    And...? Floyd was trying to get MEGA fight with Manny, which is one of the biggest reasons he came back. Don't be so dense, pull.

        He'll be challenged by Mosley. The guy isn't as old and frail as he keeps getting made out to be on here.

          Hope your right!

          Floyd has been blessed (or cursed depending how you look at it) for being a great fighter surrounded by good fighters. Hopefully we get to see this era's two greats go at it later.

            ifs don't work when it comes to floyd--you just posted woulda coulda and shouldas---it didnt' happen and zab was dominated--the scorecards indicated that--it's not floyd's problem that judah is a front runner--it's zab's problem--floyd knew zab would fold in the mid to late rounds, and that's what happened---floyd fought a great fight and dominated judah--floyd tells you guys about his opponents before he fights them and it ends up being correct--that's a testament to how gifted floyd is---so putting if judha could fight a whole 12 rounds is and irrelevant excuse from you, that's it---floyd was just better that night---and he's not being forced to fight shane--coz he never had to fight shane--floyd doesn't have to do anything when it comes to boxing--he chose to fight shane, coz he knows he's better than shane and wants to prove it---stop making up excuses--

              pull counter--floyd wasn't forced to fight shane---and as far as mosley calling out floyd before the berto fight was signed---floyd called out shane before the baldomir fight was signed----when shane had a huge victory over vargas--floyd also called out shane after he beat bruselles, before the gatti fight was signed--floyd called out shane back in 1999 and was trying to get the fight, before the forrest fight was signed---floyd is right---shane waited until he had 5 lossses and was at the back half of his career to call out floyd, and maybe he wanted a payday, maybe he just wanted to prove he still has it, but it was shane's fault that the fight didn't happen years ago, not floyd's----now it's happening coz it makes the most sense for floyd to fight shane other than manny---and floyd wanted super fights, which he got in hatton, de la hoya, and jmm--now he's back to fight shane and manny--and he will dominate them---so keep watching--

                floyd will size up potential opponents and calculate who poses the most risk. the ones that are risky fights, he'd rather not fight and make excuses as to why they can't happen. the ones he knows he can beat with minimal risk to his '0' he will call out.
                Yeah, I get your point. You believe he chooses that lesser fighter of the available options.

                Two questions:

                1st question (2nd attempt): Who in your opinion could Floyd fight that would cause you to say " he isn't ducking this time". (since you give him no credit up to this point for his choices of opponents)

                2nd question: Are you saying that Mosley is a lesser fighter than Pacquiao and the reason Floyd took the hard line on the blood testing is because knew Pac wouldn't test and abandon negotiations..... giving Floyd a chance to fight Shane for less money that Pacquiao for more?

                  Your lack of knowledge or blind hate for Floyd is showing in this post.

                  Do you really think Judah just stop fighting on his own, and that Floyd didn't have anything to do in slowing Judah down in the late rounds?

                  If only Judah could fight for 12 rounds, if only Delahoya used his jab for the entire fight is another one. But who took away the jab.

                    He certainly didn't want to fight Shane. Remember, he's being FORCED to fight Shane. He got in trouble with the IRS, so he fought Marquez. He thought that he could fight Pacquiao (who is a better and more money-generating fight), but for some reason Mayweather made it difficult for Packie to accept it. Maybe Pacquiao didn't want to spend 5 1/2 hours a day 3 out of 10 days trying to test himself for USADA. So obviously Mayweather doesn't want to lose all his **** and livelihood to the IRs, so he's gotta go to work somehow.
                    So now that he took a fight that most of you didn't think he would take, he did because he was forced? Is that the new strategy to keep the hate going (rhetorical).

                    Who cares why he took it, or why you think he took it, point is he took it and you can't take away that from him.

                      floyd didn't want to fight mosley, he was throwing names around like malignaggi and nate campbell. HBO said fight mosley or go to hell. so floyd was forced to fight mosley.

                      having said that, *****s like you have been trying for years now to convince us that mosley is old, shot, and don't deserve a shot at floyd.

                      therefore floyd was forced to fight mosley and because mosley is past his prime (according to *****s) its a fight floyd know he can win.
                      Why does it matter what "*****s" think in Mayweather taking this fight?

                      Are you implying that Mayweather was ducking Mosley in fear of losing but then joined boxingscene and found out that his "*****" fans said that Mosley is old, shot and changed his mind???
