When asked who are Sam Watson and his sons, and why are they always in the ring:
Leon's Response: The reality of the situation is, in terms of what they know and understand, they are absolute nobodies in the business. Al Haymon once told me that he is never in the ring because he feels it's the fighters time to shine. Other than making people think Watson IS Haymon, I find it strange that he refuses to enter the ring or take photos with his fighters, but then replaces himself in the ring with two or three camera whores. It's beyond laughable to me. If they knew boxing like they knew where the cameras are, they'd actually be able to provide a boxer with substantial imput. I've gotten a ton of emails about this and a bunch of facebook messages. None of them are pro athletes. Sam Watson did tell me that Matt Kemp was going out with Rihanna because "they" made that happen, which was almost as laughable as hearing him tell Allan Green, Breadman and I that he got a Bentley in his driveway, but never drives it. LMAO. It must be because nobody is holding a camera in the backseat.
Here I was thinking I was the only one who gets annoyed by these imbeciles.
For people who don't know, you will see Sam Watson (black man with grey hair & beard) during fighters introductions and post fight interviews. He will most likely be the only one looking directly at the camera every 5 seconds then checking the screens above for his image. If the camera man changes angles, Sam will reposition himself. Its fkn annoyng. During introductions he will be talking nonstop which is also fkn annoying. Maybe its just me.
In my opinion, we can't put Floyd's name with those ATG, because he hasn't fought all best fighters of his time, he must fight first and win, or win the rematch convincingly, that's how you start to become a TOP 10 ATG. I hope for him that he does fight in those wars cause he wants to be remembered as the GOAT.
Stop with all the comparisons fukwit! Floyd is still a current fighter........fukwit!
once mosley tasted pac's power, he got scared and went into survival mode. same thing happened with clottey. same thing will happen to wifebeater. same thing will happen to every black boxer pac fights.
100% guarantee that any black boxer pac fights will be a boring fight.
Just an excuse to justify Pac fighting one dimensional fighters, unless they're old and shot, of course.
I didn't see an intimidated Mosley. I saw the businessman Mosley. I saw the Mosley who fought Mayweather from round 3 - 12. I saw the Mosley who successfully lured the two biggest cash cows in boxing and I honestly believe he knew he didn't have the tools to defeat either, but rather the skills to avoid being hurt while getting paid.
The thing is Shane was in survival mode after being hit harder than he has ever been hit in his entire career and whats scary was Pac wasn't even trying when he threw that punch.
If Pac really wanted to he could knock Shanes head off his shoulders and I'm not even joking.
So you haven't seen the Vernon Forrest fight.
Poll coming.
Vote and back up your reasoning.
I say the man who goes out his career undefeated and untested or at least never been pushed to the very edge in a fight loses more. Then again if you're pro-Floyd legacy comes second to $$$
To all you idiots that think Floyd only fights for money......how does it feel being mind-raped by the man you love to hate?
Let's just say, by years end, Pac's fans will be accusing Floyd of using PEDs.
The outcry is just a bit over the top. I keep hearing people chime in saying how it was disgraceful and disgusting. Really?? When it first happened, all I said was "Ortiz is a fkn idiot!" Did Floyd capatalize on the situation? Sure he did. Was it illegal? NO! I was just dissapointed at the way it ended. We've all been worked up for this fight for 3-4 months, only for it to end the way it did. I somehow feel that Floyd isnt happy with the way it ended either due to the fact that he's not going to get credit for the way the KO came about.
Completely agree. If it were the other way round, it would be upset/knockout of the century.
