    Mayweather-Mosley: Boxing's most expensive charade will indeed happen on May 1st.

    Based on Floyd Mayweather Jnr' statement,

    "What people don't know about the sport of boxing. In a fighter's career, a fighter starts off good and he's good until the end of his career or a fighter starts off good and then goes downhill towards the end of his career. A fighter doesn't start off like Manny Pacqauio, just ordinary, and then once he gets over the age of 25 he becomes extraordinary fighter. It just doesn't work like that in this sport of boxing",

    considering that Shane Mosley is 38 years old, it implies that Shane Mosley is a over-the-hill, shop-worn, punched ticket fighter.

    Therefore, based on what he said, it can be said that he opted out of the Pacquiao fight because he regards Pacquiao to be "an extraordinary fighter", and instead chose to fight Shane Mosley, a fighter "going downhill at the end of his career".

    So, why give Mayweather credit in facing Mosley when he himself discredited his opponent? Based on Mayweather's pronouncements, I beg the question, what glory is there if he beat Mosley?

    To me, it's either Mayweather suffers from delusions of grandeur, or discredits Mosley to lay the groundwork to boxing's most expensive staged fight. Was he merely reading from a script?

    Is Mayweather-Mosley fight going to be the biggest charade in boxing history? We'll only know when the first bell rings!

          When it comes to charades, Freddie Roach and Bob Arum have it on lock.

          "Shane came to the gym twice to ask me to let him fight Manny," Roach says. "I told him no both times, and both times for the same two reasons: First, there isn't enough money there, and second, you're too good a fighter."

            That's the dumbest statement from Floyd yet. He acts like Manny wasn't doin **** before he hit 25. Before these PED allegations, the excuse from Pac haters were:

            1. Diaz is a bum
            2. DLH was weight drained
            3. Hatton and Cotto are shot

            Now, all of a sudden these wins were extraordinary so he MUST be on PEDs. Which is it?

              The truth is Floyd Mayweather is very jealous of Manny Pacquiao career and his fans his his follower. Floyd has nothing good to say about Manny. I'm sure it hurts Floyd and his fans alot with Manny winning all these awards left and right and there's nothing they can do about it.

                I have to agree with Mayweather. Is really weird what is going on with Pacquiao. I mean from losing to midgets like Torrecampo to destroying WW's like 60 pounds heavier from were Pacquiao started boxing.
