    The clowns who still pretend he's a ducker can never explain the rematches he gave to the only two guys who came close to beating and therefore by definition the hardest possible next opponent he could have chosen.
    Hugh Grant is different though. He literally said this and then deleted the post when Floyd defeated all of them. That is one of the most f@ggoty things ever done by an NSB poster.

        Hahahahahah

        Damn next level ****. I think it's hillarious how these guys forget that they predicted everyone to beat Floyd.

        That's why I had to post these Arum threads. To set the truth straight. They can drown it out with their babbling but now there's a record.

            Clottey went to wire with Cotto so was good, real good. Rios and Algieri were after being koed by JMM. But rios was a puncher and even BH said he tips his hat off to Pac for taking that fight.

            You have absolutely no credibility.
            What ive said was embelished. But once again ive explained that i only said it at the time as Floyd was rarely fighting and i wanted Floyd to get moving and dangle a carrot in front of floyd. If he beats SSM and Hatton and DLH and Cotto he will be above Ali and SRR put together. But you are a boxing fan and even you should have known if i said things like that i should be put in an asylum.
            Beating past it SSM and hatton dont make you above SRR or Ali, or Pac, or duran, or SRL etc etc.
            But if you put a different slant on it and Floyd beat prime SSM, Hatton in manchester at 140, Cotto in his prime not being beaten by margarito and Pac already. and also beat DLH in prime not coming far removed loss from BH. Then Floyds standing might seem a little different

              RFLMAO!!!!

              Dude, once Mosely crushed Margarito he was top 3 P4P and the haters were saying no way would Floyd take a risk that big to fight him. That was when Pac got scared of needles so Floyd made the next best possible fight by taking on Mosely.

              The point is, exaggerations or not, you guys constantly have moved the needle for Mayweather for years and years. Cotto at 154 was at his best, period, Floyd beat the best version of Cotto that there ever was. ODLH was huge and probably looked the best he ever had in that fight, people re-write history, we saw with out own eyes that ODLH was at his best vs Mayweather.

              He beat all of those guys when he could get a fight with them, then he beat Pacquaio too.

                Ssm was past prime so no matter how you spin it. He was past prime when floyd beat him. Lost 5 times so floyd beating him is no big deal he's same size as floyd. Beating plaster of Paris Margarito don't make you no3 pop. Who said cotto was best ever at 154..?

                  Boxing experts said Mosely was top 3 P4P, and so did all the magazines, that was the best possible fight he could have made at that time. And 154 was clearly Cotto's best chance to hang with Mayweather, at 140 or 147 Mayweather beats him worse. It also took Cotto and Mayweather about 3 weeks to sign a fight after Cotto left Arum. If Arum would have let Cotto fight Mayweather a couple years earlier at 147 you'd all be saying how Mayweather didn't want a piece of Cotto once he got to 154 which was clearly his best weight.

                  You try to have it both ways. Even when Marquez called out Mayweather the haters said, "no way would Floyd fight a technician like Marquez." Then Floyd comes in 2 lbs over the catch weight limit, pays a fine, and proceeds to destroy Marquez with speed and agility, not size. Size had nothing to do with Mayweather beating Marquez 12-0.

                  You all said he'd never fight any of these cats right before he fought and beat them. Then afterwards and as time went by you moved the needle. Now you got called out for it here and your response is that you were just full of crap and exaggerating then, so why take anything you write seriously ever?

                  Floyd fought everyone he needed to fight and he fought them when he could, that's the simply truth.

                      If you turn 18, prime years end at age 32-34 and in 2011 Floyd was 34. Everybody after that was against an out of prime Mayweather.

                      Pro careers usually last 14-16 years, which puts Floyd at 2010-2012. Statistically, he should have retired in 2012.

                      Floyd did 21 years which is absolutely TBE --- even though I don't think HE was TBE, 21 years at that level was. Nobody will ever duplicate that. Thats because of his defensive/counter-punching style.

                      At 21 years pro, Ali had his last fight and was getting bombed on my Trevor Berbick who was a bit trashy.

                      Three years before that at 18 years pro, Leon Spinks was pushing Ali's shít in.

                      When Floyd was 19 years pro, he was pushing Pacuiao's shít in.

                      Sure, Ali took more damage, but that's because he wasn't as good as Floyd was. He didn't have a good defense.

                      Mayweather>Ali. How's about dem apples son!
                      Pushing Pacquiao 's shlt in?? Please, mfkr. Everybody saw that fight and neither fighter went home with not even a scratch. The biggest farse in boxing history. At least Trinidad got the nod for trying to make it a fight. Floyd just got the win because it was most definitely rigged in his favor. He didn't do shlt but run and hug. Slow mo replay of the fight shows everything so while floyd gets the win in the books he loses when people remember the scared floyd who didn't show up to fight.
