    I had a conversation at the gym with a Pac fan. He would list these fighters Mayweather ducked. Then when I asked him when the opportunity presented itself for FMJ to fight these guys... His face went blank! He stuttered and just repeated himself.

    The entire ducking argument falls apart when you actually start examining history.

    ROFL. I assume this is your way of ducking the argument. Understood.

    BTW - did you proof read your own postings? I hope not because at least you would have an excuse.

    I Googled "Pinoy" - wow you really hate Pac that much to think everyone who argues with you is a Pac fan. You must have a Pac fetish. That and your argument is so shitty that any one can demolish it.

    Floyd went on vacation instead of fighting pac and the only excuse he had is he's on vacation.

    He didn't say anything about his uncle's trial is coming up or pac hasn't agree to the testing. All he said is he is going on vacation and his not really thinking about fighting right now.

    You can't blame anybody calling him a ducker-coward for that.
    he outright ducked pacman.

    lol, i love how the *****s were all patting each other on the back and throwing the "we got spirit" cheer out to everyone at the start of the thread, and it winds down to the biggest duck in history.

    C'mon, he retired when welterweight was the hottest division in boxing where Cotto, Margo, P.Williams and Mosley were all considered great fights for him and would have made him a lot of money if you use that angle to justify his fight selections. And he came back to fight JMM for ****s sake. Ok he was finally forced into the Mosley fight after coming back and he gets props for taking that, but besides that his fights have been weak in the past 5 years when he campaigned at 147.

    His wins at 147 consist of two natural jr welterweights coming up to fight him (Hatton and a shot Mitchell), a lightweight JMM coming up to fight him, Judah coming off a loss to Baldomir, and the great man himself Baldomir. **** weak and that's how he wanted it. Especially after DLH gave him a tough fight at 154. He was always going for low risk, high reward fights after that. Call that smart, whatever. If it means he avoided the toughest challengers, it's ducking.

    It's convenient to blame Arum for everything considered anti-Mayweather, but it's Mayweather's actions which speak louder to non-biased observers. Such as his sudden 'vacation' now to avoid yet another perceived challenge in Pac.

    The analysts on ESPN are not going on what Arum says when they are calling Floyd a coward. Arum actually defended Floyd on this trying to protect the fight for 2011 in the hopes not too much damage will be done to it by Floyd's new ploy to avoid it.

    you forgot to add the fact that on the same day of the Pac-Hatton fight, he opted to fight Marquez.

    He obviously wanted to **** on Manny's parade and steal the lightning. Except..Manny blitzed Hatton in 2 rounds. Floyd's fight with Marquez gets pushed back till September. He didn't offer Marquez step aside money...and the rest, is history.

    did he dudck pacman? depends how you define the word.

    did arum really want the fight? i doubt it.

    did floyd have the opportunity to respond to arums public call out and silence his critics? absolutely.

    all he had to was come public and accept the challenge. if arum was bluffing he would have been exposed.

    but floyd lost out to his ego and had to let the deadline pass unanswered. it has cost him a lot of fans and rightfully so.

    so no, floyd didnt duck pacman because arum said so, he avoided the fight because he wanted to go on holiday. call it what you will but that is how it happened.

    Made more money, started being more choosy in his opponents, fights became more boring. Dloyd really wanted to be DLH his whole career...at least he became "Golden Boy Jr" at the end.

    Floyd selects his opponent carefully, he fights opponent on the perfect opportunity, like what he did with Mosley (very old). It's obvious Floyd duck Pacman.

    So what does this prove? That he wasn't a ducker at one point? Yeah that's true. He wasn't such an annoying cocksucker either. But things have changed.
