    at this stage he just needs to fight SOMEONE in is weight class who is a threat. once he does that the true fans will acknowledge it

    why would he have to CHASE them...he has offered both cotto and mosely fights...he does not have to fight the CLOTTEY's of the world like cotto or the Margo's like mosely because he is UNDEFEATED and the fights will come to him....he has beat the #1 guy at every weight class he has been in cept 140...now he will conquer the ww's ...anyone on here would take the same fights as he has ....and he has dominated EVERY one of them:deal

    :good

    He constantly gives those responses. Look at the Brian Kenny interview, it's exactly the same. He needs to take on the winner of saturday's bout in a make or break fight if he wants to silence those questioning his ability. If he takes any other route then he is still going to have people doubt him.

    hatton now was NOT A THREAT??? he beat collazo and won a title at 147...JMM was #2 p4p ODH was coming off a KO over mayorga...u know the guy who gave mosely all he could handle til the final bell....there is NO threat to him at 147 but he will beat on one of the 3 alleged threats soon enough

    i still haven't gotten a chance to check this thing out.

    seriously though, it's unlikely that Floyd will really finish his career without fighting some of the top guys. plain and simple, it would be a bad
    business decision.

    all this skepticism and assuming that floyd is scared of these guys is just going to help those fights sell when they come.

    It's quite simple. FLoyd said LEGACY DOESN'T MATTER B/C SKILLS PAY THE BILLS!!! Floyd is not interested in becoming the Goat. He only wants to make money. Honestly, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. The problem that many people have is that you can't go around saying you're the greatest of all time w/o proving it at every weight class.

    I respect everything RA said....Floyd needs to fight the top guys...After this weeks fight he will have an opponent...I truly believe he will fight the winner of this weekends fight..

    But if Pac wins than we both know he wont get credit for fighting Pac cuz Pac is "small" and all that...
