Floyd's dad wants him to box and bore us more. If he had his way he would fight another 5 Guerrero's and finish. Forget legacy and real challenges, it is all about being safe and making the money.Quote:

Canelo won't go to 147. Floyd won't fight at 154. The fight won't happen. It'll be another fight we miss out on involving Floyd. How many does that make in recent years? 5?
Name the 5 that have all been mayweathers fault.Quote:

2. Cotto (bob never wanted floyd to fight him)
3. Mosely (before or after toothache-shane wanted no part of prime floyd)
4. Manny.
5. Manny.
Please add more..
If floyd is known for ducking all these fighters and a chicken in the ring, how is he able to be the face of boxing, highest paid athlete ever and the best £4£ boxer on earth...he must be doing something right.
I didn't say ducked. I said missed. Big difference. There is an argument why the fights didn't happen. There is no argument that they didn't happen. Missing fights affects legacy.Quote:

No doubt he still would have been great but the numbers probably would be different. To be honest
I think Floyd is a bit boring to watch. He either doesn't want to or doesn't need to take any chances.
It is getting to the point that he should have an asterisk next to his name in the history book.
That's a statement that belongs in the noughties. Floyd couldn't make 140 with a stomach bug.Quote:

Probably they end up agreeing on 149. A weight Alvarez can juat about make but one he's got a built-in excuse to lose at.Quote:
