why not put the pressure on the commissions?

[IMDAZED]

lol you really are so far up floyds ass. so how many fights does floyd do in a year? 1? how many more fights do you think he does before he retires again? 2? do you think he cares for the other 100 or so fights happening monthly w/o OST or the fights that will happen after he retires? NO. he unretired for the money since he was in trouble, not legacy, not for the fans and NOTHING else. did you really believe all the MLK bull he spewed out months ago?

Ok... and?

pac's already on board the commission rules...unless you are considering somebody to have higher authority than the commission.

Well Pac likes to bend & break them as much as Floyd. So I guess they're both on board then.

[IMDAZED]

LOL!!! When he compares his stand to civil rights leaders who "did" go around the country then yes I do expect him to champion it for other fights otherwise it's hypocrisy.

Yup. Pretty silly to compare it to the Civil Rights Movement.

Speaking of which, I wonder if Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat because she was tired or because she knew she was about to champion a whole movement that would change the USA forever?

Luckily for the fans big money fights = fights the fans want to see.

im hyped for the mosley fight, but it took an earthquake to make it happen.

floyd was looking at a matthew hatton or campbell fight before this.

Is that right. Well it has been shown the COMMISSION has its own rules for weight penalties. But Manny and his team still went over the COMMISSION and put they own weight penalty in the contract.

So what is the difference between asking for drug testing outside the commission and asking for a weight penalty outside of the commission?

Here is my point, if you really felt a change needed to be made and you were in a position to make that change than yes you would speak to commissions, you would talk to other boxers to help you champion your cause. is any of this happening? No because as usual Floyd is only concern about himself in the matter.

You wanna see someone who really championed a policy that was wrong with sports look no futher than Chris Nowinski. A former Collage Football player that changed the policy of the NFL related to their view on concusions. This is championing a cause.

All of Floyds hyperbole is nothing more than a distraction from his own selfishness in the matter.

The thing is what your arn't understanding is how ***ing ****** you have to be to compare Rosa parks and civil rights issues to drug testing for a sporting event.



When you compare the two you trivialize what Rosa parks did especially when you compare it to a ***ing unreasonable request by an unreasonable man. *** this has to be the dumbest thing I have ever seen on this message board.


Seriously man shoot yourself!!!

Can't really argue with that.

He did mention himself along names like Malcolm X and Martin Luther King in relation to his crusade on cleaning up the sport, right? LOL Jesus, Floyd...

The diffrence is that if the weight is not met 1. The fighter who did make weight may have the fight called off there for losing potetially millions and 2. If the fight does take place the fighter who did make weight is now taking a big risk of fighting someone who is heavier and stronger.


Know we can both agree that we don't need the USDA to administer the weigh in to know that a fighter is over the agreed upon weight limit do we??


Boxing commissions can use a scale correctly cant they?
