Floyd Mayweather vs Sugar Shane Mosley [May 1st]

[Rumpelstiltskin]

Floyd has always talked shit. I don't the 24/7 revealed anything new.

 

[Johnny Truelove]

yea these 24/7 episodes have been pretty lame the mayweather/marquez was a lot more entertaining...

 

[MOREBASS]

Which bodyguards are you talking about? Floyd's or Shane's bodyguard (the sleepy brown look a like)?

All of 'em. I don't care to watch any segments on the body guards, let alone their stupid workout regiments. LOL


All good, I just hope the fight is good.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

I think the fight is going to be OK. Floyd is going to get booed big time in this one cuz mosley is going to be chasing him all night, I don't see floyd taking too many risks in this one.

 

[drunkaholic707]

i aint payin for this ill be drunk yellin retarded shit while watchin it at a homies hoping mayweather gets laid out

 

[MOREBASS]

LOL, there are hella tickets left for this fight!


I'm gonna be out there, but these stupid idiot promoters need to realize that selling the tickets to brokers first and real fans second is probably not a good business model for success.

Stop being greedy and let the fans buy the fucking tickets. That's what they fucking get for trying to rape everyone through the brokers.


Makes me not even want to support these fucking slime bags by showing up to the fight. Vegas should be crackin regardless though.

There have been plenty of times where I try to get tickets (Anaheim, LA, or LV) for a fight and I am literally on ticket master's website the second it goes live. I hit refresh, enter the code, and everything says sold out except for the $600 plus seats and I end up not even going.

So most of it goes to the brokers, which if you know someone you can get pre-sale codes. Which ticket master has sent me occasionally, but its mostly for UFC stuff.

Then there are thousands of people in India hired by the brokers hitting refresh just like me, buying up all the fan tickets.

At the end, I've seen a ton of scalpers stuck with tickets trying to sell them at face value or half.

 

[Tragedy]

i didn't even want to support the fight but both my bro's are off and i gotta pitch in. i was fine with watching it off a stream online. fuck it..

 

[Tony]

I didn't order the Holyfield fight so I could save my money for this one and Holyfield is my favorite boxer off all time.

I think the first round is going to tell a lot about the fight.

If Mosely wins the first round, we're going to have a fight on our hands.... because that means Mosely will probably jump out to an early lead and put rounds in the bag early. I don't see Floyd trying to come from behind and trying to knock Shane out. It's not going to happen.

If Floyd wins the first round, Shane is in trouble. Big trouble! Shane is going to have to go out there and take this fight to Floyd the whole fight and not try to get into a boxing match.

Shane will win a fight and Floyd will win a boxing match.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

first round don't mean shit! Shane is going to come out rusty, he hasn't fought in like 16 months. I suspect he'll lose the first three rounds before picking it up.

 

[Tony]

I believe the first round will tell a lot about this fight.

We should know how it's going to play out by the end of the 1st.

If Shane comes out rusty and Floyd senses the rust, it's going to be over early. Not by knockout but Floyd will cruise to a 12 round UD.

If Shane isn't rusty then we're going to have a good fight. I think it depends more on how Shane looks. And we should know by the end of the 1st.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

almost always the first round is a feel out round with neither guy doing much of anything. Maybe that wont be the case but typically fights on this magnitude they just paw at each other for 3 minutes.

 

[Tony]

I hear you but I think Shane is going to come out smokin'....

 

[WYNO707X4]

floyd going to attack mosley's nose early lol

Good quick writeup by G.Leon of Boxingtalk.com

THE COONERY OF FLOYD MAYWEATHER, JR.
By G. Leon

While defining coonery better than Webster's ever could, HBO's most recent edition of 24/7 exemplified the ways that boxing's undefeated pound for pound Picasso, puts his foot down his throat further than his harshest critic ever could.


The position of Leonard Ellerbe, Mayweather advisor and CEO of Mayweather promotions, could be in jeopardy.

Especially if Shane can fill Ellerbe's current role (without having to watch Floyd get his toes did) by holding PBF's feet while he's doing sit-ups.

Mayweather's words. Not mine.

Considering how much more he does for Floyd for a mere one percent, or 10% of what Roger Mayweather makes for playing patty-cake with his nephew, it's a shame Ellerbe lacks the necessary relation to earn more of the money that Mayweather boasts he keeps "all in the family."


What few people realize, is that Floyd Mayweather Jr should be kissing Shane Mosley's ass.

As Boxingtalk.com first reported, Mosley had no contractual obligation to his partners at Golden Boy Promotions prior to signing for this mega-fight on Saturday night.

Had Mosley simply said no to Mayweather's request of USADA testing, what would Floyd have done? Fight Nate Campbell or Paul Malignaggi?

What could Shane have done?

How about sign with Top Rank to get 50-50 across the board on all of the money for a Pacquiao fight instead of a guarantee plus upside to fight Mayweather AND give him a rematch clause?

Since he's going through with the USADA testing, should a clean Shane Mosley have to give Mayweather a rematch coming off a 16 month layoff with Pacquiao out there?

In my opinion, the answer is a resounding hell to the no!

These are the things that happen when your negotiator also represents the other side of the fence.

Never have I been more sick leading into a fight of this magnitude.

If you believe Mayweather's claims to be requesting such rigorous drug testing in order to clean up the sport are not predicated on his financial woes, why did he fail to make a single statement about the current state of commission regulations in a state as prominent as Nevada during his 18 months off?

If Boxingtalk's claims relating to Mayweather's financial woes were false, wouldn't "Money" have spent $50 and frivolously sued us by now? If the story were false, after years of exclusive covrerage, would it be possible for our axe to cut so deep that it inflicts irrepable damage after one negative, but accurate story?

One also has to wonder how much more jewelry Mayweather would own if the remarks about the bullshit security he used to have (as opposed to the "the best he pays for") are true.

Too bad his not so secret service wasn't on board when them Astros rolled into Top Rank's gym with them Rockets.

man i hope mayweather loses for all that wining shit he did when he could of fought pac man. they wanna drug test and all that shit. that was bs.

 

[drunkaholic707]

i aint really that much into boxing whats the under card lookin like what fights should i look out for

 

[2-0-Sixx]

^^^Saul Alvarez vs Jose Miguel Cotto. Alvarez is the 19 year old red-haired 31-0 Mexican who is going to be a future star. Keep an eye on him. Cotto is 31-1. Should be a good fight and a good test for Alvarez.

 

[bigface]

I don't reply much in siccness. But Saturday you will see why Mayweather is the best in boxing and why Manny doesn't want to fight him. Mosley is going to get beat up Gatti (god bless) style this fight..
