Comments Thread For: Photos: Floyd Mayweather Jr. Training Camp For Mosley

[Tweezy316]

You know it I'm kinda young so when I got into boxing like around 9 Moses had just won or was defending the IBF belt it was a black guy can't remember his name.Moses beat the breaks of this guy and drop him with a left then a right to his body.It was something to behold he is my favorite fighter I like alot of umm but he is my favorite.I also followed Floyd and knew he was something special from the moment I watch him.You just don't see skill like May has.I just always was disappointed with who he fought.After the JLC fight he was disappointing for awhile and then he fought Hoya.Then i remember why I liked him so much.Then Hatton which I was mad at because I knew he had no shot(But Ricky went balls out did'int he lol)Now this and like with Hoya he has a chance to make us remember why we loved him in the lighter weight classes.But you must admit Chop chop Judah Baldy Gatti i knew none of these fighters had a chance.But I'm already remembering why I love to watch May when he sign the fight cause I started replaying both these guys fight in my mind and getting pump for this epic fight.Oh and Jlc and Jesus Chavez are in no way near the caliber of fighter that Shane is and you know it.

Rome don't do this to yourself. Castillo and Chavez are no where near the caliber of fighter that Shane WAS. He is no longer that same guy. He just isn't. Look Floyd took off almost 2 years and came back and he was great. Shane is also a lot older and is coming back against a fighter in my opinion that will be the his toughest opponent yet. Younger, faster, and in better shape and doesn't have as much wear and tear from all the battles that Shane has had. Not to say Floyd hasn't been in battles but everybody knows Floyd is the least hit boxer so he'll be able to fighter a lot longer if he chooses too. I hope he doesn't tho. I hope he gets out at the right time because Roy Jones Jr destroyed his legacy imo.

What does the training camp have to do with him donating a few rusty bikes??
I ain't famous and I've given hundreds of bikes out to poor kids... What's the big Phuken deal?
Build schools and hospitals and crap like that then you would have accomplished something... BIKES.. WTF! anyone does that.
I hope Mosley breaks that piece of crap in half!!

its not just bikes. floyd does a lot of charitable work in vegas and in grand rapids michigan. he always he has never received recognition for all he does. and he never gripes about the lack of positive coverage he does not get for this type of work. people look at his promotonal persona and equate it with his real world persona.

I have no hard feelings toward you aztek just have to say a few things.Listen what's going on since when do we give a damn about a mans personal life and what he does out of the ring?Do you know Floyd personally?Does anyone who bad mouth him now him personally or are ya'll just talking bout what you see him portray?Do you think Pac is really what he Portrays to be?If so get real none of these fighters/athletes are.Examples Jordan,Tiger,LT, That's just to name a few.So please give the man some respect he wants to give to poor kids that's something commendable.Pac wants to give to his country great more power too him.Listen we love these fighters because of their skills in the ring.Not because their are favorite actor's on are favorite soaps.May is doing a smart thing which is playing to the crowd.He knows people love to hate him so what he did was smart he capitalize on the hate he received and turn your hate into crispy bills.I'm not a big fan of May **** talking but you know what he gets the world hyped for the fight.I'll tell you one thing it was better then Pac and Clottey giving each other that gay as grin.Anyway Pac Mosley and the Money Man are great for boxing because of what they do in the ring.NOT WHAT THEY DO OUT OF IT.This is not all the days of are lives.Give Floyd some ***** credit damn.

as usual rome good post. "this is not days of our lives" tttoooooooooo funny!!!

I don't know what the Mayweather's are saying about Shane in interviews, but the respect is obvious. Mayweather is known for having intense training camps, and the fact that this one is more intense than usual says a lot.

ofcourse.......anyone who thinks floyd will walk through Mosley is on crack.....right now he is getting the ultimate respect from Floyd as by all accounts he is training like a demon. He even said in an interview he would get old school in this camp ang go back to chopping down trees.

When a fighter is training the way floyd is now that is the biggest compliment he can pay his opponent.

Umm Some of that also had to do with(I'm catch some heat for this but F it) Cherry picking as well come-on you know it's true.

name me one fighter that has not been accused of cherry picking in this day and age!!

hey its what drives me to get up and go to all my jobs every day!!!

I have to agree with you on the RJJ he was finish after the tarver fights IMO.Should have retired after the Tito fight.It's funny the thing you see as a weakness in that Mosley has battles and months or a year off I see as a plus for him going into this fight.He has been off by the time they fight for about a year and some months.But alot of fighters when they get older do this.How long in between Pav did Hopkins fight again?How long before Mosley Margas did Mosley fight.Hoya did the same thing and even Floyd does it.When you get older you need more time to let your body heal.Look at Marquez he is still healing.Now on to Mosley Battles this is going to be key.May never fought a guy who can get to him like Mosley can and will.When the exchanges start to be landed I fully know that Shane is going to be still there from his battles.With May being so hard to hit and IMO not always fighting up to his level how do we know how he will be taking them shots?

- FMJ foundation regularly gives toys + presents to kids on holidays

- Feed Las Vegas homeless weekly.

- Youth outreach programs.

- Floyd picked up the entire 200K bill so Golden Gloves could be held in Michigan.


....the list goes on and on.....




oh and just FYI - Pac is a PED user

just gullible people. All these people are just losers who have fallen for a marketing campaign......whenever you fall for a marketing campaign of any kind...whether it's just buying a good or service you may not otherwise it's weak mindedness. That is what all these haters and bandwagoners have in common....they cannot think for themselves. Money Mayweather is a marketing gimmick which Floyd plays perfectly.


I was a fan of Floyd when all he was selling was his boxing skills.
