    He's still one of the champions though and shouldn't Mayweather be trying to unify?

    Are you sure? Margo was the most feared man in boxing and didn't drop out of a fight with Manuel Gomez, I dont think Williams would.

    But anyway, Floyd wanted his time off. Note the 10 months off.

    Bull****...I doubt Alfonso Gomez came to mind after the Mosley fight...gimme a break. Cotto Williams and Cintron would drop everything to fight Floyd if they knew it could happen...but Floyd only wants non threats for max dollars.

    I never said Gomez. I said they were planning Cotto's next fight.


    Cotto's management wants money. Simple as that. They even said they prefer a fight with DLH for money rather than Floyd.

    That's what management say when they're trying to hook a fighter. Look for bigger fish and create interest. They wanted Floyd feel left out and thus try to steal the big fight away from DLH. It happens in baseball trades all the time....get with the program, bro!

    They tried to make Mayweather feel left out and purposely steal the DLH fight.

    But Mayweathers wrong for taking that fight? :huh
