      Well obviously even since before the De La Hoya fight, Floyd has a history of avoiding fights and retiring unless he feels comfortable with the opponent and the terms (see Mosley years before they fought, see Cotto at 140, see Margarito at 47 instead fought Baldomir, see Pacquiao about 10 times, see Sergio Martinez at 154 but fought a post-Margo and Pac beaten Cotto, etc.) Compare that to someone like Pacquiao who has been and is willing to fight anyone within a reasonable weight limit.
      You can't criticize Floyd's opponents without criticizing Manny's. Manny has fought the same guys Floyd fought after Floyd beat them and he's fought 3 people in his last 5 fights. There is this idea that Manny is fighting riskier competition and he really isn't. Canelo and Maidana are more of risk than anybody Manny has fought since Cotto.

        Yes. And he wasn't talking out of his ass, he seemed to have spoken to his Manager about it. I can see it now, Thruman and Porter unify the belts and the winner faces Floyd with 3 belts on the line.

          Then the Tards will say "floy b duckin' doe". Then after they fight the same Tards will say "floy cherry picked dis bum doe"...

          Same **** different day and these Tards have no shame with the flip flopping either.

          At the end of the day, Thurman vs Porter must happen. Hell if Khan wins tomorrow night it should be Thurman vs Khan winner vs Porter vs Brooks winner. That winner fights Floyd.

At the time when Floyd made that offer...it should have been 50/50.
            Not a Floyd worshipper. The point is , if Manny wanted the fight so badly, he could have accepted the same $40 mil, he is willing to accept now. Secondly, why is it so difficult to understand that Floyd does not want to do BUSINESS with Arum, when he is in a position where he doesn't have to? Why should he make Arum millions when he clearly despises the man. Now as a boxing fan, none of us want to hear that, we want the fight by any means. The one thing I often wonder about and nobody ever brings up this point, Why is Manny about to sign an extension with Top Rank after they got his money screwed up and he owes taxes and Arum is a key reason that keeps him from the most lucrative fight in boxing history.

                And if I was Mayweather I'd tell Thurman to fight the winner of Khan/Collazo
                The man hasn't fought anyone.

                  We know how this story goes homie. They were all on Maidana's **** after he beat Broner but now that he is facing Floyd he is a slow neanderthal who was cherry picked. Rinse and Repeat.

                    quick question why is it everybody wants Floyd to fight everybody from 140 to 175 but none of these demands are placed on Pacquiao?? we hold Floyd to a higher standard, because no matter how much you hate him, deep down you know he's the best. No Pacquiao fan would ever demand for Pac to fight Golovkin, Lara, Ward and Hopkins, people are perfectly content with Manny still chasing 42 year old Marquez around while Floyd takes on hungry new monsters who are exploding onto the scene, but yet Floyd is the coward?? I don't get it. . as far as Thurman, he already has the charisma to be the face of of boxing, his confidence is not repulsive as is the case with Broner, and he's not an annoying prick like Khan is, so personality wise he is the next superstar of boxing, but I would like for him to face the winner of Khan/Collazo next, or the winner of Brooks/Porter. Stylistically Thurman vs Pacquiao is more intriguing than Thurman vs Mayweather.

                      Maidana is more dangerous than Bradley (12 KO's = feather fists), more dangerous than Rios, more dangerous than Margarito, more dangerous than Clottey, more dangerous than drained Oscar, more dangerous than drained Cotto, more dangerous than Hatton, and more dangerous than 42 year old Marquez...so who's ''cherry picking"?? and oh yeah, Pacquiao is 0-4 vs Marquez in case you forgot.
