How can you cherry pick a top fighter in your division?

Agreed. But, both Oscar and Cotto were not near their best by the time Floyd did fight them...

 

And yet people wonder why we boxing fans are fickle !

 

Because thats the fantasy reality they live they honestly believe that he is a take on all comers type of person....:nono

Cotto fought the best available, Margarito fought the best available, Pacquiao fought the best available.....

When the best were there and calling Floyd out he was the best at being un available :deal

 

I have one favorite active fighter, the rest are long retired and finished.

Good luck to Trout - Haymon has got him back to back big fights - but I'm hoping he serves his purpose of letting Canelo show what he's made of and GTFO of Floyd's way so we can get this fight in September.

 

Be Floyd Mayweather and you can cherry pick a top fighter in your division.

Who at WW should Floyd be facing instead of Guerrero? You won't get an answer, or you'll get one you hysterically laugh at like Khan or Marquez again.

Who at Floyd's weight will he NOT be a betting favorite against? Nobody.

Who outside of Top Rank fighters has Floyd been accused of ducking these past years that 'set the standard' of him ducking top competition? Nobody.

ESB.

 

He just fought at Jr Middle so its safe to say he has two divisions he can gets fights in, like I said even Kirkland is a better choice than Guerrero....

or unify either division stop hiding behind the TR GBP Feud and go out and do what you claim your doing go out and make the best fights out there not the best Available the best fights.....

The only reason one would even say best available is simply to cover all bases and claim so and so doesnt want to fight cus he is with bob arum....

Bottom line if you the best fight the best dont talk about it be about it...

 

Pretty sick of seeing daily double standards on Floyd.

 

Kirkland was just given a gift according to majority of the boxing world.. You don't think Floyd would get a massive amount of **** for defending at 154 against Kirkland?? You know damn well he would.

Do you believe the feud to be fake? What Top Rank fighters do you believe Arum will go into negotiations for Floyd with?

Huh? Do you see Arum and Floyd doing business before Floyd or Arum retires? And if so, what fighters from Top Rank do you think Arum will be willing to negotiate with Floyd on behalf of?

 

Floyd creates this false beef with Arum to duck his fighters so he can be allowed to cherry pick his opponents through his bosses promotional company and who do you think DLH is going to put him in there with? not anybody who can win thats his cash cow so by creating this false beef with Arum he has an excuse to duck fighters and cherry pick.

He could have fought Molina then since obviously you feel people would have gave him **** for Kirkland. there are much better fights for him in both divisions but he doesnt want to take on the biggest challenges he wants the easiest path possible.

So to me he the way I see it he creates this false beef with Arum to justify his cherry picking ways...... Fighters like Lennox Lewis never allowed that to be an excuse, they sought out the best fights no matter if there was a network dispute a promotional dispute it didnt matter they pushed for those fights and got them... Because to those kind of fighters, taking on the biggest challenges mattered most.

 

So you don't believe the issue with Arum to be legit? You think it's a coincidence he's not fought a Top Rank fighter since he left him? :huh

And you don't think he'd get **** for taking on Molina? :rofl You're ****ing with me right? You can't be serious....

:thumbsup I've not heard one person who believes the issue with Top Rank is fabricated as a reason to call Floyd a ducker.

 

I get it but don`t we all think that Trout is a dangerous fight for Canelo ? I was shocked that Cotto`s people took him ...

 

Agreed the true great ones wanted it and made it happen. Even getting Bob Arum and Don King to work together !! Even 50 cent that he though PBF had issued taking pac... I do believe there is enough blame to go around. But, in this day and age the two TOP fighters not climbing into the ring at a minimum of 30 mil apiece !!

 

all of them made it happen because they cut from a different cloth they know what this thing is all about its not just about the money its about legacy and honoring the sport....

Floyd looks at it from a different perspective, knowing nobody is going to give a **** about him after boxing so he uses that to justify his cherry picking ways....

its his right to do that but dont expect the fans to sit back and say well Floyd fought them all he is the very best.... you live by the sword you die by it that simple.... but dont go around claiming your better than Sugar Ray robinson when you have a habit of fighting guys like Pea Wee herman

 

It takes two to tango. Pac didn't want to tango. He kept hoping Marquez would grow old overnight and got brutally KOed for his troubles
