Comments Thread For: Lack of Vision Hinders The Sport of Boxing

[WESS]

I never denied Mayweather's talent.

I don't hate Mayweather himself,I don't know him personnaly.

I just hate his behaviour wich is maybe one of the most annoying and scandalous in the history of the sport.

Most do and there is a reason for it. He gets paid to do what he does and that is being the "bad guy". Everyone understands that. Right?
As for the most "annoying and scandalous" lol, I'm sure there where and are plenty worse.

He "acts" more than you think.... He's a salesman. He speaks, people listen regardless if they agree with him or not.

The sport didn't go to shyt because of Mayweather. He brought back the hype and drama needed to "revamp" it. Now just because he wants to cause drama and "REQUEST" a test doesn't mean anything until the other guy denies to take these tests. Again everyone knows Mayweather is drama. Its expected. Right or wrong, its expected. Sales ploy. Its just when the other guy gets "selfish" and denies this MAJOR event from happening because his "SELFISH" feelings are hurt, then that's where the fans and the SPORT get hurt.

We're left with a court date and not a boxing fight date. All for "selfish" reasons. When your going to get paid this kind of money, feelings don't get involved only revenge in the ring. Not court. In the end who looks like the pu$$y? The one that wanted to fight in the ring or the one who wanted to fight in court? Selfish much?

That's probably the best article I've ever read on this site.

agreed...best one in at least a year.

I'm a Pac fan but I agree with this post.

I'm a Pac fan just as I'm a Mayweather fan. Both for different reasons.

As a die hard boxing fan ,I find this article is insightful and true .Its sad to see that the greatness that is to be this fight may never happen ,somethings are more valuable than money and should both fighters think about the fans they serve and dare to be great all the money in that world could not by their place in history that they would have carved out .

I was thinking the same exact thing.

How do you know Manny doesn't want the fight in the ring.
Your vision is one sided.Who is askin for something of pretty much unusual and maybe useless???
Both bitched.That's it.

Floyd needs Manny,Manny doesn't need Floyd,and I think it's obvious when you look at the negociations.
Manny's legacy is more than cemented.Floyd is the bigger man and like to fight shorties...

It's not about selfish feelings.There is a controversy roids because of May's camp.
It's a LOW BLOW.Period.
They know Manny isn't on roids.

I have a question for you my dude.

What people will say if Manny get outboxed by Floyd after being tested clean??

Style make fights??

No,
Manny was on juice against Cotto.That's what they will say.They put Manny in a lose,lose situation.Manny have to man up.But that's why Roach and Arum maybe don't want it now.

They ****ed up the fight.I hope CrackHead sr will have to pay a lot.

Mayweather is a salesman,he acts,but his personnality is really ****.

In the interview with RA,he isn't promoting a fight,he isn't acting,he's talkin and get exposed as a ******.
"you ride my ****".

Mayweather's main problem is,he thinks he's smart,he isn't.
He's ****** and uneducated,but at the same time,he thinks he's smarter than people,and that people will believe every bull****s he talks.

So people cant stand him.
His only response is "it's because I'm black,young and rich".
Well,sorry Floyd,Bryant and Bolt are black young and rich and people love them around the world except very few haters.

You are not smart because you can shoulder,it's because your uncle and father were teaching you since you are 5 years old.

Mayweather knows boxing a lot,but he knows nothing else.

I think Floyd would love to be loved as Manny and he's jealous.
That's why he's always bitchin about Manny,"he has been koed twice".I can't stand his behaviour and I didn't paid for JMM-May.I didn't.

golden boy promotions are a buncha amateurs compared to top rank. That's what happens when you have a taco vendor as your matchmaker & a sleaze bag banker as your CEO.

It became very clear that for selfish "my feelings" are hurt reasons that he or his team doesnt want to fight in the ring. Again, controverey IS expected when you deal with Mayweather. Its one of the MANY reasons his PPV sales are high. People pay to watch him and people pay to watch him lose. Its no lose situation for Mayweather when it comes to the money aspect of things. Reason he agreed to the 50/50 split when team Pac probably thought it would fall threw.

Think about it. Manny takes the test. Fight is on. How hard is the logic on that? Mayweather being right or wrong about the way he is doing business has nothing to do with team Pac being selfish and pulling the my feelings and legacy are at jeopardy.... which is BS. To the average person, denying these tests make you appear to be guilty. To the DIE HARD ******ed fans on this site who base emotions and feelings first are blind to what is really going on.

Again, if this was anyone but Mayweather involved it wouldn't be such a big deal. Imagine if this was Pac requesting the test and Mayweather didn't want to give into these "RANDOM" tests? Can you say outrage, along with you being PRO "random" test.

If the shoe was on the other foot the same Pac fans disagreeing with these tests would be all about them....

I'm only fair. Mayweather's expected to cause drama, it sells. Its up to Pac to settle it in the ring. NOT the court. Why can't he? He's the one that has the "GO" "NO GO" button...... Mayweather's already in the green to go.... Pac says OK the fight gets made. How hard is that to understand.....?

I'm a fan of Floyd, but I do agree with you. Floyd fighting JMM prevented some interesting fights involving JMM at 135 and 140.

Blame it on Scheafer and De La Hoya. They are the real *******. JMM would have had several exciting fights at 140. These guys ruined it all and put a huge dent in JMM's legacy.
