For the idiots who say Floyd Called out Mosley when Mosley was going to fight DLH

I don't see what the big deal is. Whether I call it a "call out" like you or not, I don't deny that he was willing to fight these guys at the time so what's the big deal really? My point is the floyd of today isn't the floyd you see in the interview in a lot of ways.
My only beef is floyd thinks because he has gotten to the top, he feels he doesnt have to prove himself anymore. I feel as champion as being the best you do have to continue to do so, and if you get knocked off big ****ing deal. It's better to have been on top of the mountain and fall off than to have never been on top right.Last edited by sandyvahra; 05-23-2009, 05:40 PM.Comment

It's cool, me and you can usually argue something on good terms so it's okay if we completely disagree on one thing. You're cool, i respect your opinion.Comment

I see your point man. Like I said I probably have a diff definition of a call out. A call out is something harris done to floyd and tarver to roy...hounding them to fight, showing up at press conferences calling them out, doing it countless times.
But for this video at this point in time, this isn't the floyd of today. He wasn't a superstar yet, and he wanted to prove himself. so he was willing to fight anyone to prove himself, and hats off to him for that. But let's be honest, the guy in this interview, is he the same floyd of today?
And if anyone answers yes, then the contradictions you see today would have you hesitant in believeing he means what he says. That's why you see people ****ting all over his hitlist and 5 fight plan, etc.Comment

2005 Floyd Mayweather vs Henry Bruseles post fight Interview. Floyd calls out Mosley, De La Hoya, and Tszyu. De La Hoya vs Mosley II had already happened in 2003. They were free to fight Floyd, Floyd was willing to move up to 147 once he heard they(DLH, Mosley) were coming down to WW.
How can you watch this video and say that Floyd ducked Mosley?
Mosley went and fought bigger names like Winky Wright...so did De la Hoya. And this wasn't right after Mosley fought DLH the second time, this is after the 2nd winky Wright loss.Comment

Right back atcha man, matter of fact i held nothing but praise for floyd at the time of this interview. All that has to happen for me get back to that praise is see him fight the top dogs, nothing more. I dont care about him outside the ring, as long as he fights who we want inside the ring there isn't much more a fan can ask for.Comment

The reason u see that happening is because not ****ting on it would mean having to give Floyd credit. Floyd persued Oscar. That was his goal. Short trip at 140lbs then went for some belts at 147lbs. All that did was make him look more appealing to Oscar. after Oscar the Hatton fight was the biggest pay day there was. Who would not have taken that? In the end people will **** on Floyd for not fighting Cotto and Margarito. Margarito didn't earn that type of fight when he called Floyd out. Cotto earned but seemed fine with it not happening. People tend to rewrite history when speaking about evets that have past. frankly if Floyd fights Pac, that a dangerous fight. If he fights shane that is also a dangerous fight. To me it seems like he still has a desire to prove something. Only time will tell if he does it.Comment

This video doesn't mean ****. Why didn't he fight De la hoya until 2 1/2 years? He went and fought ARTURO GATTI LOL!!
Mosley went and fought bigger names like Winky Wright...so did De la Hoya. And this wasn't right after Mosley fought DLH the second time, this is after the 2nd winky Wright loss.
