      Thus, it is a smart move.

        There's a lot of reasons to suggest that he's not injured, but it is a bit weird how on his comeback he has managed to miraculously pick up an injury. If he's scared, he's a wimp - he fought Hatton, who is a lot stronger than JMM, so that gives me reason to believe he is actually injured.

            4: Yes. I think everybody was about to lose a ****load here and that they just needed a way out. That's the whole point.
            These are weak responces.

            1 and 3 -I have known someone with a rib cartalidge injury, they pushed it came back soon and they were out of work for a year, that injury is no joke broken ribs would have been better imo.

            2 and 5 - Who says he cares, you can speculate if you want but you have no proof one way or the other so these are meaningless points. Plus he is a fighter, to me a fighter should be careful about releasing ibnfo on their injuries (this sport is not a game).

            4- Ticket sales are a very small peice of the revenue pie, the fight probably had to do like 400-500k to break even, so even if the fight only did Floyd Zab numbers (like 375k they would not be taking that much of a bath). Money has already been spent in promotion that is money they will never get back.


            I will say it again the simplest reason is the most likely reason, and what is mroe spimple that Floyd is an aging boxer that is human therefore can get injured, or some grandious conspiracy involving hundereds if not thousand of people (something will come out if this is so).

              I disagree. While I believe Mayweather can beat Pacquiao, I wouldn't jump on Pacquiao after a long layoff. JMM is the perfect tune up and sadly, I'd perfer if this fight were on free HBO.

                I am much more willing to accept a little of both. Rib injuries are no joke though and the only way to heal them is rest so he would have to totally stop his camp. Floyd is a gym rat so I am sure in his mind he needs 6 full weeks to prepare, so if he even has to take just 2 weeks off you most likely need to add another 6 for him to train (also this would be playing safe with an injury that can be the lingering kind). If you are going to push it back that far anyways why not wait for a more optimum date.

                This is much more likely then a straight fake injury though.

                    As I said Floyd should just release those medical records and tell what happened. Theneverything would be just fine. Of course he could really be injured and that just might be the case. We just don't know and what's left of Floyds credibility takes a hit.

                    Ticketsales are not the primary revenue in a big fight. I know that, but I am sure that the accountants in GBP can estimate the PPV sales based on ticketsales and other parameters. They just might have calculated that this fight in July would bomb.

                      Floyd has plenty of reason to not go ahead with the JMM fight in July. Several million dollars worth of reasons that is since there's persistent rumours that the ticketsale was well below GBP's expectations.

                      The fight is well over a month away and it's postponed because of a bruise??? No broken bones. A bruise.... lol.

                      Everybody in the boxing industry is sceptical about this excuse so we need to see some evidence.

                      If the questions below is answered I would believe that Floyd is injured. As long as the answers remain a secret Floyd is uninjured as far as I know:

                      1. What's the name of the sparringpartner who busted Floyds ribs?

                      2. What's the name of the doctor? Why is it so secret?

                      3. What does the sparring partner do now? Is he fired?

                      4. Has the NSAC received or demanded any medical medical injury documentation?

                      5. Has any x-rays been made at all and why aren't they public?


                      Feel free to answer any or all of the above questions since I might have missed a bit of the overseas mediacoverage.

                      Untill then this is a fraud.
                      You hang off every word from Kessler's ****-hole...but you don't believe **** about Floyd.


                      If Mikkel stayed too long in the sun and got a deep tan...you'd start hating him too.
