    Martinez fights at 160 and i'veseen no articles or interviews where Dibella has stated that he offered Floyd.

    On the Paul Williams issue Paul had one victory of note at the time which was Margarito in 07, that was 2 months after Floyd beat DLH. Floyd semi retired then before Paul even won. Floyd had signed to fight Hatton at the end of the year and planned to permanently retire after. Paul lost his very next fight in feb 08 to carlos ****ing quitana:lol:. He was sure rampaging through the division:roll:

    Please tell me when a fight with Paul Williams was viable. What multiple fighters has he ducked? And please state the time frame.

    On the Pac issue , why do you think its ok for pac to walk away from drug testing the first time then years later say he's fine with it and then state floyd is ducking him because of it? Please tell me that doesnt make sense to you and you are just trolling.

    And if pac was so eager to test then why when they asked Juan to test and he agreed as long as Pac do it also they backed off?

    LOL, If oscar were still fighting today, in this era, Floyd would just be an appetizer before the main course. Can you imagine the money oscar would be doing if this era was his prime. Just think, a p4p champ that actually KO's his opponents!!! LOL lil floyd would be pickin up his leftovers. Had Floyd never fought Oscar, he wouldn't be where he is today, that's a big mistake to make thinking otherwise.

    You notice the floydettes keep harping on about Marquez beating Paquaio in 3 of their 4 fights. They do not credit Paquaio fo giving Marquez FOUR chances to beat him.
    All 3 Marquez-Paquaio fights were razor close. Floyd beat Hatton because Joe Cortez was in ther to ensure Hatton had no chance. Did Floyd give him a return?????
    Floyd acted like the street punk he is when he cold ****ed Victor Ortiz unleashing his hardest combination on a defenceless fighter. Biggest laugh here was Floyd STILL couldn't knock out a defenceless Ortiz Has Floyd offered Ortiz a return????/
    Paquaio & Marquez are FIGHTERS!!!! Mayweather is a feather fisted chicken prima donna

    hahhah

    man you must be pissed that this guy is the best fighter since Pernell maybe even the 4 kings and the highest paid athlete in the world.
    I bet you cried yourself to sleep when he school Oscar, SSM, Coto, Canelo, Ortrees . . . etc. I bet your butt hurt even more when his PPV #s keep going higher and higher and you help because hoped beyond hope that you see someone actually do some real damage on Floyd. i think we should all give CJ (and Flexb) a group hug guys because this little *** needs one:|

    Lets be honest. Floyd's prime was a long time ago, when he was cleaning up lightweight, nobody gave a **** about him. He worked his way up, will give him credit for that, but it wasn't until he fought Oscar, that his popularity exploded. At the time, even Merchant saying during that fight that Oscar is the super star, floyd just a boxing star. And Floyd was thirsty to become what Oscar had.

    When you had the likes of Roy JOnes, Vargas, trinidad, Oscar, Mosley, Whitaker, Quartey etc, there were just too many exciting fighters for anyone to give a fuk about Floyd. That is truth. Now days, they're all gone -- another reason Floyd is where he's at with his popularity.

    You *****'s actually believe Floyd is the PPV king because of the way he fights? LOL It's because nobody else is left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    However there is shadow emerging, a ray of sunlight on this pathetic darkness of snoozefest boxing Floyd has given us. TRIPLE G is on is way up! A man much like the Tito's, Oscar's, Duran's etc. A fighter who can box the **** out of you then KO your ass! Finally we will have a PPV king that brings the pain!

    When is his first PPV fight? Who is he fighting? GGG is a very good boxer may even prove to be great but he's 30 if he's going to be this king he needs to make his move now.

    I predict 1-2 more fights before he's headlining a PPV. He has a good 5-7 years left if he takes care of himself. He's just entering his peak IMO. Jones was talkin about him recently saying how good of a boxer he is, that he isn't in love with his power, that he really works for his openings and then throws his big shots, and how badly he hurts his opponents before they even go down. I wish he was a little faster though, he could use more speed but everything else is there for him, and has a granite chin. People should really be excited about this guy, he's a throwback to the past greats! I think he could hurt Floyd just to Floyd's body alone. Fuk going for his head, we all know it's next to impossible for anyone these days to get too, but his body shots are ridiculous, that left hook crushes ribs.

    as much as i'm a fan of GGG, the bottom line is hes 31 and hasn't fought anyone
    looking impressive against b-graders is different than looking good against the best in the division - not that MW has much to offer right now, but i'd have loved to see GGG in with a prime pavlik or taylor (and of course Martinez)

    He KO'd a big, strong guy last fight in Stevens. The big fights are coming for him, but I do think people may be ducking him and afraid to face him. Who is his promoters? Oscar should have picked him up, definitely would be getting the big fights i'm sure if that were the case.
