    Tyson Fury in a press conference said he is afraid of David Haye but I think he was joking. We'll soon find out.

    Haye didn't want to sit next to Wladimir during an interview in the UK because Wlad gave him "Bad Vibes" :lol:

    Genaro Hernandez admitted to relatives there was a big chance he would lose his title to Floyd weeks before the fight.

    ".... Im a rich coward"



    That being said, I think this quote is taken somewhat out of context. I actually don't think Floyd was afraid of Pac but he came irrationally close to saying it from time to time.

    Mayweather admitting he was a rich coward against Pac.

    Mike Tyson saying Foreman is an animal and he won't fight him.

    Do the voices inside the heads of Sturm, Geale, Barker, Quilin and that french guy he beat, count? Because they are terrified of GGG.

    I wish I was wrong...middleweight is stacked with talent and if those guys find their balls, it could be the brightest division in boxing once Floyd retires.

    None of GGG, Sturm, Geale, Barker or Quilin fight in the same division as Floyd. Where's the relevance?
