I saw that as well.He stands to gain from the Floyd-Mosley match maybe.He knows Floyd is good but wouldnt be surprised if these guys were jealous of Floyd's success because he obviously makes more money than them and has been for a long time.
As for Mosley he should learn to build his own brand not to piggy bank on other people's success.Floyd and Pacquiao work a lot outside the ring to build their market worth then Mosley just goes around begging.
It looked like a scene from a school yard to me. I think Shane got what he wanted, ie people are talking about that fight now. He drummed up some interest but in a ****ty way, but hey it worked. We talkin about it right?
thats the bottom line right there...shane is 40...he's gotta do what he gotta do...
i remember after the hatton fight, floyd bumrushed jim, larry, and steward doing the wrap up...hey what goes around comes around sometime...
I thought it was obvious that it was staged, at least by HBGOlden Boy.
It didn't seem like Floyd was in on the joke, though. Max dropped Shane's name, and Floyd appeared to genuinely allow Shane to have a little bit of face time. The rest came across as his getting sandbagged.
I'm not a Floyd fan, but am surprised at how many people were OK with what went down in the post-fight interview. Antonio Tarver was raked through the coals for crashing the post-fight presser after Roy beat Ruiz, yet everyone seems to applaud Shane and Bernard bum rushing Floyd less than five minutes after his first fight back in nearly two years.
Granted, Floyd's interview was going nowhere fast, but HBO and Golden Boy knew what to expect the moment they agreed to fund his comeback. What was allowed in the ring wasn't right, and neither was Max for cutting off the interview when he did.
