    "You are pretty good at making excuses. Tszyu would have fought Floyd over mandatories. What about Paul Spadafora, who had made a fool out of him in sparring? Are you saying that DLH took on everyone, but Mayweather? Only to do it, when he was even more past prime?"


    Tszyu was stripped of two titles because of inactivity. You have zero idea about his availibility. Since when is it all on one fighter to make a fight happen? A fight between Floyd and Spadafora was proposed on multiple occasions. One time, Spadafora turned it down for monetary issues. Another time, the fight was scrapped after Spadafora couldn't get a liscense in NewYork. I never said DLH ran from Mayweather. I said he had no interest in fighting him. Floyd wasn't marketable enough for Hoya. You can't simply fight Hoya anytime you want. The man has too many options. Your argument on the Hoya issue makes zero sense. How you blame Floyd for that fight not coming off earlier is beyond me.

    Once again, you have no idea what you're talking about. You're simply making up your own assumptions. He did not chose any of those fighters over Tszyu as Tszyu was not a realistic option.

    And Baldo was the WBC/ring champ. Furthermore, I never critcised Hoya for not fighting Floyd earlier, I said he wasn't interested in the fight. Yeah Floyd was allegedly offeres $8 mill to fight Margo in the fall of 2006, he got paid $10 mill to fight Baldo in the fall of 2006. So now he's getting paid more money to fight a higher ranked fighter with a more prestigious belt.

    Incorrect. You criticised Floyd for fighting Zab after Tszyu beat him. However, you neglect to mention that Tszyu beat him 5 years earlier and that Zab was the undisputed WW champ when Floyd first agreed to fight him. I don't see how Floyd needs to fight a WBO champ with 4 loses but not the undisputed champ.

    More nonsense. Once again, you can't criticise someone for not going up two divisions to fight someone. Furthermore, there was no interest in a catchweight fight between Mayweather and Tszyu in 2001. There's a business side to the sport.

    You have failed to provide any plausible timeframes for when Tszyu and Mayweather could've fought. You even tried to say Floyd should've fought him when he was fighting 2 divisions below him(you have no problem with this yet you have a problem with Hatton going up 1 division to fight him). Once again, why is is ok for Floyd to fight Tszyu right after Hatton beats him, but not Zab years after Tszyu beats him?

    There's nothing to believe, it's the truth. I'm not like you, I don't go back and rewrite history. Baldo was the 4th option, and people were calling for him to fight Baldo.

    Please tell me you're smarter than this. This is in no way a contradiction. In one situation, Floyd turned down an alleged $8 mill offer and accepted a more lucritive offer. In the other situation, Floyd made an attempt to fight Hatton and the other guy asked for more money than was availible. Hatton knew damn well that no one was going to give him a guarenteed $13 million. Hell he only got a guarenteed $6 miilion in their December fight. If you really think this is a contradiction, than I suggest you look up the word in a dictionary.

    Spadafora was a joke. He was fighting nobodies always. In 2003 he got a gift decision (draw) agianst Leonard Dorin. Gatti beat the **** out of Dorin later. Meanwhile, Mayweather was fighting Jose Luis Castillo twice.

    Tsyzu was old and inactive; he had fought once in more than 2 years and was 36 years old. Anyways, Mayweather fought Tszyu's conqueror: Ricky Hatton.

    Margarito :rofl - Okay, Mayweather was offered 8 million and the WBO belt. He prefered more than 8 million and the WBC/Ring belt for fighting Baldomir, who actually had beat some contenders. And he beat an opponent who had actually accomplished more for more reward.

    The only fighter that Mayweather didn't face (and that didn't face Mayweather) is Joel Casamayor, at 130 in 2001 or 2002.

    Miguel Cotto is another story. I think Mayweather-Cotto will happen in the future.

    Hey stupid, Fraud called Winky out first . . only to shut his mouth like a scared little girl when Winky accepted the fake challenge.

    Fraud left money on the table to duck Margarito - had to pay Goosen a cut of the DLH purse. Would have been able to keep that money had he taken the one fight 8 mil offer Arum made.

    Shane was obviously defering to the DLH fight and said all alont that he would fight Fraud after the DLH match . .. but oh Shane schools Collazo - you know the guy that Hatton barely escaped from with a razor thin decision. Fraud sees this and says "yup, Hatton is my path of least resistance"

    When Fraud is asked about facing Cotto - he says he's sitting out all of 2008. . . then a rematch with DLH - a match no real boxing fan wants is made. :patsch

    WHat a two-bit ****.

    Wrong again, Fraud called out Winky first. . . this is common knowledge among hardcore fans

    Fraud told AM to his face that he would fight him, then pussed out and left money on the table to duck him.
