      What about it? I don't defend Floyd's quotes.

      Floyd is not my god, Pac isyour god.

        Baldomir coming off a near Decade win streak
        Oscar after Oscar had one of the best KOs of his career against Mayorga
        undefeated Hatton after Hatton had just ko'd jose luis castillo
        Marquez coming off a two ko win streak


        Yes zab Judah was coming off a loss but the fight was made before the Baldomir bout, and everyone assumed Zab would come through


        Pacquiao fought

        Morrales after loss to Zahir
        Morrales after loss to Barrera
        Barerra after loss to Marquez
        DLH year after Floyd beats him
        Hatton year after Floyd Destroyed him
        Cotto year after Margs beat him
        Clottey year after Cotto beat him


        Only guy Pac recently fought on the upswing was Diaz

        Floyd fights people on the upswing, Roach/Pac waits till another fighter finds a weakness and then will accept the challenge.
        This is what Floyd fans do all they do is say dumb ****.. DLH, Hatton, Cotto was coming off wins. The first fight with Barrera which is the one that really matterd Barrera was not only coming off a winning streak but was top 5 P4P fighter in the world... And, the #1 featherweight...

        But, see I can play that game with Floyd also but it is just ****** you know... Like Floyd fought JMM a year after Pac beat him., Floyd fought DLH after Hopkins KO'd him, Floyd fought Judah after baldomir and no it was signed be the Baldomir fight stop saying lies, Floyd fought Mitchell after Kostya beat him, Floyd fought Gatti after Arturo had all them wars, Floyd fougth Corley after the Judah lost, Floyd fought Sosa after lossing to Spadday, Floyd fought Castillo after Castillo had two gift decisions against Stevie Johnston, Floyd fought Chicanito after Oscar KO'd him...

                On sky sports today they interviewed somone in the states (didn't catch who it was whether it was a promoter etc) who said Floyd would be announcing an opponent 'In the next few days' asked if they would be a 'big name' someone ppl in the UK would have heard of he said YES but sounded very unconvincing in terms of 'Big name'.

                  Thinking about it for a couple minutes, I wouldn't be that surprised. Both men make a ton of $$, it would outsell Pac-Clottey by a lot, they'll do it at 154 to show that Oscar is better when not so drained, and they'll effectively give Arum the middle finger. From a business standpoint, what's not to like?

                  From a boxing fan standpoint I'd be pretty upset, there is no need for this.
