Floyd Mayweather Jr: "I Don't Need Shane Mosley"

[odogg8121]

I don't think he is... I think he has a grudge against Shane though.. One that, instead of just pounding his face in like any normal person would do, he denies a superfight with, just to keep Shane out the loop, and out the money.

you sound like u could be on to something there...

[Horus]

WOW thats real old news! Gee Willy wonkers can you get some more old stuff Beaver...After all we do live in the Past!.....****in idiot ! today is today. What matters is now. Punks and Pu$$y boys live in the past...and if you call yourself a fighter and have a beef with someone...Fight it out. Unless your scared and then all you can do is run your mouth and avoid the issue with bull**** like this.

Whatever the case you can YouTube that too. But this goes back even further then the second Vargas fight it goes back almost 10 years ago when Floyd was at 130 and Shane at 135 and Mayweather said he wanted Shane and Shane’s dad Jack said they would fight him for 8 figures when Shane was making low 7 figures and I mean low 7 figures. What does that say to you?

To me when you purposely price yourself out of a fight by that kind of a margin it means I thing: your scared and don’t want the fight.

Mosley can say whatever he wants to the mainstream public but true boxing fans know what it is; he is at the end of his career and he needs Mayweather to make the kind of payday he has craved his entire career only problem is where was he when Mayweather and himself were young and Floyd wanted that same chance?

But now its ok to call a guy out and spread lies to the public and tell which bits and pieces of the truth that you feel necessary to make a fight happen."

2006: MOSLEY TOOTH-ACHE PROBLEMS

it was odd that Mosley would wave off a potential bout with Mayweather back in 2006 after he had defeated Fernando Vargas for the second time. The fighter was asked about the possibility of taking on Mayweather by HBO’s Larry Merchant and Shane, rather oddly, began complaining about a loose tooth and said he would take some time off. Mayweather instead took on Carlos Baldomir, winning a boring unanimous decision and then signed on for a mega-fight with Oscar De La Hoya which he won, again by decision.

Mosley, who had been riding high on the wave of success the Vargas fights had provided for him, was suddenly on the outside looking in. And for a while it looked as though he would suffer from being under the au****es of Golden Boy Promotions rather than benefit from it. He didn’t fight again for seven months until he dropped down from the junior middleweight division to welterweight and took on Luis Collazo in February of this year. He won a clear cut decision but in the build up to De La Hoya – Mayweather he again seemed to be out of the loop.


2006:I’ve been chasing Shane Mosley for ten years.

“The Pretty Boy” told the New York Times after Mosley had destroyed Vargas for a second time that, “He earned the right to fight me by getting that spectacular knockout, but I’ve been chasing Shane Mosley for ten years. But I got to talk to Jin (Mosley’s wife) because she runs the show. We can make the fight happen but she’s the boss of that household.”

Dom,

Floyd doesn't plan to fight until the Spring. Trust that Floyd won't take a "stay-busy" fight. He just came off a 21 month layoff and was sharp as heck, so he knows he doesn't need to "stay busy". And if you look at his history before the layoff, he was only fighting 2x/year.

With that said, Floyd knows that he is the prettiest girl at the dance. Why should he commit to the math club geek early in the evening? FMJ is going to play coy and listen to all offers. And then he is going to end up with the quarterback. He'll sit back, and see how Nov 14 plays out. That fight won't outsell his. And maybe he sees how the Dec/Jan fights play out. Then he makes a date for the Spring.
PBF knows that Arum must approach him regarding a fight. I won't even discuss with anyone who tells me there is a bigger fight for Pac than either

Mayweather-Pacquiao
or
Mayweather-Mosley.

So, if Pac wants to go fight Marquez 3 for a fraction of the money, go ahead. If Pac wants to fight a bigger Mosley for less money, have at it.

The one thing Floyd is confident of is that he can get eight figure paydays. FMJ made $10 mil to fight Baldomir, and $15 mil to fight Marquez. Annd he wasn't in nearly as good a position.

...you seriously think Floyd is worried? LOL

well said with no hate towards anyone.

So floyd doesn't want to fight mosley, williams, pacquiao or cotto. Then who the hell is he going to fight?

Andre berto? He is hardly a top PPV fighter. As much as i respect floyds skills inside the ring, outside the ring he's a complete clown!

then why does Mosley want to fight Berto?

[Jiddu Dali]

OH WE ALL SEE THE TRUTH ON SEPT 19 MOSLEY CHALLEGED YOUR BOY FACE TO FACE LIKE A REAL MAN DOES AND INSTEAD OF STEPPING UP TO THE CHALLENGE TO PROVE WHOM THE BEST WELTERWEIGHT WAS,YOUR GUY TRIES BEATING UP ON MAX KELLERMAN AND LEAVES IN DISGRACE FROM THE RING,WE ALL SAW the truth between the studdering and the fear all over frauds ****** ugly face, YOUR NOT BLIND WITH HATE YOUR JUST BLIND TO NOT SEE THAT. studdering and excuses excuse after excuse as to why he wont face the best in his weight class. typical fraud fan its the money ,well ten years ago blah blah blah.its the ppvs its this its that yeah u-huh not even u buy it dude save it for yourself maybe someday youll actually believe it.

the TRUTH is that Mosley testified infront of the Grand Jury and admitted he took steroids/performance enhancing drugs

[realheavyhands]

You obviously not too bright which is why you picked that username.Ofcourse he`s waiting for the Cotto/Pacquaio winner.You think he`s gonna leave all that money on the table?He don`t want to look desperate.

And he does`nt need Mosley, Floyd Legacy is sealed.Floyd been calling out Mosley for years.Floyd aint nobodies b*tch,he`s is not gonna wait around for people to make up their mind to fight him.And if Mosley did not desrespect him at the Marquez fight Floyd would have probably fought him next.



Ya`ll could call him whatever ya`ll want to call him cause at the end of the day he`s well paid and all ya`ll gonna do is ***** all day"Floyd fights no one.Stop sucking his ****.

WHOA WHOA WHOA...Your right about waiting for cotto pac winner .. but mayweathers legacy is nowhere near sealed.. He wouldnt fight margarito and now he wont fight mosely.. floyd knows who he can beat. at the time when they were suppsed to fight he thought he could beat mosely ..but right now hes not sure.

"Q: Shane talked heavy smack recently, did u peep that? Whatu think bout what he had to say?



FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR: On Mosley, first off, coming from a known steroid user he ain't even allowed to open his mouth about me. When it comes to money, he really ought to shut his mouth up. I made more money in 2007 than he has in his whole. Him saying we could make money together is ignorant. And that was just two fights. When I say he ain't no PPV attraction, that's a fact not an opinion. He ain't never been able to take his career to the next level and when I wanted to fight his punk a$$ he had a toothache. Those are the facts, next question."
