Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Mosley is a Non-Title Fight, Says Schaefer

[mrjoeblive]

MAYWEATHER is an idiot for not paying this sanctioning fee. What's a couple HUNDRED-THOUSAND out of $20million? This just goes to show all of you MAYWEATHER fans that he doesn't respect HISTORY and wants NO PART OF IT. He should be fighting for his 7th world championship in 5 weight classes. I'm telling you guys now, he will be his own DEMISE. When you are a part of something just for money, he comes back to HUNT you! MAYWEATHER will be no exception. MOSLEY will win and SHOCK the world because he has more WILL and PASSION and RESPECT for HISTORY nad BOXING in general. MAYWEATHER is an ASS-HOLE!

the man respects his craft so much ,he has never been out of shape for a fight, he trains hard for each opponet be it dlh or baldomir. whats a couple hundred thou? money to be used for better purpose or to do how you please. thats why guys like warren buffet want to get every thing they can for free. he is the richest man in world and he is one of the cheapest. because you think he is an ****** has nothing to do with boxing. and very few people has as much passion for boxing as floyd. you hope shane will win and shock the world. and thats ok but base it on boxing not how a man spends his money. also if you have a few hundred thou please send those monies my way.

Smart on Mosley's part. Sucks in a sense because Mayweather would have a belt to hold over Pacs head. Then again Pacs not interested in a technically GREAT fighter in a ring, only in court. People wonder why MMA is killing boxing...

To CLEAN fights...

Mayweather vs Pac in September.. The date Team Pac should be prepared for a fighter like Mayweather......

Back to Mosley.... Why a rematch clause if the belt is not at stake and sense when did Mayweather not want a WW belt? I know he's all about the money, reason HE WANTED to fight Pac but why not want a belt too? O well who cares lets just see a great fight.

[SmoothMon]

tell that to pac. mosley was #1 , pac beat cotto and the RING moved him to #1 without beating mosley

I made a statement about this on the roger and Naz post earlier. De la hoya fights who ever when ever for the last couple years, no belt not contending and Pac beats the same guys May fights and now there is some BS P4P title they claim to get without beating the guys in their own division 1st. Politics as usual man..

Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer has confirmed that Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Shane Mosley, scheduled for May 1 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, is technically a non-title fight. The WBA's welterweight title will only be at stake for Mosley, because Mayweather has refused to pay the necessary sanctioning fees. [Click Here To Read More]

Kind of a statement for PAC 7 "Division" belts...they are for sale....LOL

[mathed]

Makes no sense. You fight the guy and win his belt and then you either retire or defend the belt. Maybe Floyd doesn't want to defend against any of the younger hungry guys coming up. I know he would have the name under his belt but if he is so rich then the sanctioning fees should be minescule.

If Floyd loses, he has a rematch clause. Why fight the guy again if there is nothing at stake? Mosley is the WW champ......the champ has the belt.....might as well be a catchweight......maybe Floyd is coming in heavy again to gain an advantage over Mosley....which means the belt would not be at stake anyways


Either way, seems odd to me.

[La Parca]

Smart move, he doesn't want to pay the fees and lose money.

He's getting his couple of hundred K dolars back from the Marquez fight, LOL...he's proven 6 times to be world champion, maybe there is no need for him to pay a lot of money over it...to proove waht? just to brag the belt??!

that's what matters....

i love how idiots say he doesn't respect his craft b/c he's not interested in this being a "title" fight.....

i forgot where i heard it, but shane made a reference as to him being the champion, and floyd replied, "after i whoop your ass, you can keep your belt."

[Kris Silver]

Beat a welterweight champion at welterweight and he keeps his belt.

He's ammune.

Great.

So what's the point in a champion again, if at times he can be ammune even being defeated? Heck just let him lose a few times and keep the belt, what the hell.

[brick wall]

dudes like you are really funny. this man floyd has a net worth of 200mil. and thats broke to you? they always said mike jackson was broke. but when he died it was revealed the man was worth 500mil. i dont know what you consider broke, but floyd is hardly broke.

do you even understand what a net worth means?
