    He had no reason to call Forrest out, he lost to Mayorga.

    Yea, like Baldy brought a lot of PPV buys .

    Well when people don't want to fight you cause of the risk, can't blame him. He at least fought the best in his division when given the chance. What did Floyd do?? That's right, RETIRE......only to come back against a LW. And this guy says he's greater than SRR?? lmao!!!
    So let me get this straight. It is not okay for Floyd to fight the #2 P4P fighter in the world in his come back fight.. despite the fact they started 4 pounds apart from each other. But.. it is ok for Cotto to fight Pac???? why isnt' there a damn uproar about this? Some of the people on this site are a joke. Double standards are every where.

          Floyd was the best WW.

          Tony and Cotto have never been the best at anything.

            Floyd is scared of Cotto and Marg period. he chose to retire.

              It's simple why the fight with Margarito fight didn't happen.
              At the time Oscar hated Arum and wouldn't fight Floyd if he was with Arum. So Floyd bought out his contract so he could fight Oscar.

              Simple math tells me that 10 mill that Floyd made against Baldomir and 25 mill that Floyd made against Oscar is more than the 8 mill he would have made against Margarito.

                  A comeback fighter that has..........0, zip, nada, jack ****, nothing above 135.

                  I would of been ok if he fought a WW bum as a tune up.

                  Cotto has been fighting the top dogs, if Mayweather were to of been doing the same thing instead of being retired to avoid them(WW). Most people wouldn't of had a problem with him fighting someone like Marquez.

                  Also Pac is a champion @ 140...Cotto @ 147. ONE Division.

                      And?? That doesn't make it a legit fight.

                      Look man, if it were one of my favorite boxers pulling the **** Mayweather is doing....I wouldn't even be a fan.
