    Kahn is young, Kahn is fast, Kahn is big

    Floyd is closer to retirement than the amateurs

    So is Khan. Forced retirement.

    LOK, if Floyd was fighting Nonito Donaire next, how would you sell that fight?

    Only Angel Garcia could sell a Mayweather-Khan fight and that's the chuth.

    And chuth is the chuth.

    Roy isn’t lying….Floyd was strategical on who and when he fought.

    Could Paul William or Khan beat Floyd….probably not but they had better shot than the Guerrero, Ortiz, Berto of the world…

    To deflect criticism about his resume Floyd is claiming that Sugar Ray Leonard ducked Aaron Pryor. He's so thin skinned.

    At least leonard Pryor would have been an interesting fight between two elites

    Well Floyd retired in 2007 after DLH/Hatton...when the only guys that people wanted him to fight were Cotto, Paul Williams, and Antonio Margarito. ROY JONES is right he ducked Williams & Margarito(imo) and fought Cotto at a time when it was more beneficial to him...

    Exactly. You can also add Thurman to the list, though this was later and not as blatant

    Top rank had no interest in feeding cotto to him when both were at 140 and unbeaten

    Margarito is the only guy an actual offer was on the table he refused. Instead he made the same amount to face pedomir and ended up buying his way out of top rank

    Mayweather also probably bottled it from fighting Winky Wright.

    Wright agreed to all of Mayweather's terms (purse, weigh in, etc). Mayweather then instructed Arum to alter the previously agreed to purse split. After Wright's promoter refused, Arum and Mayweather abandoned negotiations.

    It's also known known that Mayweather instructed certain people to prevent Margarita's name being put forward as a potential opponent for him.

    Wright would have give him a good drubbing

    Leonard also offered Pryor a career high payday, then fought Hearns & Kalule later that year.

    Exactly. They couldn't make the fight but it's not like Leonard went after softer targets.

    Like everyone else has mentioned he managed to avoid several difficult fights that would have really pushed him. He was very good at making fights when the time was more favorable for him.

    I put zero stock in him avoiding cotto before his losses

    At his press event out here for the gatti fight he screamed across the restaurant that top rank was scared to put cotto in with him. Arum and cottos gay lover duboeff both just looked disgusted and stayed silent

    Margarito has a case but then Mayweather jr whipped the guy who beat him down. These are the facts
