Homie he made 8.1 to fight baldo, bob offerd 8 what did he turn down?? Second margo lost to p.will and baldo was the champ upsetting judah. Third he didnt look shook he told margo in his face they would fight if the business end was right. He didnt lie in that mans face, he didnt promise something to get big bad margo off his back. He told him what the deal was straight up. 4th how did he never try to fight these guys?? He fought an undefeated hatton and he fought de la hoya at 154. Who was he ducking?? Bob didnt give him the bread so he got it himself, makes sense.
Mayweather will never have a GREAT win......

when arum said that cotto wasn't ready for floyd what did that mean?you are the confused one.after cotto beat zab they still were saying that cotto was not ready for the likes of mayweather after the win over mosley is when a floyd-cotto fight became more credible and once again remember that a fight with margarito was more likely to happen than a fight with mayweather at that point in time because arum was already building up a cotto margarito fight for more than a yearwhy do you hang on words like they are gospel? floyd talks bullsh-it every time he opens his mouth. take the test etc... cotto was ready to fight floyd in 2006. floyd is the one who asked for more money even though it was a lot more than he had ever made before. oh but don't worry floyd had a time machine and knew he would get 8 million to fight baldomir 3 months after he turned down the cotto fight.Comment

its very relevant. if he couldnt fight tszyu, then he couldnt have had the win. therefore, the fact that it was impossible to fight tszyu makes it impossible to say that it was a win he could have had.Comment

he asked for a $10 million guarantee to fight opponents such as Miguel Cotto and Ricky Hatton, when Arum was only willing to guarantee $7 million.
date: April 25, 2006
so floyd asked for 10 million to fight 140 pound cotto? strange indeed.Comment

the baldomir offer came 3 months after the others. does floyd have a time machine?Homie he made 8.1 to fight baldo, bob offerd 8 what did he turn down??

once again. words. what is actually important are negotiations. pen to paper. the fight with cotto was offered for 7 million. floyd asked for 10.when arum said that cotto wasn't ready for floyd what did that mean?you are the confused one.after cotto beat zab they still were saying that cotto was not ready for the likes of mayweather after the win over mosley is when a floyd-cotto fight became more credible and once again remember that a fight with margarito was more likely to happen than a fight with mayweather at that point in time because arum was already building up a cotto margarito fight for more than a yearComment

i'm actually owning myself by trying to explain things to them for the 1000th time. they just refuse to use common sense, logic, math, etc...instead they resort to time machine theories, conflating history, and anything to defend floyd.Comment

Floyd Mayweather Jr. rejected promoter Bob Arum's $8 million offer to fight welterweight titlist Antonio Margarito, and he instead exercised a provision in his contract to buy Arum out.
10 million to fight cotto who was coming off a huge win over gianluca branco? he only made 5 to fight judah but yeah that's appropriate...Comment
