Had Floyd not have fought him, he would have "ducked" the champ in the division. So, though he catches alot of mess for it, Floyd did the right thing by fighting and defeating the champ in the division which was Baldomir.
    Coach, let me put it this way...

    Let us detach Floyd with Baldomir.... now answer my question.

        Picking on Floyd for facing Baldomir is unfair. When Mayweather made the fight against Judah (after Baldy beat him), everyone jumped on him. It was only after Mayweather tooled Baldy that people started ripping on him for fighting him. At the time, it was a logical fight.

            at the time yes, wasn't he the champ? Back then Cotto wasn't ready to fight Floyd, Mosley had a toothache, nobody knew Williams....

            You can only make a case for Margarito(wbo champ) around the time Floyd fought Baldomir...

            Baldomir was the legit champ at 147, none of those guys were.

              This site will be funny as **** to see that PWILL came back down to 147 and Mayweather ends up fighting him March 13th....... even though he has unfinished business with Martinez.

              Either Martinez or PWILL I would like to see Mayweather fight at 147 or 154. Anybody else and Mayweather would be bashed for fighting since Mosley and Berto are fighting Jan 30th. Why wait? Fight now and then the winner of Mosley Berto. THEN later when Manny gets his head out of his sensitive ass they can fight for belts assuming Mayweather and Pac win there fights.

              Wishful thinking on me but I think PWILL @ 147 might be a prospect for March 13th vs Mayweather....

                WTF level was Margarito supposed to be on? Margarito was never that good. I don't see why people don't get it. MArgarito was always a unskilled brawler with a high work rate and a good chin that doesn't put you on any high level in boxing. Fighter like Margarito all eventually get KO'ed and Mosley was the one. Its only but for so long fighters like that can constantly take that kind of punishment before they go into a fight and that chin just doesn't take punches like it used to. Margarito is done!!!! Once that chin is gone he is gone and Mosley was the right one at the right time.

                  News Update!

                  Erik Morrales returns & moves up to a catchweight 145lbs, Mayweather faces the man who beat Pacman...

                  This comes after the news in which negotiations failed after Mayweather couldn't land a fight with Medgoen Singsurat, the first man to KO Pacquiao.

                      yeah he fights baldomir in the blink of an eye, but turns into a whiny bitchh when an elite welter calls him out.. and please dont say baldomir was an elite welter, he beat judah and gatti, who doesnt beat those guys...clottey crushed judah and corrales..2 of floyds biggest wins..when was the last time floyd fought an elite welterweight ? if floyd doesnt fight one of these guys on march 13th, hes a shame to boxing
