    Floyd - Bruseles
    Floyd - Mitchell
    Floyd - Guerrero

    So what's your point? Floyd is just as guilty of facing opposition nobody wants to see him go up against in his career, if not more guilty.

    Are you really bringing up fights from dayum near 10 years ago? Seriously? And Aligieri can't Guerrero's jock (resume wise).

    But good luck to you.

    I know you're a pac**** and I don't want to get into a long argument with you but Mayweather has asked Pac to fight him on Mexican Holiday but Pac's promata bab arom is try trying to block the fight from happening like he always did by making excuses about how it's disrespectful for a non Mexicans to fight on Mexican holiday.

    If Mayweather can't get pac, why shouldn't he look for the next available opponent.

    How is Mayweather checkmating fans?

    Mayweather said Pac lets fight on cinco de mayo, but Pacs promoter is trying to sabotage the fight by making excuses about how non mexicans shouldn't fight on that date. If pac and his promoter were really interested in the fight they should have jumped on the opportunity of making the fight instead of their continues habit of unreasonable excuses.

    Bradley had an 0, and Pac did not, therefore, Pac's popularity was shown not to be dependent on a 0. It was an opportunity for them to create an additional star and not lose another...and that's exactly what happened. We all know including Floyd if he were to lose his 0 the shows over, all the controversy about whether he ducked anyone would be "confirmed" and his stock would plummet. Pac and Floyd are not nearly the same situation.

    Is not happening acording to Hoya post yesterday night on twiter the fight with Canelo is signed. Rumors on local newspapers in PR those a very trusty newspapers boxing wise said that is true that Floyd is triying to snatch Cotto with Haymon offering a whopping 40 million dollars to Cotto to strp aside the may 2 date. but Warrior Cotto turn him down for Canelo that is a man that know hoe to pleasse fans. The news wiil spread on web site soon so be ready. Accordibg t Hoya Cotto vs Canelo is done hoya, cotto and Arum is forcing Floyd to fight Pac, Haymon was trying to avoid the fight again, now the only one left is Khan to step aside.

    You cannot be serious


    Pacquiao 4 times - 2 times when he was well past his best - arguably winning them all

    Mayweather - moving up 2 divisions to do this

    Moved up and cleaned out lightweight - at the time the most stacked division in boxing


    Marquez has one of the best resumes in boxing. Only Cotto and Froch rival him this generation in terms of consistently taking the hardest fights
