The "Myth" that Mayweather is a "Ducker"

[El Castigador]

You really have some nerve with that statement.

Two fighters that called Floyd out on a regular.

Yes, I blame Floyd. When arum had no problem making the fights happen, I blame Floyd.

Now go back to ignoring me like you always do...You know **** about boxing bro.

All you know is Floyd and PW. You flip flopping **** Sucker.

Floyd wanted:

Hatton
Cotto
Kosta Zu
Mosley
Oscar

ALL IN THEIR PRIME.

Links please........................

Stevie and Floyd spoke on a local radio station, and espn back then. No link. Like I said youngster, if you followed Floyd like you claim, you know what I say is true.

The Spadafora stuff is on youtube, can't pull it up at school. Do the reaserch.

[WhoreUs]

Wait, it's just a myth?

Floyd wanted:

Hatton
Cotto

Bro I never said anything about any of those fighters. The only two people I have ever considered Floyd to have avoid, were Stevie and Spadafora...No one else.

Please miss me with the bull****.

Matter of fact, no I won't leave it at that. Stevie called out Floyd for almost two years (he was the WBC champ at the time), Floyd said he would pass. Do to the fact that he didn't want to fight a Southpaw. Stevie went on to fight Castillio twice after Floyd declined. the rest is history.

Spadafora said he whooped Floyd in sparring, and that he knocked him down a couple of times. He went on to say he would beat Floyd in the ring. He called Floyd out many times after his fights. The most disrepectful was after the Manfredy fight.

Like I said, you don't know ****...So stop acting like it.

do u got any proof like a video or article or should we take your word? matter of fact, Castillo fought Stevie before Floyd if I'm not mistaken so I highly doubt that Floyd would duck Johnston to fight his conqueror....that makes no logical sense


and who did Paul really even beat to make him this world beater worth ducking?

[HandSpeed303]

Floyd wanted:

Hatton
Cotto
Kosta Zu
Mosley

I can see from this post you only started watching Floyd at 140. Am I correct?

If so, no wonder you have no clue about what I speak of.

Wait, it's just a myth?

isn't floyd duckage more legendary than myth?

Dude, chill out. Cotto was ready for Floyd at welterweight, Floyd retired. Mosley didn't jump two divisions to duck Floyd, he jumped two divisions because he was a very big lightweight and got to fight Oscar freaking De La Hoya at welterweight, a better and bigger fighter at that time than Floyd. He is screaming his name right now and Floyd has done everything he can to talk Mosley down as a potential opponent. In 2005 Mosley was at 154 and didn't want to fight Floyd because Floyd was not a big star and Mosley was a moron looking for big money fights he wasn't going to get.

Just because everyone says, and I agree, that Floyd would easily beat Margarito does not mean Floyd should never have fought him. Fighting Baldomir is nothing to blame Floyd for, but let's say after the Oscar fight, again a fight because of money I don't blame Floyd for, why didn't Floyd fight Margarito then? He was much more well known at that time, a bigger star than Baldomir ever was. How about Paul Williams at that time, if he didn't want to fight Cotto or Margarito?

With Floyd there are lots of fights left on the table, while at the same time all these other fighters have been proving themselves against each other. Cotto fights Margarito and Cotto, Mosley fights Cotto and Margarito, Margarito fights Cotto, Mosley, and Paul Williams, and Floyd retired when he could have made lots of money against any of them.

paul williams was a green fighter then, someone on Floyd's level doesn't fight green fighters. Mosley wasn't even at 147 when Floyd retired. Cotto had just got there and beat nobody of note before Floyd retired. margarito was always a joke and u don't decline Hatton for Margarito

This revisionist history got to quit!!!!!

That is true that Castillo fought Stevie. That fight was made after Floyd turned down the Stevie fight, do to a style. That is a clear duck. It had nothing to do with money, or who he was (Stevie was considered the man with the WBC belt).

Stevie and Castillo fought twice. Watch the fights and determain who you think won Both. Most say Stevie was robbed...But whatever.

The Spadafors stuff is on youtube. I have no links for the Stevie stuff, but like I said, if you have been following Floyds career like you say, you know I'm not making it up.

So whatever.

dude, chill out. Cotto was ready for floyd at welterweight, floyd retired. Mosley didn't jump two divisions to duck floyd, he jumped two divisions because he was a very big lightweight and got to fight oscar freaking de la hoya at welterweight, a better and bigger fighter at that time than floyd. He is screaming his name right now and floyd has done everything he can to talk mosley down as a potential opponent. In 2005 mosley was at 154 and didn't want to fight floyd because floyd was not a big star and mosley was a moron looking for big money fights he wasn't going to get.


floyd was also ready for cotto at 147..."id love to fight miguel cotto"......mayweather said that......."ill fight you down the road when its a bigger and better fight"...he said that to margarito who went on to lose to a prospect named paul williams. Ending any floyd fight.

Floyd signed to fight the best fighter on the planet..and the number 1 ranked ww...manny pac......floyd and ellorbe said if the talks fall through with pac then they are fighting shane.

just because everyone says, and i agree, that floyd would easily beat margarito does not mean floyd should never have fought him. Fighting baldomir is nothing to blame floyd for, but let's say after the oscar fight, again a fight because of money i don't blame floyd for, why didn't floyd fight margarito then? He was much more well known at that time, a bigger star than baldomir ever was. How about paul williams at that time, if he didn't want to fight cotto or margarito?

arum said that...not me....i think he used the words sparring session...and thats what you get when you put the fastest ww vs. The slowest ww....its not rocket science.

After the oscar fight...where he made a trillion dollars..he only wanted fights that bring big money...which is why he fought ricky hatton.

Again if floyd is looking for big money fights why would he fight williams??...i guess you forgot cotto..shane..berto..cintron,,, pavlik..hopkins among others also dont want to fight paul.

with floyd there are lots of fights left on the table, while at the same time all these other fighters have been proving themselves against each other. Cotto fights margarito and cotto, mosley fights cotto and margarito, margarito fights cotto, mosley, and paul williams, and floyd retired when he could have made lots of money against any of them.

is floyd still retired??? He came back didnt he? Why are we bitching and crying about 2007??

Floyd gave schafer a list...it had cotto...mosley and pacman on it.

Hes signed to fight pac..the best fighter in the world....and the p4p king...

Why are we mad that floyd couldnt fight every good fighter on the planet.
