    Look how slowly he put his words together,

    Hence, "you're only fast in the ring" comment.

    And, Floyd has a speech problem. As a kid he stuttered. He has worked on it to make it less. But, still a stuttering problem.

    He's not slurring his words at all at this time. So no concern yet IMO anyways.
    I didn't see any flaws during the video I posted with Mayweather and Merchant. Show me a link that says Mayweather had speech problems as a kid. I've never heard such a thing.

    Secondly, you'll notice a speech decline during his ustream interview pre-ortiz. I'm searching for the vid so give me a second.

        3. HBO knows who butters their bread as well. And, Haymon can easily go across the street and butter Showtime bread.

        4. Floyd has never, ever been the most active fighter. Ever...Whoever has followed this man career knows this. So he won't start now.
        If schaffer is to be believed, I think HBO may pressure floyd to fight more often as his career fades.

        I dont think he can make the same form SHowtime. He surely wont get the exsposure. Even with CBS and everything SHowtime is still laggin behind HBO. I think the Pac Shane fight showed that. How many ppv's did they actually sell?

        Agree with the last piece. Thats why I am suggesting HBO is mandating this to a degree. Especially if they can get him on regualr HBO once.

          Money will keep Floyd in this game well past his prime.

          The way he shreds money... believe this as fact.

          We will see Floyd lose... we will see him get ****** in for the money.

          Believe it.

            Who said there was a flaw in that video? Just as there is no flaws now when Floyd speaks.

            Unless you count stuttering and speaking slowly a flaw. Which Floyd has always done.

            I can't speak about the Ustream stuff. Cuz' I don't watch the crap he does outside the ring. I don't find him entertaining outside of the ring. But, I doubt it's any worse than what I hear in the interviews and stuff.

              I thought TS's question was "who would we "like" to see"??

              No one ever said anything about who we were "going" to see.

              But since you know who Floyd can and can't fight, post your next 3-4 opponents?

                Floyd will NOT fight Miguel Cotto. I just can't see it. It'd be a crap choice, and one that Arum would make for Pacquiao actually. He's already mentioned a possible rematch with Cotto if he beats Margrito.

                Floyd makes it a point that Manny has fought a few of his left overs (De La Hoya 1 1/2 years later, Hatton 2 years later, Mosley 1 year later, and Marquez at 144 2 years later)....So he won't fight Cotto. Also, it's a crap choice because how good has Cotto been since he got knocked out by Margairto in 08'??? Not that great. Still good, but not in his "prime". Also, I see Floyd fighting Sergio at 154 before Pac fights Sergio at 150. I would also rather see Mayweather-Martinez at 154 than Pacquiao-Martinez at 150. Sergio's would be draining himself too far to go down to 150. Like I said, maybe if Sergio struggles against Barker or gets knocked down by Barker, than Arum will sign Pacquiao to fight Martinez. It honestly sounded like a bluff when Arum said Pacquiao will fight Martinez at 150...notice how there's been zero response from Pacquiao, Arum, or Roach since Sergio said that the other day. Also, Dibella said a fight with Floyd at 154 is more realistic at this point.

                Ortiz, Martinez, Pacquiao, Khan, and Alvarez. Thatw ould be my dream but I am far too smart to think it will play out like that, This is boxing for christ sake.

                  Canelo is who I always thought would get floyd first. His performance ****** Saturday but he will be Vic's age when floyd is 37-38. Just makes sense.
