    Arum offered 8 mil plus free agency for "easy work" - Fraud ducked.

    Why in the hell would he offer a Cotto fight to a coward who said in so many words on HBO that he wanted nothing to do with him?

    Youre a sad excuse for a boxing fan.

    Dude what exactly is your purpose for posting here if not to rehash this a million times?

    Your making me a Floyd fan and I can't stand the man.

    Funny how you fail to mention that PBF offered Hatton a fight at 140 back in 2005 when both were at 140 but was turned down twice just because it suits your bull**** agenda.:deal PBF wanted Cotto because there was no one else left to fight at 140 so why not fight a hot upcoming boxer like miguel at 140? PBF is damned if he does and damned if he doesn't

    Always thought you were a good poster reg, just though (maybe mistakenly) that you were tough on Shane yesterday but as I said I may have just read you wrong- wouldn't be the first time.

    Anyways, glad your posting here and I would like to get back to doing the same, just find myself reacting more and more these days to stuff on here.

    Maybe, but I see this point in every thread though. Seems excessive, no?

    Arum also offered the fight for an August 12th fight. Floyd was injured at the time Arum offered it. Amazing how Arum the one time he's offered Floyd a fight happens to offer Floyd the fight while he is injured.

    Arum also refused to allow Floyd to even think of fighting DLH. I mean **** he would only pay Mayweather 6 million to fight Cotto who you deem as his biggest threat ever. 6 million? :lol::lol:


    So it's Floyds fault that Arum has never even thought to offer him a fight? Lol You're the sad excuse for a boxing fan, always hating on Floyd. Amazing you've probably never been inside a ring yet you call him a coward.

    Hatton left his comfort zone of UK to set up the match.

    At the time (after beating Zoo) the most money for the match was in England, no way Fraud was willing to go to UK at that point. Gotta give props for crossing the pond.

    If Cotto was "worthy" back when he was green at 140, certainly he is "worthy" after beating Shane at 147.

    Floyd wasen't a top PPV sell at the time he offered to fight Cotto. Now that he's on top he sees Cottos markey value hasn't increased like Floyds has.


    Amazing how you excuse Ricky for staying in the UK for the most money, yet critize Floyd for taking the big money fights. :rofl

    Exactly how I feel. Floyd rightfully used the Delahoya and Hatton fights to advance his name and now he is the premier star attraction in boxing. Floyd, on his own, is capable of doing over 1 million ppvs. A fight with Cotto would do huge numbers. Hardcore boxing fans and casual boxing fans will want to see this.

    If Cotto beats Margarito, this fight must be made. No more excuses will be tolerated from either camps.

    Your right he didn't avoid Floyd himself. His daddy avoided Floyd for him.
