    1. I didnt say that.

    2. Thats the exact same standard you apply to Floyd when you talk about guys calling him out when he was the cash cow.

    /QUOTE]

    Margarito had a country behind him they were paying Floyd a career high 8 million and Floyd backed out of it.
    Winky Wright was a top guy Floyd backed out of a fight with him after calling him out.



    What you think people are pulling this info out their azz

      Same old excuses


      Yeah but we ain't talking about when Bob said Cotto was ready we talking about when Cotto said Cotto was ready and called out Floyd after beating Mosley.

      How did Floyd respond he went on vacation for two years.

          especially now that he is a free agent.
          Jose Zepeda would be a good scrap for a stay-busy fight at 140 for Devin Haney.

            Mayweather said his 2005 fight with Cotto stablemate Henry Bruseles was a "tester." When the fight proved non-competitive, Mayweather-Cotto talk ended.


            lying again. See above.

            Yeah he called him out again when Floyd was cash cow.

                Stop crying. Floyd wasn't a draw and he was a lightweight. Oscar wasn't obligated at the time he was fighting Shane, Vargas hell even Hopkins at mw wtf are you talking about.

                Nobody was watching or listening to lightweight Floyd but a handful of hardcore boxing fans.

                When he stopped stinking up the joint with the likes of Baldymir and started playing the villian, he started gaining some momentum.

                  I asked a simple question based on your clear double standard.

                  If ODH isn’t obligated to fight him, Floyd isn’t obligated to fight anyone that calls him out.

                  That isn’t true. He had an HBO deal at this point. He wasnt top dog, but he was a known commodity with 2 FOTY awards.

                  He gained momentum when he left TR.

                  Was Manny protecting his 7 when he was off for 2 years between Thurman and Ugas?

                    So what you're saying is that Paqcquiao was afraid to fight his own leftovers at 154, but down for 145. Right?

                    You're going around in circles. When pac brutalized cotto at 145 is it really necessary to talk about pac needing to rematch, let alone at 154. Pac offered 147 when he didn't really need to, yet you don't want to credit pac with that?
                    what are you playing at bud and being sarcastic for? Are you saying pac is the B side and shouldve fought cotto at 154, cotto calls the shots does he?

                    You saying pac s scared this, pac s scared that? So floyd not offering Nel o fight at 154 what does that make floyd? Was floydvscared to give pac a rematch?
                    I mean the standards for pac so high he is expected to fight cotto at 154 and if he don't floyd diehards say he's only brave enough to fight cotton at 147?
                    Do yourself and everyone a favour don't reply to me.

                      They all want to be perfectionists, including Haney. But nobody is Floyd. They aren’t smart enough nor talented enough to become what Floyd’s legacy is.

                      They need to stop being concerned with record and become concerned with money and legacy. Make your money, establish your legacy. Cause if you try to do a Vargas, you will burn out and if you try to do a Khan/Broner, you’ll get your pants pulled down.
