    It's not that I dont believe you.

    He offered Mosley a fight but wanted 20m against him straight out of retirement. It was shot down.

    Im expecting him to go after Pacquaio (I think he expects Pacquaio to win)

    yep, i agree. hatton at 140 is right at home and any fight at 147 with the elite might not be a good idea. floyd is very wrong if he's taking jmm as a tuneup, but i hope he keeps thinking that. win or lose, jmm would give him or anyone a hell of fight cuz he's pretty much hellbent at getting that 3rd fight with the pacman

    floyd isn't a master at risk analysis...

    he's a master at handpicking safe opponents while ducking, dodging and flat out avoiding by any means necessary (sham retirement) young strong hungry fighters who can brutally knock him out,

    yup...I'm hoping PBF mans up and goes for a legit WW. Maybe the blown up lightweight who stopped Margarito?

    Imagine this yr:

    Cotto-PAC

    Mosley-PBF

    Torres-Hatton

    Williams-Sturm

    Pavlik-Abraham

    ...maybe a lil reality with more of a bong dream

    I'm imagining PBF by stoppage vs the much smaller but living legend two and three divisions below Floyd Jr.'s weight class.

    Arum wants money. He'd make a lot with that match up. More than any other match up he could make.

    arums been known to pull some "karma" type of **** though, and we all know he holds grudges........so who knows

    plus, if cotto and manny win, that'll be a huge fight within itself anyways, and way easier to make

    If the fight is going to be at 135 or 140 then JMM will not be a tune up. IF the fight is above 140 then I say JMM is nothing. He'll become a fat tune up boxer for Gayweather.

    Cotto can't make 140 and Pac said he won't fight above 140 again.
