Haven't you critized Floyd for Arum's changing of the contract against Winky? Arum changed the contract so his fighter got bulk of the money and not 50-50. So why shouldn't you bash Mosley for demanding the bulk of the money. He had the fight on the table he declined it!
Shane didnt change the contract, these were the beggining stages of negotiations. If Fraud had countered with a 50/50 offer and Shane flat out declined - I would have blamed Shane. Shane didnt duck Vernon or Winky when he could have easily gone a nother route .. . I dont see why Shane would duck the smaller Fraud.
Agreed. But it's not as simple as that. Floyd's maximizing revenues. If he could have made twice as much fighting Cotto/Margarito instead of DLH #1, I think he would have fought Cotto/Margarito instead of DLH.
Yeah, and if you looked up cherrypicking in the puglistic dictionary that would be one of the criteria. Maximizing revenues at the expense of fighting the biggest challenges
:rofl OK, Shane ducked Fraud. :nut Its pretty clear fraud saw both guys against Collazo and took the path of least restance. But goon and defend that coward if it makes you feel better.
we all know Shane deferred to the Fraud-DLH money fight and said all along he would fight him right after. Then Fraud saw what Shane did to Collazo and said "he's a sparring partner". :roll:
Calzaghe easy...anyone who can make 20 defences and not fight ONE P4P guy or even a Hall of Famer must be it. I cant believe the ******s in here choose Mayweather. Corralles,castillo, Hatton, Hernadez, Chavez, De La Hoya ......
15 world champions and three top ten p4p guys on his resume, yeah that is cherrypicking. Just to compare that with some of the other fighters in todays p4p rankings Calzaghe 7 world champs 1 p4p top ten. Pac 8 world champs 3 p4p top 10 The hatered of this guy one this site is unreal and unfounded, some of you guys are totally blind to this kids skill level and his strong resume.
Calzaghe faced everyone in the division that he possibly could. FMJ is avoiding Cotto like the plague. Work it out knobhead.atsch
I agree, in 45 fights Joe Calzaghe has only ever fought one ring top ten p4p, that being 43 year old Bernard Hopkins. As good as Joe is, its a joke to compare Mayweather and Calzaghe records; who are both seen as elite.
Exactly......He faced everyone in a very weak division for a the past decade, a far cry from Jones Toney Mclellan Benn Collins nunn era. A rugby league player has even managed to win a Title...oh Glenn Catley (who the **** is he) he even held the WBC flyd dominated the superfeathers.....beat everyone (at least superfeathers had 2 P4P guys in it) then beat a P4P guy in Castillio then beat P4P Hatton ..... Calzaghe is very lucky....I dont even count half his 20 defences as Legit...I mean what organisation sanction a World title fight between Calzage and ( a Eubank who was given 2 weeks notice to cut 14 pounds) only the WBO and Frank Warren
So how the hell is he the 'biggest cherrypicker of this generation'??? (as the thread title says???). Get real and give up being ESBs biggest hater.
Noy a Hater...I like Joe hes a good guy and an class act. But I am stating the facts, hes been a lucky boy. Hes capitalised on the void left by who i mentioned. Hes been expertly managed. this video sums it up http://youtube.com/watch?v=vmtWEdQghJw
