Mayweather doesn't fight fixed fights for the "entertainment" of his people.

That form of "entertainment" is for the cash coward Manny Quackquiao the PEDking duck and his stans. Like it or not kids.

Yeah right Gayweather Mosley was fixed. Shane almost knocked him out cold but had to hold back to keep the deal seeing as he was his promoter to. FACT!!!

Wilbon is a clown with an agenda. He crapped on Verlander wanting to get 7 no hitters because of "history proving that things like this don't happen often" and even mentioned the rise in pitching stats having a direct link to PED issue. Then turn around and poo poo Floy's PED request as if it isn't a viable question to ask in 2011. He all but blamed Floyd for Saturday's fight. Shameful.

It's shameful. So very shameful.

The p*ssy ran to fight Clottey when he saw Floyd agree to a 5050 split and that crazy 10 million for every lb over 147.

Fanny wasn't expecting Floyd to agree to all that...it shoock the Juiceman.

When a guy like Mayweather agrees to a 5050 split you KNOW he wants it.

The only thing Floyd wants is his gasket blown out by 50 cent.

its not blasphemy its the damm truth. And american sports has always played favored when it comes to who to criticize and for what reason. Let all you *****s and *******s play the blame game, im gonna go by the facts. Fact; they only had 1 legitimate negotiation where both parties sat down and talked about a potential fight, that was last january. Fact Mayweather agreed to his ridiculous demand of paying 10mil per lb every pound he was over weight, and Pacquiao did not agree to random drug testing. PERIOD, everything else going on is to sway public opinion. Be real and any pacquiao fan ask themselves this question. 2 years ago, when the negotiations failed to make manny vs pacquiao , fans DEMANDED that floyd take a challenge and face the next toughest opponent at welterweight, who was shane mosley at the time. When are we going to pretend that Manny is not doing the exact same thing floyd was and fighting names that dont bring much to the table in the ring, but have a lot of fans outside of it. Now you mean to tell me his next step up in competition is Marquez at 145lbs. FLoyd would be crucified if he took steps backwords in competition the way manny has been...... Manny does get a pass, to the point where his fight with miguel cotto @ a catchweight was a fricking title fight. ONLY FOR MANNY.

Stellar post. Just stellar.

[STRUGG]

he deserve to be persecuted .................to the full extent..............fans are sick and tired of floyd antics and vagina moves............................****** ****

there were 2 negotiations.


Ross Greenburg already confirmed this.

why do you clownshoes love to perpetuate lies?

the 2nd time Manny agreed to the ridiculous demands of OSDT 14 day cut off and he actually conceded to 7 days.


Floyd didn't even schedule a fight. He went on vacation. Just LOL @ this bull****e post

[mrpain81]

Couldn't happen to a nicer or classier guy.

[Gutz]

They are speaking the truth.


Floyd the biggest coward in Boxing...

Brilliant post. The only problem I have with Floyd was in 2008 when Miguel Cotto whooped Alfonso Gomez and was on a collision course with Margarito I would have liked for Floyd to come out and either challenge Cotto or say he wants the winner of that fight instead of talking about rematching Oscar. But of course I dont blame Floyd bc if he fought Oscar again he would have made like $25 million and would have got less for the Cotto fight. Arum would not have let any of that happen but I would have enjoyed Floyd expressing interest that he wanted to fight Cotto.

i agree with that. The only problem with that, and what most people dont understand is that bob arum stands in the way. His former promoter and the same way Arum is reluctant to put manny against a golden boy fighter, i always felt that was the reason behind margarito/mayweather and cotto/mayweather not happening. People love to listen to what "other people are saying" instead "of what actually happened." Before Mosley signed to fight mayweather, he stood on the sideline for over a year, practically begging for a fight with manny pacquiao. Fact, he approached Freddie Roach on 2 occasions pertaining a fight with pacquiao and Roach said no for two reason, 1. Mosley wanted the fight at 147lbs, and pointed to the fact the Pacquiao just beat de la hoya at 147lbs, so why not fight him. Freddie Roach's response was, your too good. And at the time there wasn't enough money to make a fight that was more risk than reward .

I feel Team pacquiao tried to take advantage of being in the driver seat the 1st time around, knowing mayweather got killed publicly for fighting marquez, and also with the notion they felt Mayweather wouldn't fight Mosley. So in January they tried to play tough guy during the negotiations with floyd figuring "If he didn't fight us, and {we} know he's not going to fight Mosley who else is he going to fight. So they made there demands, floyd agreed to the 50-50 purse split, the size gloves, ring size, and then it was that weird "well we want you to pay 10mil per pound clause" which to the casual fan may seem fair because Floyd came in 2lbs over the agreed upon 145lb catchweight with marquez. To a hardcore fan that clause (especially to an ego like mayweather) gives off the impression that you either didn't expect him to except it, or it was made to piss him off during negotiations. Either way he excepted there offer.

Now when its time for mayweather's request, he only had 1. And that was to take RANDOM TESTING leading up until the fight. I have a plenty good memory and i can recall the amount of excuses they came up with as to why they were reluctant to agree to RANDOM testing. 1st it was Manny doesn't like needles, to he's superstitious, to we will only agree to 3 test dates, before the fight, one during training camp, and one following the fight, to we will agree to testing 21 days before, to 14 days is no good, so fight called off. If Mayweather used drug testing as an excuse to not fight manny (which i doubt because i feel with all the relatives he has in his ear and knowing the business he really believes that Manny is using something).

What gets at me pertaining to this weekends past fight was, what did they think Mosley could possibly bring to the table. They obviously saw his 2 past performances against Mora and Mayweather, why do you think they chose Mosley out of all the live dogs to fight. Because they wanted to say Pacquiao knocked Mosley out, Floyd couldn't. so let the public debate who is better. They did it with de la hoya, and the public sucks it up, not paying attention to the fact that Mayweather fought de la hoya at his natural weight, why manny did it at 147 (where de lo hoya hadnt fought in 10yrs) and when i saw on fight night that he weighed 145lbs, i knew he had no chance. Fans gave Pacquiao credit for knocking out ricky hatton in the 2nd round pointing to the fact that it took Mayweather 10 to do so. What about now, why didn't he ko Mosley, and dont dare blame it on mosley himself, cause thats the opponent TEAM PACQUIAO picked.

I like watching Pacquaio fights because he's exciting, but the minute he started getting paid millions, he took the same safety 1st approach (as far as opponents to fight) that mayweather did after the Gatti fight. 1 loss for either of them (Mayweather especially) and the millions go down the drain. I don't mind fighters doing that because for as much pain and suffering you have to endure to get to that point, you wanna solidify you spot and milk it for what its worth. However, if your gonna point the finger at mayweather and ask him to step up to the plate and fight a challenge, i think now its time we ask Pacquiao to do the same, cause IMO a catchweight fight @ 145 with Marquez is not a step up, its more like a crip walk. Real talk.
