    Most Mayweather fans are more ridiculous than I believe Floyd can ever genuinely be. When the camera's off, Floyd's known to be a real cool dude and pretty approachable.

      How about this. Fight Pac the midget for $50mil, or take a vacation for $0mil?

      Fight Cotto and Marg for $16 mil guarantee
      Fight Baldo and ODH for $33 mill guarantee


      I believe Deveel916 takes the 2nd option EVERY time.

        People got enough of Floyd Mayweather staged fights.

        Mayweather vs Mosley was more fake then Green vs Briggs.

        Mosley wasnt allow to throw head shots after he almost KO china chin Floyd with slap in round 2!

          Boxing fans are supposed to forget about a fighter when he's ducking the best but then PRAISE him when he finally fights someone ?

          I don't get it. If he doesn't want people talking about him, he should retire.

I know Manny is very suspect but the others he had no excuse to not fight when they were knocking on his door. Instead he fought, oscar who was shot, ricky hatton, and not to mention baldomir (club fighter)

              If and when floyd retires which he will soon, I believe boxing will be better! You have fighters like bradley and the 140 who all want to fight the to prove they are champs. Also We will get a huge star from who ever wins the super six. Do any of you agree??
              how will boxing be better without him if it seems like the only thing people talk about is floyd mayweather.what will every one talk about when floyd is gone?who will everyone hate on if floyd is gone

                Just tell me what you would do please?

                The question u asked me was regarding something else. Not this. Get your facts straight. Here's the question u were hounding me to answer.

                Which top rank story do you believe?:
                1. Margarito's interview in February where he says Bob promised him Nov. fight with Manny?
                2. SEVERAL quotes from both Pac and Arum in regards to them both wanting a Nov 13th showdown with Floyd?

                This is where you and other Manny fans get stuck. Lets just leave floyd out of it and decide whci top rank story you believe Bob/Tony or Bob/Manny?


                And my answer was....

                Bob Arum has made it clear, that despite plans for Pac/Margarito being underway, his door will remain open should Floyd be interested again.

                Heres the thread link in case u need to refresh your memory. http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/sh...417603&page=25


                Now to answer your NEW question.....

                Floyd was offered $8mil for a fight with Margarito. He went on the record to say himself that he made $1 more for fighting Baldomir. Me personally, I would have fought Margarito for 1 dollar less and silenced the critics.

                As for Oscar, I dont blame Floyd for fighting Oscar, but when the fight with Cotto was practically being pushed down his throat, he made 101 excuses as to why he doesnt want to fight him. Excuses ranging from he needs to be his own ceo, to he lives in PR.

                      Unlike most Floydboyz, I can give 2 ****s what a fighter makes. I dont see a penny from it, therefore if they make $5k or $50mil, I can care less.

                      Floyd "money" Mayweather is all about the money EXCEPT when it comes to facing Pac for what could be the biggest payday in boxing history!

                      He's an unskilled, one dimensional fighter who I would whoop on, yet what he's doing is remarkable therefore he must be on something! LMAO!!!!
