    Both Hatton and Marquez called out Floyd during one of their post fight interviews, and their next bout ended up being against no other than Floyd himself.

    Maybe all these fighters that Floyd has apparently been ducking should get out from under their promotor's scrotum and actually tell the world that they want to fight Mayweather.

    Williams asked for Floyd about a million times. Mosley went on ESPN and dedictated an entire segment to calling floyd out. margartio walked right up to him in front of cameras and asked him for a fight to his face.

    Williams asked for Floyd when Floyd was retired.

    Mosley could have had a bout with Floyd for ten years. And his tooth hurt to much for a bout once, and the second time Jin wouldnt let him get out of their planned vacation for a potential 20 million dollar bout.

    Margarito, I was never sold on him and to me, when he was calling for Floyd had not warranted a bout with Floyd. After Cotto maybe, but before Cotto there were better options.

    Hatton started at 140, Floyd 130 and when Floyd was at 140 Hatton wouldnt fight him.

    Thats a bull **** excuse.

    Hatton was busy fighting KT while fraud was busy having tune-up fights for a fight with C-level Gatti.

    In his third division.

    And neither KT nor Hatton wanted a bout with Mayweather.

    So Floyd will come out of retiremtn for Marquez but not for Williams?


    Feel free to post a credible source for this. As far as I know Floyd made a ridiculous low ball offer and was turned down and his fanboys use that to say that Mosley avoided the fight. Also there is no rule that says that just because a fight couldn't be made in the past it can't be made now.

    And Marquez has done so much to warrant a fight with floyd right? Virtually his entire career was a 126, his best wins are at 135 and is most noteworthy fights are a loss and a draw and he deserves the shot at a welter more than an actual welterweight. If you had started a poll asking who people would rather see floyd fight between margarito and marquez it would have been extremly lopsided in margo's favor.

    You pretty much acknowledged that there is more to getting a fight with floyd than simply calling him out only you backed your argument up with excuses.

    I never said that.

    I'm simply pointing out that the last two undisputed champions to say Floyd's name in a post fight interview got the fight.

    Mosley never has anything to say until Mayweather signs another fight. It happens EVERY time. I wish Mayweather would have signed to fight Shane, but I'll settle for the Marquez/Pacquiao double dip.

    Hatton never called him out during his post-fight interview. He called Floyd "boring" by saying that the fans got more value for thier money in those 4 rounds than they have in Floyd's entire career.
