    spaddy is a good guy, i like him, used to like him a real lot, but he ****ed that up by taking himself out of the game and spotlight, so to speak.


    but leading up to a fight with mayweather you have to not only have credentials but you have to be on top of your game, obviously, and you have to bring something to the table.

    everyone who has fought mayweather recently, has had those things, even though they were easily criticized because THERE ARE BETTER MATCH UPS OUT THERE FOR MAYWEATHER TO FIGHT THAT THE FANS WANT TO SEE.

    let spaddy ring up a few NAMED fighters in his win column before he fights mayweather, anything short of that, it's just a another sparring match between the two.


    i'm willing to bet a 1000 bucks that spaddy wouldn't even be able to beat jmm or even katsidis at this point, and a myriad of other current fighters who are active and have got their schit together........

    but no, throw him in against mayweather and call it legit, this is a ****ing terrible joke................. at best!

    Look speaking for myself and possibly a few others, we're just happy to see Spadafora get a chance/some recognition and to see him fight on the big stage.
    From a Mayweather point of view..its so obviously a tune up fight..which should really be making any boxing fan ****ing wet as **** because it kind of indicates a fight with Pacquiao..
    In the same way nobody really is calling Kahn a b*tch because hes fighting McCloskey..because hes fighting Bradley next, and besides ya'll should just be happy that Floyd hasnt decided to go on another "vacation".

      Dude all that sounds good, but the reality is Bob Arum has created this market where you can pour syrup on ****, and call it pancakes. Al these people criticizing Floyd and Spadafora right now are the same ones who buy Arum fights, after he tells you I not marketing to you Hardcore boxing fan.

      The Casual boxing fan if promoted correctly, would buy Mayweather/Spadafora whether is a mismatch or not. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

            It is what it is. If other promoters and their fighters weren't making PPV fights that were more compelling, and considered competitive then we wouldn't have this problem. Don't hate the players, hate the game.

              If The Beatles would have made a song called "All Women Are Whores And Only Good For Sex", you think any of those chicks in that pic would care?
              can't help but wonder if mayweather's just putting this out there to test the ******ity of his fans and their blind loyalty to him.

              guy's like the negro pied piper, has so many hypnotised fools defending his every move.

              those defending his 100million dollar demand to fight pac and trying to legitimise spadafora as a credible opponent have to be some of the biggest imbeciles that have ever walked on this planet.

                  Apparently Floyd is fighting Spadafora. Never read about it in an actual article though only in the Forums.

                    That's because REAL boxing fans know the whole Mayweather/Pacquiao situation is a FARCE. Pacquiao fans can argue against a 14 day blackout period for testing one month, then turn around and say its fair 3 months later. They will tell you Floyd is scared of Shane Mosley, then when signs to fight and beats Shane Mosley all of the sudden he is old and washed up. When Pacquiao signs to fights Shane Mosley he's dangerous again all of a sudden.


                    So why can't Floyd get 100 mili to fight Pacquiao, as long as he agree to 10 million per every pound over 147 which Manny wants right?

                    How is that not reasonable?

                    Hey Spadafora is undefeated, and doesn't that make him just as dangerous as Mosley, whom Floyd virtually shut out and is coming of draw to a guy who got beat on Friday night fights, which is Manny next PPV opponent?

                    C'mon man your not being reasonable.

                      jesus tap dancing christ....

                      floyd-spadafora is a joke. no way around it.

                      its 10X worse than pacquiao fighting mosley, and that's already a shit fight.
