Floyd has a fever...

By Keith Idec - As we prepare to watch five fights this Thanksgiving weekend, it seems like an appropriate time to appreciate some of the combatants in Showtime’s doubleheader and HBO’s tripleheader.

Manny Pacquiao, the humble humanitarian with much more important things on his mind than boxing, and Sergio Martinez, the modest, movie star-looking middleweight champion with the strong social conscience, aren’t the only fighters doing the sport proud both in and out of the ring.

Andre Ward (22-0, 13 KOs), who’ll defend his WBA super middleweight title against Australia’s Sakio Bika (28-4-2, 19 KOs) in Showtime’s main event, is a God-fearing family man who treats his opponents, the residents of his native Oakland, Calif., and seemingly everyone else with respect. Andre Berto (26-0, 21 KOs), the Winter Haven, Fla., fighter who’ll make a mandatory defense of his WBC welterweight title against Mexico’s Freddy Hernandez (29-1, 20 KOs) in HBO’s second bout, has handled a natural disaster in his family’s native Haiti in such an inspiring, philanthropic manner that you hope he makes as much money as possible to aid that cause.

Floyd creates a self-inflicting stories just to avoid embarrassment inside the ring...At least publicly, Floyd has degenerated into a mean spirited bully allegedly one that attacks women...He has developed insecurities that resulted to a fear of losing...Floyd has a self-inflicted obstacle cause by a fever...It's a PACQUIAO FEVER!!!

In shorter words what kieth is trying to say is that mayweather is a *****!........ I dont know why hes so scared for i think he has a really good chance at beating manny. I just think they dont want to fight eachother period i mean floyd is running scared (why sign a five fight deal if your not going to fight anyone?) and manny doesnt want a drug test its not like floyd could knock him out.? Idk mann i gave up on them two already its gone passed the point of trying to build up a fight......

like ive been saying from the start, if floyd really believes he is fighting in the crusade to save & clean up boxing, then he couldve EASILY rejected pac & signed a fight with martinez, p-will, etc. after the shane fight...

its hilarious that just because the pac fight didnt happen, instead of floyd fighting ANYBODY ELSE, the boy decides to go on vacation... he tells the cancer kid he is taking "a couple years off"... if my memory serves me right, after the shane fight, floyd said he was ready to beat the best & ready to prove to everyone he is the #1 p4p.... but within a few days, we get a "vacation" announcement. to spend time with his family??? the time he spent with his family apparently consisted of making racist videos trying to steal attention from pac... beat up his baby mama... & bully guards and aquaintances.

he is far from being the face of boxing....

wtf kind of article is this? A role model for his kids? What kind of role model are you to your kids Keith Idec? Maybe good according to you but depending on how somebody else measures your goodness you might be a terrible role model. All I want to see is Floyd in the ring. The only reason I'm concerned about his life outside the ring is in hopes that he stays out of jail or prison. Save what you think about these allegations to yourself because they are nothing but allegations. Stop trying to praise other boxers in comparison to Floyd because you dont know anything about their personal life. I'm sure you would say nice things about Hatton had you not known that he snorts multiple lines of *******. Stick to boxing.

This is officially the worst article that I have ever read on boxing scene to date... Not just saying this because I'm a Floyd fan. This is just all speculative BS for real.

definition of butthurt.

This is from the Heat-Sixers notebook..
INSIDE THE ARENA: Boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr. was booed when he was showed on the big screen. Apparently, people want to see him fight Manny Pacquaio.

The author asserts that it is likely that Floyd will go to jail...what facts is this comment based on? Does he have inside knowledge of what occurred or what arguments the attorneys will make? Or he just speculating because it is convenient for his "article."

What a pathetic love fest for Manny and Sergio in the beginning, as well. How about you mention that Manny consistently cheats on his wife if you are going to make an argument about who is a "role model" for other people?

What a piece of garbage.

last time i checked, cheating on your wife is not a criminal act.



beating up your wife in front of your kids, running people off the road, ordering your loser goon to shoot people, & cheating on your taxes on the other hand are punishable offenses under the rule of law.


dumbass maggot.

It's not the worst.

Try to stomach this article full of personal opinions and hyperbole from that Nathanielz clown.....

A lot of the article was accurate, and much of the speculation was likely.

Mayweather needs to get a grip.

Looks like Boxingscene is trying their hardest to discredit Floyd Mayweather Jr
because of what has been exposed of Pacquiao. Floyd is not even fighting
right now so why all the articles about him? Howcome we never hear
about other fighters personal lives everyday on here? All I ever cared about
was Floyd fighting in the ring honestly. Everybody has their **** to deal
with outside of their jobs and am sure that noe of these guys has a squeaky
clean lifestyle.

Hold up! Your trying to say that treating on your WIFE is a lesser
crime than what Floyd did? Manny took an oath to honor and obey
and he broke it. Can't keep your word toyour family then what
else will you be dishonest about? On top of that, didn't Manny
take a brief case full of cash from Oscar De La Hoya and then
sign with Bob Arum? What kind of dishonest bull**** is that? Cheating
on your spouse(s) is in the bible as a no no and something you
shouldn't do. Very hypocritical bias outlook on your behalf.
