    You're mistaken/deluded if you think Floyd would be the only individual who wouldn't agree to this tournament.

      Not really. **** Floyd. But I can see Clottey, margarito, cotto, berto, and Mosley in this tournament. None of these guys demand huge money other than a couple mill. I don't even know if Berto has earned a million dollar check.

        The best fighting the best? What do you think this is, Showtime's Super Six?

          I don't know man. First of all, they would want some of the fights on PPV. If Cotto is coming off a Pac win??? He's gonna want a lot of dough. Mosley is gonna want a lot of dough.

          Cotto and Mosley will want a minimum of 3 mill for each fight. And they will get it, if not more.

          Throw Floyd in there and....we all know what kind of chaos that would bring.

            There's a better chance of Ali and Tyson fighting for the undisputed Heavyweight title next year than for this to happen.

              That would be sick if it came to fruition. You'd have to put Pac in there though even though he's a JWW.

                  "I think HBO have to make big six welterweight tournament, Mosley, Mayweather, Cotto, Clottey, Berto and Margarito, awwwwww I think it will be FANTASTIC, what do you think?"

                  Why do I have a feeling only one of those guys wouldn't be down for that? lol
                  Mayweather, Cotto, Mosley probably wouldn't be in the tournament. They can already get big fights with each other. Why would they commit to a tournament? They could do Berto/Margarito/Clottey and some other guys and winner gets a title shot or something.

                    Floyd Gayweather Avoid.

                    That's his new name.

                      Gayweather would definitely be the first to say no.
