw **** over Mosley, Cotto and Margarito?

    Because u cant expect him to jump in against a cotto or mosley without a tune up even though i feel floyd will beat marquez callin it a tune up is actually wrong cause marquez is a dangerous opponent.

    basically floyd will get at least 70% of the revenue with as little risk as possible.makes business sense.

      Am I the only one who feels that not everything a Boxer says is fact, or something he believes to be fact? It's all about publicity, attention, public relations and spinning things in a direction you like. Floyd Mayweather knows that.

      Floyd didn't fight Cotto or Mosley because of his risk vs. reward assessment- something all athletes do. If Peyton Manning is going to sign with a new team, he's going to look at what team is offering the most money vs. who has the better line to protect him. He might very well take a little less money to have more protection and stop from getting sacked often; nobody calls a quarterback a ***** for that.

      Floyd isn't a true welterweight. Cotto and Mosley would present real challenges- Floyd was able to make a killing fighting a junior welterweight, and then, because of how he played his cards, everyone is now BEGGING him to fight ANOTHER junior welterweight (and that's being kind to Pacquiao's size.)

        I see fighting JMM as a tune-up for Pac. He chose to have the fights closer to WW because apparently he is also targeting the top WW. Wishful thinking on my part though lol

          Hi Jr. And I like that thinking, but I don't believe he'll end up doin it.

            Hmm...after JMM and Pacman, he'll probably take one more fight that doesn't involve Cotto or Mosley and retire again.

              Floyd will never step in the ring with Cotto.

                Hi daddy. Why don't you believe in Mr boat buyer anymore? He has pissed me off in the past but lately he's been doing alright.

                  Jr, Mr boat buyer is like the boy who cried wolf. I believed in him before, and I defended him to no end. I just got sick n tired of gettin **** on by my own fighter. Mr boat ran outta slack wit me Jr. He quit givin a **** about his fans so I quit givin a **** about him. He gets nothin from me til he fights a top WW. Not just says he will, but actually does it.

                    That's my main quarrel with him. He forces me to do his fighting for him lol.
