Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Mosley: Atlas, Steward Break it Down

No need to pretend to be a pacfan. Just say what you want about Manny. A pacfan or a fan of any fighter for that matter would not automatically think the way you are now towards Manny just because he didnt agree to all of Floyd's demands.

Just say it loud. You hate Manny and you found a nice piece of attacking point the moment Sr. started his roid accusations.

Only in America now that you are presumed guilty unless proven otherwise. Only in America would people put more weight on a family's opinions who are known to have criminal records than those of the actual test results.

If Manny is on PEDs, then ALL boxers must be on PEDs, including Floyd as all have passed the NSAC's drug testings in the past.

So let us give cheers for Floyd, for being the best hypocrite of all time in boxing! ('I got brittle hands, I need Xylocaine to be able to punch without getting hurt'-Floyd, doesn't that sound like a PED to you?)

i love manny for the fact he comes to fight and knock his opponents out.
he is very entertaining. i respect him.
but in an age in sports where these peds, hgh and steroids have foiled and ruined a lot of sports through cheating, then i have no reason not to think that pacman is hiding something.
it has nothing to do with doing what floyd wants, or being manipulated by floyd. i dont even like floyd. he is annoying and racist, but he does have a point. manny should have just manned up, taken all of the tests, which floyd would have taken, whipped his ass, then made fun of him afterward for the whole debacle.
think about it man, 40 million dollars for one fight, take random blood testing, which olympic athletes and riders of the tour de france do on the day they ride for 10 hours up and down mountains without and detriment from blood testing.
seems like neither one really wanted the fight or it would have got done.
either way we the fans, who pay these guys checks, are missing out.

This would have been an unbelievable fight at 135 due to what a physical specimen Mosley was and what a complete fighter Mayweather was, but that was never going to happen. Mosley never even fought at 140, he had too much trouble making 135 which is why a fight with Mayweather never happened. Shane went right from lightweight to welterweight with ease.

No, Mosley was like "greased lightning" when at 135, and carried his punch right up to and including rd 12. And, although he eventually outgrew the division, I'm sure he had at least 8-10 title defences, and was deep into his 20's before going to 147. All KO's (I think)

I think perhaps Mosely could have a quick warm-up fight at the end of january. It surely wouldnt do him no harm!

Fan or whatever. Manny Pacquiao ducked Floyd Mayweather Jr.

i agree with you on everything. i started out as a floyd fan and gradually disliked him more and more. since ive been watching manny he is all about entertaining the fans and trying to knock his opponent out, plain and simple. as a fan i know floyd goes into fights not even thinking about trying to hurt or knock his opponent out but to only try to win and not take any risk in the process. i wish pac had agreed to the tests but i really think it came down to ego's and not wanting to budge for a guy who was trying to tarnish his reputation. i really think had he agreed something else would have come up from the mayweather camp to stop the fight. I HOPE THE NSAC LOOKS INTO THEIR TESTING METHODS AND MAKES A DECISION TO USE WHATEVER IS THE BEST METHOD TO CATCH STEROID USERS.

I totally agree with you GRUSTLER. I hope this fight will happen. now people can see:

1. Manny v Colttey (who?). another Cherry picking, how can you fight someone that has been defeated by the fighter who lost to you by devastating KO

2. Floyd V Mosley : great fight!

Please ppl be honest as a boxing fan, i believe that the fight we want to watch is Floyd v mosley and not Manny v who???

unfortunately for floyd your actions have consequences and he has been notorious for finding ways to avoid the best in his division. he could have fought margarito, cotto, mosley, and most recently pac and these people wouldn't be saying **** like this. but for whatever reason this fights have never happened and it's not these guys to blame cause they all seem to find ways to fight each other. floyd is the one who has never fought any of them. i am a hater cause i just want to see him fight the best cause thats what he should be doing, not fighting LITTLE LIGHTWEIGHTS IN BORING FIGHTS.

do you realize how dumb you are?

1. clottey had a very close and controversial fight with cotto which many thought he won.

2. Cotto quite easily outboxed a younger, more active and closer to his prime Mosley a couple of years ago.

3. So Pac destroyed Cotto and Cotto decisively beat Mosley so why is Floyd fighting a guy who got outboxed by a guy who got destroyed by Pac.

4. Not to mention mosley won't have fought in 16 months. Clottey>Mosley by your dumbass standards. hahahaha

LoL, the boxing communities IQ is so low it falls for so much BS. You think Floyd is facing Mosley BY CHOICE?! Floyd will be facing Mosley because he has no other dance partner that can draw enough to get a nice paycheck, PERIOD. Honestly I don't even think Floyd wants Mosley but he's kind of trapped right now. Mosley just had this withdraw issue at a time where Floyd has no partner. So you have a WW looking for an opponent, well, there's a freed up WW right now. Makes sense?! Well although Floyd doesn't prefer fighting guys in his division, too much talk is against him on ducking opponents right now so I think he will go through with it. If this would have happened about 2 weeks earlier, I bet Mosley would be fighting Pac in March instead.

At least Mayweather isn't asking Mosley to come in at 142 like Pacquiao's team did. And Pacquiao would never fight Mosley. And yes, Mayweather is fighting Mosley by choice. Do you think he cares what low IQ boxing fans like you think when it comes to his decisions?
