    Will he lack courage, pride, dignity, and heart, when he puts a whooping on ya boy?

      But learn this. If a fighter starts to critic another fighter for doing something he does as much as any other why don't he just shuts the hell up?
      .

          KoBoy,

          I'm uncertain about your familiarity with the definition of "shameless". It is not synonymous with all the other stuff you are throwing in.

          Question: does it make you feel better about yourself to be aggressive and call people names? Nobody is doing that to you. Act like an adult.

            You're not getting the point, but here you go. I'll let someone else explain it to you if they like.



            Reminds me of this.

                While he has generally refused to speak about the issue, I think that this older video provides A LOT of insight about what FMJ was thinking about making 144.

                This interview is very telling. The key discussion about weight starts at 1:20. But you can start from the beginning to get conteaxt.






                "If you've been off for a year and a half, and then try to take off the weight, you get fatigued".

                This is why I believe Floyd was gaming the system all along. Right, wrong or otherwise.


                Floyd Mayweather isn't one to mince words, but when it comes to discussing matters ahead of his clash with Juan Manuel Marquez, Money has been keeping mum.


                Back in July:

                When asked if he would have a problem making 143 pounds, Mayweather, who estimated his weight at 149 or 150 during the call, said, "I'm not weighing 143. This is a welterweight fight. Whatever I come in weighing, that's what I come in weighing, but I don't have to weigh 143. I don't know where you heard those rumors from."

                Thanks, guys.
                We this We that ... you know what..

                WE ALL KNOW YOU ARE TRASH

                  Actually it's not name calling, when it's a fact. There are actuall Floyd, Pac, Cotto nuthuggers. It's a fact at any sport. If you're not one, why so mad. You're the one acting like a child. Did I hurt your feelings, little boy?

                    As I have said, I perceive the legacy of FMJ to already be etched. For the good, bad or otherwise.

                    When someone reaches the pinnacle of the sport, they typically switch over to The Paper Chase.

                    Oscar's last few fights are Mayweather, Pac and Forbes. Not exactly behemoths.

                    Hopkins' last few fiights are Ornelas, Calzaghe, Pavlik and Wright. @ guys moving up a division, two guys moving up TWO divisions.

                    Quite frankly, i am much more interested in seeing big events, than I am in seeing "competitive" fights. How did JuanMa-Mtagwa benefit the sport? That was FOTY-candidate, right? It should be all over ESPN, right?

                    ..and my business benefits by the big events.

                      If I'm a nuthugger then it goes for any fighter in my top 3 or top 5...

                      And I'm not interested in your posts...

                      Its clear you don't like Floyd but you can't question his courage and heart...the man's jumped up to fight stronger men and has fought injured before...
