Wow, great way to try and turn it on Floyd, like most Pacquiao fans try to do. If Floyd "never" wanted the fight, why was he the only one who signed the contract? You doubt "it was true"? You really are in denial huh? Roach, Arum and Pac all stated that they declined because of the drug testing and wanted a 24-30 cut off. LOL! Amazing dude! As for the $40mil offer over the phone, that was also clarified by Pacquiao and Koncz. Both said that Floyd called Manny and spoke with him directly. Again, Pacquiao declined, thinking that Floyd wanted all the PPV when in actuality that $40 was going to be his guarantee. Again, Manny dropped the ball. Denial gets you no where.Floyd never wanted this fight. He was happy the way the first negotiation ended, where he looked great because pac was the one who declined the drug test, but i doubt it was true even if pacquiao immediately agreed to the test. 2 years later, after pac's contract with arum was done, he sent koncz to mayweather's gym to negotiate for the fight, floyd immediately offered the 40m no ppv dealbreaker, pac then said, give the phone to koncz. until today many floyd fans are still riding on that and pretending like floyd called on his own, because he'd never do that. Floyd looked great again, saying pac was the one who decline.
Now this current negotiation, i dont know how floyd will make himself look good again on this one
but im sure he'll find a way. "fighting cotto at 160, is the tougher and bigger fight" it could end in something like that Comment

This has already been refuted, Bruseles, trained by Cotto Sr was sent in 4 reconnaissance, after fighting Floyd and losing there was no further speculation. Floyd also retired because he enjoyed the dough from the De La Hoya fight. Most boxers that return from Ring Hiatus are never the same or lose a bit anyway, Ali, Tyson, Holmes etc.Comment

Why would Floyd Margarito for the WBO belt when Baldomir was the Lineal Champion? The fight w/Margarito was offered at $8mil. Floyd made a guaranteed $9 mil to fight Baldomir and become the Linear champion. The fight with Judah was his last fight with Top Rank. Margarito had never been mentioned as an opponent before then. He wasn't thought of until Mayweather left Top Rank. Another failed attempt at trying to diminish Floyd. Pitiful man...Just pitiful...Take a seat sirComment

Exactly!!! When Floyd fought Bruselles, he was still signed under Top Rank. As you stated, Bruselles was trained by Evangalista Cotto and Bruselles mimicked Cotto's fighting style. It was a test to see how Mayweather would fair against Cotto. Once he destroyed Bruselles, they didn't mention a fight between Mayweather and Cotto until after Mayweather left Top Rank. Floyd took a few years off after he defeated Ricky Hatton. Once he came back, he was still the same fighter, possibly better.Comment
