Originally posted by EAAE View PostMayweather is the most talented fighter of this era, but has not fought the best out there and not in their prime, he retired and completely dismissed the thought of fighting a lion like Cotto in his prime, they were both Jr welters at the time, struggled against Castillo, beat a starving Corrales who was beggin him to fight and didnt happen til Chico had court and weight issues, beat JMM who had to jump 2 divisions, beat an old Mosley, the best thing he ever did was beat an inform undefeated Ricky Hatton which i will give him credit for, but as much as i enjoy watchin him fight, its very disapointing he didnt do more with his talent, especially if the Pac fight doesnt happen, which i blame them both for, its seems they're both content not to fight each other.
If they were weight drained, old, shot,etc. it's not Floyds fault.
You fight who they put in front of you.
How many times are people gonna say he ducked Cotto?
Bob Arum kept cotto away from Mayweather. Do your homework before you say dumb **** like that.
As for Margarito, Bob wanted options on Floyds future fights and Floyd declined because he had his sights set on De lahoya who Bob wasn't doing business with at the time.
What great fighter do you know that hasn't fought old fighters?
What great fighter do you know that hasn't fought weight drained fighters?

Originally posted by GRUSTLER View PostPacquiao will be mostly remembered for not convincingly beating
Juan Manuel Marquez, ducking the 3rd fight, refusing a random
blood test and fighting guys coming off loss's, winning titles at
catchweights and fighting 3 of the fighters Floyd beat prior than
Manny when they were winning and better overall. Manny is a joke.
Good fighter but master match maker. Manny is pure entertainment
but not a great fighter because he hasn't tested himself since
2008.
Floyd went outside the rules and regulations of boxing to try to avoid a fight with Manny and it worked.
Period. Everything else is excuses and lies.

Originally posted by GRUSTLER View PostManny Pacquiao fights are ready made like packaged chocolate

Shows how much Pac wants the best challenges because you can't
get no better than Martinez if your really down to make a statement.
Now you've just got to wonder why that is?
What should be obvious as hell is that Pac is limited in terms of opponent skill level. His last six fights are proof of that.
Pac doesn't fight the best at their best and hasn't since 2008, when he got counter punched with reality that his in and out style of mindless, volume punching doesn't work against every fighter.
Freddie Roach really is the best at knowing his fighters limitations and hand picking fights at the right time.
I'll give him that.

Originally posted by bray26 View Postfloyd hasn't said anything, that's my point! If you want something you go and get it, right? Is that what floyd is doing? Keep it 100! It's the biggest fight in the sport, one side talks about it and fights on a regular basis. The other is silent! And you telling me the person thats not saying anything or attempting to make the fight happen is the one that wants it?
Floyd laid his terms and pacroid still ain't agreed. Floyd agreed to pacquaio terms damn near a year ago.
U need to be on pacquiao...he is the 1 holding it up. His "no" is the only hurdle. It always was...let's be foreal!

Their ridiculous arguments are proof of that. It's funny how they unknowingly showcase their immaturity and ******ity.

It's pacquiao not floyd.
When your a great fighter and you're scared of another great fighter, no matter your excuses you are a great disappointment to all boxing fans. But it's a great disappoinment not because you are a great fighter but because you are scared of another great fighter. See???
