Floyd fans have to really have a bromance with Floyd in a male-on-male ***ual way...

Pacquiao fights catch weights: he's draining his oppnents
Floyd fights catch weights: opponent's manager is ****** for accepting the catch weight

Pacquiao fights Rios and Algieri: Pac is fighting bums, a disgrace
Mayweather fights Ortiz, Guerrero and now wants to fight Berto/Mayfield: he's earned the right

Floyd definitely has a big fan base called bi-***ual African-Americans and bi-***ual men who have a thing for "ethnic men" Those are the ones who buy his fights

Nice try, but Ortiz was champion at 147. Rios and Algieri, even up til now, have never been champs at 147. And before Pacquiao fought them, they both had never had a fight at 147. Ortiz and Guerrero both had proven themselves at 147 at least. Guerrero also won the interim belt to become the mandatory and then beat Berto. Rios and Algieri, even up til now, have not accomplished what Ortiz and Berto did at 147.

Please try again.

Berto is finished. Same as Malignaggi. Doesn't matter who Floyd Runweather fights. Idiots will pay to see it. He won't get a dime from me. I like fights not dancing and running.

I wouldn't be surprised if he fought either one, but Floyd might be trying to help out Al Haymon. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if with the numbers they pull with Thurman and Broner if Floyd didn't fight on PBC when it aired on CBS. It would be free, but Floyd knows no one is paying him $32 million if his next fight is on PPV. No one is buying these guys on PPV... on PBC... Floyd's last fight...

You'd get a ****load of money from sponsors that's for sure, tons of exposure to the brand and build boxing quite a bit really. If there are some good undercards it'd be fantastic really. I don't know if Floyd does it but given the names he is throwing out there. But this is Floyd we're talking about, he probably thinks he was responsible for 4.3 of the 4.4 million he did with Manny; he'd never do this.

He can fight them surely. Didnt know however in boxing, that there was a point in time you "earned the right" to fight bums. I will NEVER stand by such logic.

Im with this. Fighters in general, when they no longer want to compete against top level guys should just retire instead of taking up space. Goes for Cotto and Khan especially. "Fans" have this logic that neither should ever have face anybody legit bcuz of what theyve already done. Cotto shouldnt have to face the #2 MW in GGG bcuz he "hasnt fought nobody" regardless that hes the mando. Cotto shouldnt have to face Canelo "bcuz hes the A-side". Khan shouldnt have to face Thurman, Brook, Porter or any welter period, bcuz of what he did 4 yrs ago pre-danny.

Repay the fans from the Pac showing, thats what that comment was applied to. I don't see how people find some acceptance to let him do whatever he wants. Fine let him but hes not getting a dime from me.

He did't even fight Canelo at 154, fought him at 152, Canelo last 3 fights have been above 154. That win is tainted.

Who said that Cotto would beat Floyd? I always thought he has the style to trouble him which he did at times, but even Floyd said (before Cotto was touted as a possible opponent) hes not the same fighter post Margo. I remember a lot of people saying it was cherry pick at the time.

Mosley - Pretty much eveyone was saying Mosley would either k.o him early or Floyd would win a easy UD...

Manny - 5 years too late, ended up fighting a posted K.o'd Manny who turned out was only about 65%. Floyd should have battered him.

From what is available and realistic (excludes GGG) only Khan or Brook is acceptable

Khan acceptable, why??? So if were going by what a fighter has done in the PAST rather than their CURRENT standing, as the criteria to land a Floyd fight then DelaHoya is a far better option than Amir Con.

[wlliam]

Floyd is definitely lowering the expectations so when he ultimately faces Khan the media who sucks Floyd off every chance it gets because he makes fools out of them and intimidates them will say "Floyd could have taken an easy opponent and retired but instead he's facing a serious threat in Khan who has the speed to beat Floyd"

The Algieri fight will be downplayed like it never happened as well...

Obviously Floyd isn't going to fight Berto or Mayfield but the fact that his worshipers condone that kind of fight just shows what d1ck suckers they are :*******:

Whatever happened to "Floyd doesnt like southpaws doe"??

You babble on about Floyd more than any *****...get off his dk already

[wlliam]

Pacquaio fought Algeri so why can't Floyd get a gimme....after 18 years on top and hard fight after hard fight...he's earned it.

Berto and Mayfield are complete garbage but so is Algeri compared to Floyd and Manny.

Pac fought Algieri so why cant Floyd get a gimme?? Bcuz hes the best fighter in the world thats why. And he shouldnt be held to the same standard as everybody else. Even his biggest haters hold him to a higher standard.

Khan just contradicted himself He hasnt fought for stakes since Garcia. Look at his opposition since, thats his level.

[gamefrk]

If Floyd has decided to fight one of Berto/Mayfield I hope it isn't Berto. Berto was looking bad getting tagged crazy by Josesito Lopez till he KO'd him. At the same time I hope that Mayfield is better than Berto, atleast he hasn't been in as many wars like Berto has been..Mayfield should be the fresher guy I guess.
