As a fan of the sport I almost feel robbed or violated by the guy for not at the very least just fighting twice a year.
As far as Martinez he's scheduled to meet Murray in Argentina although I doubt he will be ready by then as he has not even had surgery yet. I just don't see Floyd accepting a catch weight fight. Martinez is not a big middleweight and Floyd's ego is to big. Plus he might have to pass Leonard in a hallway one day.
Trout and Cotto are fighting for the regular wba title and Floyd owns the emeritus version giving him the right to challenge for the regular title so that could be in play here. That is, only if Cotto wins. I don't believe he will as much as I want him to. Floyd needs a fight before then though. I mean Cotto could be off for 8 months more should he beat Trout.
Slim pickings.
It is common knowledge that May is ducking Pacquiao, That should be the next fight
He should stop ducking Pacquiao to be honest, Even 50 Cent said he was tired from running from him. ESPN has showed that he is ducking and the one to blame.Quote:

If thats the same, tired old excuse you have then just say nothing.
pac ducked mosely after margacheato, ducked martinez when offered to fight at a catchweight, and just LOST his last fight..why would anyone duck this man.
Does mayweather need to rematch any of his opponents FOUR times?
Why is pac doing it with marquez?
Simple, because the majority of fans believe he lost three times AND its more money for BILLIONAIRE bob arum.
I dont think pac lost on three occasions, i believe it could have gone either way as pac was the aggressor in the previous outing.
The best counterpuncher in the game is floyd.
Faster than marquez.
More accurate than marquez,
More defensive than marquez.
Much smarter than marquez.
And you still want to see floyd fight pac? Complete mismatch.
If i was a pac fan i would pray he extends his contract in 2014 to 2020 so he can keep rematching marquez, hatton and perhaps REVERSE his LOSS to injured, broken ankle timothey bradley.
Sergio Martinez. That's pretty much it. I don't need to see Floyd fight Manny. It's tired. All the other players are at Top Rank.
Martinez is fighting an opponent-type fighter, supposedly an English guy called Murray, in Argentina in April. I don't think Golden Boy will let Canelo fight him next, if they do move Canelo up in class it'll probably be Cotto. I think Floyd might fight the Berto-Guerrero winner next.
First I cant believe some people still pine and lament over Manny/Floyd. I'm convinced that someone could start a thread about peanut butter and that long dead fight would come up.Quote:

Both did much better then Jr did. Floyd could ruin Oscars plan to wait until in his mind Cotto is ripe for the taking. Floyd will wait on the outcome also imo. I have a feeling Austin will spoil both their plans.
Martinez is a good fighter and i think a cotto fight would be a great match ..that sergio will win.
If Cotto beats Trout a Cotto rematch is another strong possibility for Floyd but it definitely won't be Martinez or Manny and I don't think they'll put Canelo in with him just yet. So it's the most credible Golden Boy/Haymon fighter or it's Cotto again.Quote:

Roger Mayweather says Floyd will be back soon, and he would whoop pacquiao and Bradley.
you say that and there has been a couple of fights along the way that you could apply that to but who is there for him to fight or that he hasnt fought who is or has been the person he has avoided for that reason (if you know what i mean)?Quote:

Pac got beat by tim bradley and if he gets beat by marquez..what then?
Floyd will not fight pac under bob arum..its not gonna happen.
There are other fights to be made so lets support those.
