    To be honest, I don't really believe fighters duck each other unless it's
    their promoters fault or the fighters come out and say they did ducked him (Ie: Eubank Jones).

    I mean Jones-Bernard, both were too stubborn to come to an agreement, but I'm sure they both wanted to fight each other.

    Floyd wanted Oscar and just played the waiting game insted of fighting Margarito. Then he fought Baldomir because he was the true champion regradless. By the time then, he also hated Arum.

    Not sure on the Viatli thing though....

        When you refuse to fight the Lateral Champ in your divison, whether you think he isn't worth fighting or not, won't make money, aint popular, has no skills...blah, blah, blah....It's called ducking. Be real and admit that.

          Both of these guys HAD nothing to fear and Both would have won the fights easily... And for whatever inexplicable reasons.. They Ducked..

          if It walks like a Duck.. Looks like a Duck and sounds like a Duck.. Its probable it's a Duck..
          there's a difference between the two.

          floyd "ducked" margarito to fight a champ with a more respected belt (WBC, Ring) and to get away from arum.

          quitali ducked and ducked until his body couldn't stand the force of his ducking, hence his back and legs giving out from all the weight it supported from him in a ducking position. hasim and his baltimore cronies had an a.p.b. out on quitali. the wbc had to step in and say "nyet! no fight calvin brock, yes fight hasim rahman".

RJJ who was the nuturally bigger guy fighting at 170s+++ and B-Hop fighting at 160!! Didn't even wan't to fight the smaller guy for some serious money! Thats what u call ducking!
                how did jones duck hopkins??? jones beat hopkins already and was the p4p champ and the star of the sport..and i believe jones was going to go down in weight to meet bernard at a catch weight..so if jones is doing all that, why the hell should it be a 50-50 split?? seriously he beat bhop already and is the main attraction and HE (JONES) is moving down in order to fight this man.. **** it had to be atleast 60-40 for jones.. hopkins priced himself out and HE didnt wanna fight..if a guy beat me and if i wanted revenge i would fight the guy at any price and thats real talk

                    Chuck Norris ducked Margarito, but I mean come on, that's Margarito. Who wouldn't duck him?

                    I still cant over Bowe not just ducking Lewis, but flat out refusing to fight him. Worst duck ever.
