Floyd Mayweather Should Fight Shane Mosley, Says Arum

[rod25]

its just nice to **** around every once and a while...lol

I feel ya!

[bluetuazon]

Manny Pacquiao is the more respected fighter,

I know it hurts because respect is what Floyd and his fans covet most,


but it shall set you free.

i agree with this..

Why is that Mayweather never wants to fight a legit (elite) fighter?

Easy answer; because his super, duper scare to lose and that is it. Common people, Mayweather fans, stop defending him, as a boxing fan I want to see the best fights out there, that include if my favorite boxer has to face his worst nightmare. Mayweather should learn something from Felix "Tito" Trinidad; Don't be afraid of losing. Tito's legacy won't be diminish because he lost 3 times. Tito fought with bigger and stronger fighters than himself, Tito knew that he had a slim chance of beating Hopkins, Winky or Roy (although in his mind he thought that he could knock them out), yet, he took on the challenge, he wanted to give his loyal fans, boxing fans in general and his people of Puerto Rico something to talk about even if it meant losing. Tito could have stay in the 154 or 160 for those fights that he made over 168 pounds against the boxers mention above, yet, Tito said; "bring on the TITANS" and he took the fights. Now that's a fighter willing to make a great legacy (Blocker, Camacho, Campas(56-0) when he fought him, Oba Carr (32-0) when he fought him, Whitaker, De La Hoya, Reid, Vargas, Joppy) not a fighter picking on smaller guys to build an incomplete legacy. Common even Ali and Robinson lost fights and they are consider to be the best of the best of all times but they took every challenge that was presented to them. Moreover, if Shane Mosley would have stay away from the way of the late Vernon Forrest (lost twice to him), Winky Wright (lost twice to him) or Miguel Cotto, Mosley would be undefeated too, but he didn't, he took on the challenges that were presented to him. I will have more respect toward Mayweather if he faces elite fighters like Mosley, Berto, Clottey, Cotto among others, and if he loses any of those fights it won't diminish his legacy because he took on the best fighters out there and if he wins them, then more power to him and his legacy and maybe like that he can consider himself as one of the best of all times but not while his facing guys that can't present a risk to his career. You will never see Mayweather going up to challenge a bigger man from another division, instead, he will challenge the smaller guys to come up and face him at a weight-catch that he cannot even make, how can you build a legacy that way or consider yourself as the best ever? Nobody can't tell me that Marquez is better than Mosley because is not true, Mosley will knock Marquez out in 3 rounds or in less, Marquez is a great fighter but in his own weight class not in welterweight. So, will see who's next in Mayweather's list, but don't expect a real challenge for him on less God tells him otherwise.

I just lump PacHugger, Pac-Boy, PacRules, etc etc all as one annyoing poster.

not bad for a floyd *****..lol

Arum is wishing Mosley by some fluke could beat Mayweather, so he won't have to negotiate with him anymore.

I see right through that scumbag.

I still don't understand why you Floyd fans are so apprehensive about seeing Floyd fight Mosley?

It would be one thing if Shane was on this streak of losing or maybe won 1 fight in his last 4 to where the fight just didn't make sense, but he's indeed the Welterweight Champion and won the title in destructive fashion THIS JANUARY.

I like the quote from Boiler Room "Pick up your skirt, grab your balls, and let's make some money" LOL because regardless of what some of ya'll might think, Floyd vs Shane makes money.

I agree I'd like to see floyd fight shane because I knew floyd would just dominate manny anyway but I hope the fans aren't just going to let pacquioa's team and arum get away with this bull **** without criticism because this is just blatant dodging. Giving up on a fighters biggest payday of his career because he knows he'll be beat. If yall felt Floyd dodged margarito when he fought hatton and DLH for about 25 mil a piece instead of 8mill guaranteed then what would you call this?

[bluetuazon]

first of all floyd is the best arum. and second he can't fight the best becuase bob won't allow the winner between cotto and pac which would be the best. bob knows that floyd will spank both and is using the money or mosley to **** up the mega fight.

then he should fight mosley or Pwill then....

[BMWM3P]

Arum is right, Floyd is milking his fans for all they're worth. He will never fight anybody who poses a real threat to the 0.

[gqjohnb]

I personally will not buy a mayweather ppv fight unless its floyd vs Manny/cotto/mosley I would pay for mayweather-paul williams but that fight isn't going to happen and I don't blame floyd personally because he's a guy fighting in his 4th weight division and williams is a middleweight that came down to the welterweight division plus that fight doesn't bring enough money in comparison to the other fights on the table. If floyd fights somebody else he would need to put it on hbo boxing after dark as a main event. Arum should not get a pass for this though its ridiculous. He said 60/40 would be music to his ears because he could pass on from the biggest fight of the year and the biggest money fight of manny's career. Come on yall are just going to let this dude sweep this fight aside without any accountability or criticism.

[bluetuazon]

no fear at all jrosales13. shane had is chance. **** him he's out of the picture. the real fight is cotto vs mayweather. do you have fear for that fight? because little manny will get embarraced by mayweather in front of the world. so keep shane's old ass out of this one. HE HAD HIS CHANCE!!

funny how floyd fans say that shane had his chance? what is the difference?...if floyd was so good then why not fight shane now? shane is old right? shane is past his prime right? so no doubt floyd will whoop his ass right? why not floydie?

i have respect for floyd's skills...he is one of the best of this generation...we boxing fans just wants him to grow some balls to fight all the best oppositions out there...if he is indeed the best...only time will tell floyd....
