EXACTLY! It pisses me off when you hear PBF fans say what has so and so done to deserve a shot etc etc all that BS. Boxers fight each other to see who the best is,they fight the threats,the challengers etc. Look at alll these fights PBF has missed for one reason or another: Freitas/Casamayor/Tszyu/Spadafora etc et and then Cotto,Mosley,Margarito. If he is being honesy about retiring after the Oscar fight,he is missing out and ESPECIALLY as he thinks he is good enough to beat all these guys,I'd like to pick up the paydays and the enhanced legacy,wouldnt you?

Arum is just talking nonsense again,I mean when he had Floyd, was he not the one saying Floyd is the best boxer he has ever had etc etc. He's just doing his job I guess.
Ok people look at Floyd as the best and honestly when he was coming up he beat good names but now all he does it chase belts fight easy opponents to make him look better than he is. Mayweather fights dirty and make it look legit using his elbow to make people not wanna get close then he'll pop you with something nice. On March 13,1993 Oscar de la Hoya fought Floyds uncle Jeff Mayweather and knocked him out in the 4th. My point is that was 13 years ago when Oscar was at his prime now he's older with less talent and alot of heart and he fell into mayweathers game. All that Oscar has done he would have been better off fighting tito to avenge his loss. Its so many young hard hitting fast athletic people like floyd but they will never get a chance. For god sakes Oscar beat Ricardo for the belt that he holds now Mayorga is a slugger not a boxer he was destined to loss that fight. Who has Floyd fought with the same speed and moves as him? Nobody, because he's chasing belts and instead of trying to wipe out each division. And at this time in boxing its a new breed raising right in front of us. In the welterweight we have Andre Berto he has what it takes,Mosleys def has what it take, Paul Williams will make it but they will never get a chance at mayweather because he's gonna retire at 29?
