Take that unification Bullshit and kneel on it so you can reach your boys giggleberries better. Do you even bother to prrof read the shiit you write?

    Floyd has earned his spot and is now basking in the sunlight of his glory and opportunity to call the shots, sorry that dosent fit into your little dream world.You can discredit him all you want but he is the #1 PFP fighter in the world regardless of your Ether induced posts and dumb confederate redneck Ramblings 

    Dont you have some right wing liberal political conspiracy BS to litter the Lets get it on board
    Not a cool post man

    Lyle's points ARE valid, so the abusive posts are just uncalled for
    1st of all I was in the middle of retraction and a tone down, me and Lyle kinda harmlessly feud and always have in a non grudging way

    But No problem, I'll start going to sensitivity training

    Alright man, who isint Floyd fighting? !st of all your going off half-cocked on something you dont even know if the source is true or correct so we a purely speculating.

    Who are these so called " all-comers" I'm pretty sure when this fight was announced anyone who was woth a damn had a fight lined up. So now we are downing Mayweather for fighting Hatton

    But I'm curious to hear about these all comers, and then I want you to tell me what these "all comers have done with there careers up to this point that make them better standidng than Mayweather?
    Hatton is a good fight for him and Ricky and Floyd both deserve to find out who the best is...it's a good fight with a deserving challenger

    Cotto, Williams, Mosley, and Margarito all have valid points for Mayweather to fight them.

    Floyd Mayweather Jr. has fought some fights that just make you scratch your head....SHARMBA MITCHELL?!?!


    I never said Floyd wasn't a good fighter but he has chosen to fight some sorry ass fights and it's the truth

    first off "titofan" u love th ricans so provide a link or dont post S***...

    2, think what you want of floyd but right now he is in one tought F****** fight, cotto, de la hoya 2 or anyone else is the LAST thing on his mind..

    Floyd does what floyd needs to do in the ring end of. if he don't make ur dick stand up so what? this guy will fight anyone, he went up to a weight he was weak at and done the job on a legend, to try and even think he is is ducking cotto, well you deserve a slap.
    Yeah, you're right Robby. I "love the ricans", basically because i AM one. Secondly, you're right again. I left out the source, which of course was BoxingScene. But someone else already pointed that out. My bad. Thirdly, you're right yet again. Floyd does NOT make my dick stand up. Apparently, he does yours. And as for whether he's ducking Cotto, I guess we'll just have to see, if and when he gets past Hatton.

    Cotto is the best Welterweight not the best pound for pound but the best welterweight. Look who Floyd has beat at the welter then look what Cotto has done at the weight he has accomplished more and if Floyd does not want to fight him then that means he is afraid well see in good time.

    I never said Floyd wasn't a good fighter but he has chosen to fight some sorry ass fights and it's the truth
    That was his first fight at 147 for fucks sake..Ever heard of a tune up fight or a fight to get adjusted to the weight? Everybody wants to talk shit about his recent opposition who havn't even been all that bad but nobody wants to mention his accomplishments throughout his WHOLE career! He has been fighting valid world champions since the age of 21 since his 18th pro fight when most fighters like Hatton, Margarito and even Cotto were still fighting the bum of the month at that stage in their careers!! The difference is Mayweather was fighting these guys who were in their prime while he was still green and inexperienced and still making them look silly!! He's pound for pound because throughout his whole career nobody has done what he has done all you people bitching about how he's ducked this person and that person need to compare another boxers entire career with Floyds..Floyd will always come out on top.

    As for Cotto he will fight him..I have no doubt and people are saying that he fancies it less after Mosely Cotto? I say the oppositte..If Mosely can run Cotto close then imagine what Mayweather will do..It's a no brainer. Another victory for PBF

    ....if you are as good as Floyd you don't need tune ups!

    Yet again I will mention he has never unified nor tried to unify the titles in any weight class ever so that means at least 3 fighters PER DIVISION were not fought by Floyd....I didn't say he ducked them but they had just as much credibility as title holders as Floyd and therefore Floyd is 1/3rd as great as he thinks he is.

    I'm tired of excuses Floyd needs to step up and fight the best and with Hatton he's taking a step in the right direction

    I dont know when you guys will get it thru your head...It dosent matter what you think about Floyds PFP standing. He is the best in the world and recognized by every respected sanctioning and ranking body as such.

    So you can Beetch all you want but it aint gonna change a damn thing, so continue to try and taint his legacy and accompolishments all you want, again dosent change much.

    Pretty ignorant statement, Floyd moves up 7 lbs and fights Mitchell who was considered a threat still and not 100% written off. Floyd makes him look the fool and all of a sudden he was an 20W-15L type fighter

    If Floyd is moving up in weight and thats what he wants to do while pushing his natural abilities and spread them over weight classes cause thats what he wanted to achieve with his career, isint a slight on him. Sorry its not. Thats your standard Lyle and if you dont see the value in a fighter fighting over 24lbs his natural weight and retaining his skills attributes and abilities while still operating at the highest level well then thats your short sightedness

    There are no excuses Lyle just plain ignorant people hating and over scrutinizing, many will tell you Floyd has had a virtuoso career


    At the end of the day I wont knock Floyd for not hanging around and unifying, you same people bitch that these alphabets dont mean a thing, but since Floyd didnt collect them all he is knocked typical well wisen up there and look at my Signature line and see all those belts. ENOUGH SAID!!!!!!!!!!!

    Also fighters have real short careers in comparison to life, if Floyd wanted to accompolish certain feats and move up the latter being mindful of the hour glass which is his age in life, than good for him if he did. Now he can settle down in Welter and finish an already Hall of Fame stellar career.

    Gamo snicker all you want and piggy back on all the Floyd hate, even though you disclaim everypost about Floyd saying your a fan of his BUT!!!! Floyd is a no doubt abouter 1st ballot Hall Of Fame lock. Cotto and Margarito aint there yet.

    Calm down JT Rock. Stop getting so aggravated over nothing,drama queen I am a fan of his talents,I've said that on numerous occasions.However,I'm not a fan of his attitude and I think he could have a far far better resume.I don't see what Cotto and Margarito have to do with this(going off topic as per usual)

    Anyone who knows me well here knows I respect Mayweather and his talents. I always say his defence is GOAT.Just because I don't agree with blind nuthugging akin to yours or dont' proclaim Floyd to be as great as you do,doesn't make me biased,

    Arturo Gatti - really a B class fighter who got famous from his show of heart and got a shot at Floyd due to his ability to fill arenas

    Sharmba Mitchell - He's known for giving Kostya Tszyu all he could handle......FOUR YEARS before this fight happened. More recently KT smacked him down in 3 rounds a year before he got the fight with Floyd

    Zab Judah - was supposed to beat Carlos Baldomir to get the fight, lost and still got to fight Floyd anyways. That fight made no sense after he lost to Baldomir.

    Carlos Baldomir - he got to fight Floyd simply for beating Zab and getting a fan base behind him due to his fight vs Zab.

    Oscar De la Hoya - full time promoter, part time fighter, he still draws a big crowd but he's older and doesn't have the heart for boxing anymore but Floyd apparently wanted to fight him as opposed to fighting someone IN THEIR PRIME!!!

    Go down his career, he's never unified, he's never fought the toughest champion to win a belt, and he's hardly ever fought guys in their prime WHEN HE HAS HAD AMPLE OPPORTUNITY!




    Is he clucking yet?
    Good Morning Mrs Klitschko

    So you wanna talk Comp, please junior go back to sucking on Wlads hind tit, and let reality continue on. Who has come close to walking in Floyds shoes and has done what he has accompolished. Take that unification Bullshit and kneel on it so you can reach your boys giggleberries better. Do you even bother to prrof read the shiit you write?

    Dont you have some right wing liberal political conspiracy BS to litter the Lets get it on board
    Nobody can't deny that Floyd boxing #1 P4P, but everything Lyle said is absolutely true, except maybe the clucking part. I don't think even Lyle denies that Floyd is #1 P4P, but it's naive to think Floyd hasn't carefully handpicked his oponents since moving up. That's doesn't mean that he couldn't have cleaned up a division, but he hasn't been willing to take the risk. He's been declaring himself a GOAT since before he really earned it. He has not always fought the best fighters available. Nobody can argue with Floyd's resume and accomplishments at 135 and below, but since moving up with the big-boys, he's had, shall we say nicely, a very well managed career and handpicked fights.

    And I don't think he's a natural 130lb fighters. He was 20 when he turned pro and his body was still filling out naturally. His "true" weight class is probably 140, and 147 is pretty close to where he belongs, and sure he fought Oscar at 154, but is Oscar a "true" JMW? That fight was basically a natural prime jr welterweight against and past prime WW. It was as much a true JWM fight at Vargas Mayorga was a SMW fight.

    One of the reasons why this fight with Hatton is so great is that's it's first prime-v-prime fight he's had in a while, against an undefeated fighter with a great resume, against a guy who is a natural sized opponent for him. One of the problems I have with Floyd is that he just might be a GOAT, but he refuses to prove it in the ring against all comers. He plays games, tries to maximize every nickle on every fight, and he's only 30. I can take that crap from an old boxer, but this guy is only 30 and he should be fighting more and against better opposition. He robbed us of 3 years of his prime. As a fan, you should be pissed off at him. Since 2002, he's had 2 meaningful fights - Judah and ODLH. Hatton will make #3, and in reality, this is his most meaningful fight since Castillo in Dec. 2002.
