    I remember very clearly that Floyd called out Cotto at 140 after he beat Gatti in June 2005. At the time, Arum was still Floyd's promoter. Arum chose not to put Cotto in the ring with Mayweather. It was 2.5 years and eight Cotto fights later (against six stiffs and two has beens) that Cotto, Arum and Brian Kenny, Larry Merchant and the all the dumbass haters on this site started calling for Mayweather to fight Cotto. That was after Mayweather decided to retire. Mayweather called out Mosley from 1999 at 135 to 2006 at 147. Mosley refused to fight him for seven years. But after he retired, Mosley suddenly wanted the fight.

    Brian Kenny harassed Mayweather on ESPN prior to his fight with Zab Judah in April 2006 for not fighting Baldomir and Ricky Hatton. He didn't mention Margarito because Margarito was considered the number three welterweight and no one cared about him at the time.

    So, when Cotto and Hatton refused to fight Mayweather at 140 and Mosley refused to fight him for seven years, that was not considered ducking. Yet, when Mayweather chose to retire instead of fighting two guys he had already offered to fight in the past and one that was considered a mid-level fighter at the time (Margarito), he was ducking.


    I want to thank all the haters for showing me the light. I have now figured it out. The only active boxer who has ever ducked anyone is Floyd Mayweather!
    This sums it up...

            He's not a warrior that's why many people don't like him.
