RabbitPunchBoxing.com just learned from a member of the Mayweather camp that Acelino Freitas just turned down $2 million dollars to move up to 140 lbs. and fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. on November 12. Freitas gave the excuse that he is trying to fight the winner of the IBF Lightweight title fight between Levander Johnson and Jesus Chavez on September 17th. If Freitas can't get the winner then he will try to fight WBA Lightweight champion Juan Diaz later this year possibly in November or December.
understood nothing. Did you see the fight. I cant remember how long it exactly went but the only one who was dominating was Freitas. He won like the 1st 8 rounds easily and then ran out of gas and got Dropped 3 times but dont play yourself like Chico killed him because he didnt, and this is coming from a guy who is not a Freitas fan and thought he was so overrated but I came away very dissapointed in Chico.
This is the fight I always bring up when people say Chico can beat Floyd now or if he doesnt then it would be much closer then last time. I say "if he made Freitas look like Sweet Pea, then how will he do any better against Floyd then last time".
Dont hate just for the sake of it and stop trying to turn a blind eye. I still think Freitas is overrated and I made a thread before the Chico-Castillo fight saying how I think that Chico will KO Castillo and then KO Tszyu but Im not so much of a homer where I dont open my eyes. Freitas was killing Chico but he ran out of gas because he is not a natural boxer and he couldnt move like that for 12 rounds
Won the first eight rounds? - thats BS of the highest order.
and then chico knocked him out. not one lucky shot either.
three knockouts, spead out over three rounds. doesnt seem like freitas could have been dominating too badly
what would you prefer??? that chico knocked him down four times?? he would have, had freitas not quit.
you say freitas was "dominating" then ran outta gas and got his ass knocked down then quit??
he wasnt killing chico, dont be foolish. chico knocked his ass out, and thats the bottom line. stop whining about the way he won it. he won, and hes better
How old are you dude because you talk like a younging. You act like a guy cant be dominating a fight and then get KO. It happeneds alot in boxing and it happened in this one too. Before those knockdowns which were late in the fight, Chico had lost just about every round on everyone's score cards and it wasnt by love taps. Frietas was landing some great combos and big shots that were snapping Chicos head back

malignaggi does have some fast ass hands and quick feet- but im betting he cant take a punch- no real basis he just comes off as a cunt- but if he does progress up it would at least give pbf someone who has some speed
i think hatons mandatory is urando- not sure
freitas has no heart as we saw when she threw in her panties against corrales- why wouldnt she come with and excuse not 2 fight pbf- id like 2 see hatton floyd as well
hope malignaggi climbs up within a year or so and challenges floyd - im no floyd fan but would lovve 2 see him school that prick
I love Malignaggi but I guess Im the only one. I think this kid is much better then everyone thinks and I think he could be better then all these guys. He reminds me so much of Sweet Pea
freitas has no heart as we saw when she threw in her panties against corrales- why wouldnt she come with and excuse not 2 fight pbf- id like 2 see hatton floyd as well

Dude dont kid yourself. Im a huge Mayweather fan and I also love Chico and I picked him to win against Freitas by KO but I was heavily dissapointed in that fight. He made Freitas look like Sweet Pea. For you to say that Freitas has no chance against Chico is a joke. He dominated Chico the whole fight but then he ran out of gas. If he can maintain his stanima then he could beat Chico
he got knocked down three times. what else do u want chico to do? seriously, chico did what he had to, dont feed me this "dissapointed" bullshit, chico knocked his ass out and thats all there is to it.
do you think freitas would take a rematch?? because i sure as hell dont
Why would Mayweather want to fight Freitas but not Cotto? Cotto's a little too green huh? I think as of late Mayweather's handlers have been doing a pretty good job at picking his opponents... with the exception of Gatti whom wanted to fight Floyd. I hope Mayweather-Hatton happens with in a year, i don't like floyd, but i just wish the best would fight the fucken best.
I agree with Borikua. Floyd should fight Hatton. It really sucks, because making a fight with hatton is going to be alot tougher than making a fight with Tszyu. Everyone is going to want things their way.
You know me and you have had our battles and Floy is my man but I thought the same as you when I heard this. Everyone is calling Freitas a wuss but Floyd is a punk if he wanted this fight. This fight sucks. Why would he want Freitas.
The only thing I can think of is he is waiting for the Hatton fight and he doesnt want to move up in the meantime. There are guys he can fight but he wants to be on PPV and Freitas has a big enough name to do that so this I can understand but it still sucks in my opinion and Floyd should just fight Margarito or something
I was thinking the exact same thing at first, then I started thinking that maybe this was just his managers and his team trying to get him a fight with a bi enough name for the time being. Mainly I have a hard time believing that Floyd wants this fight, cause while you are right that Freitas has a big enough name to warrant a ppv, this would be a total no win situation for Floyd and would serve more as a step backwards for his career.
Why do you always say this? You act like Floyd is avoiding him. He tried to fight Hatton in his 1st fight at 140 but Hatton turned him down. Then every interview you read from that Hatton camp says they want the fight but not yet. They want atleast one more fight before then so why do you always talk like Floyd is ducking him? You dont think Floyd would jump at that fight?
Just because I haven't read the stuff, could you link it?
I doubt that Floyd is really ducking anyone. Sure, he did take the easy guy out, but then again, who else was there except Harris, and Tsyzu? Tsyzu was taken by Hatton, and Harris, well, we saw him lose to Maussa the same night Floyd dismantled Gatti, so... I don't see why anyone would get on him for that.
Floyd will beat Hatton when they fight, and they will fight.
who cares about his "big" lead. chico kicked the shit out of him, knocked him down three times, and then freitas quit. theres no point in trying to say that freitas can beat corrales becuase he got his ass handed to him last time. your fighting a losing battle there

Freitas? The fight that needs to happen is Floyd-Hatton, Hatton is the king of 140 not Floyd.
