Lets Use RA the Rugged Man's logic and pick Floyd's next fight!

[Danny Gunz]

So in his interview RA stated that Floyd needed to fight guys his own size. When Floyd countered that he faced De La Hoya at 154, RA claimed he needed to fight guys his own size that were younger than him.
Ok, RA, lets do it your way.

The fighters RA requested Floyd to face were primiarily:
Williams
Mosley
Cotto

Now, as we know, Williams fights at 160, and is not Floyd's size, so he can be eliminated according to RA's logic.
Mosley is Floyd's size, but unfortunately, is 38 years old, far older than Floyd.
According to RA's logic, we can eliminate him as well.
That really only leaves Miguel Cotto.
(Sure we could talk about a guy like Berto here, but lets be realistic, he is not ready and not proven)

Now we know Cotto is facing Pac on the 14th of November. And if Cotto loses, it would be foolish for Floyd to fight him, he should fight the guy that proved BETTER than the opponent RA suggested, Manny Pac.
If Cotto wins, Floyd should undeniably fight him.

Essentially, RA's logic used in the interview has Floyd fighting the winner of Pac vs Cotto, something that the majority of fans have been clamoring before since the fight and Mayweathers return have been announced.

RA just wanted him to fight a legit top 5 WW. And all the fans want floyd to fight the winner of pac-cotto, but floyd is the only one who has not said he wants this fight, and in the interview hinted towards not fighting either of them, adn floyd showed no interst in shane.

So who is he gonna fight, RA was just saying he wants a legitimate WW fight

Come on my dude...really? You're taking what someone posted on a forum about Hatton (let alone one of the dudes lives in London) and are basing it as the Boxing world believing Hatton was THE guy to beat Floyd??

SMH...

Ah..

It just so happens I was watching the Gatti fight... Fascinating fight really.



Hatton was there... 2:00



and Cotto was there... 0:10


and you know what? They both look stunned at Floyd's performance... LMAO.

but thats not the point... the point is...



2:40... They are seriously discussing Floyd fighting Hatton. The two opponents they mention...the ONLY two..are Cotto and Hatton. And they readily admit Hatton had a bigger "economic cushion"...So before, and coming up to, the fight...Hatton was considered one of the top guys for Mayweather to fight. Only AFTER, did people start their whining.

LMAO @ u cats

[Easy-E]

False.

Again...you're conveniently twisting **** around.

He said Floyd fought an older, bloated JMM who came up to a weight he'd never fought at. Floyd then replies, "Im 32 and he's 36...who cares?"

He also asked Floyd, "Why don't you fight Shane Mosley?" Floyd then asks RA if Mosley is on steroids.

If you'd like me to upload those specific points of the convo back to back I can. The only thing RA was inaccurate with was when Mosley took an L, sue him if he got heated in the argument, because we all know Floyd did.

"Leonard aint better than me because he lost to Camacho" - Floyd

...and we're supposed to believe that too right? LOL

RA said when Floyd foght DLH he was too old. And he needed to fight someone his size and his own age.

[FranjoTuđman]

[Easy-E]

Goes to show all the ****** ducking accusations Floyd has been through, yet he shuts everyone up and they come up with new names.

Lol "Judah will beat Mayweather, he presents too many problems for Mayweather"


"Hatton-Mayweather needs to happen!!! Floyd can't rob the fans of this fight, it needs to happen!!!"


looooooooool

Those were the guys who would beat Floyd back then...and Floyd fought and beat them both.
Now it is guys like Cotto and Pac and SSM.
Floyd will fight them and probably beat whoever he faces.

[Easy-E]

Come on my dude...really? You're taking what someone posted on a forum about Hatton (let alone one of the dudes lives in London) and are basing it as the Boxing world believing Hatton was THE guy to beat Floyd??

SMH...

That displays that there was popular demand for a Floyd v Hatton fight. That is common knowledge, and just because you werent following boxing then doesnt mean it isnt true.
Check the HBO videos too.
Your comments have been proven wrong.

Bull****. He attacked him and his resume and showed no class. Floyd hasnt even signed his next fight! Doesnt it make sense to wait until Floyd decides who he will fight next before you talk **** about his next opponent?
If Floyd signs a Mosley or Cotto fight next RA will look like an idiot.

De La Hoya wasn't even an active fighter by the time Floyd fought him. You can count on one hand how many fights Oscar had in a 4 yr span up to the fight with Floyd. I look at that win like I look at Oscar beating Chavez, of course you gotta give him credit for it...but it was indeed an older version of Oscar De La Hoya. Nobody can deny that.

He came back and dominated Mayorga and was nearly on even odds to beat Floyd. If Floyd and Mosley fought now the odds would be more heavily in Floyds favor, due to Mosley's age and recent loss. Either way, you cant hate on Floyd for facing DLH becuase of his age and then say he should fight a 38 year old Mosley. I am displaying flaws in logic of RA, not my personal beliefs or opinions.
