Comments Thread For: Mayweather Clarifies Contract Weight is 147 For Maidana

[turnedup]

See pac boys real champ fighting at his weight not askin a guy who aint even done s*it at 140 to move up to a cw of 144 for ur 147 title floyd is killin manny these days!

Where in the article does it mention Pacquaio. Stop coming into threads starting shhh for the sake of starting it.

[Mayabang]

Title should be revised to: "Ellerbe clarifies contract weight"

[turnedup]

This is a crazy situation between that and the recent glove ruling. Contursi and Garcia might end up sending the mx gloves to the NSAC/WBC for an official ruling whether they can use the gloves and if it's not in the contract it might put Floyd in a tight situation where he's going to have to fight Maidana and his gloves. If the pre-fight argument was insane last time expect pandemonium if the WBC/NSAC approve those gloves.

Where in the article does it mention "those gloves"? You're just trying to cultivate a preemptive excuse. Does Maidana need a helmet to go with his gloves? I can already see the excuse after the fight. "He wouldn't have knocked me out if I would've been allowed to wear my helmet". Lol...

Thank god your day job isn't the position of clairvoyant because you'd fail at it miserably. Because I posted a situation that may be brewing between these two camps leading up the final week before the fight you assume i'm a maidana fan...based on what exactly. I've been accused on this site of being a fan of everyone now...now it's absolutely official i'm a fan of every boxer on earth. Please for the sake of laughter point out what part of my post indicated i'm supporting either side...I need a good laugh...site is riddled with idiots man.

If you read this article In the link I post at the bottom. It talks about how REPORTERS are TOLD ahead of time. EXACTLY what things they CAN or CANNOT ask. And if they go beyond their boundaries, they WILL NOT be ALLOWED to interview Mayweather again. So everything you read and everything you hear reporters ask Mayweather is to make him sound positive. And as soon as you hear certain quotes or phrases that he always seems to say.

It's to let the Reporter know. "Change the subject, I don't like that question" ... for instance when you hear Mayweather say "LIKE I SAID BEFORE..." or "I'M NOT HERE TO TALK ABOUT THAT..." That means "after I finish what I'm saying, ASK A DIFFERENT QUESTION"...

If the reporters don't oblide by the guidelines or write positive things. They risk the chance of not being able to interview Mayweather again.. And interviewing Mayweather or Pacquiao is ALWAYS GOOD WORK and/or news for a reporter.

EXAMPLE: Remember when Mayweather went to jail. NO REPORTER WAS ALLOWED TO BRING UP "WHY HE WENT TO JAIL". They WERE NOT ALLOWED, TO REMIND THE PUBLIC WHY HE WAS IN JAIL. INSTEAD REPORTERS WERE ONLY ALLOWED TO TALK ABOUT "HOW BAD AND AWFUL MAYWEATHER WAS TREATED OR HOW BAD HIS HEALTH WAS BECOMING FOR HAVING BAD FOOD OR NO BOTTLED WATER IN PRISON.. HOW HARSH HIS CONDITIONS WERE IN JAIL. YET NOBODY SEEMED TO MENTION "UH IT'S CALLED JAIL" NOT "MGM RESORT" .. It wasn't even PRISON.. It was COUNTY JAIL.. ANYBODY CAN HANDLE COUNTY JAIL.. FOR 9 MONTHS even... IT'S PRISON THAT'S HARD TO HANDLE..... ANYWAYS... NOW THE LINK CLICK HERE ON WHY MAYWEATHER IS HATED

How or why is fighting at 174lb for a 154lb title considered logical?

[Weebler I]

all the more wonderful if maidana actually won. he would get titles for both divisions, right?

yea it would be great for boxing if Maidana ended up with the 154lb title...get real

In this instance Fat Dan is correct, the #wbcisdisgusting

dude, thats not special. Celebs do that all the time. Its either that or they come on the interview themselves and say they wont talk about such and such or Im only here to talk boxing. He's in a no win situation with the domestic violence stuff and plus it involves his kids an family so he's not going to want to talk about that, especially to a bunch of reporters where half of them dont like him anyways.

However, dont paint him like he says that about everything. As far as I know, that is the only thing. He got asked a ton of tough questions in his own gym the other day. They asked him about the Pac fight, gloves, Ariza, and everything a million times. What else do you want to hear asked or what else do you think he told them not to ask

I agree with you that ALL celebrities are like that I guess.

To stay on 'recent topics' and to give you a 'recent example'.. He was asked by a reporter... "In the first fight with Maidana. The first gloves were not approved. But the 2nd pair of MX gloves and even the Reyes gloves were APPROVED by the NSAC. So why didn't you let him fight with the gloves, the NSAC did approve?."

And Mayweather's answer was .. "I'm not here to talk about that. What happened already happened." And the reporter of course, moved on to another question.
