    Floyd is not interested to fight "anybody" . . . he only wants money. :deal

    **** off liar. You blatantly lied. And now you try to act like you were joking? :patsch

    And you have no clue on my thoughts liar. I never picked Baldomir, and those who you claimed could back you said they would remember if I backed Baldomir. But hey, maybe you think Scar and Pimp C are lying too...

    Basically, you'll say anything to win an argument, even if it means making up lies. You give Arum **** for lying, but do the same? :lol: Eze...you're a loser.

    This is about PBF and his legacy. If he wants to improve it and be compared to the likes Duran and Leonard, he must fight the elite welterweights.

    The rest is irrelevant, because an ATG status does not take into account why certain fights did not happen. So it is only relevant for PBF but not when measuring a fighter's greatness.

    And what about his legacy?? This attitude does not do any good for it.

    Maybe for you PBF fans the deal is sealed and PBF is a TOP 50 ATG. But for the objective viewers, this is not the case at all.

    well, it would be worth more now, no?

    After Mosley thrashed Margarito, it means more than when Mosley beat Collazo.

    Mosley will soon start to look bad again I reckon. Then the fight won't mean anything. The money would be there right now, I'd think.

    You would do a major disservice to Mayweather if you judged him only on his career at 147. Mayweather has pushed for a fight with Mosley for many years (even prior to 2006). That's what the irrational haters either forget or simply don't have the knowledge to know in the first place. I'd love to see the fight and had it happened somehow back in the day at 135 all the better. I am pretty clear that fights with Pacquiao (likely to beat Hatton), Cotto, and Mosley would be awesome - IF he decides to come out of retirement. The point missed by so many idiots on this thread is that Mosley himself decided against a fight with Mayweather, and for damn certain I can guarantee that the same knuckle draggers were NOT shitting on Shane at the time. As I said earlier, many, many factors can get in the way of fights being pulled off in this day and age. For some pimple-faced punks sitting at mommy's computer in a basement somewhere to be calling a world-class talent like Mayweather (who fought from the age of 5 or so?) a "wimp" or "scared" is perhaps the most ridiculous thing you will read on the internet. :deal

    Floyd never seriously pushed for a fight with Mosley, don't fall for a a couple of empty bluffed challenges in the media a few years ago. But last month he did have Haymon call Hatton's father to make a Hatton rematch in 09.

    By avoiding the red hot Mosley now and still trying to score the Hatton rematch proves two things - floyd was is and most likely always will be a chronic handpicker and his phony retirement is nothing but a clever shelter to hide from high risk fights (Cotto, Margarito, Williams, Mosley, etc).

    I thought Floyd was retired, some people on here are so ******ed its funny. He does not want to fight anymore, he also turned down Ricky Hatton, does that mean he is afraid of him too? some of you guys are so dumb its nuts...

    polo, Haymon contacted Hatton's father last month asking about making the fight But Hatton said they couldn't because they were too far advanced in negotiations with Pac. This is fact, it's in Boxing News magazine. He is not retired, he's in hiding, waiting to come out when the right safe fight presents itself.

    So this means Mosley goes down as the guy that fought everyone Floyd wouldn't fight at welterweight.

    To Mayweather: If you don't want to fight Mosley - then just stay retried. Thank you.
