      The reason why Floyd's scared is because one loss could have devestating impact to his moneymaking power, his legacy, and his whole "swagga".

      Nobody is afraid of Floyd because when you fight Floyd you make the money, you're basically cashing yourself out, or you're fighting Floyd to make money then to go back to fighting lesser opposition.

      It's all about risk vs. reward, and really, boxing shouldn't be like that. Floyd is basically clowning all of the championship belts, after he's done there'll be no more champions or rankings.

            ...or do you mean HoF'er David Diaz?

            I'm answering a question about the WHY do people think Floyd is scared. So what Floyd needed to do was fight an undefeated Cotto, a primed Mosley, Paul Williams, Margarito and it appears that people want to see Manny in that group now.

            If I go down the list I can tell you the issues that I have with his opponents selection.

            As for Pacquiao, he did something that I thought he couldn't. That is, go from beating up guys at 126-130 to beating up guys at 147 in a span of what, 2 years? You picked a terrible example and you are NOT talking to a heavy Pac fan. I was going against him too on many of his fights ......He is just making me more of a believer every day.......

            I'm guessing you would agree with Floyd and company in what they say? Floyd senior said, I can't get how a small Manny can come up and beat true WW such as Cotto!

              I agree, I hate the way people say Mayweather is ducking this guy and ducking that guy. people never say 'Pac would duck P.Will' its always mayweather!

                  People believe what they want to believe. But the facts speak for themselves. And we all know that Pacquiao just has to subject himself to random testing and the fight will happen. But like I said before people believe what they want to believe and some say Pacquiao refusing the test means Mayweather is a coward. I just dont understand this logic but it is what it is

                    Floyd is a great fighter with solid wins but Pacquaio is my kind of fighter. Moves to 135 beats Diaz 147 Oscar 140 Hatton 147 Cotto then could have taken a gimmie instead fought Clottey. I love that mentallity in a fighter.
