I'm not saying Wlad is a better fighter than Floyd but he gives the fans the fights they want to see....and he'd have a unification fight if Don King wasn't around.
Floyd has NEVER....ever ever ever ever in any weight class he's been in....... unified the titles. This means yes he has held titles but never ALL the titles which in turn means there are other legitimate champions he has not fought in .......EVERY WEIGHT CLASS HE'S EVER FOUGHT IN
What was that you were saying about "who else should Floyd have fought"???
There are so many titles out there it's damn near impossible to unify. And what's the point? Titles are pretty much useless now. Floyd won his 130 title from the best title holder at the time. Genaro Hernandez. He also beat his biggest threat in Diego Corrales. At 135 he beat the fighter in the division. Jose Luis Castillo. He didn't do much at 140. But that's cuz Hatton and Cotto wouldn't fight him. Vivian Harris was set to get his shot. But he got his ass knocked out. At 147 he beat the recognized champion in Baldomir. And probably the division's most talented fighter in Judah. Now he's set to face De La Hoya. Yet people still knock him. Floyd takes chances. The first Castillo fight was close. So he rematched him and beat him more convincently. I didn't see Wlad go after Corrie Sanders and try to avenge his loss.

What do you mean hatton wouldn't fight him? He unified so Mayweather would fight him. Mayweather moves up to Welter so Hatton follows him. What more can he do other than openly say 'i wanna fight floyd mayweather' for the last 2 years. Hatton says he'l fight him wherever. I've actually seen video footage of Mayweather saying he won't fight Hatton in the UK. How can you be pound for pound number 1 when you have everything on your own terms.
Guys like Pac and Winky deserve to be above Floyd...and at least hatton took a fight in which he was severe underdog (tszyu)
And Castillo definately won the 1st fight. Mayweather won the rematch.
Re: Floyd Mayweather, Jr. Trashes Ricky Hatton
Floyd doesnt understand that he will never get recordbreaking ppv numbers because he is not likeble. Oscar, Hopkins, Trinidad, SRL, SRR, Hagler even Tyson never had to trash every other opponent in the division and outside of it to be sucessful. And for this reason i hope the history books arent kind to him. He doesnt deserve it.
