Yea 50 year in boxing and he still doesnt know anything.....And Arum isnt a good promoter either

Arum is a good promoter of lining his pockets. he does that like no other. We all have talked about the drug testing and Floyd's resume in compariosn to others....so with confidence i can say larry merchant don't know nothign about boxing!!!

Man you are duuuuuumb. So you judgin knowledge off # of posts in this forum full of ******s like you?? For your info, I am a veteran than came over from the east and was banned from there for schooling a bunch of know-nothing mofo's like you. Its sad that you just can't help but post dumb shyt. We are talking about competitive fights, not over hyped garbage. Since when does a hyped fight = competitive. If you have thousands of post full of the bull**** that you are putting on these boards, that is proof that the number of posts is by no means a clear representation of boxing knowledge. you damn test tube baby.

HAHAHAHA they ban people for being morons (thats you) not schooling others......Pac is the P4P king and has beating the best out there....idk why it wont be competitive like you claim.

In the aftermath of Floyd Mayweather's lopsided, 12-round decision over WBA welterweight king, Shane Mosley, HBO's Larry Merchant, among other things, told Mayweather, during the post-fight interview, that a lot of people, including himself, have criticized him for not always facing the best fighters.

Merchant has seen some the best fighters in history and he is not saying anything about Floyds skill level. Hes talking about his competition and who he fights. He admits Floyd has the best stuff out there but isnt fighting at his full potential

[BIGBOXINGFAN]

Whoa Floyd did NOT accept Mosleys challange in the Marquez interview, it took an earthquake, 7 months and 2 fighters with nobody to face for Floyd to finally agree

It goes back to what you said. Mosley was not and I repeat was not a PPV attraction. Mayweather is easy to get in the ring. All Hbo and the promoters had to do was guarantee 22.5 million and hello, you got Mayweather vs Mosley. Everything else is irrelevant now.
Floyd took the fight and beat the **** out of Mosley.

Barrera was his best win.....after that....

Losing to a washed up Morales......beating an even more washed up Morales after Raheem did it....getting outboxed my Marquez twice.....fighting David Diaz @135,...beating a drained Oscar at a weight he didnt fight at in a decade....beating Hatton after Mayweather knocked him out.....beating Cotto at a catchweight, and beating Clottey who just loss to Cotto?

yeah those are great accomplishments

oh and i didnt even mention the draws on his record and the 2 knock out losses....

please tell me how that equates to fighting the best out there?

[odogg8121]

Larry Merchant is just a plain grumpy old man.
Mosley ducked Mayweather old man and you know it.
Merchant is *******

Now this is **** dead on...

okay I understand now, your tru colors are showing. you have pacs scrotum skin covering your eyes. Pac is beating everybodies sloppy seconds. When is the last time pac has fight somebody coming off of a significant win??? Please answer that question you damn idiot. Pac is not beating the best at their best. pac is a fraud of epic proportions. A fraud and a drug user.

It wouldn't surprise me either. Now that you mention it. Floyd all of sudden went from an virtuoso to a talented coward all around the same time of him leaving Top Rank.....hmmmmm
