    So Jro, What Fighters 1999-2010 called out Mayweather when they knew legally the fight couldnt happen?

    Wheater it was because Floyd was legally invovled in a contract with another fighter, or etc???

    what do you think?

      Julio Cesar Chavez? Jesus Chavez had his moments in there and this was Floyd pre Jose Luis Castillo who was a poor man version of JCC.

      At 130 it would of been an interesting fight.

        who do you think?
        2004 Spadafora cuz he couldn't get a license since he was in trouble with the law.

        But, he could of fought him in 2003.

        Cotto never really called him out.

        I am not sure if a Paul Williams fight could be made due to the Muhammad Ali act. But, I don't know what kind of contract Al Haymon has with Floyd or P-Will.

        Who else? Who am I missing?

          Why call somebody out if you know there is no way in hell that fight could be made? Just cuz it can seem that you wiling to fight anybody and everybody is just avoiding you?
          Typical Floyd move. Not flaming, but he has done this on several occasions.

              So whats your take on the fighters who call Floyd out? If Floyd doesn't call people out hes scared if he does hes bluffing. He cant win.

                And Mayweather improved for there on. Thing is Mayweather was so athletically gifted at SFW that he didn't need to get in the pocket, so he wasn't as developped in that department as he is now. Now he'll bend at the waist, go in with his shoulder to set up the right hook/ uppercut to the body. He's also realy sneaky at using his forearm/ elbow to line up the right hand. Not to mention he's bigger now. We're not gonna see Mayweather get pushed around like that anymore unless he faces a much bigger opponent. Also looking at the success Frankie Randall had, I honestly don't see Chavez giving Floyd all that much trouble. Mayweather beats Chavez at any weight IMO.

                  What other times has Mayweather "done this ?" I'm talking specifically about the Tszyu situation. And yes you are flaming. This back and forth was going intelligently until you contributed with your typical childish comments.

                    My take is I see alot of b.s. in this thread about Floyd calling out these fighters and by them not accepting they are somehow "scared" or were ducking him. Hamed, Morales, Barrera Tszyu etc never ducked Floyd. To say such things is very foolish and naive.

                      Spadafora career is the most dissapointing in this era. He call mayweather out night and day because he claims Mayweather disrespected him, and he felt like Mayweather didnt show him any respect. BLAH BLAH .. but then the dude gets arrested for shooting of his pregnant girlfriend. And then a year later he drives his car into a parked police car. This dude I swear should not been mention as a guy Mayweather supposably ducked.

                      and he 2003 Mayweather was already in a contract to defend his title against sosa and Paul was already in a contract to fight dorin a month later...

                      But anyways,
                      I thought you was going to bring up Winky Wright,
