    Brian Kenny said Floyd was ducking him.

    There's an even better video of all the press and media saying that Floyd bit off more than he could chew and might get knocked out.

    You are not a fan of his!

    You are actually classified as a groupie.

    I remember Emmanuel Steward saying that Carlos was so tough and strong he wasnt sure Mayweather could handle him LOL he soon changed his mind by the end of the fight and STILL didnt give Floyd any credit, complaining that he should have stopped him - even though he had broken his hand early in the fight.

    Even back then people desperately wanted to believe Mayweather was going to lose, that they believed in Baldomir :patsch

    How in the hell would a 9 losses (against bums too) be considered a threat is beyond me.

    Before the fight he was accused of ducking him

    Baldomir brought too much pressure, was too relentless, too strong, he'd already beaten Judah

    After the fight.....
