    Floyd "Fighting Oscar is going to be like taking candy from a baby"

    The Pound for Pound King, Floyd Mayweather Jr. is mkaing $20 million dollars for 5 weeks worth of work in the WWE. Mayweather Jr. says he has been a fan of wrestling since he was a kid. Recently quoted by Steve Carp for the Las Vegas Review Journal, Mayweather Jr. doesn't know if the WWE will be worth the risk, but dissed Oscar De La Hoya, saying the rematch will be like taking candy from a Baby.


    Quoted by the publication, Mayweather Jr. stated: "I've been a big fan of wrestling since I was a kid," adding: "It's always been entertaining."

    Leonard Ellerbe, Mayweather's friend and manager, said: "We received a tremendous offer and, as his manager, I'm always trying to expand his fan base.

    Ellerbe went on to add: "There's 47 million people who watch wrestling every week. This will be great exposure for Floyd."

    In regards to the move being worth it or not, Mayweather Jr. stated: "Is the risk worth it?" adding: "We'll find out. But fighting Oscar? That's easy work. It's like taking candy from a baby."

      I have to agree with Floyd atleast he is honest. This fight is no contest.

      Oscar fought the best he could the last time they fought and couldn't get the job done, what makes people think he could now when he is a year older?

        Well, at least he admits that it's not going to be a real challenge for him.

            Ricky Hatton got one thing right when assessing Floyd Mayweathers style he does like to make u miss for a few rounds then come on late when u start to tire thats exactly what he did with Oscar in the 1st fight & he will do the same again we all know how bad Oscar stamina is

            infact u could make a case that he would have beaten Floyd ,Trinidad ,Mosley 2 if it was'nt for his Terrible Stamina

              and then Vince McMahon asked floyd, When will you be fighting this guy named Miguel Cotto.

              And floyd responded, "I'm going to retire from boxing on my terms, boxnig won't retire me. I'll wrestle him in a wrestlnig ring with a script approved by my team of advisors but I will never set foot in a boxing ring with that beast!"

                  It'll be 8-4 again. Oscar will use the jab a little more, Floyd will throw a little more in return.
