The Mayweather curse

is said poster not aware that anyone not included in the list of 45-0 has been ducked and would have beaten floyd?

:nut newbies...

 

out of active fighters at 147-154 i think Lara got the biggest chance of a upset, after that Matthysse

 

i probly fall asleep before the 5th.

tiger and c barkley probly walk out before the 8th.

this fight ain't happening.

 

What it boils down to is that Floyd is either going to fight Khan or Maidana next when there's about 20 better opponents he could be fighting. This is after a run of Ortiz, Cotto, Guerrero, and Canelo so it isn't like there's any real hope from a historical standpoint of Floyd facing a legitimate threat after chumping Khan or Maidana. Tells you all you need to know.

 

What are you talking about? Flawed logic. He's not even going to fight him!

Money Floyd is a brand. It is a result of marketing genius crafted by Haymon. Gain viewers by seeing him lose and others to continue to watch him preserve his wins.

Floyd is a lot smarter than his fans. Name all those who you think that could beat him that he did beat. Yes, but that is what you think. Floyd, being a smart and ring experience, knows who he can beat and will never fight someone knowing his 0 is at risk.

Floyd said it himself. He rather be called a rich coward and even added he will not sacrifice his health and family. He hasn't said anything similar to those that he fought and defeated.

 

you sure you would trade the willeamses, martinezes, margos, pacs to the baldomirs, guerreros, ortizes, gasnelos, and now possible khan?

tell me, have you seen any article, posts, threads, anything asking floyd to fight marquez instead of waiting for pac-hatton result? have you posted anything about it?

easy. carefully manufactured career.:hi:

pac round robin with marquez, morales, barrera, there isnt much you can ask for a lower weights.

round robin with cotto, clottey, margo on different weight classes. same guys floyd avoided with the pretense he wanted the dela hoya fight. showed pac's willingness to take on all comers.

floyd. only manufactured career.

 

Thats complete and utter bull****.. All Floyd had to do was not 'retire' & take so many extended breaks between fights & he could have easily fought Pac, Margarito, Williams etc as well as those he's already fought.
You have apoint about Cotto at 140 as he did want to fight Cotto, but at no point did he want anything to do with Kostya Tszyu, in face he actually fought not 1 but 2 eliminators for a shot at Gatti for the WBC belt instead.

 

****** created the curse for himself. anything to avoid the tough fights.

everytime i think about floyd and his choice of oppostion, i kinda missed dela hoya badly.

gone is the golden (boy) era.

we are now in the gay era.

 

Of course you miss the point. With people like you any fighter he didn't fight at the time you think he should've fought was a fight he would have lost.

 

Programer you ara sack of **** buddy.... and a Hater.. so keep hating and keep being a piece of **** :deal

 

*****s as usual no answer.

they will suck up another **** fight like a khan fight:hi:

 

He was probably always going to take vacations and extended breaks, and would have fought the same number of opponents. My post wasn't addressing the details; like retiring, allowing his body to heal, promoter issues, chasing a belt for whatever reason. I'm addressing, rather, the broad strokes of this flawed logic by progamer.

So lets assume that instead of Hatton, Hoya, it was Williams, and Margarito. Even if YOU think that would have been better opposition, others would have said the opposite. A paradox. A catch-22.

This post really isn't about defending Mayweather, even if that happens as consequence. My point is that it's stupid to assume that any fighter that he didn't face is a fighter he would have lost against.

Of course he is a business, and there are fights I would have loved to see made, but the assumption that any fight that didn't happen is fight he would have lost is just...
