Comments Thread For: Mayweather's Adviser: Floyd Coming For All Top Welters

[AllEyesOpen]

Leonard Ellerbe, adviser to Floyd Mayweather Jr., says his fighter returned from retirement to clean house. Mayweather wants the big events and the big names at welterweight. He plans to start his quest with WBA champion Shane Mosley on May 1 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Mosley has signed the contract, which includes a rematch clause and calls for both fighters to take part in random drug tests. [Click Here To Read More]

Damn, Manny might be left out in the cold for at least 2 fight. At least Mayweather went after the best ww, and Mosley had the balls to undergo random blood tests. Should be a great fight.

I aint a *******,but if thinking floyd has apple pips for testicles for making ridiculous demands and fighting a forty year old dude instead makes me one in your eyes,then it is a badge I will wear with honour!

Now young man,how many of your total posts have been about floyd? High 80's mid 90% this surely makes you a ***** of the highest order! :gay:

Actually Im a huge fan of Mosley's and always thought that Mosley would be PBF's toughest fight until Mosley kept turning him down then when Mosley got outboxed by Cotto it was clear to me that PBF would shut him down. I was a Corrales fan when PBF fought him, boy was I wrong. PBF is the smartest, most accurate and best defensive fighter I've ever seen. Would he beat Ray Leonard or Hearns? Hell no but Manny, Shane, Cotto, etc? Easy money.

I wouldnt agree with mosley being a genuine 154 pounder, hes a 147 guy who should have stayed there and not tried to mix with the bigger boys and lose like he did

Pac v Mayweather would look like Duran v Leonard 1 IMO. Cutting through all the bs,I just vwant the fight to happen. No silly demands,no histrionics just get it on. The prize is far bigger than the money. Both men would transcend the sport and become worthy of being mentioned alongside the best names in history.(I think Pacs already there,but hey,just my opinion)

Right f.uckers! I'm off out. Have fun trashing each other!

[boxingfan76]

now that all the top welters have all taken each other out and done all the fighting for him , hes coming to clean up whats left of the welterweight division, where was he when margs,williams,clottey,cintron,martinez,santos,qui ntana,cottoand countless others and all the other deadly fighters were around, what greatness really, u have a 38 year old champ and pacyow.way ta go floyd or should i say fraud jr?

[barok12]

Elerbe, Fyi your fighter Floyd jr at this time is already thinking how to abort this fight- a fight that is 60 pct he will loose - and settle for 10M instead of 40M fighting Pacquiao.

I want the fight to happen too but a fighter should not be allowed to cheat and if he's clean then he's a dumb ass for not proving it but the reality is he's not clean. Yea people want the fight just like the Margarito fight and look what happen. I totally support PBF on this. I've been in the ring and I know what it's like. Why fight a man you know is doping unless he comes clean. What better time to come clean than the biggest fight in boxing history.

This is great news and what I've wanted to hear for awhile now. I have been a harsh critic of Jr since his campaign at WW. I have always said that he was the bomb from 135 and below, but at 147, not so much. Now we get a chance to see him in potentially great fights in the division vs the people that his fans and critics have wanted him to face...

[leonthegee]

154 is where he should have been fighting since 2007 since *****s claim he beat the #1 154lber for a world title in his 5th weight division. Makes him a full fledged junior welter. Instead of fighting junior welters and lightweights at welterweight.

shut up nip u dont know what your talking about. floyd weighed in at 150 when he fought oscar. why the hell would he stay at 154 when he couldnt even weigh in at the weight limit?

[FLY TY]

The only reason he is taking this fight(assuming he signs) is because he had nowhere else to go.

he could've fought anybody.....from malinaggi to bradley, from nate campbell to kermit cintron. what he has done, is taken the BIGGEST FIGHT OPTION left for him. you dudes should know by now, he looks for the biggest fight. doesn't matter WHO it is. let all this "ducking" nonsense be put to rest now.

floyd coming for all top welter's??...lol...who? the ones who were champs 3,4 years ago are all gone,they were the ones fighting the best,,,floyd wants to do it now that they are gone...who is he gonna fight,the ibf champ?..whoever he is...thats floyd for you

yea, bad comment by ellerbe. the WW division consists of mayweather, pacquiao, mosley, and berto is on the outskirts.....that is it.

what i think ellerbe is inferring, is that floyd wants pacquiao next, without actually bringing pac's name up.
