    Sure He Ducks Guys; Had 5 Years To Fight Pacquiao... Avoided Sergio Martinez

    Made Cotto & Mosley wait more than 10 years until way beyond their prime. Floyd is all about the paycheck, the safest route to the bank.

      That may be true, but history will prove Floyd was always ahead of Pacquiao in accomplishments and self promotion.

      You wouldnt be posting on the forums needing to defend him every single day of your life.
      The most telling evidence is Pac's refusal to take a simple test like Floyd's other opponents have already done and then being forced to implement PED testing after turning it down for the biggest fight of life.

      It won't affect Floyd as much as everyone expects it to because he knows what went down behind the scenes so he doesn't lose any sleep over it.

      And for the record, I don't mind defending Floyd after the shenanigans Pac and his crew pulled off since that fight was first announced.

      It's all been documented.

        PPV RECORDS? OK vs WHO ? DE La Hoya that brought more fans than JUNIOR inside the MGM and at home;vs CANELO that he is the young star of boxing with a handsome hollywood look (magnetic for women) that has a lot of mexican fans,he fought him on CINCO DE MAYO (independence day for mexicans) and on undercards there was GARCIA vs MATTHYSSE that is a MUST WATCH FIGHT for boxing fans all around the world;so he has to stop talking like PPV's records are only because he is fighting and people want to see only his pathetic performances;LIKE I SAID BEFORE AT THIS POINT JUNIOR IS "THE HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS" OF BOXING AND CHOOSE FLAT FOOTED SLOW OPPONENTS TO SHOW PEOPLE HIS SKILLS!!! MANNY vs TIM instead is like watching MIAMI HEAT vs LOS ANGELES LAKERS!!!

          Even after Cotto said he never pursued a fight.....and even before Arum denied Floyd a chance for that fight

          Plus how does the younger fighter in Floyd make Mosley wait? When he was fighting people like Oscar, who was Mayweather facing?

                Amazing that nobody mentions that Khan was robbed against Peterson who was on Drugs!!! Also Maidana's only best win is Broner Period!! I don't see Maidana winning a round against Mayweather tbh..

                  I wanted to see the khan fight but he's made a lot poor decsions over the years and doesn't really deserve a title shot at 147

                    Yes Floyd you are in a position to cherry pick and carefully choose who you fight. Carefully choose people who are tailor made for you for the remainder of your career.
                    Congratulations.

                      I expected better of you Weebler. If they made Khan Maidnana II it would be state sanctioned murder, their respective careers have gone in opposite directions. Maidana's never looked better, Khan's never looked worse. Maidana would have him out of there inside five rounds.
