    Gtfoh.
    Next, was a year and a half removed from the ring Shane who was war torn to begin with. Wheres the glory in being proud about that?

    You ducking the real question. Which is why not the 147 beltholder Mosley fresh off the Margarito win, than a lightweight Marquez after a 2 year layoff where you watched all the best guys @ 147 pound on each other. Floyd weight bullied Marquez on the scales to boot. It can't be because Mosley had 5 losses, Baldimir had like 9 like my man said earlier.
    Hell Cotto beat a better version of Mosley than Floyd did.

        Martinez offered to come down to 150 when Floyd was a title holder at 154.

        He ducked Margarito before buying out his contract with Arum. Turned down a career high payday.

        Mosley was trying to get Floyd since 135, fact!

        After Manny agreed to testing, Floyd openly admits he "marinated" the fight for five years. His words.

        Cotto wanted him before he was damaged goods.

        Stevie Johnston was a slick southpaw that Floyd didn't want to fight at the time.

        Freitas was no joke, and Floyd wanted no part of that.

        Spinks wanted Floyd, but Floyd refused to fight him.
        -The Martinez was correct

        -Manny refused testing, no way around that one

        -Cotto was with TR and I never heard of any Floyd talks

        -Johston I was a big fan, no reason to duck him and they were not on a collision course.

        -Frietas, look at the Casamayor fight.

        -Never heard of Sphinks going after Floyd.

        -On Maro he opted to fight Baldomir for the same money leaving TR.

          I don't even think the Martinez one was correct. The only way that one is correct is if you expected Mayweather to fight Martinez over Cotto that was coming off of his revenge match against Margarito, or if you expected Mayweather to fight Martinez immediately after his prison stint when he fought Guerrero.

          3/2012 -- Sergio fights Macklin
          5/2012 -- Mayweather fights Cotto


          Cotto was clearly the right choice. More money and at 154. More interest. Cotto coming off of revenge against Margarito.

          Mayweather then does two months in prison, doesn't fight in September, as was his usual plan.

          9/2012 -- Sergio fights Chavez Jr.

          That means the earliest date for this fight is 5/2013, right?

          4/2013 -- Martinez fights Murray.

          5/2013 -- Mayweather fights Guerrero.


          I think it's clear that he shouldn't have been moving up after his prison stint for Martinez as his first fight.


          Ok...Mayweather v. Sergio 9/2013, right?

          SERGIO MARTINEZ INJURED AND WON'T FIGHT AGAIN IN 2013 due to right knee injury, broken left hand, bad cut over eye.

          9/2013 -- Mayweather fights Canelo


          Sergio Martinez out for (the rest of) 2013
          http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/i...ting-rest-2013
          One more chance for this fight! 2014!!!!

          5/2014: Mayweather fights Maidana
          6/2014: Sergio fights Cotto


          So why didn't Floyd fight Sergio over Maidana????

          “That came from Sampson,” Cotto said in talking about 159lb catch-weight. “The first thing he said when we sat at the table was, ‘Sergio can’t run like before anymore and he wants to make his weight. He’s not going to be able to do less than 159 pounds.’ That was a petition from them, not us.”
          There really wasn't much of a window for this fight.

            PAC wasn't going to be bullied or have his name smeared. A lawsuit was settled and upon that settlement he agreed to testing. What followed was about ten subsequent excuses by Floyd to avoid him for five years. He even admits it himself.

            Freitas and Casamayor had a legit shot at beating him. Slinks did want to fight him.

              How is that possible when the Defamation lawsuit was settled in September of 2012 and they began negotiating in earnest in May 2014.

              Pacquiao was knocked unconscious December 2012. Your time-line doesn't add up.

                  You should be proud atleast because we know it's the fight you were asking for at the time.

                    That wasn't a bully tactic. Other people thought that Pac was juicing because his rise in weight keeping the domination. Floyd had agreed to everything and it was a 50/50 purse split.

                    Erroneous that after Pac gets KOed by Marquez was calling for more Red testing .

                    I agree with Johnston and Frietas would had been good fights but he didn't duck them.
