Floyd to fight 3-4 times and retire!!!

[DLT]

Again, obviously you don't know who Floyd and this post again proves.

Who the **** is Oscar to kiss Arum ass? WTF does that mean? That's has nothing to do with the scenario that's it's very unlikely for Floyd to fight 2 out of the 3 Top Rank fighters in the next 18 months. It's asinine to think that he will.

Homie, we are having a respectable conversation. Dont throw that last line in there. If you dont agree with me then fine but respect me as a man. I have my opinion and you have yours. Just because its your opinion doesnt make it right or any better then mine, e****ally when it hasnt played out yet. Dont disrespect me when I didnt come at you sideways.

If schaffer is to be believed, I think HBO may pressure floyd to fight more often as his career fades.

I dont think he can make the same form SHowtime. He surely wont get the exsposure. Even with CBS and everything SHowtime is still laggin behind HBO. I think the Pac Shane fight showed that. How many ppv's did they actually sell?

Agree with the last piece. Thats why I am suggesting HBO is mandating this to a degree. Especially if they can get him on regualr HBO once.

Floyd will never fight on regular HBO, until he's past prime perhaps.

Floyd is a PPV star, he will make a high guarantee on Showtime as well. Because, the network are not the ones that make the guarantee for a PPV. HBO will not force their hand because of what Floyd brings to the table and Al Haymon. Because, just as easily as Floyd can go across the street and get his high guarantee, so can Haymon and take his all artists and concerts with him.

HBO won't force anything, they know where their bread is buttered.

Who said there was a flaw in that video? Just as there is no flaws now when Floyd speaks.

Unless you count stuttering and speaking slowly a flaw. Which Floyd has always done.

I can't speak about the Ustream stuff. Cuz' I don't watch the crap he does outside the ring. I don't find him entertaining outside of the ring. But, I doubt it's any worse than what I hear in the interviews and stuff.

Did you read my original post?

I thought I said Mayweather is stuttering/speaking a lot more slowly than when he originally started... Then I asked you to post a link proving that Mayweather "always" had a speech problem as a kid.

Comparing the video I posted to Mayweather's most recent interviews, in my opinion, Mayweather's speech is declining. It's not in the James Toney/ Meldrick Taylor stage, but it is declining.

I thought TS's question was "who would we "like" to see"??

No one ever said anything about who we were "going" to see.

But since you know who Floyd can and can't fight, post your next 3-4 opponents?

He didn't say he would like to see Cotto, he said he can honestly see Floyd fighting Cotto.

Anyways, Floyd will fight a GBP fighter every time out. The only one that he might fight that it's not a Golden Boy fighter will be Pac. But, unless Pac steps up to the plate and takes the random OST with no cutoff then that fight isn't happening at all, ever.

[jrosales13]

Floyd will NOT fight Miguel Cotto. I just can't see it. It'd be a crap choice, and one that Arum would make for Pacquiao actually. He's already mentioned a possible rematch with Cotto if he beats Margrito.

Floyd makes it a point that Manny has fought a few of his left overs (De La Hoya 1 1/2 years later, Hatton 2 years later, Mosley 1 year later, and Marquez at 144 2 years later)....So he won't fight Cotto. Also, it's a crap choice because how good has Cotto been since he got knocked out by Margairto in 08'??? Not that great. Still good, but not in his "prime". Also, I see Floyd fighting Sergio at 154 before Pac fights Sergio at 150. I would also rather see Mayweather-Martinez at 154 than Pacquiao-Martinez at 150. Sergio's would be draining himself too far to go down to 150. Like I said, maybe if Sergio struggles against Barker or gets knocked down by Barker, than Arum will sign Pacquiao to fight Martinez. It honestly sounded like a bluff when Arum said Pacquiao will fight Martinez at 150...notice how there's been zero response from Pacquiao, Arum, or Roach since Sergio said that the other day. Also, Dibella said a fight with Floyd at 154 is more realistic at this point.

Ortiz, Martinez, Pacquiao, Khan, and Alvarez. Thatw ould be my dream but I am far too smart to think it will play out like that, This is boxing for christ sake.

That in the bold it's absolutely correct.

Also, it's hard enough to get top rank and Haymon to sit down and talk to get one fight done. It will be damn near impossible to get both of them to talk twice in the next 18 months for 2 different fights.

And, I don't see Pac nor Floyd fighting Martinez anytime soon.

But, he really does not...That's the whole point.

You didn't understand the question in my last post, but it's cool.

[New England]

You go ahead and post it.

Look how slowly he put his words together,

Hence, "you're only fast in the ring" comment.

And, Floyd has a speech problem. As a kid he stuttered. He has worked on it to make it less. But, still a stuttering problem.

He's not slurring his words at all at this time. So no concern yet IMO anyways.

christ that was rude of merchant

the kid was just in a fu cking prizefight.


you could tell he was embarrassed when larry said that to him. i would be too.


embarrassment leading to anger


"HBO OUGHT TO FIRE YOU! YOU DONT KNOW **** ABOUT BOXING!"


that outburst has been a long time coming

I understood, that's why I answered it. Obviously, your reading comprehension it's not up to par.

[BoxingGenius27]

But, he really does not...That's the whole point.

You just admitted in one of your post that you haven't seen his Ustream interview, nor have you seen any interviews outside his post-fight interviews. So how would you know?

I'm still searching for one of the video's that supports my claim so stand-by. But when I post it, you will see a huge difference between the vid I posted in this thread and the one that I will soon post. This is subjectively speaking of course.
