    Plus, he just beat the other top guy in the division - Trout. He's done just as much as Guererro did to "earn" the fight; plus, the fight will see at least 1.7 - 1.8 mil.
    If Floyd didn't think it would be a tough fight, he wouldn't be making excuses
    Floyd called Tszyu out more than once and got nothing.

      You thought wrong, interim titles don't count

When has he ever been considerate of what media or fans think he should do. Hell continue to pick and choose beatable opponents and then SHOWTIME will do what they can to give the opponent enough hype to make fans and media not question the decision.
        So Canelo was more deserving of a shot than Robert?

          So in other words.. I shouldn't be fighting the people the paying fans want me to fight? Isn't that what makes fights big gigantic events? There are two kind of fights those you need to hype and sell and those who already sold themselves in the public forum of fight fans. I haven't paid for a Mayweather fight in ages but i'd be inclined to if it was a fight everyone and their mother wants to see. Hell I made a night of it for the Cotto fight..certainly didn't for Ortiz, Mosley, or Guerrero.

            Compare their top 3 wins, please.

            Nm, Canelo's best win came after Guerrero was signed, but at this point Canelo has better wins that Guerrero

              Floyd fans always have a standard line "If Floyd fought Canelo, then everybody would say it was cherrypick," blah blah. I certainly wouldn't. I really don't think that many people would. Floyd has disappointed me consistently by not fighting the fighter I wanted him to fight, when I wanted to see the fight.

              If he fought Canelo, I could truly say this would be maybe the first time he had done that. So, all his fans can keep saying how easily he would dominate if they fought. I for one don't believe that. Make your hero prove it! But I am sure he won't. I would be willing to bet anyone of that, but there would be no way to make a loser pay.

              I was sure he would never fight Pacman when the fanboys kept saying it will happen, this year, next year,no next year. It never happened and no they both didn't duck, It was entirely on Mayweather who ducked.

              Pacman don't duck threats. Mayweather is the maestro of ducking.
              Yeah, Pacquiao dominated at 135. Remember when he knocked out Sergio? Or what about the time he destroyed Cotto at 147?

                If you aren't a paying Mayweather fan then why are you in here whinin on paying fan's behalf? Obviously the people who constantly pay to see Mayweather fight don't have a problem with his opponents. Keep your money(and your whining) hater, you aren't hurting Mayweather by not paying for his fights.

                      All Floyd said was:
                      "Fight you Hatton where you are KING? Hell NO! I want you where I saw you struggle and where you only fought once. You will have a harder time doing what you do best at 147 than against the smaller 140 fighters. Oh yeah, just to be sure, that I have all the advantages, I'm going to make sure Joe Cortez is ref!"
