Terrible strategical PR move by Floyd

[Roy Hobbs]

At this point If I were Floyd I'd accept the 50/50 and 14 day cutoff just to take my shot at beating his ass and shutting everybody up in one fowl swoop

I absolutely agree. he really did say the worst possible ambiguous answer he could give. this just gives his army of critics more ammunition.

He must enjoy being hated...that's all I can really say. He never does anything to consciously get the media off his back. It's like he loves being ****ted on.

then he complains about the media being on his back. he needs to hire a pr team. he has the money. he has the backing of one of the biggest boxing firms in golden boy. why not get a professional pr team? i think its very necessary in this day & age of the internet & blogosphere.

floyd's best move would have been declining the fight based on wanting full random testing. there is visual evidence of him saying that full random testing or no fight after the mosley fight interview.

PR= Public Relations

I think Floyd is screwed in the head due to the Roger business. He's busted up and a very emotional guy.

Be good to hear what Rog has to say on this.

I agree to an extent... hes in a bad situation and its getting worst for him, the only real valid excuse he has is the Roger issue.

I think the thought of him being scared is silly... I basically think its either the Roger issue or that he cashed in so much from Mosley that he doesn't need to fight Manny for the money because he earned so much already this year, so basically more of a greed thing and still sticking his fingers up to the fans, which isn't a valid excuse.

his attorneys are advising him not to comment further on the drug testing issue because of Pac's pending defamation lawsuit

You know this how?

Couldn't agree more... especially when you mould your career in being the bad guy, you will get criticism.

Boxing Commission has to bring in OSTs as standard but they too stinky to do it

All Floyd's moves are calculated. Who are we to questions his moves when he just made 65 million off his last 2 fights? He seems to be doing something right even with his haters at an all time high. Floyd basically said he was chilling not even entertaining that BS that was going on. All roads lead to him and if u don't believe that then tell me why Bob Arum is trying hard not to upset him. And if the contract was made with so many concessions made by Pacquiao then why hasn't the contract details have been revealed. Floyd knows it was the old stipulations so he knew from day one he was not signing that deal. Get a grip people.

Could be his hands again.

This is going to be a bad publicity disaster for floyd. I think he gave the worst possible answer he could give for his reason on passing the fight. I think he should have declined the fight based on his stance on testing or getting the lions share of the money but not because of lack of interest. Bad strategic move by floyd & his handlers. I think he just gave the upper hand back to pacman & top rank.

***** that you are!!!!! What do you consider a strategic PR move for Floyd that's not terrible?

Here's what the *****s want Floyd to do:

1. Let Floyd Mayweather Senior, a convicted drug trafficker criminal felon, bash Pacquiao with false accusations of steroid abuse that has no proof of any kind, size, shape, and form other than the fact that Pacquiao is superior and has passed every legitimate test he has ever taken.

2. Let a woman batterer like Roger Mayweather make dumb and dishonest claims that Pacquiao is taking something called "A-side meth".

3. Let Floyd demand blood tests based on the above false and baseless accusations hoping Pacquiao says "B.S. to you Floyd the Ducker!!!"
