    At what point did I say that? I simply stated the fact that he refuses to fight black americans. Which is true his record don't lie.

      Pac negotiated with Mayweather when the Pac-Hatton purse negotiation stalled. Mayweather priced himself out for demanding 70% of the purse money. That alone proves that Pac will fight anyone regardless of skin color.

          In the next few years boxing may lose Floyd, Pac, Hopkins, and Mosley...I don't know what happens after that

              Going back to the original post, which I think was pulled from the Ring Magazine, Holt isn't to far off from the general public whom aren't feeding into the Pac-Machine hype. I don't think it was a "hater" thing to say...but I believe the post isn't making a fair connection between the two athletes (Holt and Hopkins) because one is talking about the quality of opposition whereas Hopkins is celebrating the "marketability" and appeal of Pac. So...I think it's a weak thread, moreso, people IMO, shouldn't knock Holt for having an opinion. Basically it's not apples to apples. lol

              If anything Holt is an entertaining boxer, obviously not appealing in the mass market nor does he have the skill caliber of the elitest Hopkins.

                \

                so if Pac chose Mosely rather than Cotto, does that mean he is ducking Puerto Ricans?

                so if Pac chose Bradley rather than Hatton, does that mean he is ducking Brits?

                Just be patient, hopefully a Black American named Mayweather will be next and everyones birthday wishes will be fullfilled.

                  you're a floyd fan so im assuming you might understand this concept: would bradley and holt generate the same amount of money as Cotto?

                    I think a lot of what he says he means, I also think he says things, in particularly this, for other reasons... like purposely just to spite Floyd. Bernard doesn't like Floyd... obviously.

                      Mosley at 140 he's ranked higher than Cotto and said he would go 60/40 at 140.
