Clottey, Cotto, Margarito, Mosley are showing Floyd how its done.

[Puya]

Without the plaster, like this:

LOL outch !!!

[boxasmash]

Exactly. The 4 clear top Welterweight fighter, Mayweather hasn't fought any of them.

[arraamis]

Clottey has fought: Tony, Cotto, Judah and now Mosley
Mosley has fought: Tony, Cotto and now Clottey
Tony has fought: Cotto, Mosley, Williams, Clottey
Cotto has fought: Tony, Mosley, Clottey, Judah

These are the people that Floyd fears.

These are also the people that show what it is to be a fearless, warrior who will fight anyone.

I give cheers to these guys for taking risks and testing themselves against the best.



Floyd, you should be ashamed of yourself. That said, JMM will still kick your ass.

It can accurately be stated that PBF hasn't faced any of the guys mentioned - but don't leave out the WHY????

All the guys you listed collectively have not generated the financial profits that PBF has for any network or promoter. Also, Floyd has made more MONEY at boxing than all of these guys put together.

So yes Floyd hasn't fought any of the above mentioned - But who he has fought has made him more money than any of them will even dream of making.

Boxing is a BUSINESS FIRST

Anyone that doesn't understand that reality is doomed to fighting at the whim of others for life. Mosley has been in the business of boxing longer than any of those mentioned -- BUT!!!! he is still dancing to other peoples music.

Floyd has his own Band, Orchestra, Dance-floor and Building. And he alone calls all the shots ...............

So the WHY? is clear IMHO.

If I had a choice of fighting the best in boxing for 500K here, 300K there or fighting those who bring the largest financial reward to the table .... I will go for the paper.

Floyd in 2007 generated over $250,000,000.00 worth of revenue to the sport and HE took home over $80,000,000.00.

Pac, Mosley, Cotto, Clottey, Williams, Margarito, ALL COLLECTIVELY HAVEN'T EVEN BROUGHT IN 30% OF THAT.

The WHY is crystal clear.

That's exactly why the fight vs Marquez is doing great. Keep up the great analysis (excuses).

Its not an excuse to state that some fighters have more of a business sense than others - its just a fact. Many want to harp on what Floyd has done since moving up to WW ... but at the same time totally dismiss what he accomplished prior. If an accurate argument is to be made then don't take some of the story .. take a look at the whole big picture.

I'm willing to bet my house that if the price is right ... they will fight. {And eliminate all the behind the scene crap Arum always try to pull that prevents fights from being made}


By the way .... Can you give\produce actual documentation of fact on how well the Mayweather\Marquez fight is doing? Or is it just word of mouth\blogger based second-hand noise.

[-GR -]

Exactly. The 4 clear top Welterweight fighter, Mayweather hasn't fought any of them.

When Floyd was fighting Baldomir Cotto was at JWW (and he turned down Money there), Mosley was at JMW (and he turned down Money twice before) and Tony was a nobody. Floyd then went on to fight DLH at 154 and Hatton, top10 p4p and #1 JWW, for challenges who were worth the money fights.

Tony calls out DLH after Cotto and people are fine with it though. Mosley wasn't relevant again until he beat Tony, and that was after looking poor vs Mayorga

Put there weight up and put there divisions up. Thats what Im talkin about. How can you seriously act like that doesnt matter one bit. Are you really trying to tell me that Floyd would be worried about these guys if he was in his 1st division and or if he came into the ring at 160 pounds? Every single guy on that list is basically in there 1st division and all enter the ring between 160-170 pounds. That doesnt matter at all right? Lets see them go to there 4th divison at SMW and fight Kessler while only coming into the ring at 167 pounds. Its a joke. I was just reading another board where the writer was saying that she see's Floyd a ton outside the ring and shes never ever seen him weigh more then like 152 pounds yet people want to act like he's a huge monster compared to JMM. These guys you just named walk around at 180-190 pounds in between fights.

Clottey fought at 140, 147, and 154
Cotto fougt at 140 and 147
Mosley fought at 135, 140, 147, and 154
Margarito fought at 135, 140,147, and 154

i guess floyd fight by himself right?
Does Oscar De La Hoya has anything to do with it?
or Maybe Ricky Hatton??

Do you have any documentation that says that mayweather made the 250 billions dollars in revenue??
