Classic stuff from a Floyd fan. lol
First off there are plenty of links that show Floyd going into retirement when Cotto WAS READY to fight him. There were also a lot of other players ready to fight him such as Mosley, Margarito, Williams ....
What did Floyd do? Again plenty of links that state that he went into retirement.
You can say what you want about Cotto but he doesn't duck. Margarito doesn't duck and Williams was still waiting this summer for a fight with Floyd...... again there are PLENTY of LINKS to substantiate what I said.
Another FACT: True Welterweights Cotto, Margarito, Williams, Mosley all managed to fight each other but Floyd couldn't because he fought a career 140lb Hatton instead then wanted to go on a vacation. Nice timing Floyd! Plenty of links.
Another FACT: There are boxers who have called out Floyd, so don't give the impression that they did not call out Floyd.
- Margarito did. Floyd responded by saying "who is Margarito" .... then fought no-name Baldomir.
- Williams called Floyd out plenty of times and even said recently that Floyd doesn't have the balls .... and concluded that there was a better chance of fighting Manny! Plenty of links.
- Martinez has called him out. Plenty of links.
- Manny has called him out. Plenty of links.
MOSLEY: Mosley had just fought in the middle of July and was asked in the ring by Larry Merchant NOT FLOYD, what about a fight with Floyd as he is available for November. LESS THAN 4 MONTHS AWAY!!! There was talk of Margarito for November NOT Mosley. Mosley pointed it out and said he PLANNED and was going on vacation and if Floyd can wait a few months they can do it in early 2007. Mosley fought February 2007. Floyd didn't want to fight Mosley, instead fought the no-name Baldomir in November.
Also, you nicely forgot to mention that if the money was right, Mosley said he could change his mind and fight Floyd in November. Floyd NEVER had Mosley in his radar.
Also funny that Floyd fans hate Arum's deadlines but Floyd did the same in a way and fought no-name Baldomir in November instead of the better opponent Mosley. Like I said, Floyd NEVER had Mosley in his radar.
