    Man please. The only fighter any of you guys can mention that makes a lick of sense is Williams. I can cede that, but who was lining up to fight him? Kicking Margarito's can sealed his fate at WW.

    Man and you still haven't said anything of import... Damn Addie.

    Stop it. You think a man like Castillo was scarred for life after losing to Floyd? He was probably like "yeah he ran from me". You need help.

    Emmanuel Steward said he thinks he could hang in any era.

    They were all fighting each other you dumb****:patsch

    You complain that people don't give Floyd credit for his legacy and all you do to defend him is talk about how the money was more important than anything.:tired

    I'm back from a **** up, and this is absolutely comedy gold to wind you lot up. So far we've had you saying Floyd could have knocked out his opponents he just opted not to, and Fitz credits Mayweather for inventing pure boxers.

    No I don't you idiot. Money IS more important than anything. Why the hell are they fighting? For the "fun" of it?

    Fights make sense or they don't. If a guy is in the process of fighting another guy, why are you standing on the sideline yapping knowing damned well he can't fight you?

    Margarito knew that going for the belt was the point of fighting Judah. He lost it to Baldo, but the contract was signed. Marg knew Baldo was next. After than it was obviously Hatton. Instead of cultivating himself and being ready for the opportunity he yaps about being feared.

    Mosely knew damned well that Pac was the next fight. Still he was yapping like people were dodging him.

    I like good fights as much as the next guy, but how in the hell are you going to act like money isn't a factor? It is the driving force behind ALL FIGHTS!

    That isn't what I said. I said he could do more.

    I am just having fun wasting time.

    Cough.....BULL****! Look I have always stated I don't think PBF is scared, and I never said, "I know for a shadow of a doubt that PBF didn't want certain fights.

    But *****s always want to give credit for something you haven't done. All I am saying is he doesn't have an impressive record at 140lb....period. Not debating why he doesn't and I am not going to give him credit for win he never got.

    More BULL****! PBF was never in a position to fight Shane. If Arum wanted to make that fight it would have gotten offered and made. He made the DLH fight. PBF could call out GOD it didn't matter back then because Arum ran his career. And Arum was not looking to make this fight.

    If you even knew your PBF history this what PBF was mad about. He didn't know why he didn't get a crack at Shane at 135lb instead of DLH getting Shane to move up to 147lb.

    But Shane never denied **** because it was NEVER OFFERED to him by Arum!

    This is the only CORRECT thing you have said. It is true Cotto didn't probably fight PBF because of the feud between PBF and Arum. Hatton that really isn't true. All Hatton said was let him come to America and build his name up first. PBF decided NOT to wait. I don't have a problem with this at all. You got to go where the big fights are sometimes.

    MORE ***** BULL****! Again guys we can check this INFO! Go back and look at the tape. Larry says, "Shane it was know prior to your rematch that you stated you will NOT be fighting again this year but...."

    Shane says, "I want to fight PBF but NOT this YEAR, why doesn't he fight Margo on his next date and then fight me next"

    Larry says, "But wouldn't that mess up your bosses plan"

    Shane says, "No, then I will fight PBF after he fights DLH then I have no problem if he takes that big money fight first, I understand"

    Now what is it you *****s don't understand again?

    .

    The 2nd correct thing you have said. But to show you I am fair and objective; I never said or thought PBF was scared of Margo, he was just sticking it to Arum who he felt stuck it to him. And I don't think he was scared of Shane, he was just sticking to Shane because he felt slighted in the 2006 interview.

    Stop it....NO ONE SANE WAS SAYING THIS! They were saying why fight Judah when he just got beat?

    Again *****s playing the victim. What credit was he supposed to get for beating Baldo? Tell me please.

    And again this is going to hurt, as *****s find this hard to believe, but why should we jump up down because Floyd beat DLH at 154lb where he was only ranked in the 5th best off a victory over Ricardo who never did anything at that weight? And DLH was a part time fighter at the time......so again why should we be praising floyd for this win?

    And if you mention Pac I am going to SCREAM.......who cares what some bias media members or IDIOTIC pac fans claim about their victory over some shell of himself DLH.....who cares!

    I don't talk about Floyd as a person because I don't know him personally. I am only talking his boxing career. Again *****s want to play victim and try and distract with talk of personal.

    I don't care about his personal life.

    Wrong that is the fight HE IS GIVEN CREDIT for not only winning but giving an IMMEDIATE REMATCH because some (not myself) thought the decision was controversial.

    You see *****S love to FOCUS on the BIGGEST DUMBEST HATER and say, "See what everyone is saying about Floyd".

    Just because some Frothing at the mouth hater says it doesn't mean that is what sane boxing fans and scribes think.

    FYI, the Castillo fight represents the last time Floyd fought without concern for his "0". That was the last of the great PBF........instead what we have gotten since is a guy who wants CREDIT FOR THINGS HE HASN'T DONE!

    This amount of truth may be difficult for some people to swallow. Excellent post, sir.

    Baldo was linear welter champ but there was no way he'd keep that very long. A good solid boxer would always own him. Just don't stand in front of him(unless you have some slick Sweet Pea in the pocket skills) and he is too slow and limited to beat you. I guarantee Cory Spinks could have done the same thing. And he did to a similar fighter in Mayorga. Judah would NEVER EVER beat Floyd because he's too unfocused despite all that ability. He learned this years ago when he sparred Floyd.

    As for DLH, Floyd gets credit for the size difference but Oscar was far too inactive at that time of his career to have a chance against a slick fighter like Floyd. 2pounds Forbes proved than when he marked Oscar's face up prior to him eventually fighting Pac. Pac doesn't get much credit for beating a dehydrated corpse(though most including me thought he was literally gonna die in this fight) and Floyd gets marginally more for beating a very inactive Oscar who at his age needed all the activity he could manage against Floyd's style(quick and defensively slick counter puncher) Oscar at this stage of his career would also have struggles with Spinks(who showed he could handle size by losing a very disputable decision to Jermain Taylor at 160....at 154 versus a rusty DLH he'd give him equal fits)
