    his loss after he knocked out Margarito. To me, that would
    have been the smartest move for his career since he beat the man
    that beat the man that beat him AND then went on to avenge his
    loss to Cotto? Floyd and Pac would have been looking for Shane.
    Shane played himself bottom line.
    So let me get this straight,

    its ok for Floyd, but not for anyone else?

    Can you explain how that works?

      I hope Mayweather doesnt go on with Brian Kenney any time soon because you know Kenneys gonna let him have it!
      Mosley is saying what true boxing fans have been saying for years about Mayweather.
      He wouldnt DARE step in the ring with Cotto or Margarito or anyone that can punch.
      Shane Mosley THANK YOU for saying what we fans have been saying all along.
      We all know Mayweather is scared ****less.
      If that was me and I was embarrassed like that I would have sign a contract that night but Mayweather is going to pick and choose.
      Look....Shane is the MAIN ****ing man at welterweight right now so their is NO excuse why Mayweather shouldnt fight him.
      Who is he going to fight next Berto?
      That might be a little dangerous for Floyd.
      Im just sick of this guy he should have stayed retired....****ing chicken ****.

        Floyd gets knocked for it, that's the problem.

            Floyd gets knocked for avoiding the best in his division.

              i can...

              its ok for him, because, he IS the money in the fights....

              WHOEVER he fights, he will get a bigger cut, so he's going to fight the guys that offer the most money.

              mosley, on the other hand, will probably make LESS than anybody he fights, so he shouldn't be picky.

              simply stated, floyd can b/c he's in a position where he can do so.

                So you care more about how much money Floyd makes than who he actually fights?


                Oh these women on boxing scene.





                When we as fans start getting a cut of the fighters checks,


                I'll start caring about who makes what,

                until then,


                I'm a boxing fan who simply cares about results.




                But what you said made no sense since Floyd never really was a money maker until DLH put him on. You know, the same DLH he chased for a money fight?


                So please try another explanation because you failed the first time.

                  see, shane won't get pacquiao or mayweather any time soon.

                  truth be told, a PW fight is probably his biggest payday right now, and not only that, it solves the dispute shane is having w/ hbo to get airtime. think about the predicament shane is in.....dude can't even get airtime.....hbo keeps pushing his ass back....u dont think he's desperate???


                  so while a PW fight makes sense financially for shane, it doesn't for floyd right now, b/c he's got other options, and is not starving for a fight or airtime.

                  simple enough?

                    You should care, because the end of the day boxers could give a **** about you and they care about money. There's a reason they're called prizefighters. Every boxer is doing it.

                    What relevance did DLH have to Pacquiao?

                      no, but unlike you dudes that come on here and post ****** ****, for the purpose of reading your own posts, i UNDERSTAND why dudes take certain fights.

                      if i come to you and say, "i'll give you $20 to jump out of an airplane, or $45 to ride a bike to the corner..." which one would you pick.

                      of course, i'd love to see floyd beat the **** outta shane, but i understand the position BOTH boxers are in....floyd beats marquez, pacquiao, shane, and cotto, but the fact of the matter is - his OPTIONS include a mega-fight w/ pacman who is a great draw and very popular, and would guarantee a super event with the most profit, or a big fight with shane mosley, who's a good fighter, but has little drawing power behind him....

                      take an economics class my man, and it can be elementary, and you'll understand....
