    Floyd is always ducking somebody until he inevitably fights him then everyone on the forum trashes the opponent like he should have beeen fighting somebody else.

    Floyd is ducking Mosley.
    Floyd is getting exposed by Mosley.
    Floyd fought a shot Mosley.

    True, he didn't beat prime Mosley or prime Cotto. Oscar and Marquez too were well past prime (although timeline wise wouldn't have mad sense/been possible to fight sooner). They were not close to there primes. That said, Mayweather is now 10 long years removed from his own prime at 130 pounds in 2001, people seem to forget...

    Also, it is true and well known that Cotto and Pacquiao both declined official fight offers to face Mayweather at some point in time before the fights actually occurred. Cotto in '06 and Pacquiao in '10.

    Give it 20 years before we judge the current eras fighters' place in history. Especially an active fighter, that's just dumb. Holyfield was regarded as an ATG heavy during his reign, even when he had so few fights. Jones was regarded by many as the best fighter of all time or an unstoppable best ever "H2H". Pacquiao was thought to be perhaps the finest of his generation and regarded as a reborn giant killer until he fought 38 year old Marquez for a third time...

    Everyone gets caught up in the moments, especially when it is fighters of THEIR OWN era, and refuse to acknowledge perspective as reality. It took many years and some fans/writers to die off before Jack Dempsey wasn't universally regarded as the best HW ever.

    Why does't Khan call out Pacquiao? Because he "sparred with him" is a bull**** excuse to save him from the retirement papers pacman would administer him.

    Can't stand Khan, so how am I a Britardish? P.S. I also think the term is Brittard.

    They have the same trainers. Nothing to do with them sparring. If Khan does split from Roach, he probably will call out Pacquiao once he gets his career back on track.

    Ortiz < Maidana < Amir Khan

    To hate or not to hate...

    Floyd is an Elite and the Best of the Best. Why would Floyd fight a Paskitani Bum?
