It would boost his resume, simple. He doesn't have the balls to put his 0 on the line in a potential 50/50 fight, and is clearly only motivated by money. This is the reason he never could have been the greatest, he hasn't dared to.
He was not the 147 pound champion because he ducked cotto, margarito, clottey, mosley, williams, and bereto!
I used to think you knew what you were talking about but your starting to make me wonder that now. We had this discussion about boxers having "balls" ... and I owned you in that right ... Now all fights are 50/50 no matter if you're the odds on favorite before the fight. Its two people and anything can happen ... history has proved that so don't come around talking about this 50/50 non-sense ... its always like that -- Floyd put his undefeated record on the line 39 times ... and ran the risk of losing 39 times and he's put his undefeated record on the line against 2 other undefeated champions ... Hatton and Corrales ... so don't act like Cotto is to be the most feared fighter w/ an undefeated record. :huh
what do you mean? He fought the linear champion in Baldomir and beat him ... if those guys were the top dawgs then one of them other than Baldomir wouldve held the strap ... and outside of Mosley and Cotto which one of those guys you named can headline a venue by themselves?
You never owned me, infact you had problems with reading comprehension. He doesn't lack balls in the sense he's scared of a guy, he lacks them in the sense he won't take anything he considers a major risk because he's scared of losing his precious 0. Fights are NOT all 50/50. Otherwise I wouldn't have a decent record in the prediction league, logically I'd be evens. ****ing dumbass I'm not acting like Cotto is anything, except what he is. A real welterweight that is undefeated, and a very solid resume now. A young strong guy. Nobody could deny Floyd his props, and it would boost him no end. Unfortunately it never looks like he'll get that W, and along with numerous other names we look back on and wonder "what if" it counts against Mayweather in ATG rankings.
Who wouldnt fight DLH then ? Hes was top 3 p4p in the world and brought with him a gigantic payday and that fight did alot more for Mosleys legacy then beating a very young Mayweather wouldve done. He didnt opt to fight Cotto dumbass he was calling out the "retired" Mayweather and Floyds saying I dont fight sparring partners so he takes on Ricky Hatton leaving Shane with no other choice to fight Cotto. Floyd has always been afraid of Mosley,Margarito and Cotto now even DLH.
I don't know how you define having "balls" in Iceland but most people would interpet it the same way I would. I owned you ... all fights are 50/50 nothing is guaranteed ... yeah you have odds on betting but no someone has to win and someone has to lose and if you take 100% ... then you factor in the two pugilist and divide that 100% by 2 - then you have 50 right ... its simple mathmatics ... You're an official Floyd Mayweather hater and one reason why Cotto and Mayweather will not happen.
**** you chump ... The truth is ... he waiting till FLoyd was on top to call him out and then never accepted a fight ... if you watched the Collazo v Mosley fight you would see that Mosley missed out on his chance to fight Floyd Mayweather and now that he's at the tail end of his career - he's looking for another big payday.
Oh yes look at all those Great fighters on there.... HA! The only grea one is DLH. The rest are just good. And Gatti come on you cant really consider him a good win for PBF. PBF does need Cotto and its just a matter of how the ATG always would seek out the tough challenges and Cotto definately is as is Mosley. Just look at the way PBF ended his career. He fought an aging DLH and had a very close fight and then fought a fighter that showed he was very one dimensional and way too small. Before that i believe it was Baldomir which if the fans leave before its even over tells you what kind of fight that was. Then Judah. Who is just a nutcase and had come off a loss. Yea he definately ended with a bang!
