Comments Thread For: Arum: I'm Not Sure Floyd Mayweather Will Fight Again

[HooksNJabs]

I'm with his haters! Floyd Mayweather has been hand-picking world champions off career defining wins for YEARS and, frankly, I'm tired of it!

He didn't stay with Bob Arum and fight Margarito. Duck!
He didn't fight Cotto back when Cotto's team wasn't ready to offer Cotto up. Duck!
He didn't fight Paul Williams. Duck!
He didn't fight Pacquiao five years ago and went on to fight Mosley, who Bob Arum, himself, said was a bigger challenge for Floyd. Duck!
Um...Kostya Tszyu. Duck!
Ricky Hatton at 140. Duck!

I don't care if there are always a large group of people that honestly believe that the next fighter is going to be the guy to knock him out, I don't care if some of those people talk about how they feel Zab Judah beat him and I don't care if these people make entire "what if" scenarios off single punches that landed in 12 round fights, they are right: Mayweather didn't fight EVERYONE! And, if he did fight them, he obviously didn't fight them at the right time or he would have lost!

And, if he beats Pacquiao, despite much of Roach's game plan seeming to depend on his legs "not being what they were", then this Pacquiao fight doesn't count and he's clearly ducking Amir Khan, GGG and Kovalev. And, maybe, Andre Ward.

What in god's creation are you talking about lol

I wouldn't say that, especially if they can re-sale the rematch between him and Pac.

We all know Floyd is going to go for the point system against manny. Floyd won't brawl with Pac. Too dangerous for floyd

Brawling with Pac is too dangerous for anybody!

You forgot, handpicked Judah after he lost to Baldomir, who had 10 losses.. and It wasn't DLH instead of Margarito.. it was Baldomir instead of Margarito/cotto/cintron (believe was a champ not sure) Williams/ Martinez..

Gatti was well on his way out.. forgot handpicked marquez and forcing him up 2 WEIGHT classes and didn't even make the contracted weight, forgot he handpicked Guerrero, handpicked Victor the quitter Ortiz, he handpicked Maidana after a Broner win..

good business moves is all I say!

Wasn't the Judah fight signed before he lost to Baldomir?
Do you REALLY think that Arum would've let Floyd fight Margarito if he didn't resign with him or get options on future fights? His actions since then tell us that is not the case. Plus Arum himself said he would've fought Margarito and Cotto if Arum paid him the money he wanted.

Bob is a real idiot. Mayweather isnt embracing the promotion? That would be like Bob Arum embracing his own obituary which will probably happen this year too. Floyd just wants to set himself up with excuses, take his L and his cash and disappear

Brawling with Pac is too dangerous for anybody!

Even Marquez?
