    Yeah Baldomir the Lineal #1 champ
    Judah #3
    Mosley #1 and Champ (Pacs team **** themselves when Mosley was mentioned and Floyd fought him)
    Ortiz #3 Title contender

    Not bad for "hand picking" huh?

    Exacty there's an excuse after every PBF fight. He can't win with haters. He could go up and fight Ward at 168 next and the haters would say Ward was injured rusty and is coming off a year plus layoff and should fight the real threat in GGG instead. It will never end.

    it's now apparent that floyd wasn't serious, he didn't really want to fight pacquiao.

    Not surprised as I expected ,justifying the cherry picking !

    Tell me what did Judah and Ortiz do to deserve a crack at MW ?

    Juadah lost to Baldimor and Ortiz beats Berto ..Those wins are worthy of fighting the best p4p:patschOh that's right their rankings :lol:

    Then tell me who really wanted Mayweather Baldimor ?Don't give me that belt chasing crap ..The lineal title wasn't always held by the best in the division..There were much better fights than the Baldimor fight ..


    Just sad ..With all that talent he picks these guys to showcase his skills ..I'm surprised Gatti wasn't mentioned since his skills were on par with his ranking ! lFloyd fans are nothing but ranking slaves ..

    I remember this,also Pac wanted Mosley @142 orignally.. Amazing if Floyd was mild mannered we would not be hearing about ducked this and that.. We forget Manny ducked Floyd,Mosley orignally,avoided Juan for 3 years,avoided Cotto @ 154 after he beat him etc...

    *******s mad bc Floyd is the real deal and fighting someone dangerous while Pac is fighting Rios. If Pac is the one fighting Canelo, they would act like is most dangerous ATG fight.

    Not words but actions.......................Void has been running from Pac since Pac stopped Cotto. If Pac is such an easy fight for Void he would have fought Pac years ago. Easy money!

    I'm not getting into the whole who offered who what bull****.

    But Mayweather didnt want the fight against Pacquiao. He saw Pacquiao as a threat. This talk of people wanting to see May fight Mosley over Pacquiao is ridiculous.

    Mayweather has always hand picked his opponent's based on style. Ortiz, Mosley, Cotto, Hatton etc. might have been legit on the ranks, but lets not pretend like they arent going to come forward, throw some hooks and get countered all night long.

    Alvarez though, COMPLETELY different story. 100% respect to Mayweather for this fight. If he beats Canelo like he's beat everyone else, I'm willing to concede as him being the all time great.

    The fact is pac turned down a record breaking predicted $50 million each and turned it down, Why caz he was on peds, when people smell the coffee. Its quite obvious to me now, Pac come off the peds and started making a load of noises but lets be honest Pac isnt the animal he was and would get badly beaten by Mayweather..

    I love some of the arguments of the PEDs stuff. People said Pacquiao came off the PEDs for the Bradley and latest two Marquez fights. Did these people ever watch Pacquiao fight? Pac looked bad when his opponent moves backwards or hides behind their shell (Mosley, Clottey). In the Marquez fight, Marquez again is a strong defensive fighter. The knockdown and KO were INSANE from Marquez, but Pacquiao looked better than he ever has against JMM in that fight. Pac finally figured him out and it's obvious enough he would have won had the perfect punch never came. Pac hasn't lost it. Rios is a come forward and fight kind of fighter. The Pacquiao that beat Hatton, Cotto and Marg will return in this fight.

    Oh trust me, I wouldn't remember people that **** on the "wind". There was a lot of demand for Mayweather to fight the real #1 welterweight, especially after the post fight interview scuffle, Mosley. It went far enough for Pacquiao and his team to openly tell Mayweather he should fight Mosley but he wouldn't because he's "scared". Remember the endless Freddie Roach comments about Mayweather having to fight Mosley?, I don't think that came without enough fan demand and media attention.
