Explain to me how their the best. Is it because of the PR job that the UFC does in telling us they're the best? Most of these guys come into the UFC with less than stellar MMA records which is why when they enter the UFC they start off with a UFC record. It's PR to make the fighters look elite. Any fighter who doesn't agree to be stepped on by the UFC doesn't get to fight in the UFC.

I'm bored with people saying Pac fights bigger guys. Yes he started boxing at 106 pounds, he was also 16 then. Guess what, at 16 Floyd was also 106 pounds and had just won a national Golden Gloves championship. I think it was 1993. Manny was born 1 year after Mayweather so please stop the BS. Yes, he fight bigger guys but under conditions that cause them to drain themselves dry. Get real...

Why no lawsuit against Paulie? Paulie was one of the first to openly state he felt Manny was juicing. Why doesn't the lawsuit involve him? I guess Paulie's pockets are deep enough yet.

Someone please define "CLOUT" for Yesir. He states "Mayweather doesn't have the clout to face someone like Martinez" That's funny. A total misuse of a word. If anything, he absolutely has the clout to face anyone. Now you may feel that he doesn't have the balls, or the desire, or the wherewithall, but the CLOUT, wow! Please correct yourself...LOL

Some of you guys obviously post strictly from a like/dislike point of view. Pac's official earnings from the last 2 years is $27.5 million. PBF has earned more than Pac in each of his PPV fights than Pac has in his last 2 years of fighting.

Wouldnt' call it a war of words, more like Fury got his butt handed to him. Direll is from the streets. There is no way Fury wins a war of words, especially when there is so much truth to pounce on.

I'm glad other fighters are beginning to join this movement. It is needed. Despite what some fans believe, not the current testing does not catch enough fighters doping. Boxing seems to always be behind the 8 ball. This is 2010. Everything is more sophisticated. Come on boxing, catch up!!!

No disrespect to Amir but Rahmadan isn't continual fasting. Muslims typically rise before dawn and eat, then refrain from eating til dusk at which time they are free to eat again. Muslims who participate in Rahmadan still work as usual. My question is, why can't Amir work during that time? Lame excuse

I anticipate, if he's successful, Bradley fighting on the undercard of May Pac, assuming they fight, against either a Golden Boy fighter (such Saul Alvarez who's being groomed) or Arum fighter (such as Clottey, Melligan, Martirosyan or Alphoso Gomez). A win against Abreju and a win against any of those fighters puts him in direct line to fight May.

Here's a clue Cotto and Arum. WE ARE AGAINST IT!!!

I do believe that the fight did 1.4million. I think they should do a 50/50 split unless the fight ends before 12 in which case the winner gets 65%.

Please! Bring back RJJ! Lennox was decent. Wasn't great, but decent. I surely do hope they bring back Roy Jones. I think he'll have more time on his hands now that his boxing career is nearly, finally complete. One more farewell fight in Pensacola and then he should hang them up.

@ 16 May was 106 pounds too!!! I'm bored with people saying Pac fights bigger guys. Yes he started boxing at 106 pounds, he was also 16 then. Guess what, at 16 Floyd was also 106 pounds and had just won a national Golden Gloves championship. I think it was 1993. Manny was born 1 year after Mayweather so please stop the BS. Yes, he fight bigger guys but under conditions that cause them to drain themselves dry. Get real...

I'm confused. The rules clearly state this for accidental injuries. --------------------- Accidental: If a boxer is accidentally injured and cannot continue fighting before the completion of the fourth round, the fight shall be declared a technical draw. If a boxer is accidentally injured and as a result the referee determines that he cannot continue fighting in that or later rounds, the result of the fight shall be determined by the judges’ scorecards as long as four rounds have been completed. The fighter ahead on the scorecards shall be declared the winner by technical decision. If there is a draw in the scorecards, the bout shall be declared a draw.:bs2::banghead:

Its convenient for Pacs people to say do'nt look at their results for the Clottey fight, look at our results for the Cotto fight. Examine that. Consider each fighter's last four fights. Pac did 700,000 against Clottey. He did 1,250,000 against Cotto. Against Hatton Pac did 850,000. Against Oscar Pac did 1,250,000. That's a combined 4,050,000. May did 1,400,000 against Mosley. Against Marquez he did 1,000,000. Against Hatton he did 915,000 domestic (over 2,000,000 world wide). Against Oscar he did 2,400,000. That's a combined 5,715,000. Pick the last 2, May did better. Pick the first two, May did better. Pick the middle two, guess what, May did better PPV numbers. He is the bigger draw, PERIOD! Why should he not expect a larger share?

This Rey dude is really funny. If May moves they say he won't stand and fight, if he stands and fights they say he can't move as well. Very funny, not like ha ha funny, like stupid funny.

Add the Rest of the Story yes, floyd opted not to fight Margarito for $8million because he was offered $12million to fight Baldimir.

Williams doesn't look, sound or act like a star Dismal turnout would be an understatement. Williams doesn't carry himself like a champion/star at all. He looks like a kid off the block. That's not a problem but corporate America, and yes business plays a large part in this, does not gravitate towards that. Before you guys say I'm racist, I'm black. For freak sake he did the initial press conference in a plain white t-shirt. Geez

yep, cotto made him retire in the first place. What a joke. They wanted none of cotto, too. It's a fact that the mayweather seniors were so sure of cotto dominating pac in their fight last year. Lo and behold they couldn't believe cotto was forced to ride his bike in the later rounds. They were very impressed with pac. Something they think floyd can't possibly do. bro you can't be serious. You think cotto made pbf retire? Wow! I guess we'll just ignor arum openly stating to the media that cotto wasn't ready for mayweather. Wow.

No mo' catch weights As if we don't have enough crappy belts as is. I'm freakin tired of all these catch weight fights. Fights at 142, 145, 164, etc. Yada yada yada. If you're gonna fight for or defend a title it should at least be at the specified limit, without exception. :banghead:

If Paulie fights this fight the way he's been talking this should be a good match. Paulie's not a killer but he can hit. We've seen in the past that it doesn't take very much to ding Khan's bell. We'll see...

Originally I was favoring Khan to beat Paulie. Now I must admit that I am being driven by personal feelings. I hope Paulie's takes him out. If he does win, he better hope that his people don't get him Bradley or Alexander. Khan is by far the weekest light welterweight champion and got his title by beating a Kotelnik who should not have even been in position for the belt. Kotelnik lost his eliminator bout to M'baye who won the title against a pitiful Balbi. M'baye then fights to a draw with Kotelnik and in his next fight lost the title to Galvin Rees who turns around and in his next fight lost it to Kotelnik. Kotelnik then beats Maidana who some how in his next fight faces Victor Ortiz for an interim version of the same title. Then, Khan beat Kotelnik. Wow! How can this garbage organization have a full champion and an interium champion fighting at the same time? Ridiculous! These guys have been bouncing around each other for the last 3 years and things are just as muttered between them as when they started. By far Bradley and Alexander are much concise as champions.

Arum this is a DAMN JOKE!!! Arum this is damn joke!!! A rematch with Cotto? For what!?!?!? Taking on Margarito, for what?? Margarito has had one fight against Garcia, a fighter who had no chance of beating him. The PPV was so dismal that you won't list the official numbers. I heard it was less than 100,000 buys at 24.95 and that most of the 22,000 tickets were severely discounted. WOOOOW! I don't care where they fight, I WON'T WATCH!!!

Damn!!! Of course he sides Mayweather, is it my imagination, or didn't the Klits already oppose this extra testing... there's the excuse for it not to happen right there. What's wrong with the normal testing that they do, doesn't it catch enough users already? Besides the USADA isn't perfect either just a bigger body, run by the gov't as opposed to the State. Bro it doesn't catch enough. I'm not saying that the USDA is the answer, but the current levels of testing is ridiculous. Vitali tested positive before. Sure I know he says it was from a substance in a prescribed medication but can't you see the safety net involved in that excuse? Without repurcusions, any fighter can state that. If a stricter protocol was in place these fighters would know what they could do and what they couldn't do. As it stands, the protocol is very weak with big holes all through it.

Never that linear I really like Tim Bradley and Devon Alexander but Devon's manager is trying to make this sound linear and its not. Sure its easy for him to say they should just fight but his fighter, Devon, isn't the big dawg. None of them are superstars yet but Tim sits in the lead at the moment. Devon is a 2-title champion and they need to pay his opponent right. If you want an up and comer to take a chance at setting his career back 2 or 3 years, then he should at least get compensated for it. Offering guys chump change to take on a 2 title champion isn't going to fly.

I know for a fact that Malloy does go weeks on end without returning phone calls. When you call the office you can barely get a decent answer. Kudos to you One Punch!!!

Let me make sure I understand. Floyd outsells Pac in every scenario and after disposing on Mosley, a fighter Pac wouldn't even face at 140, Pac then agrees to terms that were no longer on the table prior to any new negotiations beginning. Pac then says we are in negotiations but I won't bend on anything. He'll make somewhere in the area of $7-8 million to fight Cotto because no one wants to see that fight, and probably about as much to face Margartio because the public is still pissed at that dude. His PPV agaisnt Garcia was so low Arum won't even list it anywhere.

Don't know if Khan normally talks trash or not, Paulie does. If Khan doesn't, it seems Paulie's in his head bit. He might go into the fight looking for the KO, not good

Exactly how is Team Pac doing that? By leaking information to the media, exactly what they said they wouldn't do? Manny accepted the 14 day thing as a preimptive strike to win public opinion over because he knew that since Mosley did it totally random then he would be under the same scrutny. You claim Mayweather is sabotaging the fight, how do you know that? By the things that Pac's lawyers are saying? The double talk that comes out of Roach's mouth? Mayweather and his entire team has been silent throughout this entire thing.
