I want to hear some feedback |

When you post, it says "your comment is awaiting moderation", and I didn't believe my comment would be posted because of the nature of it.

It's up now though, don't know for how long.

Here it is in case it gets removed:

Dear Floyd,

Why didn’t you ever fight Miguel Cotto, Antonio Margarito, Manny Pacquiao, Paul Williams, Andre Berto, Joshua Clottey, Cory Spinks, the late Vernon Forrest, Kostya Tszyu, Joel Casamayor, Paul Spadafora, or Stevie Johnston?


When you were 130 lb champ, Prince Naseem Hamed was 126 lb champ, yet no fight with Prince Naseem, Marco Antonio Barrera, nor Erik Morales.


Why wait till Shane Mosley was almost 40 years old and completely shot before fighting him? Why call up an old career featherweight like Marquez 17 lbs to fight?
Muhammad Ali talked the talk but he walked the walk and fought EVERYBODY! Sugar Ray Robinson destroyed plenty of Hall-of-Famers, but where are your Hall-of-Famers? Undefeated means nothing if you don’t fight the best competition. Not much risk and not much legacy either if you never fight the best prime guys.


sincerely,


the bradguy

That comment over there is not intended to be disrespectful, but I think many fight-fans wonder about these questions. I see that comment as the voice of the unsilent majority.

It's not like I can just go get on a airliner to go discuss it with him personally, is it, I'm in a different country. I didn't write it in a disrespectful manner.

They're all relevant questions if a man publicly declares that he's better than Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Robinson, yet creates so many obstacles to avoid a 5'6" Filipino.

Good post surprised that it made the list after moderation..

Lets see if mine does

Why all of a sudden after your so called retirement did you come back and seek a fight with Juan Manuel Marquez? Are we to believe that he was the best opponent for you? He was undersized, he had only 1 or 2 fights as a lightweight before you decided to bait him into a fight over 140lbs. It is clear you used that fight to gauge Manny Pacquaio since JMM has been his biggest challenge over the last 5 years. Paul Williams, Cotto, even Bert were available and would have signed ASAP yet you did not choose to fight the best while claiming to be the best. You made ZERO defenses of your WW title outside Hatton.. Who stupidly called you out....How do you call yourself the best when you havent beaten a prime opponent since JL Castillo or maybe even Corrales.
For all your talent in the ring and fact that you would more then likely beat all the names mentioned and whoever else out there but Pacquiao is one you navoid? You claim it is because you want to be on an even playing field but when you jump up divisions or dominate opponets it is because you are great but if another fighter does it they must be doing PEDS or something similar. Is there a valid reason Floyd or are you just trying to convince yourself?
