    Not on the day that the fight is announced for.

    I know maidana isnt Mexican, but i have a feeling Mexicans love him purely for his style.

    Floyd in reality gives zero shits about his 'little bro'. (probably thinks he is an obnoxious poseur riding his coattails...)

    This is just PPV salesmanship, nothing more.

    Neither of these matchups matter, they're both safe opponents and guaranteed Ws.


    Pacquiao, / thread.

    NO its just another bullshite defense against another slow-footed face first guy, who he holds all the advantages over and if people continue to support these types of mismatches with their PPV dollars Mayweather will continue to duck any real challenges.

    It was a ruse, which most called the day it was announced. A prank typical of Floyd.

    Maidana wasnt the plan all along, he wasnt in the mix till he beat Broner which he was a 6-1 underdog. so that wasnt the plan all along

    Great, I get to watch another Mayweather 12 round UD. BRONER IS NOT FLOYD. Thats like comparing a Toyota to an F1 car.

    Void could care less about Broner. He wants a high-reward low-risk fight. For someone that gambles a lot on sports he sure as hell doesn't like to gamble in the ring.

    I am always right haha, at least Amir is different to the usual opponents and he has a possibility of being KO'd

    Or maybe Floyd knows how much of an absolute joke Amir Khan is that he refuses to be involved in such a fight.

    I'll admit, I was kind of looking forward to seeing that, but at the end of the day Khan is sorely undeserving right now and Maidana is a champ and coming off a big W. (over a Floyd clone no less, albeit shitty Floyd clone, which makes it all the easier to hype the PPV)
