I was a huge floyd fan, i thought the guy was amazing, but recentl he's been taking the **** - he wont fight anyone and keeps making excuses. I heard the interview with rugged man, he makes excuses for everyone he is supposed to fight, shane - steds, pac - best steds come from the Philippines and then this stupid argument that he is a crowd drawer and that they dont draw crowds. serious - i think the guy is about to lose some serious fans. If he does something stupid in his next fight like fight hatton again then its shows he has no warrior in him and he's just using his position to make money. Thats fair enough but he should come out and say - im goin gto fight guys weaker than me so i can get paid, im not a bad man, im not a gangsta i just want to make money Thoughts?
He did come of as a bit of a coward and a tool in that RA interview. I'm not really a Floyd fan. I love his skills and don't even mind his fighting style, i just don't care much for his attitude and his opponent choices since leaving 135, however, i am willing to keep quiet and reserve judgment on him until he announces his next opponent. He could be waiting to see who wins between Pac-Cotto before announcing who he will fight next, which is a wise move. Might as well wait to see what all your opinions are before making a choice. If he fights the winner or mosley or williams then all will be good but if he fights some one else or even the loser of Pac-Cotto then it will prove everything RA and countless other fans have been saying about him all along.
The only guys that still believes in him are those that have intimate love relationship with him. The only women that still believes in him are those in love with his money. The interview with the rugged man said it all, and exposed him, but his fans are putting blindfolds and earmuffs on. Lucky you your earmuffs were defective, you heard the truth.
I believe he is waiting also but these are what I expect to see. If Pac Loses, he'll agree to fight Pac and will avoid Cotto. If Pac wins, he will say he wants 65% of the purse and of course that wouldn't happen. So who is there left to fight Floyd? he doesn't wanna fight Mosely, or Paul WIlliams. He'll probably look for the weakest champion in the middleweight if Pac wins.
If his next opponent is not Mosley, or the winner of Pac/Cotto, his career is officially a farce and I could care less what he does.
And how do youn know Floyd will fight the Cotto/pac winner? Floyd never said that and his most recent comments and his past indicate that he is not willing to face the winner of Cotto/Pac
I was never a huge fan so none of his chicken antics are surprising at all. What is surprising is that it has taken so long for some people to see through the BS.
Why discredit Sugar for losing to Vernon (RIP) and Winky? Two great fighters that Floyd would never get in the ring with.
I dont think Floyd has the courage to match his skills. His obsession with money money money leaves me cold. He's a solid gold *****. Especially with his "Floyd Mayweather Foundation" handing out bags of candy to kids - whoop de do Floyd. Or giving soup to homeless people - but makes damn sure everyone hears about it. Why dont you go there with $50,000 and throw hundred dollar bills at them instead? like you do on stage.
Floyd is following the exact footsteps of Roy Jones. I hope he soon looks bad or get KOed by an inferior fighter. Only then he will start to improve the level of his opposition (only he will lose to them).
the guy who gave Pacquiao all he could handle wasn't fighting that night, because he moved up two weight divisions to face Floyd, and yet Floyd didnt have the professional courtesy to come in at the weight he originally agreed to make. by the way p4p doesnt mean a guy can move up 2-3 weight classes and still be as effective as he was in the lower weight, there's a reason for weight classes. How many people would like to see Vitali Klitschko vs the p4p #2 guy in the world. atsch
He will face the Pac-Cotto winner. That's all there really is to it. He's "not fighting" because the Pac-Cotto fight, oddly enough, has not been fought yet.
