    I ran into Floyd at the Victor Ortiz press conference. He stood up to the mic and said "And yes, Manny Pacquiao, you're next."

    So Floyd was considering him after Ortiz for sure. True story.

    I remember when the media and many ******ed fans saying Mayweather is scared of this guy because he lost a sparring session against him.

    well, yeah, he was considering pac if the conditions were right. Your mockery seems pointless, I am relating Floyd's stated intention circa 2004-2005. He had Spadafora on his mind as a potential opponent.

    Easy money was his MO? I dont think it has ever been the case. He wants the fight that brings in the most revenue he has always done that. It just he is better than everybody.

    There's always fighters supposedly facing multiple opponents. Means nothing, that's why they are rumors. Was the purpose of this thread simply to reminisce? Pointless thread from a useless poster...
