    From Pauls own mouth saying Floyd never ducked him the fight just wasn't ready to happen.



    What are you talking about? The Boxing Voice? He never said that Floyd didn't duck him. Did you listen to it or just read the title from Theboxingvoice? Paul said I don't think so because everything happens for a reason. It wasn't in the cards. He fought Canelo and then I had my accident. But ... do I think it could have happened sooner? Yeah. I suppose so." And then the interview is quickly ended.

    I'm sure he has a different perspective after having had that accident. But that's not what he was saying at the time. And interestingly, as he was thinking about the question, he said I suppose the fight could have happened before the Alvarez fight. What I know is that Williams definitely thought Floyd was ducking him back then. I think it would have been better had Theboxingvoice not cut off the interview right when he was starting to change his first statement. Sounded as if he was about to change his mind that it was destiny that he and Floyd never fought.

      He said the fight wasn't ready, meaning just like Ennis is now, his big fights are not ready to be made that's all a part of the process of a fighter coming up through the ranks, Floyd didn't just land Oscar he pursued him for years, you seem to not understand the workings of boxing and so come up with a narrative that can be applied to every fighter that ever existed, your headline is total BS Floyd fought so many guys that outweighed him by a lot so size has nothing to do with it.

      Its boxing for every single guy a top liner fights there will ALWAYS be a bunch of people saying he ducked the guys he didn't fight, I would bet my house if Floyd fought Margarito and Williams and didn't fight Cotto Mosley Oscar you would be saying how he ducked Cotto Oscar and Mosley, its no different than Hagler Hearns Ray all accused of ducking Mike McCallum, its just how its always been, fans like to pump up their guy and tear down the guys they don't like, whats knew, Ive been seeing it for over 50 yrs where you have the establishment and then you have the fighter and they don't always align especially so in the eyes of fans who are as flip-flopping and biased as they come.

        Margarito is the one that will stand out for anyone who remembers the time.

        It was a blatent duck of a man he undoubtedly feared.

        A real shame, because at the time it would've been a really interesting fight. Would have loved to see what Floyd would have done when it wasn't completely stacked on him.

        There's always going to be question marks about Floyd and how he tipped the scales in his favour, avoiding the like of Margo. But reality is they will probably be forgotten by the youth who don't remember.

            Ive heard a number of stories about money etc, I don't even see Margarito as a threat I think Floyd would have boxed circles around him he was way slow to bother Floyd, Santos out boxed him easily with movement and Santos was lightyears away from Mayweather, I think people got carried away over the Williams fight where Paul stood with him and beat him, Floyd wouldn't fight him like at all, and Floyd beat 2 guys that beat Margarito, Mosely knocked Margo out 3 fights after Williams, he started calling Floyd out around 2006 I think it was and Margarito had 5 losses, in 2006 Floyd was chomping on Oscar heels who just knocked out a MW, a lot was going on back then which makes it easy to call duck in a number of directions, one thing I know Oscar was the target at the time.

              With Floyd it's obvious he had many shortcomings it's plain to see and unspoken but it's a case of don't kick a man when he's down.

                  We know what time it was Floyd cherrypicked short short armed flat footed come forward fighters, or anybody over the hill.

                  Its a criticism. Who cares if these emotional Floyd Boys think somebody's hating on him.

                    I rather him prove it in the ring than go by what you think would have happened. It must have been something he was scared of, especially since he backed out of fighting Margarito

                      Floyd retired or was on vacation when the welterweight heats up
