Its amazing how Floyd reduces the workrates of fighters

[thatnickuh]

Arum was promoting Marg and Floyd and Floyd turned down the Margo fight....to fight Shotbay..then turned it down after he left Arum......

my info is 100%, son..

he makes excuses to suit whoever he doesnt want to fight...losses, etc...

You're lying though "son". Mayweather turned down the Margarito fight to fight Baldomir.

[fcastro1]

yes he lowers the punch rate of dead beat fighters and blown up featherweights and old men with no gas. Well done Floyd Mayweather you are the Goat.

floyd turned down the margs fight because he wanted more money. was he wrong for doin it, hell no!!!! it was the best buisness decision he ever made. he went on to fight dlh and make the biggest payday he has ever made. n btw dlh at 154 was much more of a threat than margs at any weight would have been to floyd. so i find a hard time calling that ducking.

With that said are you saying Pac knows how to cut the ring off?

[goldenglove2]

You have no clue what you are talking about. Mayweather tried to get fights with both Cotto and Hatton at 140, when he was still trying to make a name for himself. They both turned him down. Also Kostya Tyszu (since you probably weren't watching boxing then, he was the Ring champion at 140)chose to fight Hatton at 140 instead of Mayweather when Mayweather called him out. There was no cherrypicking going on. As for Margarito, considering what Mosley did to him, even you should know that he had no chance against Mayweather.

lmao.. Floyd said openly BACK THEN that he wanted to wait til Kostya was OLD, like his uncle Roger when Kostya fought him,

been watching longer then you , son...

He also claimed Gatti was THE champion at 140 before he fought him...lol.......in an interview with Brian Kenny....
then Kenny said, "no Floyd, Hatton is " then Floyd said " last time you said Kostya is Kenny, wich one is it?? "...kenny just started laughing and said " Hatton just beat Kostya, Floyd, so now he is "....then Floyd saidto the camera " Dont listen to Brian Kenny, he doesnt know boxing, Im fighting THE champion at 140, Arturo Gatti " ..LMAO....

[big_james10]

A lot of fighters avoid the best competition. It has been like that since Oscar lost the spot light, I don't care for DLH much but he did choose to fight everyone. Now fighters fight only when they have an advantage or the other fighter is past their prime.

Not exactly true. I can think of at least a few fighters that Oscar avoided: Azumah Nelson at 130; Vernon Forest (after he beat Mosley twice) at 147; Winky Wright at 154 and Margarito after he beat Cotto (Oscar said at the time he would fight the winner, but that was when he thought Cotto would win).

ok...well he went and fought hatton, see where that went, huh???so what really is the point of tlkin about this?

[Versatility]

I think this is what got Floyd shook. He sees Pac walking through clean KO punches from Cotto and he's still letting his hands go in the later rounds. Pac ain't scared to engage, you catch him clean, he responds with a barrage of punches. You can't catch Pac with stingers, he'll just keep coming at you.

floyd is 10 million times more accurate than cotto, and his defense is 20 million times better. so floyd can hit more and accurately while not getting hit

[Ragnar Lothbrok]

i clearly said at the time pac fought them. at that time, mosely was better than cotto. he destroyed the man cotto got destroyed by, therefore, he was ranked higher and he was considered by most, if not all, to be the top ww. at the time pac fought cotto, ppl could argue roach cherrypicked cotto over mosely and they wouldnt be wrong.

the point is i dnt beleiev in this whole cherrypickin **** cuz ppl like to apply it to fighters they dont like while their any amount of research or knowledge would show that most fighters, including your favorites (i.e. pac) do the same damn thing.

so we playing triangular theory now?


shane beat margarito after margarito was suffering the ill effects of the cotto fight which he took 2 punches to land one. not to mention getting caught with the plaster. he was mentally shook.

shane was made to look better than he actually really is by that margarito fight & it showed in the floyd fight where he started gassing in the 3rd round.

The Mosley fight wasn't until 6 months later...and how do you know how it affected him mentally?

Your a funny guy
