    When you see how good he really is then you should be in awe, not angry that he is ducking the best. The annoying thing is he'd still be favourite against any other WW out there. So just fight one of them already and cement the greatness you claim to have...
    You must have hated delahoya for the last few years, and mosley and hopkins for the last year.

    Who should Mayweather fight? Mosley? He tried to fight Mosley years ago when Shane was a lot less past it then he is now and Shane didn't want him. The only reason Shane wants him now is for the last big pay day.

    I don't see Cotto, Pacquiao, or Mosley calling out, Berto, or Paul Williams either, so why aren't you down on them? Why is Mayweather the only one who gets hate for not fighting these people? Mosley was gonna fight Clottey but then when the proposition of Mayweather comes up thats who he wants to fight because if he had a choice he would fight who brings him the most money, rather then fighting the up and coming young talent. Which is exactly what people hate on Floyd for doing, but any and everyone else seems exempt

    Really? I ignore the facts. I already responded to Kel on Mosley, You on thinking I was biased for Floyd and Conrad on Floyd's "cowardice"

    Don't try to say I'm not trying to debate you when I post a reply to counter yours and you don't reply to it. Just because my opinion isn't yours doesn't mean I ignore the facts, it means I have a different perspective and if you aren't even going to defend your perspective then don't say I'm the one who ignores something

    Majesty don't try to compare quality of Opp of DLH VS that of Mayweather....DLH though I find him annoying has the best resume in boxing over the last 25 years at minimum so using DLH as an example stating "You must have hated De La Hoya" for the opp he had choosen the last few years was crazy......

    Unless you are speaking of the Forbes and Pacquiao bouts only because they are the only 2 where DLH choose opp in a size difference

    You forgot to add Mayweather to your list

    So yes the last couple of years translates to the last 3 fights mentioned

    Geezus Daxx, Majesty was giving you an example of Delahoya cherry picking the past 4 years because you accused Mayweather, when Floyd was added to your list of DLH fighting smaller guys you then you respond like that.... Thats just weird man and the epitomy of redundancy

    Why is it that you refuse to accept anything bad aboput Floyd? You know what with the resume of Oscar he should be allowed 1 or 2 gimme guys...Oscar did not do it until the end of his career waaay past his best...

    DLH made himself a legend by fighting elite fighters in their primes wins lose or draw he went after them never looking for the easy way out.....

    When Floyd or any other fighter for that matter does what Oscar did during his career then use Oscar as an example but until then DLH can not be used as an example of a guy who has looked for easy bouts against smaller men...Thats why I responded the way I did and I am not a DLH fan

    As you can see oscar is not that much bigger than floyd and has only a 1 inch wingspan advantage. Now compare floyd to marquez.


    oscar delahoya: height------> 5'10" and a half
    reach------> 73 inches
    lowest weight fought as pro -----> 128 pounds amd 3/4


    floyd mayweather jr. height-------> 5'8"
    reach-------> 72 inches
    lowest weight fought as pro-------> 129 and a half


    juan manuel marquez height------> 5'7"
    reach-------> 67 inches
    lowest weigh fought as pro--------> 120lbs approx. as his first 7 fights weight is not listed.

    Dude, the only reason Floyd fights ANY fight is to get a big pay day, yet you criticize Shane for wanting his?

    So you're saying Clottey or Berto are tougher fights than Floyd? Regardless of the money, Shane wants to fight the best, which is Mayweather right? It really doesn't doesn't make sense for you to claim that floyd is the best (which he is) then criticize Shane for wanting to fight him rather than some "young lion."
