        When did Mayweather refuse to fight Sharmba Mitchell? This is a creative one, I don't think I've even yet to hear this one.

        When did Mayweather refuse to fight Mosley? And what loss did he take that made him take the fight? Mayweather was being accussed of ducking Mosley after the Cotto loss. I don't recall him losing between that fight and when he finally stopped "ducking" him.

          To fight someone else for more money and the lineal title is a duck? Makes no sense. Plus, if I'm not mistaken, Arum offered Floyd Marg after Floyd expressed his frustration with Arum and was ready to buy out his contract....

            You don't remember, Floyd's excuse.

            Shane Mosley is not a PPV attraction and Floyd went on to fight Marquez.

            Mosley the welterweight champion put in an official offer to fight Mayweather, Floyd turned it down to fight the lightweight champion of the world at welterweight.

            For the record, Mosley PPV sales against Mayweather were 40% better than Marquez.


            Another blatant lie and excuse from Floyd.

              And at which point between this, and when the fight was signed did Mosley lose?

                17 months of ring rust, had his 38th birthday, had two fights canceled, and was in a 6 month training camp.

                Also had some injuries according to Shane himself.

                    That's nice.

                    At which time did he lose?

                      Toothache hurts.

                      Mosley was answering a question in a post fight interview, and as a member of GBP and a friend of Oscar, he new that fight was going to be made.

                      Floyd never put an offer in to fight Shane and never had.
