Why won't Floyd fight someone in his own weight division?

[fightingfigs]

We have a winner, ladies and gentleman.

He hasnt fought anyone in welterweight because he will be forced to fight Mosley CLottey Margarito or Cotto.

All guys that will beat him

[MoneyMay1]

He should fight Mosley first. Waiting any longer would hurt Mosley, and ultimately, the credit he'd'receive for a win.

Alright, here we go again with this. Just like I said in a previous post. There are always going to be excuses no matter what Floyd does. Look at yourself! You're already trying to make excuses for when Floyd beats Shane! When the truth is, Shane turned down a fight in '06 with Floyd because his wife didn't want him to fight. What does he have to do? Move up and fight Klitschko? Give me a break!

I wouldnt give PBF too much credit beating Shane. He needs to move up to middleweight and beat Pavlik. People have asked that of Pac even, so i think PBF should practice what he preaches and see how he likes it.

How would PBF perform weighing more than he should do. Would he still have athetic advantages against someone like Pavlik?
The juries still out on PBF.

Are you that dumb???

1. Look through my posts, I've never called Floyd a ***** or anything like that, so don't call me a "hater", ******.

2. The point of the ****in post was to say that a win over Mosley now would be better now, then in 10 months.
I'd'give him all the credit for a win over Mosley. I was talking about the "haters" in that instance. But again, you're too ****** to realize that I wasn't making excuses.

Stop swinging from Floyd's nuts and reading only what you want.

He has been back for one fight, give the guy a break.

Hatton wasn't ready for Floyd when both were at LWW, and when he was ready... Floyd had just beat DLH, it was down to Hatton to chase Floyd not the other way round.

Floyd has fought guys either the same size or bigger than him for most of his career, 2 guys smaller I can pick off the top of my head are JMM and Hatton... can't think of any others.

Don't waste your time. It's a lost cause. The hate at this point is too great to overcome logic

[Glamour Puss]

That is one big *****!!!

Are you really that insecure that you have to resort to name-calling? First of all, you misquoted me. I never said anything about anybody being a "hater." I am ******? You are the one saying that as time goes by, Floyd will get less credit for a win. So, let's play your silly game. Let's say Floyd and Shane sign a contract for their very next fight. When do you think that would happen? Next Saturday? Get real.

Both would train for months for this fight and the earliest I could see this happening is March or April 2010. That's 7 months right there, and is that not a realistic time frame for Floyd to fight again, considering he just fought this weekend? This is the problem with forums like this. Some people are too immature and too insecure to have a reasonable debate with somebody without calling them names like "******," and "Nut-hugger." Are you a little kid or what?

jay em..where are my points???why didnt you honor our bet??you are suppose to leave 4 6 months and sport a mayweather avator

Back in December 2007, Floyd fought the light welterweight Ricky Hatton, and forced him to move up to 147 for the fight.

This year he fought a career featherweight, a great old fighter who had just moved up to lightweight. Floyd forced him to move up two weight divisions...

Who's next? Darchinyan? Calderon? Why won't Floyd fight another welterweight? Is he afraid of boxers his own size?

Why does he get smaller men to fight him in his weight division - isn't that a ***** move?

very original thread.
