my point is no one asked him to retire, he did it for his own convenience. While he was retired, all these other top guys started to gain name and started building resumes, cotto, margarito, mosley, pdub... The list of challengers started piling up. Now that he finally came back and wanted reclaim what was his he picks marquez?
he was gone for 21 months he needed to shake off the ring rust. What dont you get about that??? Immediately after that fight he started calling out the p4p number 1 fighter...lol.
he could've "unretired" again sooner and fought a semi decent welter right? But of course he just wants big money fights, and i don't fault him for that, but this gives a reason for people to think he was ducking the top fighters at that time.
he didnt want to work with arum. Cotto and marg are promoted by him.
if he hadn't retired and kept fighting, he wouldn't have needed this tune-up, he would've disposed margarito, cotto, mosley, etc. But he chose to retire and these are now the top welters, whether you want to accept it or not.
well this doesnt matter because he retired. Now hes back.
is he entitled to have his tune-up? Yes.
Should a lightweight even be considered as a legit fight at welterweight even as a tune up fight? You tell me.
"you tell me" who else should he have fought for july 19th the original date that wouldve been a tune up??
should you be surprised if people started saying he's ducking top welters when he stayed retired during the reign of these fighters only to come back and pick a lightweight as a challenger? Well, should you?
only ******s say that. He came back to fight pacman....but he needs 24 days to recover from a bloodtest. Jmm was a tune up.
dude, even larry merchant thinks floyd boring....if you make a poll askin if floyd is boring ,majority would agree.....
Larry merchant also hates Floyd. Many people who like another fighter near Floyd's division hates Floyd. Merchant has never been someone who is netrual. What about the rest of the HBO staff? They are not as negative about Floyd as he is. Again if you like another fighter then fine, don't try to write history though.

i knew youd say that........larry is like many boxing fans, they just dont like boring fighters......he has good reasons.....
I don't know how anyone can bring Williams name up.. IS paq facing him? hell no.. he was scared of a paper champ who is not even as tall as Williams.
What does Pacquiao have to do with any of this?? I'm comparing being a Floyd fan to being a Williams fan. Not saying Floyd should fight Williams. That's what's wrong with nutthugging f@ggots. You say one bad thing about Floyd or Pacquiao and you're automatically a baised fan of the other. ****
Who is Floyd afriad of? And why would he be scared inside in the ring? Please explain.
"**** he does" What did he do?
It's almost not worth arguing about it because Mayweather fans use and believe the same lame ass excuses Floyd does. Floyd hasn't done **** at ww since he fought Baldy in 06! Now the excuse for not fighting Marg is because of Arum? He turned down 8 million dollars to fight Marg. It was a clear duck. He had the chance to fight Cotto and didn't. It's true that Cotto ducked him at 140 but why didn't Floyd fight him at 147? He lives in PR? I'm gonna retire from boxing not let boxing retire me? Oh and the "**** that he does".. How about coming in at 146 against 144 Marquez in his last fight? That was a ***** move.. I wish more people can appreciate Floyd like I do. I like watching him fight but I don't swallow everything he says. Just like I like Pacquiao but he made himself look sketchy as **** with the roid situation.
i knew youd say that........larry is like many boxing fans, they just dont like boring fighters......he has good reasons.....
You knew I would say it because its true. Larry doesn't like Floyd as a person an it translates in how he calls his fights. How many boring fights has Floyd had? Who were they against?
This post makes no sense. Floyd is the biggest star in boxing bar none. He draws the most and people talk about him the most. That can't be argued. Men lie, women lie, numbers don't.
He chases BIG MONEY FIGHTS.
What dont you understand about that?
Exactly... if u can bring the money I dont care who it is!!! he will fight them!!
what does pacquiao have to do with any of this?? I'm comparing being a floyd fan to being a williams fan. Not saying floyd should fight williams. That's what's wrong with nutthugging f@ggots. You say one bad thing about floyd or pacquiao and you're automatically a baised fan of the other. ****
it's almost not worth arguing about it because mayweather fans use and believe the same lame ass excuses floyd does. Floyd hasn't done **** at ww since he fought baldy in 06! Now the excuse for not fighting marg is because of arum? He turned down 8 million dollars to fight marg. It was a clear duck.
how was it a duck when he fought the lineal ww champ for the same amount of cash and he didnt have to work with arum to do it.
he had the chance to fight cotto and didn't. it's true that cotto ducked him at 140 but why didn't floyd fight him at 147? He lives in pr? I'm gonna retire from boxing not let boxing retire me?
glad you admit cotto was spooked sitiing ringside at the gatti fight...lol. Bob arum. Bob arum. Bob arum.bob arum.
you think floyd was talking about cotto. He was talking about how all his favorite fighters he liked can barely talk now..so he said boxing will not retire him..in other words i wot fight pass my welcome.
oh and the "**** that he does".. How about coming in at 146 against 144 marquez in his last fight? That was a ***** move..
he didnt make the weight. The hell do you want him to do? He didnt make weight it happens...lol. He gave jmm some extra dough. How was it a ***** move????he didnt make weight genius.
i wish more people can appreciate floyd like i do. I like watching him fight but i don't swallow everything he says. Just like i like pacquiao but he made himself look sketchy as **** with the roid situation.
