    Which boxers Blatently ducked and avoided other fighters?

    Ray Robinson ducked Charley Burley - If Ray Robinson can have 19 losses, then there aint no valid excuse for dodging Burely.

    Ray Leonard ducked Aaron Pryor - Pryor begged for a fight and Leonard refused.

    (Mayweather ducking Pac or vice versa aint really unamiously agreed upon)

    name some more clear cut duckings?

    Sturm/Pavlik seemed to duck Abraham for years.

    Tyson ducked Lewis, paying him 2mil step aside money before Holyfield I, saying he wasnt ready to face Lewis at the time.

    Collins retired rather than face Calzaghe.

    Hatton ducked Witter early in his career, i love Hatton, hate Witter, but there is no 2 ways about it, But Witter was a dick for asking 50/50 in Hattons homecoming which turned out to be Luczano, otherwise we could have seen the fight.

    Everyone was ducking mosley, including pac/roach.

    Floyd was more or less forced to take this fight.

    Roach even admitted it, for the money available, Mosley was too dangeous, exactly the same reason Ray Robinson gave for not facing Burley.
