    As a boxer, the last thing you wanna do is piss off a reporter. Reporter's articles and thoughts are sensitive to how the fighter treats them/acts in public. Floyd pissed of Doug, but he calmed down in the last 3 years. If you saw Doug's stuff 3-4 years ago, you'd think Floyd ****d him. Floyd is notorious for making reporters go against him with his attitude.
    A reporter is supposed to not give a **** about what a fighter thinks about his articles; that's a conflict of interests. Big ups to Fischer for having balls and being his own man.

      Fischer is one of the most biased when it comes to Mayweather, he is very similar to Thomas Hauser in that regard. They practically always bet against Mayweather.

        It always happens though, especially with the bigger named athletes. And a lot of these so-called journalists aren't that professional.

        But yeah, when Floyd blasts them to their face, it almost always gets under their skin. You saw very quickly how an old guy in Larry Merchant couldn't maintain his professionalism after Floyd put him on blast insulting him to his face.

        Then you see the flip side of the coin, when Floyd blasted Elie Sechback to his face about 'hating' and since then Sechback has been calling Floyd the greatest boxer that ever lived.

          I thought Maidana did well but Floyd definitely won.

            People that think Floyd won are the same people that thought Garcia beat Herrerra
            9-3 is a bit extreme don't you think? Where did you get that from?

              Maybe you don't know that check hooks is a Pacfart. Him and his ilk get some kind of ****** bashing/hating Floyd and kissing Pac's a$$. You'd rather be surprised that he gave 3 rds to May. That's a little miracle.

                I think a score of Mayweather or Maidana winning 115-113 or a 114-114 draw is acceptable scorecards, same with Canelo vs. Lara but at least in we're going to Mayweather/Maidana fight again.

                  Floyd had put himself too much in the hole to have won that one. Maidana gassed a bit in the 2nd half and Floyd did better .... Maidana over Floyd 7-5.

                    I'm sorry, as good as Maidana fought I can't see how you score the fight for him. 8-4 or 7-5 I get, maybe a draw if you give Maidana too much credit. I thought Mayweather clearly did enough to win.

                      The thing is, Floyd doesnt get along with any reporter, writer, etc who doesnt kiss his azz or throw him softball and/or pre agreed upon questions. Its no coincidence the only site he gives exlusives to is Fhype.
