Comments Thread For: The Floyd Mayweather Jr. Circus is Back in Town

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

by Cliff Rold - After his turgid outing versus Randal Bailey in October, it seemed it was going to take a lot to make Welterweight titlist Devon Alexander interesting again.

It turns out all it took was for someone to say his name. The right someone did.

In boxing, when Floyd Mayweather talks, everyone listens. Or, to be more specific, when he tweets, everyone reads. The sound of keyboards clacking throughout the world of fistic writing has echoed loudly since. Headline abound as assumptions are questioned.

For weeks, the conventional thinking has been Mayweather will make his first start since a Jr. Middleweight title win last May and a jail stint last summer against Robert Guerrero. Still holding the WBC Welterweight belt, it makes sense for Mayweather. Guerrero is the interim titlist for the sanctioning body.

Tuesday night, Mayweather tweeted, “The negotiations for my fight are almost done. The front runner is IBF Champion Devon Alexander. It’d be a unification bout at welterweight.”

And away we go with the latest chapter of the Mayweather circus. Boxing has plenty of good fighters and a few great ones. There is only one Mayweather.

At 36, the undefeated five-division champion remains, even past his prime, one of the game’s finest practitioners. He remains, by far, its biggest magnet for attention and speculation; P.T. Barnum in gloves. Whether the reactions he generates are positive or negative isn’t really the point. [Click Here To Read More]

All I heard was, "Floyd payed us to write this."

Good summary. Alexander is just a stick, being used to stir the pot. It's Floyd-Ghost that's going to be served for dinner.

Can't believe his fans continue to support this clown.

Imagine being out smarted by Floyd Mayweather lol. End of the world type stuff.

Whoever believe he is going to fight Alexander need to slap themselves a few times.

if we was smart we would create a floyd gossip site and have when he fights they will pay you to post shit.

Site will be succesful cause all his flomos would follow take whatever they say as the truth.

As my buddy said today, Mayweather is doing this so people can beg for the Guerrero fight. Using a turd fight to make another turd fight look better.

Dude cries like there's a murderer's row at 147 for Floyd to choose from. SMH.

Make a fight at 154..you've got two bigger paydays in that division than alexander and guerrero..didn't he also say in the last attempt to negotiate with arum that he was done at 147? I can't keep up with the changes to the stories anymore.
