Gatti was too small for 147 but too big for 140 he needed someone to fight. Floyd needed to get his name up because he was like Pwill is now, all rep and no drawing power.
    Very true, but let's not forget that before Gatti even considered it Mayweather had to become Gatti's mandatory by beating Cotto's best friend.

          Jrosales13 whats up dude. Without getting into it lets not discuss Cotto an Marg. We know the facts. I'm fighting ODh for $20 mil and Baldo for $8 mil especially if I just gave Bob 750k to get out of contract. Mosley, who was the man, wanted no part of lfoyd for the reason I posted.

          Bigger picture, floyd fighting 2x a year and getting paid big money that IS EXACTLY WHAT EVERY PROFESSIONAL BOXER OR ADULT WITH A JOB DREAMS OF. little work for big pay. Dude has to work 2 times a year to make $60 mil and you hate him for it.

          Does the J in Jrosales13 stand for JEALOUS?
          Yea it does stands for jealous. Very clever there, How did you know? Anyways lets get back to the topic.

          So now you justifying his 2 fight a year cuz of big pay? First it was nobody wanted to fight not to he is getting a lot of money? Well good for Floyd, I am really happy for him or jealous whatever you prefer. The thing is he is an elite fighter and should fight more IMO. I didn't give Oscar a pass for it nor did I give Hopkins a pass for it and he was damn near 40 years old. But, hey that is just the jealousy that is in me.

          Anyways at 135 Stevie Johnston was willing to fight him and so was Spadafora and so was Lazcano. Floyd ignored all 3. Now you being the fanatic that you are will not only make up an excuse but justify on why he didn't fight them. Maybe even play the who are they game? At 140 Harris was willing to fight him, Floyd was even his mandatory but Floyd decided to fight a lesser opponent in Bruseles. But, again let the excuses and justifying begin. At 147 he had countess time to fight top opponents. Hell he could of fought Margarito in August of 06, buy out his contract fight Baldomir in Nov/Dec of 06 and fight Oscar in May of 07. But, would that have been too many fights for the very active "money" Mayweather? I guess....

                How is it cheap.... and you don't even know what the challenge is?


                Should Bill Gates pay $6,000 for a cup of coffee just because he's a billionaire?

                Doesn't make any sense to me.


                Besides the fact, what I am going to ask you to do... you should do anyway.. and I wouldn't pay anyone else to do this.

                  If you paired these numbers up with dollars earned per fight, you would understand why the activity has become less and less.
