    I just hope the people who said that he would never fight someone like Mosley will give Floyd his props... but they probably won't.

    Floyd also says he's been dominating the sport for fifteen years.

    kinda stupid considering both guys are BLACK. Anyways, Mayweather is right. I can name off excuses for past opponents and future opponents.

    Lets take the popular one, Why didn't he fight Margarito instead of Baldomir? If he would have fought Margarito, Margarito would have been "tailor made" for him and not that good, and people would say he was ducking Baldomir because Baldomir beat Judah. Had he fought Baldomir and Margarito instead of Judah, they would have said the Baldomir win was a fluke and Mayweather was ducking Judah. No matter the course of action, excuses will be made and alternative opponents drawn up.

    actually, its people more like you who are the reason for the so called stagnation of black people in america. you are quick with the excuses and slow with the responsibility.
    you are correct that the odds dont favor success for these immigrants as much as they do for native born blacks. that is what is so telling about the mindset of the two groups.
    what i mean by being different, as an example, is that you want to be the loud, brash, disrespectful athlete but cry because you dont get the same respect and love that the humble respectful athlete does. so what do you do? blame it on racism of course.
    on to your next excuse. of course how you dress and act matters in how i base my opinion of you. you think i have several months to get to know the real you before i decide to hire you or not. you want the job then dress for the job and quit whining about how you look shouldnt matter. no one in this world is here to cater to you. you want hoodlums to get equal treatment, start your own company and hire them. sure hip hop and rap have influenced popular culture, but in my opinion its been mostly for the worse. 40 years ago it wasnt cool to call women bitches and hos and being a pimp or crack dealer was not a viable career choice.
    as someone allready pointed out, people like you elected barry even after he was a known crack head. you tell me if this isnt behaviour that would be considered different from any other group. yet you still want equal consideration in the making of policy. how about a little responsibility for the choices you make.
    i dont consider myself racist because i hold the same contempt for the trailer park redneck or the gangbanging cholo as i do for the excuse making black. they hinder the advancement of their own in their culture and american culture as a whole.
    any more excuses?

    excuses can be made for almost any fight. it's no reason fight's shouldn't be made though. so I honestly don't care about any excuses that will come after the fight, I'm just happy we're getting a fight that should have been made a long time ago.

    I see you chose to ignore my earlier post. You seem like you have racist tendencies.

    give me the post # and ill address it. i am on several sites at once so i may miss some things. i dislike certain small groups for the pollution they fill young minds with. it has nothing to do with their skin color but more with their philosophy.

    I love how Boxsensei's last 2 avatars Suge Knight (correct me if I am wrong) and a black female trumpeting her rear end with money in the background. Book covers don't matter but it is what you decide to show.

    Mayweather has to get props for beating Mosley. Even though Mosley is not at his prime he is still the third toughest fight available for PBF (after Williams and Pac). Any fighter who takes on the third most difficult fighter available should be commended. Even if that person is a prick.

    Mosley is a top guy at WW, old or not.

    i wonder if floyd's ever going to realize that the main reason people don't give him credit for anything is because they don't like him because he's an incredibly annoying dbag.

    He likes rap and women with big asses therefore....racism doesn't exist? I fail to see the correlation.

    Did Void demand that Mosley agree to throw the fight before he would sign?
