De La Hoya: Mayweather-Mosley fight 'not too far' from getting done

[Brandish]

the fight is getting done just not in the public..it was obvious pac and his people were running from a floyd fight..they had multiple contradictions going into the negotiations and had even more coming out of them..


the pac floyd fight was never in the cards..roach thought it was too soon after cotto and wanted a 8 week trainiing camp to prepare pac for floyd..but they miscalculated clottey is going to beat pac senseless unless he takes dive money which is a real possibility.

the big wigs at HBO were in a quandry with the mosley berto fight going to take place then the earthquake happens and mana drops from heaven you now have a fight that will generate over 100 million in revenue in floyd vs mosley.

i am projecting upwards of 2 million ppv buys if they promotoe the fight right...you have another sugar ray vs tommy hearns type fight in the making..

so calm down let them finalize the numbers and get the contracts signed so we can get ready for a huge press tour in feb covering 6 cities:

1. New York
2. Chicago
3. Los angeles
4. Atlanta
5. Boston
6. London


this fight will do far better revenue wise then the hatton fight..since mosley has been on HBO for over ten years and is a recognizable name coming off a dominat victory over another champion...it will be awesome so grab a brew get your fight parties together and lets enjoy the fight.

The burden is on Mayweather on this one. Mosley has NEVER seen a payday like Mayweather can bring. Mosley will bend over backwards to make this fight. On a draw type level, this would be the biggest fight Mosley has ever participated in.

With the Mayweather Pac dealings, it was two similarly popular attractions (though Mayweather probably is better known here in the states) duking it out, so I didn't assign much blame to Mayweather for that falling through, especially after the "blood tests 24 or less days from a fight weaken me" thing from Pac, and then finding out Pac took a blood test 8-9 days before the HATTON fight, in which he was practically superman.

I'm not even gonna get my hopes up for this fight happening......not after all the time and energy I put into getting fired up over the possibility of Mayweather-Pacquiao happening. I don't have much faith that we're gonna get to see the fights we really want. We'll see....

[Easy-E]

this cannot be true. numerous *******s have made threads that told me Floyd is balking and the fight is off....

Because there are more particulars to iron out. Mosley won't just nod his head to any stipulation like Clottey did.

When the fight happens, I am gonna reach my hand through the monitor and smack the fuck outta you. G-G-G-G-G-G-G-UNIT!!!

Here are some of the people on Mosley's resume whom he has faced when at the top of their game. ...the man has gotten paid.

Cotto
De La Hoya (twice)
Vargas (twice)
Winky Wright
Margarito

He has leverage, not to mention the WBA title. Again, **** needs to be worked out. Frankly, i think is little disrespectful to compare Clottey to Mosley.
