    I think his refusal to rematch DLH had more to do with who would have been in Oscar's corner during a rematch than Oscar himself.

    The fight with DLH was not as close as the first fights with Castillo and Maidana, both of which Floyd clearly won anyway.

    But, those two were close enough to warrant a second fight. DLH's really wasn't.

    As for the Pac rematch, we saw Floyd immediately after be fine with a rematch. After Manny came out with bogus excuse, that's when Mayweather changed his mind.

    I have to mention one more thing.

    Anyone trying to justify Pacquiao’s attempted use of Toradol is in effect saying they are ok with a less than level playing field.

      the whole point of this is about money!!! floyd earned his biggest purse fighting pac.. so if it was that easy, why not run it back and rob the bank again? this is not about if the fight was close, etc.. floyd is about money right? and if the fight is not close, that would make even more sense for floyd to do the rematch and get an easy BIG pay day again.........................

        You make no sense. We want to know who is better. You say Floyd is better than Pac and nel o as he beat them? So what if Floyd rematches Pac and Pac beat floyd, then you couldn't say Floyd is better than Pac h2h could you! Comprende?
        You can't say Floyd is better than Pac as he beat pac but not give rematch! Especially more so when Pac has greater resume and so will nel o by end of his career
        I bet this goes all over your head too deep for you. I'm not clever but I'm not blinkered like you that's for sure.
        You think if you pretend to not understand me everything will be ok.

          Floyd said he was down for a rematch but TR was going to have to bankroll the fight. They did the first fight and TR was going to have to do the rematch.

              Only fighter that could of won was Oscar. Don't know why they never rematched?

              All three did better against Floyd then Pac.
              Floyd ducked the agreed rematch and did his fake retirement hence ducking dlh and margarito.

                Smoke and mirrors.

                Oscar wrote in the contract that Floyd had to take such a rematch "within the year" (2007). Oscar's OWN words.

                He then turned around and happily co-promoted (HE was in charge) a mega fight with the top guy at Jr. welterweight (Ricky Hatton) because Oscar wanted the money AND to try and weaken Floyd to try and get an advantage, just like he did with Manny later.

                Floyd fought Hatton on December 8th of 2007. There would have been no time for a fight with Oscar. That was all media nonsense to make it seem like Floyd ducked it.

                Oscar then retires; Floyd says he's ready for a rematch. Oscar then says he's content staying retired:

Instead he gave the #49 spot to Berto for 500K PPV. That’s doesn’t make any sense who prides in making huge PPVs while saying PAC would’ve lost 100 times.

                  Something doesn’t add up. My theory is that Floyd perhaps thought a PAC with a better shoulder could perhaps win in the rematch.
                  Heres you’re answer right here. Now you can either accept what Mayweather says or don’t but either way drop the bullsht pretense of “I’m just asking a question”.

                    So unless Floyd beats Pac and Canelo multiple times, he's not better than they are? Surely even a dullard like you can see how ignorant that is.

                      So I might as well say schmelling is better than louis, turpin is better than srr, Bradley is better than pac etc etc.? Pac can beat Bradley 3 times, so suggesting Floyd beat pac and nel o and dlh x2 isn't unreasonable!
