Mayweather's Hitlist Includes JMM, Pac, Cotto, Mosley, & Ortiz

Article dated 5/21/09 from the scene written by Mark Vester

If people thought Floyd Mayweather Jr. was going to return for a payday or two and then head back into retirement, they are very mistaken. Mayweather returns to the ring on July 18 against Juan Manuel Marquez at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Floyd has been away from the ring since a December 07 knockout of Ricky Hatton.

Since Mayweather’s return, we’ve heard the constant mention of the infamous “hit list” that Floyd provided to Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer. Speaking exclusively with ***********.com’s Luis Sandoval, Schaefer disclosed some of the names on Floyd’s hit list. Manny Pacquiao was an obvious name. Others like Shane Mosley and Miguel Cotto are there too. And even a potential fight the down the road with junior welterweight Victor Ortiz, who many view as a future superstar in the sport.

“Yes, he has a hit list. The same thing with Marquez. Both guys want to fight the best. Mayweather, should he win that fight, he wants to go on and [continue to] fight. There is Pacquiao on the list, there is Shane Mosley on the list, there is potentially a Miguel Cotto on the list and maybe down the road somebody like Victor Ortiz,” Schaefer said

this as rumors of a Mayweather-Cotto fight will be announced this week

 

interesting...

mosley-check
ortiz-check

He obviously didnt fight cotto because of what pac did to him but now he can clear that up and add that name to is legacy

And last but not least the duck, pac needs to step up

 

yeah, it was a huge thread in wich a ton of people said Floyd would never fight those guys or do all of that but he's coming through with it

 

I heard about this back then too. Mayweather would fight five opponents after coming out of retirement.

Marquez
Mosley
Ortiz

That's three out of five. There's two obvious ones left.

 

I guess they purposely maneuvered Ortiz career to ensure he could get a fight with Mayweather? They had plans for him far back as 09 when he was still just a light welter

 

Cotto followed by Pac would be pretty sweet.

 

floyds assistant said arum is gonna be shocked when he sees who floyd is gonna fight next week. im thinking its miguel.

 

pacs been hiding the whole time


Looks like mayweather backs up what he says

unlike team duckiuao

good find

GOOD STUFF-

He fought and beat all of those guys minus the ***** Pacquiao who keeps making excuses and Cotto-..Cotto could be next..hmmmm.......

 

there is someone on the scene who breaks alot of Mayweather news. So much so that you would swear he's in the camp or something. He's not a cocky guy or someone who just says things and he just said that its Cotto and it will be announced this week

 

Void has a hit list? Wtf?

More like a duck list and then balance out whos left.

 

comedian?

 

team quackiuao do all the ducking

deal

 

I remember Floyd saying he had a list when he was doing an interview with Brian Kenny. I didn't know who was on it. It seems Floyd has been pretty consistent so far. If he picks Cotto next week the only one that would be left is Manny.
