Apparently, nobody wanted to see Floyd fight Judah, Baldomir, Oscar, or Hatton. Instead, everyone would rather have seen Floyd fight then really unknown products in Margarito and Miguel Cotto. Margarito who was coming off losses to Paul Williams and get get get this, Daniel Santos. And Miguel Cotto who's largest profle when was a 116-112 decision over Paulie Malignaggi. Of course this is proven by the infamous Brian Kenny interview where he accosts Floyd for fighting Judah instead of tougher matchups in Baldomir and Ricky Hatton. Both of which were guys Floyd had never faced before lol. Sound familiar? Yeah, you cant make this stuff up folks. I remember the only poster on this forum who was pushing for a Floyd vs Margarito fight, was capfunds. Whatever happened to that guy?
Another whiny thread about haters. Grow up little boy and quit worrying so much about others. You're probably too stupid to see the irony of using the term "revisionist" in your thread then posting your cry baby bull****...
Tszyu was with showtime. Floyd was most likely gonna fight Tszyu before Hatton made him tap out with an arm bar.
LANCE THE HATERS MAKE UP MORE THREADS ABOUT FLOYD THAN ANYBODY ON THIS MOTHA FUC4A:deal SAY WHAT YOU WANT ABOUT "FLOYDETTES" BUT GO THROUGH AND COUNT THE THREADS MADE ABOUT FLOYD...THE MAJORITY OF EM ARE MADE BY KNOWN FANS (LATLEY IT SEEM LIKE MORE PAC FANS) THAT SEE FLOYD AS A FIGHTER THAT DUCKS... WHY IN THE HELL ARE THE FLOYD HATERS MAKING UP SO MANY DAMN THREADS ABOUT FLOYD??:think
Floyd wanted the Tszyu fight...couldnt get done...Showtime and HBO...Plus floyd didnt have the demand nor did Tszyu to get it made with a type of co-promotion deal as Tyson and Lewis did
Everyone makes threads about Floyd. Why shouldn't they, he's WORLDLY POPULAR and THE BEST right? Ease up on the all caps..please.
EVERYONE WANTED FLOYD TO FIGHT ZAB WHEN THE FIGHT SIGNED....ZAB TOOK THE MANDATORY WITH CARLOS AND NOBODY EXPECTED HIS LAZY ASS TO LOSE BUT HE DID.... FLOYD SIGNED THE ZAB FIGHT WHEN ZAB WAS COMING OFF IMPRESSIVE WINS OVER SPINKS AND A BLITZING PERFORMANCE WITH A PAST PRIME COSME IN WHICH HE BEAT HIM WITH HIS EYES CLOSED REALLY....ZAB WAS ALSO THE LINEAL CHAMP WHEN THE FIGHT SIGNED... NICE POST THOUGH!:good
Still not answering my questions...check ya news too Lance...Ellerbe said Floyd was open to fighting Shane if the Pac fight isn't made according to one poster on here...
Enough with this "everyone wanted.." stuff. No, not everyone wanted that fight. The moment Zab lost, Floyd should have gone to someone else.
In a way, it's good that everyone stays in Floyd's ****. It prevents him from resting on his laurels. He's accomplished a lot in this sport. However, as long as he continues to fight at a high level, he needs to be fighting the biggest fights available. There's only a few guys in the sport with any real name recognition. Floyd is one of them. Boxing needs its big stars to participate in the biggest fights. The Marquez fight was a good tuneup. However, there are no more freebies. The fight with Pac definately needs to happen this year. If it can't be made next, then he needs to fight Mosely next and then Pac at the end of the year.
He signed a contract...u dont sign contracts and than back out...Plus who else was there to fight around that time at 147?? I believe Shane was at 54 with Vargas....Oscar was still at 54 as well and Floyd was chasing him... Tony was tied up with Gomez.... Zab was supposed to fight Floyd in November which ended up not happening cuz of the mandatory in Baldomir.... C'mon Lance u know ur **** better than this my man!
NOPE...At this point manny pac is the best fighter in the world today! That comin from a fan of Floyd too...
