Understand this... Floyd has created a tremondous buzz for his fight with Gatti next weekend. Imagine the people that will order the fight now simply because they saw that interview between him and Gatti last night.
Floyd is taking it back to the OLD SCHOOL when fighters used to talk shit to each other and have RIVALRIES. This modern day politically correct, I love my opponent, I'm not the best but I fight the best, I'll fight anybody my promoter tells me to, I never try for the knockout, pussified talk is part of the problem boxing is nearly DEAD on the mainstream level.
People want to see heated rivalries and real FIGHTS... When is the last time any of you anticipated the first round bell ringing like you are for next week?
Enjoy this shit because it won't happen too often again.
I dont know what pisses me off more the fact that PBF talks shit on Gatti's past for reason only known to him or the fact that PBF is not good at talking shit period. I mean he tries really too hard and on top of that to talk trash u have to be able to talk, PBF cant even articlate his words.
PBF is a boring trash talker just like he is a boring fighter and that is why nobody will like this guy and nobody will. He says the same old tired corny shit. "Thunder make noise, Lighting strikes.." shut up stupid. That was dumb the first time I heard it and now after the 145th and a half time my ears just want to bleed.
PBF ur not Ali, ur not Max Baer, hell butterbean talk better trash than u. so stop acting, ur talkin aint sellin the fight, the fact ur an asshole in real life is. People wanna see u hurt period. So shut up,
Ur-Done
Mayweather is one on favorite fighters so i find your statement to be completely false. Im guessing your hate will grow after saturday night.

I really dont care about this trash talk well I know I'll be watching it now cuz I want Gatti to KTFO Mayweather...
but trash talk does sell, but not where they take it way to fuckin far..(James Toney and Mayweather) but it's for the tickets so ya....
either way I hope they both get KTFO
People gotta remember.......BOXING is a sport!......Now dont get me wrong I definitley agree that when there is hatred between fighters its better competition and there is more emotion in the fight but saying the "I love my opponent" type fights are killing boxing then your just like the idiots that still buy a Tyson PPV. The mainstream boxing fans that hear about a guy that can knock some heads off or used to in Tysons case are whats wrong with boxing. There is a art to boxing, its not just talkin shit and knocking motherfuckers out.
I'm sorry but there's nothing like a trash talker that can BACK IT UP.
Floyd Mayweather, James Toney, T.O, Reggie Miller, Michael Jordan, Muhammed Ali, Roberto Duran, Bernard Hopkins, Barry Bonds, Randy Moss, Charles Barkley, etc...
its good to see some old school hate again, not very much hate is going around in boxing these days. Nothing gets me more pumped up for a fight when the both opponents have nothing but pure hate for eachother.
Actually what kills the sport is those fighters with boooooring tactics. The ones that hug a lot, or the ones that really run around the ring like Spinx, and those with limited skills that cant do anything about it like Mayorga.
You dont need to talk smack to sell PPV, you just gotta give people a great show.
I agree with that except for the Mayorga part. IDK if he sells tickets but I would definatly want to watch him fight. He has the style that makes it a fight and not a boxing match.
Nah, I'm telling you I'd be so bad that after the fight I would go up to the guy I just beat, give him a hug, and look at him dead in the eye with a serious face, and be like, "Now didn't I tell you I was gonna whup your ass? See you were warned...you fucked up, man. I told you I was gonna whup your ass."
I'll talk smack and shit but not in a way that i will look stupid, if you seen the way I been trashtalkin slipx, it's cuz i'm gonna whoop his ass!
ps. Slipx will not ever box again after I whoop him

See you were warned...you fucked up, man. I told you I was gonna whup your ass."
If I was a pro, I'd be the biggest shit talker in the world. People would watch just to see me get KTFO.
Why should I hug the testicles of a man who wants to beat my head in?
ABSOLUTELY! Why not trash talk? Why be modest? This is BOXING, not ballet...
Ali had quadruple the amount of fans that any other fighter has ever had...he was twice as popular than any other heavyweight for his ring ability, then his trash talk got not only his fans but his "enemies" to attend the fights and/or watch on TV, so in the end he had 4 times the popularity compared to other fighters

the "i love my opponent" stuff has nothing to do with how boxing is today. there are just as many trash talkers as there are passive talkers.
look at this generation's best rivalry: arturo gatti vs mickey ward. they dont hate each other, in fact ward is part of gatti's entourage. they didnt need to trash talk like mad to form their rivarly.
What Floyds doing comes nowhere close to the REAL hatred that Morales and Barrera have for each other. Thats a real rivalry.
exactly. That is real hate between the two, and it applies directly to their fanbases as well. (in many cases anyway).
