    to be 100 percent honest...this breaking news didnt surprise me. Nor did the reaction of boxing fans surprise me. He gets a TON of criticism ANYWAY, so why should this decision be any different? The world isn't over. Everyone is STILL going to tune in on July 18th. I think its funny how people say, "thats IT! I'M DONE WITH FLOYD!", but they will CONTINUE to post about the man, they will CONTINUE to read his interviews and watch his fights, if they are fans or not.

    I am not going to defend nor criticize the decision for this fight to be at 147.

    When its ALL said and done, the fight that the FANS REALLY want to see Mayweather vs. PacMan..I believe that is the SOLE reason that he came back anyways.
    when it's all said and done.. Mayweather will be a decent fighter all time status and will never be what you guys make him out to be.. why? because legends went above and beyond, defied odds and did the impossible.. Floyd played it safe and didnt like taking risks.
    GOAT my ass... Sugar Ray Leonard came back from a 3 year haitus to fight THE Marvin Hagler.. Mayweather came back from a year and a half lay off to fight a super featherweight in Marquez.. and Mayweather is better then Leonard?

    That's what makes Leonard great and why Mayweather will never be as great as him.

      Dlh was way past prime and weight drained. Mayweather is still in his prime against Marquez.

      Oscar De La Hoya after an almost 2 year layoff came back and fought Ricardo Mayorga. You didnt see him calling for Joel Casamayor to tune up against Mayweather

        YESTERDAY

        at 10:10 p.m.

        AND U MEAN TO ***ING TELL ME THAT ITS MAY 19TH.....AND 12;41 AND NO OTHER SITE IS REPORTING IT.


        sIDE nOTE---

        Pac went up TWO divisons to fight Oscar.

        Thx.
        i can copy and paste in different threads too.

        no other site has disputed it as far as I know. It's the ring website ffs, not some random website talking **** about Floyd. Its a credible source, and it hasnt been disputed. So, unless some news comes out saying that its false (from a credible source) i think it would be wise to shut the f.uck up or look like an absolute idiot.
        Just to be clear, as your convinced its false, are u saying that Floyd fighting JMM at 147 is a complete ***** move and he should get 0 credit no matter how he wins?

          I wasn't talking about legacy in my last post. I was speaking specifically about Shane-Floyd...BUT you are entitled to feel how you want to feel and I am 2.

            jmm got conned. the old bait-n-switch. now that the promotion and training camps and some money are already started and doled out jmm might have to go through with it.
