I thought it was great when Sonni was carrying on and told Paul Briggs, "you can't knock me out Paul", you could see the hurricane rising untill...
Markus Beyer v Danny Green I.
Do you think a fight with Miguel was ever on the radar for Floyd? To me, when Miguel was building his rep up as the logical choice for his next...
You aren't aware that Zab got KTFO by Kostya then?
At 147 Cotto by ko round 4-6, after a close few rounds to start off.
And they have losses. What is the point in fighting guys with losses? They've already been beaten, so poor Floyd will get no credit if he fights...
Good thread, you could've just said "welters" instead of "good welters" in the title though...
20/20 hindsight is a wonderful thing, but honestly 2 years ago if someone said Manny would handle Cotto like he did, I would've called bull****.
He had heavy financial backing from Bill Mordey in Australia though.
FFS, do it 40-40 with the winner getting the other 20 and get it done.
He wasn't shook by clean blows landed by Cotto, so I doubt one shot from Floyd will send him to sleep.
I don't see you adding too much either, if Cotto wasn't comfortable defending his belt at 145 he shouldn't have signed to fight at 145, end of story.
Why does Floyd talk about Manny having losses on his record as being a reason that he has nothing to gain, when he's only fought 2 undefeated...
Floyd might try to make it a 154 fight to get out of it though.:smoke
147.
