    Haye is fighting the top HW out there and a giant, it's not him

    Floyd wanted to fight Kosta Tyzu and asked to fight him multiple times, but they were with different networks. If you want to say somebody is ducking anybody then it would be Zoo. I never heard him express interest in fighting Floyd
    Floyd didn't duck Maragrito

    Floyd wanted Cotto at 140, but Cotto's people said he was too green
    Floyd also wanted to Casamayor and I don't know why you would blame Floyd for the fight not happening. Who do you blame of ducking Aaron Pryor or Sugar Ray Leonard
    Just because two fighters never fought eavhother don't mean any one of them are ducking

    Actually Pac is the biggest cherry picker in the sport. Just look at and listen to Roach's interviews before every single friggin fight. He doesn't deny it at all. He actually lists the reasons why he chose each and every opponent.

    Example:

    They turned down Mosley because he was "too good" and not a big enough draw. Then Floyd went on and dominated Mosley and crushed Pacs fight with Clottey and Cotto in buys.

    Hmmm so who's the cherry picker???

    THIS POLL IS SO STUPID. floyd mayweather is far from a cherry picker. name 10 fighters today with a better resume. calzaghe is the biggest fraud that ever stepped into the ring. it's not even a debate.
