      tszyu RETIRED after he fought hatton, RETIRED. tszyu/hatton was in may,

      mayweather/gatti was in june.

      tszyu retired

      mayweather fought micthell as a tuneup to judah 6 months after tszyu retires.

      now run this **** by me again.
      so thats it...he did'nt fight tsyu bcecuase he retiterd....BS...gatti was floyd's last fight at 140 meaning he could've made a fight with him much sooner than the gatti fight if he really wanted to.......

        Look dude, stop playin yourself. My point is manny made the business decision to fight morales. It wasn't because he was scared.

        Floyd fought 2 fights for about $35 mil. You would have him fight 2 fights for roughly half of that? Seriously?
        After Hatton, Floyd could have fought Cotto, Pwill, Cheato and Pac. But he prefer retirement. When comes back He takes the smaller JMM. And He makes Mosley wait forever and get rusted. Pac is the real Threat. But he has excuses after excuses just to duck Pac. That's extra money Floyd could have made but his fans like you ..dont want to see him in the real Challenge?

        Just fight Floyd!! Dont be a *****!!

          alot of what im talking about was greatly discussed on here.



          ofcourse........but you are reasoning with a fanatic.................it's pointless.........

              your god pacquiao is breaking commission rules by demanding over 25% of the fighters purse for 1lb the maximum allowable fine is 25% of the fighters purse only and even then only when they come in 2lbs over not 1 read 467.030

                    its a maximum allowable fine floyd made 10 milli for that fight and juan could have charged him 2.5 million for it. read the link. your god is breaking the rules. but thats ok for him to do it because hes your god./

                      Floyd Mayweather has been at welter for 5 years now. The top guys in that division in that time have been / are: Paul Williams, Miguel Cotto, Shane Mosley, Joshua Clottey, Kermit Cintron, Antonio Margarito and more recently Pacman. Now how many of those names does Floyd have on his resume? The answer is 1. I rest my case.
                      Judah and Baldomir were 2 of the top 3 welterweights when Mayweather moved up to 147. Clottey and Cintron have never been top 3 welterweights. A more accurate list would be Judah, Baldomir, Margarito, Williams, Cotto, Mosley, Pacquiao. Mayweather has beaten 3 of the 7, or 4 of the 8 if you count Hatton (since Hatton won a title at WW, though he did not defend it).
