    wrong, AM was in the middle of training for a straight ahead brawler type. He would have had to stop, do a complete 180 turn and have limited time to train for a completely different style. . . this is BS.

    Arum offered Fraud a 1 fight deal, no futures - he is on record at ESPN and another site. Not even Fraud tried to make this excuse. You are simply wrong on this point.

    AM offered a more than fair offer on FULL NOTICE. No games. Fraud ducked plain and simple.

    Floyd can make any fight he wishes. i'm tired, SICK AND TIRED oh his double talk BS excuses why he cant fight so and so:-(

    Had floyd wanted it? They may well have. Tszyu vs Mayweather would have been a HUGE EVENT as tszyu was a UNIFIED and respected Champ.

    Its all par for the BS, they got 99 different reasons for this, for that, but when motivated they make the ****ing fight?:think :think :think

    Floyd was not a big name before he fought Gatti. He was known but he wasn't as big as he was now.


    Zoo-Floyd at that time would of have done about 400k tops in buys. Showtime-HBO would never joint broadcast on that.


    They only did it for two of the biggest HW stars which pulled in over a million buys and everyone wanted to see it.

    I hope that Mayweather starts fighting some of the other belt holders at 147 soon. If he unifies the belts, then maybe we can say he is a victim of his era.
