    He is his own boss because he makes his own decisions and he decides who he fights. His trainer or promoter does not tell him who to fight and when he's going to fight.

    He uses GBP for a small fee because Mayweather Promotions is not a licensed promotion company.

    How many fighters can get a fight on HBO PPV without a big promotional company?

      Not to mention, they had to get it done and announced with about 8 weeks until the actual fight date.

      May-Mosley is not happening UNTIL MAY, which means that they have at LEAST until the 3rd or 4th week of Feb to announce it. Calm down, Mayweather-Mosley is a fight that boxingheads have been wanting for about 10 years now, whats a little more time??

      I don't even know why I responded in this thread.
      to get ur opinions heard.

      exactly my point. this fight is already a given. i dont see whats the hold up when the spotlights already shining down on floyd?

          I JUST told you why in my last post dude, but whatever.

          there is also a thing called negotiating too.

            is floyd tryin to cherrypick options out there that doesnt exist?
            dude shut up you act like Top Rank didn't have this already in motion PRIOR to the negotiations falling through

            IN FACT, if you are trying to prove how Mayweather didn't really want to fight after let me ask you this

            if that is indeed what you think then why is Mayweather still not with a set fight while Clottey literally agreed days after the deal was offer between Floyd and Manny?

            because lets be honest while Mayweather may not have fought a who's who of welters when has he truely been an ass at the negotiation table?

            link me to some because I can link you to PLENTY of Manny links where he was demanding more money

            in fact there was one on ESB and I know people question ESB but here is one from the LA Times

            Talks break down after fighters can't agree on a split of the purse for a proposed Dec. 6 bout.


            and another involving the Hatton fight

            so sorry but I know plenty of people who knew they had either Clottey or Foreman in the bullpen with the onus on Clottey because they had plans for Foreman being pitted against Cotto

                Blame Arum for not giving Floyd $10M to fight Hatton and Cotto.

                Mayweather is a business man. He left Arum and made $45 million in two fights.

                Styles make fights. I'm going to use your logic. Manny is a ducker because he ducked Yuri, Marquez, Mayweather, Mosley, and blood tests.

                Floyd cherrypicks his opponents and Manny weight drains his opponents.

                We told you why they're still negotiating, but since you are a Floyd hater and you're stubborn, you don't listen to anyone.
