Comments Thread For: Mayweather's New License Fuels Talk of New York Fight

[hamada44]

Floyd aint fighting in new york. No chance. The license is so he can promote his fighters there.

Mayweather is the biggest flip flop in history of world. He is a communist *******. He leaves hbo n now las vegas. Where is the loyalty. He'd stab his fans in the back ooo wait ur too busy duking his duck..how can u enjoy this guy as a fan if he doesnt give u the best fight ever to be made pacquiao. He can care less about his fan n now he jus gone abandoned vegas wat a joke n wat he did to hbo wtf. Lebron is a saint compared to this Nigerian lol

Change FLoyd's name with Manny's.........same story.........Macao, he fought Mosley on Showtime.........the only reason he's' got leverage on HBO now is that Floyd did leave for the biggest contract in history. What an idiot that guy........going and signing a ****** 6 fight 250 mil contract. That's just plain ******......................

Wait so Floyd was knocked down?

He took a knee and an 8 count because his hands hurt so bad. He wasn't hit........technically it was ruled and scored a knockdown......the only one of his career and it came because of his own punch..........

The drug to numb hands doesn't work that great. It's not like getting your face numbed before a root canal. You still have to make a fist. Most places that do ban it do so to protect that fighter using it, not their opponent............and I have no idea if the USADA testing Floyd does allows it or not. I doubt it........he changed to Grant partly for that reason. He used Reyes before........

Not versed well enough. There were actual negotiations with Barclays prior to his fight in May and numerous articles to document that. While Ellerbe said they received a good offer and were very close to accepting they decided on going with the MGM, who probably returned the favor by splashing venue during the Pacquiao-Bradley fight week with advertising for Mayweather-Maidana.

And Arum actually complained in another article we had months ago, claiming Mayweather used the threat of fighting at Barclays to apply pressure on the MGM to push his PPV during a Top Rank fight week.

NY allows hand injections? I thought it is only in Nevada where it is allowed...

I was thinking the same thing.

Floyd-Cotto II for Cotto's MW belt at 150 comes out of the blue and Maidana is left wondering what happened; announcement to come in late July.

yea I know the numbers but how he left. who post a picture on twitter showtime/cbs like now what bicthes. hbo had no idea from what i read like serious. the company who supposedly let you produce your own show 24/7 lol. been loyal to you even when u beat up on a little marquez but didn't say nothing about the mis match etc. its like breaking up with your girlfriend/gayfriend with a picture of you and another women. no caption and no goodbye. no one does that right?

TBE is showing that he's the man inside and outside the ring.

They would never do a 150 cw, that is rediculous. Floyd is the man at 154 too, lets not forget. 155 is much more reasonable.
