Time for Floyd to Man Up or get out of the sport, but to a Mexican, its looks like a cowards way out. I am actually glad that Mayweather is avoiding Pacquiao so that it will always be remembered that Mexicans were the Only fighters able to Challenge and beat the Filipino Wonder.
    The same one that couldn't win a round off Mayweather and actually lost all 3 fights to Pacquiao. People claim robbery because he did better than expected... Is that the warrior?

      Actually, boxing writers and historians shape the legacy of a fighter whether that's fair or not.

      If Mayweather doesn't fight Pac, it will be without a doubt an asterisk on his career. Pac has come from 106lbs, to where he is now and has fought everyone that has a big name.

      Floyd hasn't.

      The one name Floyd is missing on his career is Pac and like I said, whether it's fair or not, the historians are going to tear him to shreds if he fails to make the fight.

      Pac has now agreed to test, to just about everything except the money. I think Floyd is scared to lose his 0 more than anything else. I don't think he fears Pac, he just fears having a chance to lose his 0.

        Yep because Pacquiao fights exactly like Cotto did doesn't he? LOL

        If Cotto fought Marquez he would walk through anything JMM threw and KO his ass but Pacquiao couldn't you know why? Styles make fights. Cotto, Castillo style is Mayweathers biggest style problem, counter punchers are Pacquiaos and Mayweather is a hell of a lot better than JMM in every area.

          Of course he'll retire. He struggled with a past prime, been in too many wars - Cotto.

          His nose and lips didn't get bloody cuz he was winning. They got bloody cuz he was getting his ass kicked

              If Mayweather cared so much about his 0 he wouldn't fight fighters like Cotto at their preferred weight he would stack the deck in his favour. He didn't he fought Cotto on fair terms and beat him at his own game.

                Pacquiao got his ass kicked worse in his fight against Cotto and then refused to fight a stronger healthier Cotto. Mayweather gets a bloody nose and everyone thinks the boxing world has turned upside down,. Guess what? Burton/Augustus did it long before Cotto ever did.

                  Mayweather will fight Andre Berto, if Berto beats Ortiz handily. Mark my words.

                    If you think that Mayweather, the fans, the boxing experts and everyone in between didn't think Cotto was tailor made for Mayweather your in denial.

                    There's a reason he was 7-1 underdog, there was a reason that Floyd was calling out KO when he usually doesn't do that.

                    There's a reason that we are talking about what a great performance Cotto put on and he only won 3-4 rounds...hahaha

                    Nobody gave Cotto a chance to win except maybe his die hard fans, this fight was a shocker and it's the reason we are talking about it today.

                    Floyd fighting Cotto was never thought of as a risk.....sorry.

                      That's why he fought Cotto in 2012 and not years ago. If your blind to the fact that he cherry picks his fights to protect his record, you're crazy.
