      ok..so your saying that he left when he had much more to accomplish? in other words you thought he was wrong when he said that he had done everything he needed to do to be considered the best there is? Well im glad that this ticket sales problem isnt bothering you, my comment was more directed to the fans of floyd who thought that he was a "cash cow"

        If Floyd ever loses I fear for Larry's life, he will be put on suicide watch surely.

        Is it true the fight sold less than 3000 tickets? if so that is very poor for a worldclass fight, even Junior Witter can sell 3000 tickets.

            You sound like you're not defending Floyd that much to me. Mayweather would get negative criticism from me if he decided to fight Cotto instead of JMM. I don't get why people view this fight as such a mismatch. What challenge does someone like Cotto or Pacquiao present that JMM doesn't? I think Pacquiao is a tougher challenge for Floyd than Cotto, but I was fine with him fighting JMM. And I hope the fight is still on. I mean yeah, sure I would love it if he fought Paul Williams. But I'd rather see Floyd get beat up by someone that nobody is giving a chance so everybody can rub his face in the dirt.

                  Floyd can't even sell enough to fill up the Home Depot Center in Carson.

                  Only warriors fill up that place.

                  Izzy and Rafa,

                  Williams and Margarito.


                  I think HDC would host a Mayweather fight in the parking lot,



                  as a sideshow to a skating event.

                    De La Hoya vs any of his mediocre wins all sold out.
