yes and no....yes in the aspect that he is setting up the ultimate payday against ODLH and no in the fact that PBF has taken too much time between fights...he had an opportunity to really solidify himself after the Gatti destruction but he has been idle far too long.....people are forgetting him.....he is losing out big time!!!!
What do you mean? He's beaten Sharmba Mitchell and Zab Judah since then, he's just as active as any other world champion out there and continues to fight big name fighters.

People are now giving Baldomir loads of credit saying he would beat Hatton, whilst completely ignoring the fact that Mayweather has faced the same two opponents as Baldomir, Gatti and Judah and won more decisively in both instances.

Hatton has only fought Maussa and Collazo. Collazo was supposed to be an easy fight, it just went wrong for Ricky. Margarito has only fought Michael Gomez this year.

The fact is Mayweather is judged by an entirely different standard to other fighters out there. If Ricky Hatton or Maragrito signed to fight Zab Judah or Carlos Baldomir they would be considered huge fights and everyone would get excited. If Mayweather signs to fight them he's taking the easy option and being a coward.

Double standards.
