    I am surprised no one in interviews has called Floyd out about this...

    "Khan has to get past Danny Garcia first"... "Pacquiao still has marquez problems" ...

    Well then why did Maidana get a fight when he had khan problems and Alexander problems? Cotto still had pacquiao problems etc. Floyd always comes up with a "A fighter still has B problems" yet fights a Berto who got Guerrero problems, Ortiz problems, and for god's sake Soto Karass problems.

    No reporter ever calls him out on. Someone shoulda had the balls at the press conference to step up and ask him "What about Berto having so and so problems with the 3 fighters he lost to in 6 of his last fights"

    Mayweather stated that '“He’s fighting a boring fighter, but he’s getting his biggest purse. I can guarantee you this fight’s not going to be boring. If there’s not a knockout, there’s going to be a lot of knockdowns and there’s going to be a lot of blood.'

    Basically all the backlash from his performance against Pacquiao (great performance and display of sweet science but boring non the less) made him need to give back to the fans via an entertaining fight which he damn well knows he cant give is he fights thurman or khan because he'd have to be in boring move,clinch,defensive mode all fight whereas with Berto's bum ass he's gonna stand toe to toe and embarrass him all night the way Lara just did to Rodriguez.

    Unfortunately we as fans would rather not pay $75 HD to see him pick apart someone whos not even fit to be a sparring partner.

    His performance against Manny was pathetic display of a broken system not a master performance.

    And why would anyone expect the media to do anything but act like mindless zombies. They have zero integrity. In pretty sure most of them don't know **** a boxing and just there to report.

      Most serious journalists in the media are college educated and know the difference between an athlete saying something to push buttons and something serious that needs a follow up question.

          haha, very astute observation.

          another one is that Khan has noone to blame but himself for not getting a Floyd fight irrespective of how many losses Berto has.

            Floyd has never said anything honest in any interview he has ever given. I think the journalists are aware of this.

              Asking sensible questions at a Mayweather presser/interview is a big no for the media. If they do that their media credentials get revoked & they get banned from his future fights/pressers & also his gym. This is why media people try not to confront Floyd on the ****** stuff he says.

                  Another thread where boxers have said **** & everyone acts like its gospel oh noooooooooooooooooooooo!

                  The fact is boxers can say ANYTHING & you be can be critical of ANYTHING they say or even things you believe they implied despite how they meant it or the context or w/e. Its some silly ass meaningless ***** though cuz you can do it to everyone notable in the sport cuz they got a mic in front of them all the time.

                    According to the boxingvoice, if you upset "Floyd", you will get banned from all the Al Haymon media access events

                    Floyd cant handle criticism
