    Many would say Margarito, Manny pacman and Vivian Harris just to name a few.
    Martinez aside he wouldn't fight or get near any of those smaller guys I mentioned either

    Actually no one in their right mind would say Marg because the only time Floyd coulda fought him was late 2006 (If you didn't know) and Baldomir was the much better fight (Lineal champ and more tested). People who know boxing would NEVER say Margarito, but I'll give you another try because I understand that it was just a bandwagon kinda answer.

    Pac actually refused him every time

    From Blood tests to stadiums to cuts to Arum to talk to my promoter to economy problem to Floyd's incarceration to 40 million

    Floyd allowed Manny to the 14 day no testing and Pac still refused. Come on!

    Vivian Harris- Jesus Christ! Who has Vivian Harris fought? Maussa gave him a beating of a lifetime, embarassed him. Gatti was the MUCH better fight in terms of resume ALONE

    Imagine Floyd being stupid like Pacquiao and run face first into a right hand counter. Not going to happen.

    Thurman is dudu. Once he fights a decent fighter who will make him miss all night, Thurman will tire from loading on every punch and probably get KOd.

    Vivian as bad as it sounds was chasing him around like haye was to wladimir at the time and if you think Margarito wasn't a better fight then I'm gonna stop responding now

    You have absolutely no points at all. Vivian was claiming duckage with absolutely no base. Gatti was the much better fight... and the only reason that ever happened was cuz Tsuyu/Hatton said no to every one of Floyd's offers. Baldomir was also much higher ranked, had better wins. Margo came off a win from Cintron ffs.

    Baldomir had wins over Gatti/Zab. Margarito had a win over Cintron

    Baldomir was a lineal champ, Margo was nothing at the time.

    Baldomir was the right path to take.

    You CAN try again with actual points this time.

    Maussa SHAT on Harris after.

    :rofl

    Like I said, claiming duckage with no base

    Margo had a win over Cintron

    Vivian had a win over NO ONE. After he claimed that Floyd was ducking him, he goes on to get **** on by Moussa. Like, real rofl.

    :rofl

    Floyd went to fight the lineal champion in Baldo then went for Oscar. I would have done the same thing. For money and for legacy. Margarito was a nobody, same with Vivian.

    Baldo was the much more tested and much more accomplished in late 2006.

    No, but it's going to be very diffcult to beat him. You can probbly count on one hand histotoricy who can beat him. Robinson, Ray Leonard, Hearns. I don't see anyone beating him from 130-140. This includes Benny Leonard.

    Much better ranked? Don't know about that I know they was both in the top 5 and the money was the same and all the fans wanted that fight not baldimor so why not fight him unless your a coward?

    Robinson/Hearns/Ray I'll agree with

    Your 130-140 comment. I'll agree to it with maybe some exceptions

    Pryor @ 140 could have done a number to him (Could have)
    135 Duran was an absolute beast and it would have been a war
    130 Arguello was also a beast

    Baldomir was 1. Enough said.

    The money was also not the same, you're being fooled by Ring Magazine/Bob. Did you forget Margarito was unwilling to pursue Mayweather himself (He was actually unwilling to give up his WBO belt). :good

    Floyd took on the bigger challenge at the time. The Unified Welterweight Champion.

    Something that would have led him to bigger and better things. Which it did.

    Do a poll I don't think anyone would agree that baldimor was the bigger challenge at the time. And the money difference was 1 dollar
