Duran and Leonard made ridiculous comments. Like the fab 4 again is untouchable.

    You say ducker would stop Duran:lol: Change yer name to Dip****:deal

    Duran would have beat the **** to a pulp at 135/147. You've only got to watch the Castillo/Hatton fights to know that.:deal

    No way of making money? You do realize there's a movie about Duran that's coming out and Robert De Niro is in it.

    The 2013 biopic "Hands of Stone" will star Édgar Ramírez as Duran, Robert De Niro as Ray Arcel and Usher as Sugar Ray Leonard

    Now I'm going to go out on a limb and say they both make a few bucks off this.


    As to why the comments, my guess is they're disappointed he never pushed himself to the limit the way they did. It's what boxing sorrily needs.

    Well I dont know the exact facts but you would be pretty naive to think he is winning.

    Gamblers will always tell you about there wins but the losses always get you in the end.
    Sorry it wasnt the Goergia Bulldogs he dropped 3 million on Michigan to upset the Bama Crimson Tide.

    You havnt watched 50 Cent discuss Mayweathers Gambling then.

    He said he was betting like 5000k while Floyd would spend 250,000 thousand. And his stomach couldnt take it.

    I doubt they'll make all that much.

    They are playing no part of the movie besides offering their names to the production.

    True that most people lose but who is to say for sure that he's losing.

    Dude it's 50 cent. He's been butthurt since their split.

    His promotional venture has been knocked off the face of the earth since Dib lost.

    If you can't see that, you're ignorant.

    And actually many reports say that he didn't actually make the bet. He bet against Michigan.

    He only told the press he bet on Michigan because he's from there. Rofl.

    This is boxing you ******, it doesn't matter who shows up in the stands, it matters who the guy is across the ring from you.

    And it's a great point. This man, in the 15th year of his professional career...way past his prime, far from his best weight...not only fought the middleweight champ of the world and someone who is considered on many lists as the greatest middleweight ever...Duran made it competitive and close.

    ALl these guys are Natural WW & MM. I would expect them to beat a super featherweight. Now if Floyd was a natural WW, he could defeats each of those guys & they probably beat him as well but this isnt a pure white wash like you guys are making it out to be.

    Exactly...but hey you know more than all of the boxing writers, trainers, fighters & promoters. All of these people are in agreement that Mayweather is one of the greatest fighters that ever lived, is the greatest in this era and could compete in any era. You think this is a conspiracy by everyone involved in the sport?:D

    Gambling Addiction Statistics.
    2.9% of Americans fall into this category.

    Families with people suffering severe Gambling Addiction have a Increased number of Domestic Violence and Child Abuse.

    Sound familiar.......:deal

    I think 50 cent is not Butthurt just being smarter with Money and in the spotlight.

    Also your telling me USA today got the report wrong.

    Floyd is all about money. He would fight anyone if the money was right. The only reason he hasnt fought Pac is cause of Arum. He will never do business with Arum.

    :rofl:rofl@ You thinking a fighter who is the best fighter on the planet wouldnt fight for large amounts of money.

    http://www.tigerdroppings.com/rant/p/41088781/Floyd-Mayweather-betting-167-million-on-Michigan.aspx

    *Monday, April 8th - 3:56PM UPDATE* IBN has learned from sources close to the Floyd Mayweather camp that the champ not only won 8.7Million on his multiple bets on Michigan Saturday (Beating Syracuse) he is now putting up the 8.7Million he won + an additional 8Million tonight and letting it ride on Michigan +4 ---


    LOL!
    LOL. Good joke.

    It's a ****ing epic troll job and you are buying into it like a fish.

    You even have guys saying "Is this similar to the troll job he pulled on us when he told us he bet 3 million on Mich"
