Mayweather: "I Respect Mosley Because He Stood Up Like A Man And Agreed To Be Tested"

By a sudden twist of fate, floyd now respects mosley!

That one is funny. :rofl

 

to pull his tooth off yeah.....but to put on his hand to numb it to hit harder or not to feel the pain of a punch......right on!

 

LOL...Are you honestly trying to compare the OJ simpson case to this situation? OJ, there was evidence. he just got off by having a good ass lawyer. There is NO evidence against Manny. HUGE difference. PAC doesn't need to allow Floyd to dictate the negotiations and make up the rules for manny. He's not in the driver seat and neither is Manny. They both agreed to the split and the fight should have been made...without the demands. For christ sakes....Just fight. Don't come up with all this BS about only fighting "UNLESS".....if Floyd feels he's better than PAC then just fight him and beat him. Vargas was all roided up and DLH whooped his ass. The problem in making this fight was suppose to be about money but it all came down to the demands for olympic style testing which was just ridicoulous.

 

translation: "I respect Mosley because he did what I told him to."

doesn't surprise me at all. i don't think mayweather would even talk to someone who gave him friction of any kind unless he was getting paid for it.

 

floyd has been proven to come in over the weight limit where as manny has never been proven to be on roids:good do you understand?

 

Pac has come in over weight twice and paid commission fines.

Floyd never paid commission fines because the JMM fight was set for 147.

 

Then what did he pay 600K for again? The hell of it?atsch

 

To beat up the little man.

 

Here:

"Marquez, who has never fought heavier than 135 pounds, comfortably made 142 pounds, two less than the 144-pound contract weight.


At Mayweather's request, nobody would speak publicly about the contract weight throughout the promotion that kicked off in early May and continued into the fall when the fight was postponed from July 18 because of a Mayweather rib injury.


However, several sources with direct knowledge of the contract told ESPN.com all along that the contract maximum weight was 144 pounds, three less than the 147-pound welterweight maximum.


But after Friday's weigh-in, Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer finally addressed the issue, telling ESPN.com, "The fight was contracted as a welterweight fight with an agreed upon weight of 144 pounds. However, there were pre-negotiated weight penalties built in."


Schaefer would not disclose the dollar figure, but another source with direct knowledge of the contract told ESPN.com that the penalty was $300,000 per pound if either fighter was overweight.


According to the source, the Marquez camp knew Wednesday night that Mayweather would not make weight because Mayweather's team made overtures to Golden Boy Promotions in an effort to have Marquez agree to change weight on the bout agreements to be filed with the Nevada State Athletic Commission.


However, Marquez's contract had already been filed reading 144 pounds, according to commission executive director Keith Kizer. But Kizer said the bout agreement was retrieved from the commission by Golden Boy Promotions and changed to 147 with Marquez initialing it.


Mayweather's contract with 147 pounds was not filed with the commission until minutes before the weigh-in. Kizer said it was supposed to be filed on Wednesday.


Kizer said the Mayweather camp asked to file it Thursday and he said OK, but that deadline also came and went.


"We were very unhappy with the lateness of Mr. Mayweather's contract," Kizer said.


Kizer said that had the bout agreements not been changed to 147, Mayweather would have faced a fine from the commission in addition to whatever penalty he had agreed to pay Marquez. For being two pounds overweight, Kizer said the penalty would have been 10 percent of his purse, or $1 million. Had he been three pounds over (147 pounds), the figure would have jumped to a 20 percent fine"

I'm sure you'll find a reason to call this bull****...:roll:

 

Who's Mayweather to start dictating the rules of the sport. They have boxing commissions for that. Mayweather should just voice his opinions regarding testing and move on, but to make Olympic style testing a conditon of a fight, if the overseeing boxing body doesn't enforce this type of testing is ridiculous. But it this way, if Mayweather was the better fighter, he'd win anyway.

 

Still sticking with this?

Since when does any words that come from the mouth of a Mayweather mean anything or is of any value to anybody these days? Lately, I take any Mayweather comment as comedic at best.

 

floyd is DEFINATELY baiting pacquiao!!! :deal

 

There was no actual evidence against O.J., because if there was, he would have went to prison. With the exception of cops, people don't get off when there is actual evidence against them. If a fighter feels an opponent is on PEDs, he has every right morally and legally to ask for extra testing. Why would you risk your well being if you believe your opponent is on something? There are no big fights where they "just fight", because negotiations have to happen and for more than just money. If Pacquiao is clean all he had to do was agree to the testing and there was no reason not to. Instead we got dumb excuses for reasons why he wouldn't take them.

I see you ignored the 2nd part of my post, so I'll post it again:

Champions negotiate all of the time and that is normal. Didn't Cotto give in to Pacquiao's demands? Didn't Baldomir give in to Mayweather's demands? Didn't Hopkins give in to De La Hoya's demands? Didn't Hagler give in to Leonard's demands? What makes Pacquiao so special that he doesn't have to negotiate and make some concessions?
