Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather Jr. Interview on Fighting Shane Mosley

[Tweezy316]

Aren't you forgetting who Floyd's dance partner was? He was the real star....without him, Floyd would never have achieved those numbers on his own, or else he would have been able to prove it with Baldomir...in other words all roads lead back to Oscar.

Is that why Pacquiao fought De la hoya and did half the numbers oscar did with Mayweather? De la hoya made his most money fighting Mayweather FACT! Mosley will make his most money fighting Mayweather FACT! Pacquiao is he will just man da **** up! Will make his most money fighting Mayweather FACT! There's only one common denominator and that's MAYWEATHER!!! Stop hatin

I'm not comparing Pac versus Mayweather PPV numbers, focus on the context of my post, not the narrative you've created for yourself. Look carefully at the post you left above, what do May and Pac both have in common? Again....all roads lead back to Oscar.

It wouldn't of been a problem had Pac just taken the damn test. Mosley is proving that it's no problem. And don't even start with the Mosley was on steroids before. Because Mosley never tested positive. So who knows who else isn't testing positive. If Pacquiao can request $10 mil for every pound floyd is overweight. And then Pac fans say "well it's so floyd wont come into the fight overweight." Well then Floyd can ask for random drug test to make sure they both are using their natural abilities.

The tests are just there to give Floyd a mental advantage over Pac due to blood. (Morales loss...) He tried to "bait" him but Pac is the draw and really does not have to give in to shiot. Don't get it twisted, its common sense.

Mosely is clean, and the steroid stories about him are his past. Mosely has been trying to fight anyone since the Marg fight.

Floyd didn't make weight, laugh about it and payed his fine. JMM punches had Floyd smiling, see the advantage..

Floyd just needs to fight and shut up. Seriously.

you're right with that but you interpreted it the ****** way. you're making it appear like floyd was the bigger draw in that fight. floyd made his biggest payday in that fight as well but he only made half of what oscar got.

about the pac-hoya fight, a lot of fans didn't just buy that one because everbody thinks it was a blatant mismatch, a circus fight...just for the money and nothing else. a fight between a light middle and a lightweight will always be viewed as a hoax

That's BS and you know it is. Manny made excuses before the negotiations even started. Not only that he ducked Marquez 3 and a Mosley fight also. He is sitting around waiting to see which conquered fighter he will face next. Manny PEDquiao is a fake, cheating ass clown that gives boxing a bad name. How dare anyone call this clown an all time great.

I think his point was without PBF Oscar couldnt do those numbers. People try to act like it was all Oscar but PBF was a vital part of those numbers as we can clearly see now.

Pac has heart, he would fight anyone. Its Roach and Arum who selects his fights.
JMM 3- why? Pac is a WW now. From what I have seen JMM does not carry weight well. No contest @ WW.
Cotto was first, not Mosley. Big deal.

Yea i agreee Floyd just wants leverage over Pac with those test, but Pac will only fight on his terms. Floyd thinks that he will also go for larger share of the purse next time but we all know if he does there is no ways Bob Arum will allow that

Oscar was consistently doing big numbers for 10 years, yes his biggest PPV numbers were with Mayweather, but how much of that was attributed to HBO 24/7, that was the most exposure Floyd had ever gotten and where he displayed his alter ego Dr.Evil. He played the heel and it made people interested in seeing him lose, especially to Oscar who was/is a crossover star. I don't think Floyd is a crossover star, in fact I'd bet the house if he weren't fighting Shane and maybe someone of a lesser stature, he wouldn't do big numbers again. I think Naz was correct, how long with the Mayweather continue to be interesting to the general public?

Yeah and that's why Pac weight drained how many fighters? talk about advantage lol he said he wanted to test cotto's power hmmm then why not let cotto come in at 147 and not 145???? You say Pac is the draw? yeah right just compare their numbers with common opponents lol its common sense
