    Who did Mayweather duck and what time period?

    Who did Mayweather duck and when?

    Who did he go on to face instead of facing the person he should have, if you know what i mean

    Remember:

    Mayweather is human, a man.. he cant fight everybody

    According to most...

    Antonio Margarito
    Miguel Cotto
    Shane Mosley

    Any other name is bull**** if you ask me...

    He fought Baldomir instead of Margarito...fought Hatton instead of Cotto...and stayed retired when Shane was calling his name...

    I only fault him for not fighting Miguel personally...

        Definitions of ducking:
        1:Giving up your belt rather than facing your mandatory
        2:A contract with a good payday is offered to you and you turn it down, to fight a lesser fighter.

        Does anyone here know the specifics of what happened between him and Margarito? I'm told the contract Arum offered him, had unacceptable clauses in it.

          When did Cotto and Arum make an offer to Floyd???

          Shane had a chance to fight him at 135...He ducked him then...Then After Vargas Merchant asked Shane 3 times...Why not fight Floyd....Shane had a toothache.

            Yeah that was pretty weak, one of the worst excuses I've ever heard.

              Bro Floyd got ut his promotional contract with Arum for 750,000 dollars......ARUM is still pissed to this day about that...considering the amount of millions Floyd made with out him.

              Arum offred Floyd a Margarito fight..........for 8,000,000 dollars.

              Floyd fought Baldimir the Lineal WBC WW Champ for 8,000,001 dollars instead.

              Simple **** basically.........

                I know that...I was just saying how others on here feel...

                Its also notable that Arum wouldn't put Cotto anywhere near Floyd at 140...

                  Oh okay my bd.............

                  No to mention....Hatton wanted no pats at 140 either.

                  Cotto and Hatton both changed their minds as they sat ringside at the Gatti fight.

                    Did Arum have to let Floyd go? If he refused to let Floyd go what could of happened?

                    As for the Margarito fight, I was told there was clauses involved like Arum would get options on future fights, or something like that.
