Can Floyd Handle the Pressure?

[Mayabang]

Ball is on Money's court...Manny did his part and won his fight convincingly last night and Money/Roach called out Floyd infront of 50,000 people and Roach made it clear that if Floyd wanna fight, just fight and don't act like the commision.

It's alot of Pressure on Floyd right now. He has yet to do his part and 'must' beat Mosley, which we all know is not an easy part like Pac's. His fight is still couple months away, so chances are whenever he promote his fight via interview, he's gonna be bombarded with questions regarding Pac's performance against Clottey, Pac saying he's not ready, etc.

I wonder what's going on Floyd's head right now.
Thoughts?

I think he focuses on Mosley. He knows beating Mosley will be a bigger statement than Pac beating Clottey.

Yo, they put Fraud in his PLACE last night! They let it out infront of the world so now everyone knows it will be on Fraud to accept much like it always has been but Fraud's excuses are legendary. I honestly don't think Fraud will accept the fight unless he understands he will lose his zero by taking it. He's going to want a nice retirement package put into the contract because that's the end of his career!

You mean dont act like the commision and ask for Catch weights? and $10,000,000 penalties? Things that are not required by them.

No matter which one of them lose, I'm sure $40 million or so will help ease the pain. If this **** doesn't happen, they're both to blame.

No, the weight was part of a contract agreement that wasn't too crazy. Anything between 140-147lbs is a WW fight. So...it can be 145lbs and still be called a WW fight. 147lbs is the limit...I don't remember 10 million dollar penalty but w/e. What Fraud wants is making up his own rules that have never been done before.

Last time I checked throughout the history of boxing, weight penalties and catchweights have been agreements between camps.

Drug testing has historically been the commissions duty.

Yeah, but that's my point, it could be hard to focus on Mosley when he already knows beforehand that Pac is already waiting for him. Plus, you know that reporters will be reporters and Pac/May subject is too big not to bring up, doesn't matter if your main focus is Mosley or not.

The Commission has its rules already in place, for weight penalties and weight limits, how dare Boxers think all throughout history they are bigger then the sport, follow the rules in place.
