      yeah but who were they? when baldomir was #1 yes. when marg was #1 no. when 39 year old mosley was #1 yes. when prime pac was #1 no. when faded cotto was somehow #1 at 154 yes. when prime cotto was #1 at 147 no. etc....you see hte pattern don't you? just like everyone in this thread said back in 2005 he was going after faded names.

      you think he should be given the same credit for beating baldomir and 39 year old mosley as prime pac and cotto? i disagree strongly.

        His next fight was his last with Top Rank

          who were the best fighters of his era?

            Should Floyd have built an outdoor stadium to host the fight? ??????

            Because "prime" Manny and Arum needed an outdoor stadium, cutoff date for OSDT, afraid of needles, and weakened by giving blood....XD

              what are you trying to say? the offer was 7 million for marg or 4 million for sharmba. there were no contract extensions offered. why are you bringing up irrelevant things?

                forgot the 40 million flat offer that killed the fight when they called his bluff? they always ignore the most important info...

                      See the scoring of Pacquiao-Horn and Pacquiao-Bradley to understand why Mayweather wouldn't want to fight Margarito in a WBO title fight in the final fight of a Top Rank contract . . .
