Why can't Boxing Scene writers get interviews with Mayweather himself?

    Maybe it has something to do with this site being allies with the enemy. This site always does damage control for Pacquiao. Take yesterday for instance. That writer from philboxing did a story that said something to the tune of Miguel Diaz saying Pac's cut was one of the worst he's ever seen. That's clearly damage control. It's an attempt to manipulate the public's perception of how bad the cut was. It's meant to try to give more credence to Arum's claim. I find it odd how he can say it was one of the worst cuts he's ever seen, when he didn't even notice it. Alex Ariza was the 1st one in the corner to treat the cut and he stopped the bleeding. For a S&C coach who has no experience in treating cuts, to stop the bleeding, it must not have been that bad. Certainly not bad enough to warrant more than 6 months to heal. Nevermind the fact that he was going to fight on May 5th if Floyd was currently in the can. Floyd probably won't give them an interview because he feels they don't tell the truth.

      you're embelishing a bit here, dude

      leon put that info about floyd losing big money to a con man out after floyd already cut him off. that article was part of leon's "get back"

          Sure doesn't help when you have writers like Marley who for years trashed Mayweather, brought into the fold. And other writers doing clear damage control.

            Kevin Iole? Maybe because of articles such as this - http://sports.yahoo.com/box/news?slu...dducking072710

                      If that was the case, then we would have been banned by Top Rank ages ago for the dozens of articles with the Mayweather family, including Floyd Jr., ripping Pacquiao for everything in his life, from opponents, to money being made, to allegations of steroid use.
