    i wont say he ducked cotto b/c cotto has never said i want to fight floyd.

    i wont say he ducked pac b/c they in different divisions.

    imo he has to answer shanes call. that he missed his chance is for the birds b/c if i remember correctly ricky turned down a fight at 140 and he fought ricky soon as he called him out. so take that shane missed his turn **** and put it in your ass ya heard me.

      Or if he fights Manny regardless of the cotto outcome he is ducking both cotto and Mosley.

      I would hate to be Floyd right now in the sense he is damed if he does and damned if he doesnt
      Only wrong move, any other on your list people really cant complain about.

        Im a known Mayweather supporter. If he doesnt fight any of those guys I would still be a fan but severely disappointed. Then and only then would I slight him on his ATG status. I feel like he came back with an agenda outside of money. I belive he has two fights left that will alter the publics opinion. One is the winner of the november showdown and the other is not the one you would guess. At this point Moseley has rendered himself as an optional fight so if he doesnt fight him I couldnt care less. I think the icing on the cake would be a young lion by the name of Paul Williams. Thats how you finish a great career.

          I just hope that Floyd does more than fight more than twice a year. I don't think it's a matter of Floyd being scared of Shane, why take a dog fight when you can get paid the same for the pony show. Hell we often forget that he's had his wars with Castillo and Castillo took it to him damn near willing their first fight, and his win against Corrales was masterful. 2 saturdays ago was the first time in my opinion that Floyd looked like a real welterweight, so know that he's become a natural welterweight he can get down to real business taking on the likes of Berto, Mosley, Clottey without getting man handled b/c guys Floyd is not very strong and in person he's actually a pretty little guy. Now having recently met Shane I was surprised at how much bigger he was than Floyd 1 year ago.

            As much as I would love to see him fight my boy shane I thinka fight against PWill would be great. He can end the hype job as a farewell to the sport

              Look it's gonna be one of them, y'all said you would be happy with any of the three and he will fight one of them. Pac is the one the public and HBO wants so you know he gonna wait and if Pac wins he will def fight him if the match can be made. I want him to fight Mosley the most and that is the least likely next though. Pac & Cotto the easiest for Floyd.

                If he fights a WELTERWEIGHT, he gets credit from me. Pacman is NOT a welter, and I just don't think he's going to get past Cotto anyway.

                  Pacquiao fought at 147 before but anyway...

                  So by that logic you aren't going to give Cotto any credit if he beats Pac November 14th? Since Pac isn't a welterweight...?

                    Correct. I won't look at a Cotto win over Pacman as much of a victory, considering the size difference. The only thing Cotto may have trouble with is Pacman's speed, and with Cotto's body work, that should be cured by the 8th or so. And while I do give Pacman a chance at a decision win (after all, he's superbly conditioned, and could very concievably outbox Cotto all night and win the decision, if he can get his work done from outside), I just don't think he's big enough to pose a serious KO risk to Cotto.

                    Look, I could be wrong about this, God knows I am often enough, but I don't really see any other outcomes. Credit to Pacman for moving up so far and taking risks like he does...that's what makes the sport exciting, after all...but it skews the fight in the favor of Pacman, completely. If Manny wins, he gets major credit. If Cotto wins, he just beat up a smaller guy. Lose/Lose for Miguel.

                      Or if he fights Manny regardless of the cotto outcome he is ducking both cotto and Mosley.

                      Naaah, if he fights any of them no one can say ****.
