Mayweather has never taken on a number 1 fighter in the last 8 years

And he went and fought Baldomir, doofus.

 

Oscar was looking for an opponent so Floyd bounced out of the contract with Arum so he is able to fight Oscar. I do not know why you insist on trolling when you know what happen.

Even if you do not know what happened. Floyd fought Oscar who was in everyway a better fighter than Margo, so you fail again.

 

That damn Floyd, how dare he fight for the WBC and Ring WW titles before taking on Oscar. :fire

 

Is that Mitchell?

 

So Baldomir was the better fight then Margarito? He had plenty of opportunities to fight Margarito, before and after Oscar.

 

Soooo Floyd would have fought Margo, AND asked to take on Cotto and Hatton and Oscar.. Damn, he's never taken on the #1 fighter or tried. That Floyd is cherry picker #1!! :twisted:

 

floyd made 25mm+ fighting oscar.

what idiot would rather fight margo for 8mm than oscar for 25?

only idiots on the esb forums.

 

Done talking to you, wasting my time. Floyd would have fought Margo if Arum compensated him properly for that and future fights. Arum said he wanted no parts of that, so Floyd left. How many of Arum's fighters has Floyd fought since he left?

 

I enjoy Floyd's skills but this is somewhat true. Pacquiao fight in 2009 would've been the best of this era but Floyd simply chickened out.

 

Yeah , he could have fought Margarito instead of those world beaters like Sharba Michell, Judah and Baldomir. :!: Or he could have fought him instead of Ricky Hatton. Or he could have fought Mosley instead of Marquez in 2009.

If he wanted the Cotto fight he could have made it. He's his own boss yet he can't make the fights he wants to make?

He seemed pretty happy about fighting Ricky Hatton then retiring for 2 years when Cotto, Margarito, Mosley, PW were all available . :!:

 

He fought Baldomir when he was offered to fight Margarito... THEN he fought Oscar.

Either way he could have fought Margo after Oscar. Just like he could have fought Mosley, Cotto, PW, Pacquiao -- but he didn't. Facts don't lie. :deal

 

He wasn't allowed to fight Oscar if he fought Margo first.

 

Yes baldomir was a better choice than Margo. Margo was an ESPN fighter. Baldomir upset Zab on HBO. If you are a fighter WTF would you do?

Not to mention, who the **** did Margo beat to deserve a fight with Floyd at the time that was better than Baldo? Also Floyd goes after the division titles (WBC) and Margo have the lowest regard title at the time WBO. Every angle doesn't makes sense for a price fighter.

 

@Jakboxer

Since you act like you know so much and want to talk about Floyd "ducked" Margo. You should remind youself what happened to Margo. Whose best victory was against Cotto and he cheated. Then when he got busted and he got obliterated by Shane Mosley. And guess who was willing to fight Shane? It was Floyd, not your hero Pac. During that time Roach wanted Shane to fight Pac at 144 catchweight. QUACK!

 

Stop wasting time with him.. He was shown Arum refused to make those fights when Floyd was under him due to the money... If Arum wouldn't make those fights with two fighters under his promotion, why the hell would he allow Mayweather to fight them promoting himself when Arum will be getting half of what he could have? Margarito fight was going to be bigger and make Floyd a bigger star than Judah, Baldomir for multiple titles and Ricky Hatton.
