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

[theggamme209]

Mosley hasn't fought in 16 months. He should of been stripped by now. These belts are as worthless as the wbc diamond belt! There are so many sanctioning bodies now, just another way to get more of a fighters purse!!

Belts don't do nuthin' but collect dust.

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!

yeah uh-hu ok.....

[SmoothMon]

So then who is #1?

No one until these top guys fight each other

[Bea5T]

Belt doesnt really matter

but It would still be better if it was at stake just so the winner earns something you can see

[jtiger78]

People call floyd broke.... If anyone is broke it would but us in here right? But wait a minute why do people care about another mans pockets? I guess what he eats makes u ****? Im lost help me?

[TOBYLEE1]

The belt would be a symbol at the end. Not that it means anything these days. Don't know if Floyd won he would be interested in defending it. Don't know who is the mandatory for the WBA WW belt

[bdevils]

Mayweather is soo broke he can't even pay a sanctioning fee!!

"What's in your wallet"??

[big_james10]

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.

It would serve absolutely no purpose for him to pay the sanctioning fee and fight for the WBA belt. Owing the belt would not make him any more money, garner him any more prestige or give him an edge in negotiations in any fight. He would simply be $600,000 poorer. If he wants to throw away $600,000 he can find a worthy charity to donate it to. Floyd is fighting the only guy at welterweight capable of beating him on May 1, so I don't know who these "young hungry guys" are that you are referring to.

You think the sanctioning fees are minuscle. If you had one thousand dollars (or pounds) in your pocket, would you throw 30 of those dollars or pounds in the garbage because it is a minuscle amount?

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!
