    Two out of four would not be bad, it is the fact that Floyd has let so many of his toughest fights go by the wayside.

    Margarito was a beast, not technically gifted, but a great pressure fighter, tremendous work rate, easy to hit but a granite chin. Threw great hooks to the body and first rate uppercut. A very tough fight for Floyd.

    Quintana fought Williams, and won there first match, Marg fought Williams. Maybe Cotto could have fought Williams, but can't say Cotto was avoiding him because he was fighting guys like Mosley and Margarito at the time.

      Whether Mayweather tried to make a fight with Cotto, Pacquiao or Margarito, it wouldn't have happened considering that they are Bob Arum fighters. Trust me, 3 TR fighters are too much to be coincidences.

        And lets face it, if it was a choice of watching the the first list of fights or the second list of fights, it going to be the second list by a country mile.

          exactly but thats another debate I really don't see why Floyd would duck Cotto no disrespect to his fans but seriously why duck Cotto what so special about him?

Floyd retired because there were no more bums to take on. The biggest threats were looking for Floyd and he cried and retired...until everyone went on with their business. LOL then he comes back and Manny was there. There is a big reason why Floyd only has fought 7 times within 7 years.
            Call it whatever you like, (Mr get your facts straight himself)!! Floyd beat at least 3 welterweight champs, 2 lineal. Pacman beat only 1 at Mannyweight. :PS I dislike them both.

The only way for Floyd to even up or go pass PAC is if he moves up to heavyweight and knock out Monte Barrett. Remember what Floyd said: What PAC is doing would be equivalent to as if I was knocking out heavyweight.
            Really?? I think all he has to do is not lose to a lightweight at welterweight to be better than Pacman, but that's just me.

              D4th finally getting a poll to go his way after so many fails

              This reminds me of when STRUGG bumped his Morales > Floyd thread every day for weeks while America is asleep and it was daytime in the Philippines...then as soon as Morales caught up he declared Morales the winner

                Going into late 2007 two big welterweight fights Mosley vs Cotto and Mayweather vs Hatton.

                The winners were meant to fight each other. Mayweather decided to retire.

                Cotto had shown everything, a great body puncher, power in both hands, intelligence, speed, a quick jab. Could fight on the back foot, and was immense going forward.

                Mayweather vs Cotto in 2008 would have done around 1.75m PPV two undefeated welters.

                But Floyd felt there were no more challenges left out there for him. I don't believe that.

                You get fights that never happen, most boxers have one on there record, the fight that everybody wanted but never happened, for whatever reason. But Floyd has dodged 4 bullets.


                And whether he ducked him or not is irrelevant, The fact is these fights never happened.

                And these fight are considered superior to the list that did happen.

                  Why is a fail, I have polls to gauge peoples opinion, I don't win anything if the poll results support a statements in the thread.

                  And it always better and more of a challenge to try and change public opinion mind rather for them to stick to the status quo.

                    I agree that Mayweather should've fought Cotto early 2008 instead of trying to rematch DLH. Who I think the winner of the fight is, is irrelevent. The fight should've happened.

                    I don't feel the Marg fight should've happened in 06 because there were so many options at the time. But in 08, the smoke at 147 cleared and Cotto and Mayweather were the last one's standing.

                    But let's be consistent here. I can admit when I felt Floyd has done wrong.

                    Why can't you do the same with Pac instead of playing dense?

                    Has Pac "ever" been in the wrong in your eyes? If so, what?
