If Floyd has too face a bigger opponent

[psychopath]

Floyd has been calling out Hatton for the past year now.

Why force Hatton who doesn't to fight him and ignore Marg who's already presenting himself?

[Easy-E]

Honestly, both Floyd and Hatton are ****heads for not even TRYING to negotiate a fight.

We will probably never know what is really happening behind the scenes, either.

Because Hatton is the better, more respected fighter.

I bet some kind of deal is being negotiated right now.... Margarito deserves a shot at the pretty boy. Winky also said he wants the best in the buisness.

I see a fighter, An ordinary fight fan would want De La Hoya VS Mayweather or Winky VS Mayweather but a real fan who knows boxing wants Margarito VS Mayweather....Do yous agree

But as yous have said he's got nothing too gain and everything too loose againt Margarito.

agree with the de la and pbf fight being the fight anyone would appreciate including the ordinary fan. the winky fight can be an avid fan's fight as well as tonys. however seeing winky and floyd, i think is unrealistic until floyd fights de la hoya or tony first.

Winky said he wants the best, He says when he retires he wants too be remembered as the 1 who fought the best.... The will be no Winky Floyd fight for awhile Winky's got too have his rematch with taylor

Better? According to who?

The truth is Hatton is much more HYPED and Pbf will have an eassier time fighting Hatton than Marg. Marg is much more of a HIGH RISK opponent for Pbf and he doesn't want to take that risk.

i disagrea
even tho toni is a good fighter i dont beleive he poses as much of a big threat to mayweather has hatton.
i beleive if hatton comes in the best shape of hes carear he will lose closely or beat him. billy graham and hatton have been saying for about a year that they have got the game plan and the style to beat mayweather and i believe it

I gotta agree with Iron Mike on this one, Tony isn't that big of a threat to PBF( I dont think hatton is either tho), I just think he needs to prove himself by fighting Margarito at 147, but he's not a big name like Floyd (or even Hatton) to be calling someone out and saying he's scared when he doesn't fight him. You gotta see this from all angles, you can get 8 million for a fight with Tony, or more with a fight against the winner of Vargas/Mosley. Even if he truely didn't want to fight Margarito, if there's ever been a time where Mayweather can be somewhat cautious it's now, under a year from a fight against one of the best fighters in the world for more money then he's made his whole career, just commmon sense to me.

Which fight would allow him to still have respect win or lose a fight against Winky Wright or a fight against Antonio Margarito? Which fight in most of the boxing publics eyes would Floyd have nothing to lose and everything to gain??

Thats a question I was asking myself today. And personally if Floyd is going to take a fight against somebody bigger then him I can only see it really being against a Winky Wright or a big name like DLH. In the Margarito case if he Margarito somehow beats Floyd everybody is going to discount Floyd's legacy. If Floyd were to however face a guy like Winky Wright he would get nothing but props win or lose because Winky Wright just fought the MW champion of the world to a draw and is already known around the world as one of the best P4P fighters out there.

So my point behind this thread basically is if Floyd ever decides to face somebody that is much bigger the him and that is a very high risk fight I'd expect him to face Wright before he would face Margarito because Floyd's stock wouldn't drop if he lost to Wright but it would if he lost to Margarito.

Well he fought DLH at 154, does he have your respect now?
