    No I am laughing at anyone who says Floyd ducked a guy who fought at 170 recently.

      The proof is in the common knowledge of boxing fans. I am not going to dig through articles and videos to prove you wrong because you are an ignorant punk who cannot engage in logical debate. Anyone who has been following boxing for more than five minutes is well aware what I am saying is factual.

        Acri had been approached by promoter Bob Arum (of Top Rank) about the possibility of fighting Floyd Mayweather in the Pretty Boy’s hometown of Grand Rapids, MI. After some deliberation, Madison Square Garden was chosen as the more “neutral” location, as well as the one that would land the bigger gate, but in May of 2004 the New York State Athletic Commission refused to license Spadafora despite the fact that he had not even been tried, much less convicted. That caused him to lose out on a purse that may have been as much as a million dollars.

          Oh ok I was about to say lol. But, in reality that fight would of taken place at 154. Where Floyd fought Oscar. But, I don't consider it ducking. However, if Floyd would of fought him. I would of had mad respects for him. Where I probably would be his #1 fan right now lol. But, is not ducking cuz that was not Floyd weightclass. However, you can say that would of been the same equivalent of JMM fighting Floyd at 147. Look how much respect JMM got for that. I think Floyd would of gotten the same. Especially from me. And, imagine if he would of won. Who could argue his greatness? I don't think nobody could of.

              Right I am just saying Winky is huge and has fought at 170 and 160 recently, to say that Floyd ducked him is a little silly cause they were never in the same division. Also, JMM moved up to fight Floyd cause he is a cash cow, and FMJ moved up to face DLH cause he is a cash cow, Winky is the opposite, Floyd is the bigger name in that fight. Not saying it is right, its just the way Floyd does business. It is also tougher to move up divisions the higher up you get, as there are more pounds in between divisions.

              I agree, but im sure some people on this board would find a way to give Floyd ****.

                  If you look at that date. It was around May around 2004. Which is true that happened. And, I Floyd couldn't get the fight and instead moved up to 140 to fight 'Chop Chop' Corley. But, I was talking about 2003 and when Spadafora said in 2002 he wanted to fight the winner of Floy-Castillo. The whole thing when he shot his girl happened early 2004. But, in 2003 they could of fought But, Floyd instead chose to fight Sosa and Ndou. If I am not mistaken Floyd said something like Sadafora should fight Dorin and that he fight winner. But, my point is. Floyd should of fought both instead of Sosa and Ndou.

                    I agree, but it would of been nice to see. He would of gotten respect win/lose. But, if anybody gives Floyd **** for 'ducking' Winky. Then you know they hating. Again I think Floyd has avoided top fighters. But, saying he ducked Winky would be ridiculous and just plain hating.
