Floyd Dropping More Bombs: Destroys Oscar De La Fishnets (Rousey on Ring Cover)

PBP10y ago

"Well, you know, congratulations, but you know the sport is starting to look bad when a female fighter from a whole other sport is on the cover of a boxing book," stated retired undefeated former pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather, who shared his thoughts on UFC women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey being featured on the cover of the latest edition of Ring Magazine. The move drew harsh criticism from diehard boxing fans and some members of the media, especially considering that Rousey's next opponent is decorated former three-division boxing world champion Holly Holm. In fact, you'd have to go as far back as 1978 to find the first and only time a female boxer, Cathy "Cat" Davis, was featured on the cover of the magazine. According to Mayweather, the fact that Rousey is on the cover is simply proof that things aren't going quite as well as they may seem for Golden Boy Promotions founder Oscar De La Hoya, who acquired the magazine nearly 8 years ago. "You gotta realize this, we all know Oscar De La Hoya owns the Ring Magazine. That shows you; he has no fighters but Canelo. Basically, it's like he's trying to steal her from Dana White. Richard Shaefer, he built Golden Boy from the ground up, helped them make tons and tons of money, and what did this guy do? This is real talk, how can Canelo or any fighter hold their head up high and say, 'You know what? I'm proud for Oscar, a guy that dressed in drag and been on coke.' I mean, the world knows this. How can you hold your head up high and say, 'You know what? I'm proud for this person to be my promoter'," Mayweather explained during a recent conversation with FightHype.com. "A guy that's going to promote me as a fighter, I want them to care about my well-being when it's all said and done. The promoter should be able to make money, but when it's all said and done, the talent should win, and not just having their hand raised after the fight. Financially, the fighter should win." http://www.fighthype.com/mayweathernews/mayweather_rousey_ring_cover_bad.html

Oscar De La Hoya was accused of rape and "settled" out of court. But of course we'll ignore that................ I think Floyd is allowed to judge a man with that type of history who keeps trying to take shots at him.

I've always thought Floyd would focus on reorganizing TMT after leaving the sport and play big in the promotion business. Seems he'd rather spend his money on expensive cars and strip clubs.

So when is TMT going to be a big player in the promoting business? Right now GBP >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> TMT. He says nice things about Schaefer yet he doesn't seem to have any plans of hiring the guy so that TMT >>> GBP. Remember when every flo mo talked and dreamed about TMT becoming huge in the business? What happened? :unitedsta

Ortiz-wbc champ Guerreo-mando Both were top contenders GGG got his balls washed massaged on nsb for fighting Mario freaking lemule, lmao. Not a fan of GGG, I agree lemieuxs crap But so were ortiz and Guerrero Either way ppl care way too much about how much a boxers makes and his life outside of boxing I only care about what they do in the ring

ODLH may have fought all comers, but he looked bad in most of his biggest fights. A shot Whitaker was making prime ODLH miss and look foolish at times.

No he is not, his opinion doesn't mean s***. He is a retired boxer , who seems to have to have his name in the media. This guy has no business judging others. Are you kidding? So others can judge him and talk a bunch of **** and the second he fires back you and Oscar get your panties in a bunch? Man da **** up please. He can say what he wants. Retired or not, everyone can't seem to keep his name out their mouths.

I agree that Rousey or anyone else from MMA should not be on the cover of a Boxing magazine but at the Same time has Floyd ever heard the saying "When you live in a glass house, you shouldn't throw stones" Guy has quite the checkered past himself. Last I checked Oscar never did time for beating a woman... Thank you. Coming from a chicken **** coward like Floyd. You piece of trash , who are you to judge people . ? Really . This guy is the epitome of a spoiled, pampered brat. Can't stand that anyone else gets attention. I know he realizes that 85 % of the public hate his *** . Yet he doesn't care, he got rich off everyone tuning in to see him lose. He never did, but we all know there are alot of questions about this fool that need to be answered too. "I am cleaning up the Sport" ! Give me a dam* break.

They can't even answer a simple question. When is TBE going to hire the banker to run TMT? What is he waiting for? I repeat, Schaefer didn't build GBP from the ground up. That's garbage. He left GBP in financial mess. Schaefer was nothing without Hoya's name. Absolutely nothing. Hoya built it and employed Schaefer. You're not thinking smart if you think Hoya is as dumb as TBE when it comes to building a promotional company. Man this Hoya was the same guy who tried to steal Pacman from Arum. GTFO of that Schaefer built GBP nonsense. :unitedsta

Floyd must have forgot that Oscar was promoting him for a while. Seems like Oscar is the one who forgot,he says Floyd has not fought anyone and was apart of the worst era of boxing..basically shi1tting on his own fighters just to discredit Mayweather

So when is TBE going to hire Schaefer full time so TMT would become a serious player in the sport? TBE and his fans keep claiming Schaefer built GBP from the ground up, which is crap. So what is TBE waiting for? Didn't he promised he is going to hire Schaefer? Can anyone around him ask about when he is going to get the banker to run TMT? :unitedsta :twak: Show some sense please.
