    I am no Floyd supporter but his win over Judah is a very underrated one. Judah was at his best and it very difficult to dominate a focused Judah. I also think Judah is only one of the very few who can match Floyd's speed.

    Judah was also coming of a loss to Baldomir.

    No logic. Floyd said it-its all about business. What he wont say is that its also about minimal risk to maintain the 0 while making the most $$$. His excuse of fighter A or B having losses was hilarious. Who is he then going to fight, only undefeated fighters?? And how come its ok to fight ODH and Marquez who have losses, but Pacman and Cotto and Mosley and Clottey have all lost so they are garbage?? It just points to the logic of most $$$, minimal risk. How is Marquez good enough to fight with his losses but not Pac or Cotto? MAKES NO SENSE. Floyd knows this. Fans and the public are beginning to realize this. Great thing is Floyd WILL HAVE TO fight the big guns soon because there are fewer options and he has a 5 fight deal, 4 still remaining.

    I also never understood the reason why Floyd brings up how much percentage Arum takes from Pac's purses :huh. Why the hell should it matter to Floyd? Only thing Floyd should be concerned about is his own take home. Whether Pac keeps 90% or 10% of his purse money, why should it matter to Floyd? :huh

    You guys are taking what he says out of context. There is no real point in trying to break it down because you guys hear what you want to hear. Read what you want to read.

    Even though it is pointless I will still give my opinion. This is not meant to defend PBF but only to provide the logic that you asked for to what he states. So it doesn't matter if we agree with that logic or not this is just IMO Mayweathers opinion.

    He doesn't say that he won't fight a fighter BECAUSE of those losses. But he stats a mans losses to defend himself when people claim that he is scared or ducking that opponent. Example RA stated how Williams would kick PBF's ass. PBF then stated something like '' The same Williams who got out boxed by Quintana''. This does mean that PBF will not fight Williams because he has a loss. But is stating what makes RA so sure that Williams would beat his ass when Quintana who is a lesser fighter then him was able to outbox him for 12 rds.

    I don't believe he cares that Mosley has losses. Mosley had losses in 06 and he still called him out. I believe PBF has lost interest in Mosley for 3 reasons. Number 1, because he took steroids and Mayweather may have lost the respect for him to the point that he will not help Mosley get a payday. Number 2, because of a grudge he holds against Mosley since he didn't want to fight PBF when it would have boosted PBFs career. But now wants to fight PBF since he is close to the end of his rope and has nothing to lose but a big payday to gain. Number 3, he is waiting for the winner of Pac/Cotto.

    When PBF states that all these fighters are beating each other but nobody is beating PBF. I believe his meaning for that is that. Since each of these fighters have losses. They all have blueprints on how to be defeated. Since he has not lost yet, there is no blue print on how to defeat him yet. I got that conclusion because he said something along those lines a while ago.

    You can't really take everything PBF says so literal or you are only going to take it out of context. He is just not that good with words and saying what he really means. Just like when he stated how Philippines have the best performance enhancing drugs. That was in response to how Pacman was able to climb weight in such fast period of time and still have such great success. I don't believe he was serious with that though. I think that was a tongue in cheek type of response. I think if PBF really though Pacman was taking performance enhancing drugs then he wouldn't be looking to fight him.

    Its called "deflecting from the topic/agrument at hand". During that interview Floyd never really answered questions logically. From throwing out statements that fighter A or B had a loss so why should he fight them, to bringing up how much Arum takes from Pac when it has no impact on Floyd or answers the question at hand. You "deflect" when you dont have a legit answer, much like politicians. Or you ramble off stuff that has nothing to do with the topic so that you can hopefully get a topic going that you feel more comfortable talking about. Its so pathetic, especially since Floyd says hes the greatest and bigger then boxing, but cant address the issue of why hes not fighting the best out there. Floyd knows it too. While I thought the interviewer was disrespectful, I was quite happy to hear someone really question Floyds statements and reasons for not fighting the welter top dogs out there. Floyds illogical answers spoke volumes about how he really feels about stepping in the ring with an opponent that can potentially compete on his level. As George W. Bush once famously said "Not gonna do it" (you have to use the Texas accent for full effect).

    I also believe that the PBF quote about there beating each other but nobody is beating PBF is directed toward Cotto and possibly Williams more then anyone else. I believe he thought Cotto or Williams would clean out the division and be undefeated. Then he was going to come out of retirement and fight them for record breaking PPVs.

    Forget Cotto, Margarito, Williams and Pacquiao for a moment, in that interview Floyd stated its not about fighting the best, "But boxing isnt like that anymore" That right there tells you that Floyd is not about fighting the best, he is about taking the fights that bring him the most money at the lowest risk, which is what we have been saying for a very long time.

    No matter what you say about Cotto, Pacquiao, Margarito, Williams and Mosley, Floyd himself admitted its about the money..... So its not like Floyd fans have an arguement or a leg to stand on

    I like when the guy in the backround told Floyd..."But Floyd, your bills are already paid, and youre already rich. Fight for legacy now"
