Well that's pretty cool if true. One of those "once in a lifetime" chance things. The kid better watch out because I heard Ellarbe is none too pleased that Floyd had an enjoyable conversation with someone other than him.
George Guest, 15, was knocked to the ground three times by an anonymous opponent while playing Fight Night 3 on his games console through the internet. He was so impressed by the fighter that he sent him a message asking: "Who do you think you are? Ricky Hatton?" The reply came back: "Actually I'm Floyd Mayweather." Mayweather, 32, is the only fighter to beat Hatton, in a title fight in Las Vegas in 2007. George, from Belvedere, Kent, initially thought that it was a joke but was convinced after Mayweather chatted to him online about his career. Nicknamed "Pretty Boy Floyd", Floyd Mayweather Junior retired as WBC welterweight champion last year, undefeated after 39 professional bouts. His last victory was in December 2007 when he dashed Hatton's hopes of taking the title in Las Vegas. During a career which saw him regularly described as one of America's best fighters of all time, he held world titles in several different weight categories. "I can't believe it, I went a round with one of the best boxers in the world, and he knocked the granny out of me," George told The Sun. "He was taunting me like Muhammad Ali." He added: "I didn't believe him at first but he started talking about his family and his fights and everything."
Could you imagine playing fight night against Tyson? I have to imagine that's pretty intense, specifically if he was having flashbacks to the Lennox Lewis presser.
Floyd has been ducking me for years, he should stop fighting bums like George Guest and get in the ring with me
