Mayweather could be a pussy

I don't know about you guys but I think its time that mayweather steps up to his championship titles and fights someone that is hungry and capable of giving him a fight. Margarito from mexico has already challenged him numerous times and now that the fight is set for July of 2006 he doesn't want to fight.

It's not that he doesn't want it, before he fought Judah the offer to fight Margarito payed Mayweather dollars he made in the 90's. margarito is not a draw for HBO so they won't fork over the money. After deafeting Judah and HBO saw the ppv results, I think now the time is right to fork over the money to have mayweather face margarito. I agree, if Mayweather doesn't take the fight, he's a puss......

exactly what he does, where money is, that's were mayweather goes. Kind of whack, but can you blame him?

I'm gonna go with your wrong Mayweather is not a pussy. He's the best P4P boxer out there. And he's proved this by cleaning up a couple divisions, and continuing to move up in weight to fight the best fighters in division.

Mayweather is getting close to the end of his career, he only started making a million plus pre fight in the last couple years and it took him a good 8-9 year to reach that point.

So now Mayweather can either fight Margarito and make 3 million.......or he can wait and see if the Gloden Boy wins his fight and then try to set up a fight with Oscar that will pay him between 8-10 million. A fight were he will have to move up in weight again and fight a big name that alot of people will pay to see.

True....but the thing is Hatton isn't really a big draw in the states yet. I also don't see Mayweather traveling over an ocean to fight someone in thier own back yard, unlessss they can throw 10 mill at him and I don't think they can do that over there.

I see that fight not giving more than 5 mill for Mayweather and 3 for Hatton

Oscar/Mayweather would break down to 15 Mill to Oscar and 10 mill to PBF

Of course those are just my guesstimates and it relys on Oscar winning on Sat. But HAtton could be PBF next opponent after Oscar.
