    yeah winning a Mayweather fight and then a fight with Pacquiao doesn't pay that well LOL, I really don't know what goes through your mind YoungMoney.

      I didn't disrespect them...maybe I spoke brashly, but no disrespect meant towards either man.

      They have a job I wouldn't do unless it paid tens of thousands in the AMATEURS....lol.
      I make more money now at my job than any amateur getting his head and body pummeled....All I had to do was go to school and apply for a job.

      but anyway....when you're in an elevator full of people, and someone farts...you can't help but wonder who did it.

      Boxing is a bunch of people in an elevator.

        floyd mayweather is a huge money maker for golden boy. we are talking hundreds of millions of dollars per fight. this guy got a million idiots to buy his tune up fight against a lightweight. if mosley knocked him out and destroyed all that earning potential you better believe serious consequences would have befallen him. saying mosley would have made more money down the line is faulty logic cause you can't make money after you've been assassinated by a hit squad. gatti, arguello, forrest, and then mosley. we would have been mourning them all. so mosley did what he was supposed to do. took his millions of dollars and got beat up a little.

          Of course, and do you know how much Goldenboy would potentially lose if the Pac-May fight was jeopardized?

            Boxing needs to shake itself of this stigma. There's too many idiots going around thinking they know what's going on.

                  exactly. no OST demands, and they also lose a 50/50 split.

                  Pretty much ANY damage to Mayweather or Pacquiao would've destroyed either side's leverage in negotiations.

                  Let's be honest. Pacquiao is not losing to Margarito. Why is he fighting Margarito, a cheater, hated figure, fresh off suspension, and undeserving opponent?

                  Cuz he'll gladly take the fall for a paycheck.

                      Mosley is a golden boy fighter, Floyd isn't. The way how things going it looks as though he's going to leave them. If they truly paid their fighter to lose to Floyd, you think they'd make Floyd put up something as collateral so he could continue to make them money in the future.

                      If you're fixing a fight, you generally don't smack the guy with another big punch whilst their senses are hazy. Mosley tried KOing Floyd in the second round and got his ass whooped round 3-12.
