Why doesn't Floyd Mayweather go on ESPN First Take?

[-Kev-]

The real question is, why do you want to see Floyd there?

All of these First Take interviews you speak of, Pac, Cotto, Bradley, Marquez, Clottey , I haven't seen one. If Floyd was there, it would be no different, I wouldn't watch it. Who cares honestly? I no longer care about what Floyd or any fighter has to say outside the ring. Now inside the ring, like post fight interviews, i'd watch that. I haven't even watched All Access. I don't have time for that.

If you're not too fond of Floyd anyway, why do you want to see him blab around ESPN, probably say something ****** anyway, then you criticize him for it. I enjoy Floyd the boxer and that's that, I don't need to see him talk any where.

Notice espn never lets Dan Rafael anywhere near that show.

They do let Teddy Atlas on the show which is EASILY there most knowledgeable guy on boxing hands down.

He was before Mayweather/Alvarez, and made Skip look like the dumbass he is when Skip thought the catchweight meant Alvarez had to weigh 152 on fight night.

I remember that

Yeah, thats right. I guess skips agents went to espn and said "uhh please no more dan on"

[hectari]

Im aware that he used to do interviews with Brian Kenny.
But everyone else has been on First Take, Pacquiao, Clottey, Cotto, Marquez, Bradley, or atlest on ESPN TV.

The last time Floyd was on ESPN TV was 2009-2010 maybe?

Becaue he is a sensitive diva who only allows reporters who kiss his butt and never ask him tough questions.

This is how the interview will go, floyd will get his buttons pushed easy and start whining and crying and throwing a fit like a little feminine metrosexual weirdo and he will start thinking Skip is a hater and throw a fit when Skip tels him stop ducking Manny


Pacquiao has thick skin, that is why he goes on there and doesn't care if Stephen A smith makes fun of him or says Floyd will be him, pacman smiles and answers well Bring it on man I like the challenge.

Floyd was already trembling and sipping an empty cup of water when bob Costas grilled him about his comments about his health coming first concerting Pacquiao asking him does that mean he worries about his health if he fights Manny basically saying he is scared lol

[jayjames616]

Why go on First Take and talk/debate boxing with two guys that have no clue what theyre talking about when it comes to boxing? These two are completely clueless. They don't know ANYTHING about the sport other than the names Mayweather and Pacquiao. These two should not be allowed to talk boxing PERIOD. The only people on ESPN that should be allowed to talk boxing is Rafael and Atlas.

[Masterclass775]

Because they're not scared to call people out on bull****, clear up contradictions & ask questions that everyone wants to know the answers to.

Is that it? You're so smart. getting asked question by people who don't know what the **** their talking about it sounds like he's doing them a favor

[FrankieClutch]

That would be absolutely awful. All they would ask about is a Pacquiao fight that we know isn't going to happen and it's going to be asked by people who don't know sh.t about the sport.
