    Floyd already paints that picture, V....there are no smoke screens or puzzles here....Floyd will not fight a real threat at WW and his excuse( or his stans excuse) of him not even being a true ww is all out the window..... 135 down Floyd took on all comers and proved his greatness.....

        Are you kidding me? I thought Kellerman was asking legitimate questions...and I think Shane and BHOP did the right thing...it was probably the only thing that was entertaining for the PPV event. It was funny though Shane looked like a little kid when Shane came up...talking about Basketball...SO WHAT!!?? lol

          Kellerman shoulda let Floyd speak but the fact that he didn't has got the boxing world speaking even more about it. It's unfair though because Floyd never got his time to shine and say what was on his mind.

          TBH he gave the clearest indication yet that he's waiting for Pac and Cotto when he didn't immediately accept Shane's challenge, but then again you should let a guy rest after he's gone 12 rounds rather than bombarding him with challenges before he can weigh up the situation.

            Most people wanted to hear what Floyd had to say, and Kellerman backed out. That pissed me off. Why couldn't they just let him speak? It would have been more entertaining.

              We will have to see what happen. That's all I am going to say. I believe that he came back for a reason, and that was to beat the guys that everyone said that he was ducking. So I will not say that he will not fight a true ww. I believe he will, but its something that we will have to see play out.

              Also, I find it funny when people say what he did at the lower weights but when he did all that, NO ONE EVER REALLY TUNED IN TO MAYWEATHER!
              If he was truly great back then, and fought all comers, then why was he FIRST PPV in June of 05? People like to bring up his past and say how great he was etc, but he wasn't even appreciated at those lower weights LIKE HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN. He turned to the bad guy and he finally got the attention that he desired all along and now ppl can't stop bashing him and every decision that he makes. But NOW, people like to look back at this career and give him props for the past but not the present. If the boxing community REALLY appreciated what he did BACK THEN, Floyd Mayweather JR would be a lot more appreciated NOW.

                Straight up, V. Webb. And there are fighters who've never made it into the big, big leagues going through that lack of recognition for their abilities right now. Floyd's lucky in that way, but he still can't win whatever.

                  The lighter weights usually dont get as much attention as the higher weights also..once upon a time it was just the Dela Hoyas and the Tysons who were really selling PPV's. him "turning" to a bad guy had nothing to do w/it....people arent bashing him for being a bad guy, THATS WHAT YOU DONT GET.....open your eyes man.,.,.Jeez, you think he came back to take on comers YET fought a light weight and calimed that Mosley who is the current #1 welter isnt a draw so he wont fight him

                    kellerman cut floyd off can't floyd snatched the mic from kellerman.... plus floyd was ducking all the questions, same as he ducks tough fights.

                    also, mosley wasn't doing ****... hopkins was the one starting ****. if floyd doesn't fight mosley, its a duck.

                      They never let him get a word in, I don't mind Kellerman ask about Mosley but he wouldn't let Floyd speak... it seemed like he just wanted to hear his own voice.
