    I wonder if Floyd would like to have his ex (not 50), cook him a nice hot meal about now. the little chump is crying about how many calories he needs, YET during training, he was eating bags of cany an burgers and fries. doesn't sound healthy to me. I can't wait to see how much whining that little woman-beating ***** will be doing in another ten days. I hope he does something stupid and get about a year.

    Emmanuel Steward Commentary (Pac-Bradley Round 1):

    "I still have so much respect for Manny. He carried this sport and kept it alive for the past 8 years. He's responsible for keeping boxing in the headlines....he hasn't dodged anybody from 122lbs to 154lbs..."

    I'm really thinking hard at the moment if I should listen to you, turbotime or emmanuel steward? :rofl

    I'll bet his rich little nuts are cold on that steel toilet. I'd like to see some pics of him at the end of the month.

    Yeah those fights with David Diaz instead of Guzman or Raheem, and the fights with Clottey, Margarito, and Marquez 3 instead of Floyd, Martinez or Mosley surely kept boxing afloat. :patsch

    Steward: "Manny hasn't dodged anybody from 122 to 154"

    Oscar set the tone for welter PPV's , also his gate receipts are still much higher.

    Oscar was featured in PPV events from his early 20's , yet Floyd has only really got going in his early 30's .

    Also golden boy are still at the heart of generating these numbers , and who is the head of golden boy?

    I say the same about Pacquiao , non of these fighters would be making these numbers without Oscar.

    We now expect to pay for these big fights , when it only used to be the heavies who could generate these revenues.

    Floyd will surpass oscars gate in less fights in the next 3 fights .....

    Why are you bringing up oscar being a promoter in ppv sales?

    Oscars biggest ppv is vs mayweather, it took Oscar about 18 ppv fights to do what mayweather did in 3 ppv fights....break the ppv record.
