Floyd ducked Hatton after Ricky beat Tszyu

Cotto was at the Bruseles fight, Bruseles was Miguel's sparring partner...mandatory my a**.

Point is Floyd had 1 title which he won from Gatti, Hatton had what people consider "THE title" and Cotto had a title. Floyd could unify or he could move up to fight someone who just got beat by some bum!

Floyd moved up to fight Zab Judah the rest is history.


When was the last time PBF beat someone no one thought he would beat? When was the last time he was "challenged" in a fight?

ricky said he didnt want floyd till 2007, at the earliest (the mayweather camp has tried to make that happen)

bruseles was a mandatory

as far as judah, they had the date locked in and the fight was a done deal at the thomas and mack BEFORE judah fought baldomir (its not floyds fault that judah got beat)

and as far as not being tested by opponents, thats more of a statement about how good floyd is

think about it, before his fights people always say the other guy has a good shot(power, heart, chin) like they did with gatti, a lot of people thought judah would get it done
then after the fight its always "blah, blah, always fighting bums" keep in mind that the people who spout that garbage are the ones who always think the other guy is gonna win before they fight

dont worry about cintron either, it aint happening (more boxrec trash)
