Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather's Australian Tour Demands Outlined

[Dr.Pepper]

It's pretty mind-boggling how basic concepts of physics completely go over some idiots' heads.

It's not the weight of the gloves that constitutes pillows, it's the composition. Eight ounces of feathers weighs exactly the same as eight ounces of lead, but which would you rather be slapped in the face with? And ten ounces of horse hair weighs exactly the same as ten ounces of posturepedic foam, but which would you consider more pillowy? Therein lies the concept of pillow gloves versus punchers gloves...it's the composition, not the weight.

Do you get it now, or do you need Floyd's remedial reading tutor to translate that for you?

"Nuff said.

You are dumber than your Idol Pactrash...

8oz gloves ain't pillows wee fella'.

Oscar made Floyd were 10oz gloves.

Refusal of the drug testing is evidence in itself. Note: i didn't say proof before you start crying.

Well, actually it isn't. Pleading the 5th in court is not the same as admitting guilt.

Even if it were, Pacquiao never refused drug testing. He just refused to give blood 14 days prior to the fight (for various reasons, none of which are PED related), a position he changed very quickly when it was hung around his neck.

Pacquiao has been fine with basically any drug testing protocol proposed since 2010. If you think that makes him some kind of cheater, then you'll never be convinced by any amount of evidence or reason.

it is kind of funny reading his demands & then having his visa revoked... didn't Tyson have his Australian tour cancelled because of visa issues? I bet they welcome manny there with open arms...

"oscar made me fight in 10 oz heavyweight gloves, i feel if we had fought in normal 10 oz gloves it would have been more exciting."

Damn if only floyd has listened to....himself. I guess he forgot his own words and didn't want the maidana fights to be exciting. too bad.

Great to be king unlike the motel 8 manny stayed at in miami lol

[Real Hero]

I'll bet he will not eat M&M and gummy bears after the fight with Pacman, like Maidana eating cookies after Floyd Jr's 1st fight!

[Real Hero]

Queen Gummy Bears...f uckin COWARD!

Instead of deflecting the subject with a "played out" accusation that has been debated endlessly in multiple threads, why don't you try to help Big Dunn with his rebuttal to the main subject of my reply? Backtrack to where I started with comment #91, just to make sure you're getting everything I said in context.

To make things easier on your lazy mind, I'll just repeat here my question to Big Dunn: So would you concede that it's not inconceivable that he also wants to be "comfortable" in maintaining his "0"?

[I hope I don't have to search for the link to the video where Floyd harps on having to be "comfortable." I just recall it's in one of FloydHype.com's video interviews by Ben Thompson.]

LOL...just as I predicted, a "pot calling the kettle black" type of reply... from someone too ****** & mentally deficient to comprehend basic physics. Or are you just being willfully ignorant to concede that there are punchers vs pillow gloves in each of both weight categories of gloves? You're hopeless, dude. I'll waste no more of my time in further trying to pound knowledge into your peanut brain. Later.

[The Big Dunn]

There's "comfort" in being punched in the face with foam versus horsehair gloves.
There's "comfort" in having more room to run around in a larger ring versus smaller.
There's "comfort" in having a ref who will break up uncomfortable encounters.
Etc.
Etc.
Etc. ... whatever "diva" demands he'd want in negotiations, to gain any "comfortable" advantage to ensure a win & preserve the 0.

See the connection yet?

Time will tell if we see whether he's more "comfortable" in earning $32+mil versus $120+mil.

So how is Floyd's quest for comfort "played out" when the reality still exists, whereas there was never a shred of evidence of Manny being on peds and the accusation was "played out" years ago?

Glove choice is not a big deal. Been done for decades. Vegas ring at mgm is standard 20x20. Ref choice is not made by bigger fighter it's made by commission. So basically you made up stuff to fit your agenda. That's the same thing as "Manny is on peds" is.

If you want a real discussion, I am here. But please. Be an adult and post facts. If your only point is Floyd hate, carry on.
