Does this hurt GBP's làwsuit as it is proof that Haymon doesn't block any fights from happening?
I think it destroys GBP's lawsuit, and is the exact reason Haymon let it go through.
Was actually looking for the pic, I'm curious. Do you have link? Thanks.

Floyd won't fight Pac
Floyd might try to evade Khan...
we'll see...
"My next opponent is a young undefeated strong hungry champion in D.Garcia! who beat Amir Khan!"
But he did beat Khan. Don't get your point??
WTF are you smoking? :bigeyes:
Have you ever seen Thurman fight? He's exactly the fighter to give Floyd problems in there, and he damn sure, without a doubt beats the breaks off of Broner.
And unlike MANY of Floyd's opponents, he can throw punches while moving.
Dude is as high risk/low reward as it gets.
Never seen a post so full of wrong before.
:duh:
Bradley's own trainer doesn't sound too confident about his fighter's chances. And there's also a video of Bradley saying that he wouldn't know how to fight Floyd.
There it is.
its crazy to me people just think Floyd would Win 12-0
That's cause he would. Floyd is a master at controlling distance. A guy with T-Rex arms wouldn't stand a chance.
Floyd would have problems with his head and lateral movements and wouldn't be as accurate as he tends to be, but when it comes to winning rounds, he would beat Bradley with ease. If Bradley chooses to box, he would get counter and has no advantage whatsoever other than being faster on his feet and a better athlete than Floyd at this stage.
Absolutely not...I like Bradley, but I've never seen such a clumsy fighter in my life. To call him a better athlete is insane.
I think Mayweather has slowed down. This is gonna be a tough fight for him and I think either (a) they know it - hence catchweight, or (2) they're in for a bit of an awakening.
What's gonna happen if CANELO catches Mayweather like Mosley did? Mayweather is odds on to win but I give Saul a good shot. It'll be competitive, I think that.
Is this a joke? That was beautiful work on the heavy bag. Have you seen Canelo's workout? The bias is incredible.
If Pac really makes $25m a fight, then Floyd offering him $40m is a 60% raise.
What if Floyd asked for a 60% raise on his salary too...that's $64m.
Sounds fair to me.
Of course, this is considering Floyd fronted the cost for the promotion like he does now. If Top Rank promotes the fight, Floyd should shave off the 10m it normally cost him to set up a fight and send it Pac's way. $54m with no overhead cost for Mayweather. Pac banks $50m b4 Arum takes his piece.
Really bro? You can't connect the dots?
Cotto is getting his biggest payday because he's FIGHTING Mayweather.
Gamboa isn't fighting Mayweather. Mayweather has no quality fighters under his "banner." Mayweather Promotions is nothing but a way for him to shield his profits under a corporation name. He uses Golden Boy for everything, and Gamboa will be fighting GBP promotions.
Again, Mayweather can't offer Gamboa nothing except the opportunity to fight Golden Boy fighters, in co-collaborations w/ Golden Boy.
I have a feeling all Al Haymon fighters will one day fall under Mayweather Promotions. Mayweather will be the face, like DLH, and Haymon will be the brains like Schaefer.
2012
Pac weighs in @ 147
Marquez weighs in @ 143
Floyd weighs in @ 146
Marquez weighs in @ 142
But Floyd had this mystical advantage that Pac didn't? AMAZING
Same reason why May v Pacquiao will do better than May v DLH....the greater the public perception that Floyd COULD lose, the greater the PPV#s. In the end, the constant is Mayweather.
Not talking about choosing cotto/margarito over oscar.
Floyd could have beaten oscar in 2007 and in 2008 his biggest fights were margarito and undefeated cotto and both would have done monster ppv numbers.
But floyd went into "retirement" and came back after cotto, margarito beat the hell out of each other.
Dude just pretend these top rank fighters don't exist, cause whether we're talking "prime" (whatever that means) Cotto or Jessie Vargas, it doesn't matter. Floyd isn't dealing with Arum and Arum isn't dealing with Floyd. Deal with it. All this duck talk is crazy.
Whats idk mean? Whats undefeated got to do with anything? Lets not mention that Floyd lost to Castillo, that doesnt need to be bought up, but there are lots of undefeated fighters. Bradleys is undefeated on paper as well, so, what has that got to do with anything.
If you fight people who arent great, and cherry pick while doing so, you can look great all night long like Floyd does.
Is it so hard to understand why someone would pick Floyd as the fantasy fight GOAT, when regardless of competition (I think his resume is vastly underrated), that person has only seen Floyd struggle for specific rounds...and never an entire fight? Castillo I is irrelevant to me considering Floyd fought him to a draw (my opinion) with one arm. It's really hard to imagine that guy losing.
But its a bit of of a reach to say youd put money on FLoyd really, because there is nearly no basis for having such faith in a man who has cherry picked nearly his whole career.
Floyd hasnt beaten any greats in their primes, so to put your money on Floyd is a bit wishful thinking really. Id bet Floyd senior would put his money on SRL to beat Floyd. Hes fought SRL afterall.
Disagree with everything you said except for the Floyd Sr comment. That's only because Sr is 2x as arrogant as his son and would never admit that his son is a more skilled fighter than himself.
No, Marquez ko was epic. The triangle theories are only just that theories. Marquez ko'ed a fighter that could be outboxed but not ko'ed until Marquez that is. Its the knockout of the decade
Wasn't he stopped twice before in his career?
Hatton-collazo
Pac-De la Hoya
Trout-Cotto
Mosley-Margarito
Is this a joke? Now I see why Mayweather gets so much flack for supposedly cherrypicking. People here don't even know the meaning of the word.
His next opponent will probably be Khan.
If I was Canelo I would fight in September without Floyd and headline my own show because Floyd needs him more than Canelo needs him.
Floyd will never be able to sell out a 40K stadium like Canelo.
Incredible. SMH
I think he might at this point. Circumstances are different.
Not to Mayweather. Don't kid yourself into thinking anyone will bully him into paying a guy who has never headlined a PPV a large sum of money. Cotto is a future HOF and the third biggest draw in boxing. The comparison just isn't there.
Can we be rational for one sec.
How does 40k (some seats at $10) give you leverage over 900+k (at $69.95) or 1.25 mil (at $59.95)? floyd's live gate with 15k was as much as canelo's with 40k.
Canelo will get more than cotto. Ifctiltes $10 mil (plus ppv) seems about right.
Canelo will get more than Cotto? LOL...delusion at its finest.
Canelo will get exactly what Victor Ortiz got.
Poor Paulie....he'll be forced to compliment Broner this Sat.
First she was weekend pu$$y....now it was possible that she may have been carrying his child. I smell BS.
Ms. Jessica is hurting Paulie's feelings.
Can someone tell me why Canelo couldn't execute the Cotto gameplan in better fashion? If he does th. , couldn't he theoretically win 5-6 rounds by using the same strategy? I'd like to here someone convince me that Canelo couldn't execute the same same plan and be more effective.
Even Cotto wouldn't be able to execute the Cotto gameplan if Floyd decides to get off the ropes like he did against Guerrero.
