    " The logic here is that a dangerous fight against Mosley won’t likely attract a great deal of pay per view revenue compared to a fight between Mayweather and Pacquiao.

    Mosley doesn’t have a huge following like Pacquiao does, meaning that a fight between Mayweather and Mosley wouldn’t do nearly as well in terms of PPV sales."

    Ok, now who was it that said he didn't need a dance partner? My point is regardless whether it's Mosley or Ronald McDonald, Floyd should be able to bring in good PPV sales as he suggesst correct?

    Thus this whole hesitation on signing with Mosley for chump change as he alludes to is all a ruse.

    I respect that.

    I 100% fully believe Floyd will sign this fight. He may not have wanted or planned to, but he now has to, after the fall out of the Pac fight. It is a miscalculated move, he has to now or even his most avid followers will start turning against him. So he will...

    I don't know man. If it really boils down to the money, why didn't they get the fight with Pac done? Not a fan on Floyd's antics but I don't even see how he would turn down this fight with Mosley.

    why not fight mosley and pac and then you have 50 million? or if you the pac fight doesn't get made he doesn't even have 10 million. that ten million might come in handy one day when he's broke and has to greet guest at the mgm grand.

    if this is indeed true, it's absolute bull****. It's getting harder and harder to be a floyd fan when he continues to pussyfoot around some real challenges. I think the man is the best pure boxer in this generation and I personally feel he would beat both pac and mosley handidly but the mother****er needs to get off the pot already and fight. I backed him before, and still do, concerning the way the pac fight went down, but there is absolutely no excuse not to fight mosley if he is so sure of himself and his prowess inthe ring. A win against mosley will make the pac showdown WAY BIGGER than it would have been in march.

    hopefully a better source comes out and we know whats what sometime this week but damnit, that boy needs to **** or get off the pot.

    floyd's cursing to himself: "Damn that Haiti earthquake! I did not see that coming and didn't expect Berto to back off and now me and Shane are left with nobody to fight except each other...F*ck f*ck f*ck!!!!"

    maxboxing was reporting the fight is done just about, and we all know about Steve Kim, so maybe the fight is in ink or close to it already....HOPEFULLY

    Lets' hope it is.


    The sad part is, Pac fans are going to be more excited if the fight falls apart than if it does happen.

    I'm worried. The fight was supposedly a done deal a week ago. Yet, still no official statement on the fight itself. How long could it really take? I mean, Mosley already agreed to random testing, so what is the hold up?

    What is your point? Let them be excited for whatever reason. Doesn't have any merit on the fights itself.
