    Guys who were content without fighting him Cotto and manny and Mosley

    Cotto admitted on ESPN that he didn't push for a Floyd fight. When you aren't in the top spot the onus is on you to seize the throne

      you summed it up here

      do you remember the look on Cotto and his camps face when Mayweather fought Bruseles

      that young mid 20s floyd was on another level.

      Most people only know Money may, Pretty boy floyd was high risk low reward to the stars on his rise

        No doubt about it Floyd ducked Pacquiao for 6 years that can and never will be excused.

          I didn't watch the video but from what I understand, a few fighters had supposedly "ducked" him earlier in his career-- Freitas, Casamayor, Tszyu, Cotto & Hatton (at 140) and some say that Mosely avoided a fight with him at 135.

            Floyd is retired. Take it to the history section.

                Mosley redeemed himself by crashing Floyd's party lmao

                I give margarito props also even though I dislike him. He stepped right up to Floyd's face and demanded a fight.

                No one can think margarito ducked Floyd.

                    Yes

                    I also remember the look on manny's face when Floyd stepped up to him at the bball game.

                    manny's wife looked uncomfortable also.

                    Floyd's symbolic gesture made the fight happen

                      IMO opinion if the Tszyu and Casamayor fights would've happaned at the right time, Floyd would be the undisputed TBE for me now, these would've been great fights that Floyd would've won and looked good doing it. Unfortunately these guys didn't want to fight at the right time.
