Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Mosley Can't Get Mad at Mayweather

[Pullcounter]

Golden Boy Promotions is probably hoping Floyd wins. Mayweather Promotions isn't licensed to promote fights yet, so his banner is all smoke and mirrors right now. Golden Boy is promoting Mayweather. So they hope he wins so the big money can keep rolling in. Why else would they scrap Shane's Jan. 30th card just because Berto pulled out. Shane is just another bump in the road for the Golden Boy money truck to run over.

GBP wins no matter who wins.

GBP promotes both guys. no matter how much floyd says he doesn't work for GBP, he does. dlh is his boss.

[Rome-By-Ko]

this is a dumb statement---i've fought for years, and i know boxing styles like the back of my hand, and the way to beat floyd is outhinking him when it comes to timing your movement and punches and agression---i don't see mosley winning more than 3 rounds, if that---mosley can listen to oscar all he want, who really lost to floyd by ud---max kellerman said it best---9 rounds to 3 and the rounds oscar won, he barely won and outlanded floyd---oscar always predicts against floyd until he dominates the guy oscar picks to win by a landslide---and floyd will dominate shane---shane fights very stiff but he fights hard, and this will make it look like he is competing with floyd, but floyd fights well against guys who fight hard and throw many punches, because floyd uses their aggression against them--that's what he did to oscar, floyd cruised in that fight, and oscar fought very hard, and started to use his aggression against him, landing punchhes through his combos and offsetting oscar very well---shane fights like a robot, but he fights with confidence until he gets tagged consistently coz shane will leave himself open for hooks and jabs---and when shane tries to jab to floyd's body, he will get countered by floyd----coz when shane throws the jab to the body, his position is so bad that even the slowest punches has a great chance of landing over it---floyd will landand step away at the same time, only to reposition himself to land another punch that shane won't expect--and he will keep shane off balance and disrupt his timing--this is what floyd is the master of---shane will lose this fight bad---then manny is next to get another loss on his record---oscar will once again have to eat his words once his partner loses to floyd bad---and oscar will be 0 for 3 in predicting who will beat floyd---he was wrong with hatton, jmm, and will be wrong with shane also---oscar couldn't get the job done and gbp almost robbed floyd---we all know when oscar jabbed, he landed only a few of them, and lost confidence in it, only to explain that he didn't know why he stopped using it----this guy is a professional and turned pro before floyd did and couldn't explain why he stopped using the only punch that seemed to work for him that night----he always says he woulda coulda and shoulda did this and that in the fight with mayweather jr, but he didn't---because he wasn't skilled enough to beat floyd and neither is shane and neither is manny----and clottey---

oscar says he found it easy in the mayweather fight---but he lost, and the rounds he did lose, he lost one sidedly---he tired himself out and that's because floyd landed punches that tired oscar out and offset his rhythm enough to get himself more fatigued and move in directions he didn't want to move in--thus having to move more than he wanted to, and as soon as oscar dropped his guard for one second, he was nailed consistently by floyd, bucked by floyd, could have been knocked out in the 12th round when floyd staggered him, had floyd pushed the action more---oscar and hopkins can say what shane'll do all they want, floyd is going to dictate this fight and shane's movement--and he will be stronger than shane in this fight also, i truly believe floyd will hurt shane---he will throw more combos at shane, and we have to remember something about how floyd throws his punches---he throws them perfect, very sharp, form many angles, and while feinting---he counters while feinting, he lands jabs and hooks and right hand leads while feinting and i wouldn't be surprised if floyd turned southpaw on shane and hurts him when he does it---this is floyd's fight folks---shane is in for a long night as well as goldenboy promotions---wait and see---

I'm going to save this post after the fight i'll back at you.So you can explain why he lost .

You're drunk if you think Mosley, Cotto, and Margs wouldn't mop the floor with JMM. I happen to think that Mosley could wipe the floor with Pac if they ever meet at 147. Some fighters can't scale the weight classes like others. Marquez is one of them. If Mayweather cared about cleaning up the sport he would have gone to the commission to make it a requirement for EVERY fight, not just his. Are the fighters under his banner undergoing Olympic style bloodtesting? No. This is all a charade. Is Amir Khan doing random bloodtesting for his fight against Malignaggi? No. Because Golden Boy and Mayweather don't have "good hearted" reasons for requiring it for Manny. No one was talking about steroids until Mayweather Sr. said something now all of a sudden people are crusaders. Give me a break. If you can't see the forest through the trees, that's your problem. These people care about themselves and nothing more. They're no better than politicians. Talk the talk to get you on their side, then flip you the bird after they get what they want. Oh, and Marion Jones NEVER tested positive either. You can never catch everyone. The drug makers are ALWAYS one step ahead of the testers. OH, AND THAT P4P TALK IS ALL CRAP. IF HOPKINS FOUGHT MARQUEZ AND BEAT WHO WOULD GIVE HIM CREDIT?? NO ONE! Pound 4 Pound rankings are a joke in my honest opinion. There are weight classes for a reason.

What would a fighter that gets no respect already get from going to the commission? The perfect platform for making his case was in negotiations for the biggest fight in boxing history. This is perfect timing. Just because you can never catch anyone doesn't mean they shouldn't try. I agree with you on the P4P ratings. There's a whole lot of favoritism ad politics going on there.

ENOUGH OF THIS ****

time to be f ing honest.

floyd fought near 155-160 lbs agains a jmm who is best at 135 and
puffed up to 143 for a ww fight and big pay day.


TOTAL MISMATCH no matter how you try to twist the ****.

I'm still not buying it. Floyd has beat several fighters that we're bigger than him in the ring. A good boxer can find a way to win. Floyd didn't knock him out and he didn't lean on him so how did his size give him the advantage? When Castillo came in the ring heavier than Floyd he tried to lean on him for his advantage. Did you see Floyd doing any of that? NO Floyd used his athletic ability to dodge all Marquez's shots and counter him. If being bigger in size gives you that kind of advantage than I agree with everything you said. If not you better rethink it.

[Sugar Q]

You're logic is flawed. I never heard de la Hoya complain about Mosley juicing either. In fact, he brought him on as partner. Couldn't have cared too much to do business with him. Yet Mayweather is requiring Mosley to do random blood testing.You keep talking about money. Stop it. You sound like a gold digging groupie. Marquez sold himself out for a paycheck and now is trying to front like he has dignity with Amir Khan. They turned down that fight because "they were being treated like an opponent." Lol. Mayweather treated him the same way. So what's different? Nothing.

Dude you still poppin smack but aint saying a damn thing. Let me give you the facts and it dont matter what the *** you think. Mayweather is the biggest draw in boxing like it or lump it. If you knew anything about boxing you wouldn't agree with some dude saying crazy **** like PBF weighs in @155-160 when the dude never weighs more than 150 on fight night. Most of his fights he weighs around 148 why? because he is a natural 140 pounder. Floyd never weighed 155 in his whole career for a fight! Do your homework and stop poppin pointless **** cause thats just what your doing. Marquez called out Floyd cause he was trying to force Manny into a 3rd fight not for no payday. Dude wanted a 3rd fight and was chasing Manny.

If you cared about cleaning up the sport, you would go to the commission that oversees the ENTIRE sport so that it's consistent. The Olympics require the same kind of testing for everyone, regardless of the sport the athletes compete in. Track and field competitors take the same tests as swimmers. Why? Consistency and uniformity. Requesting testing for the Pac fight does nothing for the sport because it's only one fight. Again, Golden Boy said they wanted to clean up the sport just like Mayweather said, but none of their fighters except Mosley are undergoing random testing. Marquez isn't, Khan isn't, etc. When you truly want to make change, you want to create uniformity. Is Tim Bradley going to do random testing for his next fight? Doubt it. But Shaw was on the Manny hate wagon talking about if Pac wants to fight Bradley he wants random testing. So now all of sudden Bradley doesn't have to get tested because he's not fighting Pac. If Shaw was requesting testing for the right reasons, Bradley would be getting tested in all of his future fights, regardless of the opponent. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Ask yourself this, Is Mayweather requiring that all of the fighters on the PPV card get random testing done? If not, why not, since he supposedly wants to clean up the sport. All fighters should be going through the grinder, not just the stars.
