Mayweather-Spadafora.. if signed; reaction of boxingscene

[Larry the boss]

If it's not on PPV, I'm fine with it. It's not like he'll be tricking the public via 24/7 or holding titles hostage and keeping younger guys from getting their shine on. If it's a tuneup for Pac, good. If not? Well, maybe we should consider him a Spadafora-level fighter from now on.

At their age, I don't expect Pac or Floyd to fight any dangerous up-and-coming guys. They're going to fight old guys with big names only, so it is what it is.

spaddy aint no big name..hes irrelevant and it would be a **** fight

I like how you resort to calling me a ***** because you can't handle any logic. Im not a fan of Floyd, think he's boring to watch, and his "trash talking" is weak. What have I said about Pac-Mosley, anyway? That it's a mismatch being sold as a competitive fight? That's a fact. Arum said Mosley was shot back in September.

Floyd and Pacquiao aren't going to be getting into extremely tough fights at this stage in their careers. Accept it. You guys can call each other names and point fingers all day, but it is what it is.

this fight is a joke dude, and your talking like somehow you accept it

thats his right man..he has a right to except and watch it....

[plaster]

Floyd has to pay his bills too. he just dont wanna fight Pac, and the IRS is knocking on Floyd's door again. That is the reality of the situation

[AllEyesOpen]

I think Mayweather/Spadafora will play out like Mayweather/M. Hatton did.

So what? This is boxing man. Pac-Margarito was a joke too. Saul Alvarez won a vacant belt off Matthew Hatton a few weeks ago. Sergio Martinez can't find an opponent. What sport have you been watching?


Floyd is a grown man, and can fight whoever he wants. You have every right to not go see it and not buy. Same as any fan with any fighter. The dude is basically retired and is coming back to suck some cash out of the sport here and there; it's been done by many guys over the years.

It's a free market, vote with your dollars and viewership. If you don't like the fight, don't watch. I know I won't. But to assert I should be mad or something?

Nah man. This is boxing; it's a business. Things are not going to go the way the hardcore fanbase wants them to go. And if they do; it was purely on accident.

There has been no credible source to support these rumors. Unless Floyd or Ellerbe make an announcement, it shouldn't be worth discussing.

I won't defend Mayweather if this fight happens, which is a huge if, but i'll be sure to bump this when Mayweather announces his next opponent and it's not Spadafora.

Um its a tune up. How else would we react.
