As soon as Pacquiao entered the division he did, and Williams and him were never in the same division. At the end of 2008, there were 4 fighters ranked higher than Pacquiao at welterwight. They were: Cotto Clottey Margarito Mosley In the following year after he destroyed the no1 light welter in the world he took apart Cotto and then proceeded to destroy the others in an 18 month period, basically as fast as he could. If Floyd would have done the same in his welterweight reign I would have given him props and you could not argue with his welterweight record between those years. But he never, and then when he came out of retirement he proceed to duck Pacquiao and continued to duck him for 4 years. Disgusting behavior, shameful.
Floyd's team was looking to negotiate with Cotto, and Cotto signed to fight Gomez. Why is that Floyd's fault? Cotto flat out admitted he didn't want to fight Floyd. http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id/7626156/my-best-biggest-victory Don't even get me started on Mosley. He denied Floyd a fight on 3 different occasions, and didn't want to fight him after he beat Vargas yet somehow Floyd was ducking him? I'm done. You don't know what you're talking about.
Give up, these guys list Casamayor, Freitas, Stevie Johnston, Kostya, Vivian Harris, Margarito, Williams, Cotto, Mosley, Pacquiao, Alvarez, Sergio, Andre Ward, and Kryzstof Wlodarczyk as opponents that Floyd 100% clearly ducked because he is a coward.
Floyd announced his retirement after the Hatton fight, and the Cotto fight was meant be in the summer.
Stay ignorant. Everyone on ESB knows ur a dumbass. u don't even follow boxing. U discredit Floyd for missing weight and u let Pac get a pass, You accuse Floyd on going to vacation while u let Pac get a pass with i'm afraid of needles and not wanting Random drug test. Say u give Pac credit for fighting fighters coming off bad defeats making demands to get an advantage while u discredit Floyd's enough to try to meet JMM at a catchweight, Fought JMM, SHANE, Cotto, Hatton all coming off impressive wins. Who is truely a coward? Not to mention Pac was in on it when his promoter gave Bradley the fight. Last time he lost to Morales, he cried like a little girl.
Yeah I should, you can show these guys an apple and they'll continue to say it's a banana. Then they'll try to convince others to think it's a banana. You just can't get through to them. I can finally understand why some of my colleagues left these forums.
D4 with your multiple alts. You are just a sad complusive liar. 90% of what you say have no prove just speculations. You failed even as a troll.
Look at this joker. You know damn well the only person that FLoyd can somewhat considered as a duck is margo since FLoyd fights for top rank and should fight whatever the promoter ask of him. Everything else u listed is horse****. Provide the sources.
He Just compile a list of fighters around his weight class and add Floyd ducks them. Dumbasses. Go convince idiots with no boxing knowledge with that weak ****, is not going to fly here.
I know who the best fighter that were around at the time, I know the fight I wanted to see, Floyd never took any of them. When I see fighters like Froch who money is secondary and the glory comes first and will purposely search out the best fights available, it just proves to me what a fraud Floyd is. True ATGs want to fight the best and test themselves, they love the challenge. Floyd just wanted to make smart business decisions. His own words.:deal
Wow... I was obviously being sarcastic. My post was oozing with sarcasm, dude. Do you not know who Kryzstof Wlodarcyk is?!? I would say Margarito is the only person one could say he ducked, but you'd be ******ed because a W over Oscar at 154 meant more than one over Margarito.
Look at you ******s arguing about something like this. atsch Obviously he is, just depends on where one places him. And BTW, has anyone defined what constitutes an ATG? Or is this some lame ass, vague fanboy definition y'all are going on?
Alright, your actually an idiot when it comes to elementary English if you couldn't tell that I am 100% on your side of the argument, if you can call it an "argument." My list is the dead serious list that I've seen people make, which is a joke. You're attacking the wrong person and for that, I will call you dumb.
