Mayweather vs. Marquez Negotiations Stalled on Weight

[Dave Rado]

Where in the post did the guy say he was black. He can be bias but not racist...

I completely agree, I was just responding to what you wrote in your previous post, which I thought was odd.

You ****heads disgust me... First off rookie.. JMM called Floyd out.

And its really damn funny how all the PR and Mex posters on here try and say all this negative stuff about Floyd simply because they like Miguel Cotto. Everytime you look at a negative post about Floyd and look at the pic of the poster.... its always a PR little ***** hater. Its annoying... PR has, and has always had great champions yet somehow it seems you don't know how to recognize any other champions... Mex boxers are also great in their own respect but you mutha****az are soo damn annoying with this crying stuff.. All I hear from you guys is crying and moaning... "excuses, he runs, he is ducking, Cotto is cooler, he lost to Castillo, Judah scored a knockdown"... Well guess what??? who gives a crap??? At the end of the day.. He IS the MAN and everyone in this damn website knows that deep inside.. the only boxer alive that has no lapses, no weaknesses, no deficiencies....period. Support your countrymen and your fav boxers but stay OBJECTIVE. Don't come with this weak "he is ducking" stuff.. He wanted Cotto back then and Arum said "he is still too green".... TRANSLATION: I think he will lose. Mosley hid behind a toothache twice and all of a sudden now Mayweather should submit to them... Cotto has never once called out Floyd.. He don't want that. Instead of making all this noise on here you should implore your fighter to call out Floyd. Interestingly enough.. JMM has more balls than Miguel as far as I'm concerned because he called Floyd out and Floyd always reacts to personal "call outs" (like Hatton). But Miguel lately has dissappointed me... He never wanted to fight Tony... Tony supposedly "earned" that fight.. But really it was magical Bob's plan to keep the money in-house. Miguel was scared that whole fight, tried to fight going backwards and got folded up. He left the style he knew to accomodate the fact he was facing Margo... A true champ don't adjust his game because of his challenger. He is supposed to fight HIS fight which was to sit in the pocket and body punch and counter Margo. And of course I do realize that with all the mess with the wraps and Tony.. But remember... Tony also TOOK all of Cotto's best shots and kept coming with a smile on his face (the wraps couldn't have helped there). And then Miguel goes over to pick up Paul Williams' old belt. Ha!!!!! he never wanted it when PAUL had it. LMFAO.. Paul is a true middleweight anyway. But the whole thought process is still suspect to me. Who the hell was Michael Jennings?? that was a joke... I know you all are dissappointed in him too but don't take it out on Floyd cuz it won't turn Cotto's 1 back to a 0. JMM gets props for wanting the fight but like GRUSTLER said... why the hell would you call him out and completely rule out fighting him at 147?? Marquez has always exceeded my expectations so I think it could be an interesting fight for Floyd's comeback... But don't sleep on a Collazo fight because word on the street is that if this one falls through then he might be plan B.. Call of Duty awaits... Im out..

Pac is just as big a star now than floyd ever was. He just beat DLH. Wait until the ppv buys for hatton vs pac to properly judge his drawing power.

Any pac fight against any elite would sell. Stop swinging by Floyds nutsack.

LOL at this clown...

Dude,

Stop with the childish insults. You should be mature enough to have a boxing discussion without resorting to that. If you are out of your depth, just ignore.

Yes, the commercial viability of Pac-hatton will be very telling. And I'm willing to wait for those results.

But you may want to adjust your expectations. if you are using the "DLH follow-up" as an index, then remember that the household penetration for "The World Awaits" was nearly twice as much as Pac-DLH.

it was floyd who was playing duck duck goose

cotto-duck
margarito-duck

Flip,

Are you aware that Mosley has turned down TWO mayweather offers?

Are you aware that Cotto (ahem, Arum) turned down a mayweather offer?

Floyd turned down margarito.

How long have you been following the sport.

mosley was a 154lber while pbf was a 135 calling out the big boys. are you supposed to take that seriously?

[DonTaseMeBrah]

Why would they do something like that. Notice...Mayweather's left overs were rockin Cotto's ****

is that so u floyd hugger, is that why;

cotto tko'd victoriano sosa in 4 while floyd UD him, how about

cotto tko'd demarcus corley in 5 while floyd UD him, how about

cotto tko zab judah 11th round while floyd UD


Yeah, floyd doenst need to waste time with cotto. Who was rocking who brah??

JMM called Floyd out... and Floyd had been chasing the bigger DLH for 7 years... so don't go there.. As far as the WW's.. he has called all of them out in the past except for Clottey and obviously the younger Berto.

[Dave Rado]

Is 140 or a catchweight reasonable? Sure. But why give up anything in negotiation if you don't have to? Manny wanted a million dollars for every pound Oscar was over 147.

this is a business, after all.

It's not just a business. It's also a sport. In a sport people want two competitors to compete on equal terms to see who is the best. If he wants to be rated highly as a fighter and respected by neutrals (rather than just by his own fans), he would fight him at 140.

[QUISQUEYA]

let's be real... floyd fought in front of 1000 paid customers when he fought sharmba mitchell and bruseles. pac fought in front of 14,000 fans when he fought jorge solis

Flip,

You gotta at least TRY to be accurate. Seriously, playboy.
