    when you talk so much crap you will always be held to a higher standard.

    Floyd constantly claims he is the greatest, nobody can beat him, he is better than Ali, Robinson, and all the ATG's, this is why he gets criticized, Pacquiao and Cotto don't talk crap and don't go around every day claiming they are the best ever and that nobody can beat them.

    Nobody likes a talker who doesnt back up his mouth, Floyd kept saying how he would beat Pac easy, yet never fought him even when Pac agreed to the testing. If you can beat hte man easy why never fight him? Why let other guys have a shot, and why let JMM take your glory?

    its basic common sense.
    Pac agreed? Thats funny because when there was an offer on the table he backed out. He didnt even want to test up to 14 days. Ya you can say he agreed after the fact. Thats easy to do when theres no contract in the waiting. Next youll probably say Pac agreed to a lesser purse too. Then I will say I find it hard to believe that 2 yrs later Pac will fight Floyd for less money with stronger drug testing than what was originally offered back in 09. Or Pac has to be the worst businessman on the planet.

      That's why you have to actually fight, in order to test your greatness. Non of this fantasy land BS that Flowmos try and incorporate in their arguments.
      imagine if hearns refused to fight SRL because of a toothache or because he was afraid of needles or he brought out his contract with his promoter and the promoter wouldn't work with him?

          who did margarito do to deserve a fight with mayweather? why didn't margarito have any names on his resume before beating cotto? what has margarito done besides beat cotto in his entire career?robert guerrero is more deserving of a fight with floyd now than margarito was back then.

              Imagine if Hearns took a 2 year vacation so he could avoid Leonard.

                    Nah. He took the easy fight against punchbag Baldomir. Everybody knew Margarito was the man.
