    Really, I fully expected it, Canelo struggled in the Trout fight, and Floyd realized he was ripe for the picking, got him before he had a chance to fix the holes in the game. I thought Canelo Trout should have been a draw, without the KD I had Trout winning, and Floyd knew he has more skills than Trout.

    Mosely, Cotto, and Canelo.

    Mosely was a big fight to take with just 1 fight (against a non WW) in 3 years. After Shane jumped in the ring to challenge Floyd and had Floyd stuttering...most thought he would avoid that matchup at all costs.

    Cotto was more of a dream fight. It was late in the making, but, significant just the same.

    Canelo was just more proof of how great a fighter he is. Moved up to 154 and easily beat the best guy in the division.

    Pac is the only scalp left that he should get on his resume, before he retires.

    These were Pac's demand ? Can you give the link/proof ?:hi:

    The eight-page agreement was so detailed that it indicated which of the two fighters would step onto the scale first at the weigh-in (Pacquiao), who would walk to the ring first (Pacquiao), who would be introduced first (Mayweather) and who had first choice of the locker room (Mayweather).

    Pacquiao - highly debatable

    Martinez - no duck. Sergio called out Pac too, and both Floyd and Pac have/had a belt at 154. So by your logic, Pac ducked him too.

    Margarito - duck, no matter how you shake it. Dude called him out in his face.

    Williams - I'm a go with duck but not sure, no one really fought him.

    prime Cotto - no duck. Cotto didn't do anything to get the fight either. Mayweather was with Top Rank at the time, it was up to his promoter.

    Did you forgot that Mayweather mentioned that he wants the winner of Martinez-Williams?

    My favorite was when he beat Gatti and Cotto and Hatton were ringside looking physically ill. As a hardcore fan I would have rather he fought Tszyu that night though. I think Tszyu overlooked Hatton. He said Hatton "was in for a shock". You know the rest...

    Fighting Canelo at 152 and not fighting Pac in 09-11 will be the biggest holes in his resume. Also Plasterito but I never though marg could stand much of a chance lol.
