Mayweather Sr: "They talking about December..."

winky wright is a stay busy fight?:wtf1: y wouldn't it be? its a good fight I think and winky wright is a known boxing name and not some journeyman...I remember right after floyd thrashed gatti, him n winky fighting were kinda in talks... I'm sure winky would wanna weight drain for a big money fight...and I don't think winky has an opponent yet... Winky's size advantage would sorta balance things out

"Horus", that makes a lot of sense, good post. I thought Shane was already fighting someone in January??? How could he fight Floyd too? It's true...It would be very rational for him not to take another 5-8 month lay-off after he was just off for 2 years.... furthermore it is very apparant that he has a good base in the uk...So why not build on that base and take a stay busy fight in the UK...? It is very rational. Plus it could be on for free on HBO or he can try to get it on showtime or network tv..... Like I said before,if Amir Khan fights are on P.P.V in the UK.. Floyd Mayweather should make it his mission to get his fights on P.P.V in the UK.... And the best way to do that, is to start fighting in the UK. and what better way to start fighting in the UK than with a stay busy fight. I wouldnt mind seeing Floyd fight again in december...would you? And I am pretty sure his UK fans would love to see him fight there even if it is a Stay busy fight....

floyd already got his tune up!!!! how many tune ups does he get!!! I mean COME ON!!!! I am not talking about a megafight which must be in vegas in order to make the most money. I am taking about a stay busy fight in which he can showcase his skills, get some work in, and sharpen his arsenol for his next MEGA MATCH !! The guy just came off a 2 year layoff....a stay busy fight would be good fight him...Taking another long layoff would not be a good moved for Mayweather if he is trying to get his skills sharpeR AND SINCE HE IS ALITTLE BIT OLDER. like I said before Juilo Ceasar Chavez use to take stay busy fights all the time he used to fight every month fighting fighters with only 3 career pro fights when he has already fought 60+ fights... Thats why I said he could do the fight in the UK..Build up his base more over there and after that fight HE CAN put his fight with Pacquaio or Cotto on P.P.V in the UK RATHER THAN JUST HAVE IT ON SKY SPORTS... if Amir Khan fights are on P.P.V in the UK.. Floyd Mayweather should make it his mission to get his fights on P.P.V in the UK.... And the best way to do that, is to start fighting in the UK. and what better way to start fighting in the UK than with a stay busy fight. :boxing:

He Should Fight Collazo, Slick Southpaw, Not too much punching power, Decent Name, not a joke and a Actual Welter weight Besides Collazo was competitive with Shane Mosley, I mean Shane Clearly won but still Collazo is good and beat Berto in my opinion. it would be easy to make the fight too.

Not possible. HBO has no money left in their budget for any major fights. They are already working on 2010 fights. Wat does it cost them to do PPV? I dont think pbf will do regular HBO until he loses.

I doubt he fights before March. It'll obviously a big fight and it needs time to put together. I'd be shocked if he fought in December.

Why is it that Floyd is the only fighter that cant take stay busy fights? he cant always fight in big events floyd already got his tune up!!!! how many tune ups does he get!!! I mean COME ON!!!!

mosley called out floyd in front of an international audiene of 1+ million PPVers...

Why is it that Floyd is the only fighter that cant take stay busy fights? he cant always fight in big events

there should be only one name on HBO's list of opponents for pbf if he fights in dec... SUGAR SHANE MOSLEY!!!!

there should be only one name on HBO's list of opponents for pbf if he fights in dec... SUGAR SHANE MOSLEY!!!!

he can fight Winky Wright at 154... thats if winky can still make the weight, of course floyd's win will also be tainted again due to fighting a weight drained/past his prime winky... although the size difference should balance things out? winky wright is a stay busy fight?:wtf1:

anyone else think they already have a fight setup between winner of cotto-Manny? since he's ducking mosley, and looks he's trying to "stay busy", waiting for antoher fight, the only fight that remains is either manny or cotto. Either way, floyd is waiting for a Bob Arum fighter. they must be in negotiations already. Even though floyd said he wouldnt deal with him again, it looks like theyre planning on it.

If Floyd wants to fight in December, HBO would kick out all the current dates they have and make another HBO PPV of a Floyd stay busy fight and sell 1Million PPVs in December. You are so right..... But If I was him, I would try and get this stay busy fight on Network TV...

The only fights right now that make sense for Floyd are, Shane or Pac vs Cotto winner. . Mega Fights wise.... Yeah Maybe. But a stay busy fight doesnt require a big name.

You really think Floyd would even fight more than 3 times a year Henry? Floyd is going to wait for November to see what's good with Cotto and Pac and will fight in 2010. There isn't enough time to build a fight for Floyd in December when HBO's putting pretty much the rest of their budget into Cotto vs Pac. ..and Floyd not fight in Vegas where the $$$ is at??? LOL naaahhhhh...Wembley Stadium in all truthfulness is a pipe dream. I am not talking about a megafight which must be in vegas in order to make the most money. I am taking about a stay busy fight in which he can showcase his skills, get some work in, and sharpen his arsenol for his next MEGA MATCH !!

WHAT? Juilo Ceasar Chavez use to take stay busy fights all the time he used to fight every month fighting fighters with only 3 career pro fights when he has already fought 60+ fights... So those whose who would hate on him taking stay busy fights...Dont know boxing You really think Floyd would even fight more than 3 times a year Henry? Floyd is going to wait for November to see what's good with Cotto and Pac and will fight in 2010.

when asked when Floyd Jr's next fight should be, Sr said, "They talking about December, but I don't know. I would like him to stay busy." Full interview at f i g h t h y p e .com If he fights on regular hbo in december to stay busy against a legitimate welterweight like collazo or berto or somethin it should ease the greedy bad guy image

Floyds wants the fight in march or early in abril. He always takes six moths off while making his opponnets have three. Thats was one of the reason he's changed his fight with Marquez. It only changed after he knew when pacquiao was fighting Cotto in november.
