    Yikes ..... Is that what you gathered from my post? but when you think about it, if those two drew big, Floyd "money" Mayweather would have fought them already. lol!

      And btw he was number 1 P4P Pac was, was kinda fight is that for a number 1 P4P to take?????/

      Sergio Martinez was calling Pac out at 154 back then and so was Paul Williams, Roach and Arum knew Pac would lose easily to both, so they took the easier fight.
      Margarito was ranked and it was just to say that he got a title but the intentions wasn't to continue at 154 because Manny had trouble making 147! Manny stated it during the training camp. So he tried and said, no more. Floyd has done it twice and would do it again .... but NOT AGAINST MARTINEZ!!! Get the issue?

      Floyd fought a known cheat named Mosley. Since Floyd did it, is it now fine and dandy? Geeez!

      Manny couldn't even make 147 back then and NEVER fought at the full 154. Right? Floyd fought 2 fighters at the full 154 weight limit and said that he wanted his fighters to feel comfortable .......

      Floyd's trainer said Floyd could even go higher than 154 if the money is right because its not size but skills that pays the bills ..... that time, Martinez was calling Floyd out but we know that Floyd didn't want.

        Reason is that we all know that Floyd ducked him ...... oh so you are glad that he didn't fight Margarito the cheat but Mosley the cheat was OK by you right? lol!

          When people were discussing a Margarito v Mayweather fight his cheating could have slipped under the radar. When Mosley and Mayweather fought his cheating had already been exposed meaning the team could take steps ( extra drug testing) to eliminate/reduce the risk.

            But where was Canelo when Floyd was dominating at 21 ? Nowhere!

              Khan is ranked #2 for WW even though he hasn't even fought there. All Khan has to do is sneeze and he will move up a spot and for you, he will be legit fight for Floyd.

              If you read, Khan is still in the running to fight Floyd. Last year it was a shoe-in even without fighting at WW ..... see the problem?

                There are a few of you in this thread that brought up that Margarito was a cheat or that Manny fought a cheat ....

                As for Mosley, he could have still done it and cycled off or used something that is not detectable .... look at Lance Armstrong. He passed the tests with flying colors ... and in boxing where it's more relaxed especially considering that testing was done only close to the fight NOT for the rest of the year.

                As for your excuse, its just that, an excuse that even Floyd himself used a while back ..... he said, I knew there was a reason why I shouldn't fight Margarito and now I found out what that reason was ..... WHAT FLOYD????

                  You're telling me the WBC schemed to have Rob tear his RC, take nearly 1.5 years off, jump 2 weight classes to outclass Aydin and turn Berto into Kermit the Frog? Who else on the WBC welterweight rankings did you want installed as the mandatory? Abregu? I think Ghost is completely out of his element here, and it's a **** fight but you can't argue Guerrero doesn't deserve his status as mandatory. It's a stay busy fight, hardly a cherry pick.

                  The question is how he became a mandatory and more pertinent one is how important is being mandated by some bent sanctioning body that makes the rules up to suit its own agenda and bank balance anyway? It doesnt make Guerrero an acceptable fight for the so called P4P#1 when from the boxing fans point of view there are much better options.

                  If this fight was free I'd shrug, but its not. Its just more once a year, overpriced crap.

                    No, Ghost has legit wins at 147. Khan doesn't. How the phuck would you assume I would agree Khan would be a legit fight, he's a chinny a$$ ******** Humpty Dumpty. He doesn't deserve that #2 ranking. Ghost deserves his mandatory status. Please tell me who else you wanted the WBC to install as Floyd's mandatory.
