"Our condolences go out to Berto and his family because that is the human side of this. Everyone is talking about us making a fight with Mosley, but Floyd wants people to know that his prayers -- all of ours -- are with Berto. But he also wants people to know that he is ready to fight Mosley. That's the fight he wants more than anything. And Floyd has instructed me and Al [Haymon, Mayweather's other adviser] to make the biggest fight possible. We will be talking with [Golden Boy CEO] Richard [Schaefer]. Floyd against Shane is the biggest fight in boxing right now that can be made."

Most cats simply don't know how fighters think and feel (especially Mayweather)... I can tell you 100% that Mayweather wanted Mosley a$$ bad after Mosley called him out during his interview... but he is a business man as well and knew that Pacquiao is the mega fight so he went for that...

I'm pretty sure that Mayweather wants Mosley as bad as Mosley wants Mayweather

don't let the boxing media fool you. If you have followed these two fighters, you will know that they have been wanting to fight each other. At 135, I think the fight would have been better and more competitive. Floyd wanted to fight Shane as recently as 2006, Shane has been calling Floyd out for some time now. History shows that THEY have been wanting to fight each other.

he TRIED to make the Pac fight happen.....the dude Manny wouldn't agree to the type of testing that would assure that BOTH fighters were clean and NOT cheating.....it was Manny who refused......but thats old news......Floyd needs a good legitimate opponent....someone who can ACTUALLY win the fight.......Shane fits the script better than Manny IMO!!......how will Manny look after Shane agrees to those SAME tests?!?......suspect, thats how......even more suspect than now!!

good post.

If floyd was really preparing to fight on march the 13th he needed a great opponent to be able to sell the fight, because he knows moslty everyone would be watching the pac vs clottey fight. But I dont believe what Mayweather says untill he finally steps in the ring with Mosley. Lets see what happens and how much of a split will he ask for.

Your logic is like someone who TRIED to make a baby, but put a condom on so he didn't get an STD even though his wife's a ******.

I agree, he didn't want Mosley in Sept, Oct, Nov, or December But he wants him now?

Floyd always says he wants every quality fights out there. then ends up sabotaging it lol

so he sabatoged the Pac fight by requesting RANDOM blood test & Pac denied?
