Mayweather Jr. Has: "No Interest in Hatton or Pacquiao"

[brently1979]

Everyone except Mayweather keeps mentioning his name. Mayweather himself doesn't want to fight. Leave him alone.

I agree Brent

[Patty Tanager]

no **** dude. #1 vs. #2 across all weights. that's almost unfathomable. we almost had it with B-Hop vs. Roy in 2002 but nope. I would be willing to cancel all other boxing for 2009 just to have this fight go down.

Pull yourself together mate.

What does Mosely's taking roids and Sturm being big have to do with how 'healthier' Oscar looked?

And what Castillo says about blahblahblah is that records are statistics; easy to spin em'.

So. Like I said. Don't aggrandize your boy PBF by trashing Manny's win over Oscar. Better, find a way to compel him to prove the supremacy that he (and some of his fans) so self-righteously claim. In the ring.

That is all.

Yeah and Floyd was getting Mosely's 3rds or 4ths on Oscar already by the time PBF fought him

That's what you said and I responded with the EPO and Steroids that were in Mosley's system when he beat Oscar so Oscar was at an unfair advantage.

Oscar wasn't in shape for Sturm.

Either way, Oscar was past his prime when he met Floyd and I said this, but he was weight-drained and past his prime when he met Pac. At least when Oscar fought Floyd he was healthy as far as weight and possibly 20 pounds more than he did with Pac. Being drained is being dead.

Pac's win over Oscar is ****. If it means anything, then I'm giving massive credit to Larry Holmes and Berbick for beating Ali...or Rocky over Louis...or Lewis over Tyson...Toney over Holyfield...and so on.

And I rip Floyd's legacy all the time at 147+

[multivitamins]

It was from an article after the fight. It said both fighters came in at 149. Hatton puts on 4; Mayweather 2 for fight time. The article was about how Graham and Kayes wanted Hatton to come in at his usual weight he fights for at 140 pounds, which was 147-149 or so. It also mentioned the advantage of having the fight at 147 because Hatton would have an easy time making it.

It was only one source, so I'm not sure on its comlete validity, although some others I've heard said the same.

Maybe someone will post there finds.


The good part of it at 147 was that it allowed Ricky to come in at whatever he liked.

When did Hatton looked good at 147? Hatton in his entire life never had problems making 140.. Size matters because he has to face biggger guys at 147. At 140 Give me names close to beating Hatton? He did something Cotto couldn't do.

Mayweather is doing other ventures. I dont expect him to come back especially after a 2 year lay-off.

Mayweather quotes "I retired from boxing, I wont let boxing retire me".

[Allucard]

Yeah, it's called there is a life after boxing.

Floyd isn't in perfect condition anyway...so why bother


I do think the fight is risky considering where Floyd is at Mentally and Physically right now.

Floyd in his prime was a wrecking ball but his skills have clearly diminished after he turned 30. He relies too much on speed and reflexes he'll only comeback if he has to and hopefully i won't see it or even hear about it.
It's funny how someone like Hopkins can fight till they're damn near 50 and a Roy Jones or Floyd turn clearly older once they hit their 30's.

[loui_ludwig]

PBF will comeback when he has no more dollars to flash.

Bling Bling to ing ing.

[Silencers]

As I said, it was a ploy from Hatton's team.

As I said, it was a ploy from Hatton's team.

yeah, Hatton always does this.

Hatton promotes Floyd more than he does Guinness
