    Again, Floyd's defensive stance is taylor made to block left hooks. His right hand is against his cheek where the punch will land. Against a southpaw, a straight left hand nullifies that. And if his throws a straight right hand, and southpaw counters with a right hook i.e. Zab Judah in the second round of their fight. Floyd would never risk getting hit by PW who would sit down on his punches. I mean he has a 2 inch reach on Floyd. Floyd would HAVE to get his in order to hit PW which he don't like getting hit.

      arum already said pac wants an easy fight in spring of 2010 so that he can boost his popularity before the election. that means floyd is out of the question.

      therefore, hbo must give floyd 1 option... fight mosley!

It is massively in Mayweather's commercial, legacy and every other sort of interests to fight Mosley in January followed by the Pac-Cotto winner after that.
      exactly, floyd should fight mosley while pac is off campaigning.

        [QUOTE=Pullcounter;6212880]floyd/mosley will do equal numbers with floyd/cotto. 1 million ppvers saw mosley call out floyd and saw floyd duck mosley.
        [QUOTE]

        That about sums it up for me. ONE MILLION PEOPLE saw HBO's episode of "Punk'd" with Mayweather being the victim and Mosley the antagonist. He is lucky HBO cut the interview show on this past weeknds broadcast (which was highly unusual).

          When did a fight between the two of them become that?????
          i was just joking and going off on a tangeant, but that would be a good selling point for the PPV. ni99as (the mayweathers) vs. blacks (the mosleys) for the soul of all africans americans.

A war of words broke out between Mosley/Hopkins and Mayweather. [details]
            = Shane was ducking me then, so i will duck him now.

              Floyd's fans are RIDICULOUS. Why are so-called boxing fans more concerned about the maximum Floyd can make for a fight rather than seeing him make the most competitive fights? I mean damn he is NOT making it rain on his fans. How about seeing a fight that is even remotely competititve. The ONLY fans who think Manny has a chance against Floyd are Filipino's. That aint racist, thats just a fact. Manny has ZERO chance against Floyd. But NOBODY can say a fight with Mosley is a easy fight. So what Shane turned him down before. **** happens. Make the damn fight and stop worrying about how much money he makes. Remember he said he was coming back to STEAL some more money. Not EARN it.

                Floyd just became a golden goose for HBO .... They're not going to push anything on him at this point.

                  What is he gonna do if they don't buy anymore of his fights? Go fight on Showtime? Retire? Floyd just wrote a $5 million dollar check to the IRS. His finances aint gonna be in order with a 4.4 million dollar purse. Making it rain in the club and his ******** habit is coming back to bite him in the ass.

                  Bottom line is the Pac fight wont get made. The Cotto fight won't get made. Arum aint letting his fighters take short money against anybody not named Dela Hoya. Manny has other options and so does Cotto. What is Floyd's option if he can't get either one because of negotiations? You think he is about to retire? Lemme guess, second fight with Oscar or Hatton....lol
