    thats not true because floyd could not have fought cotto when pacquiao fought him or with a catchweight without any hate and the same goes for clottey there is no way anyone would have been fine with floyd fighting clottey right after a loss

        two options:

        stay with TR fight cotto and margs
        leave TR fight Baldo and ODH

        I think any professional chooses the path to ODH because its the most lucrative at the time.

          If Hearns could afford it. Im sure he wouldve. We live in a different era of boxing now. Its not 1981 anymore.

              Cheato hasnt won a big fight in his life. Hes never beaten anybody on Bertos level in his life. I dont count the first Cotto fight for obvious reasons.

                i'm sorry but no one on the east coast even knew who margarito was before he fought cotto some people may had heard of margarito but the only reason certain people out here heard of his name is because it was mentioned with floyd

                  If Floyd had wanted the challenge, he'd have taken Margarito and then DLH. Baldomir was a ridiculous fight but definetely the easiest.

                    LMAO, but everyone knew who Baldomir was, RIGHT?

                    No one on the East/West/North/South, knew who Baldomir was.
