Mayweather responds to Cotto on ESPN... (video)

Well the difference is that Roy ALREADY HAS a great legacy/resume and now goes for some dough to retire with. First chapter one and than chapter two. Floyd is going for the latter without fully developing the first.

 

once again are you implying that floyd is not a champion:deal

just because a fighter has a belt doesn't mean he is the real champion. are you implying that casa was the real 130lb champion:deal because the fight was going to get made at 135 if casa could beat freitas. of course he loss and wound up splitting the diego series so no floyd fight for him.

now you are making up scenarios of floyd wanting the "pittsburgh kid's" title. Floyd holds 5 wbc titles not 5 IBF titles. talk about lame you are a shameless liar, and your personal bias against floyd makes you look like a ****ing ******:deal

you still don't get it, you are attacking floyd for being a coward and a fraud (not a real fighter) yet when the same litmus test is applied to you, what is your response:deal you have never boxed professionally or been in a championship fight, so if you haven't done the same as floyd how can you attack him:rofl :nut

when was the last time mosley won a title at 147, I mean any title:deal are you implying shane is a better welterweight then baldomir or judah because he beat collazo :rofl

you are too dumb for stupid.:rofl read and weep *******:deal


Fight gets personal between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Bob Arum

Appleton/News Floyd Mayweather Jr. is suing his former promoter.


Without fanfare, which is a rarity in boxing,

filed a lawsuit against his former promoter,

of Top Rank, in

(

Mayweather claims that Arum shortchanged him on matches against

in 2006. In the lawsuit, Mayweather said he was due 85% of Top Rank's revenue from the Gatti fight and 80% from the Judah fight. He claims Arum has refused to turn over the records for accounting. Mayweather has asked for the statutory minimum of $10,000 on each of the five counts, but would be in line for millions in punitive damages on a breach of contract claim.
This could get ugly before it's over, making it the heavyweight slugfest of the year.
In a strange twist, Arum admits that he owes Mayweather money and said he has told Mayweather's reps why he isn't giving it to him.
"There's no question we owe him some money," Arum said. "There's no dispute there. But he owes us a lot of money, and the people he's involved with owe us even more. After 98% of the money we owed him was paid, we stopped paying him for a reason.
"We're owed ... in the millions. We welcome this lawsuit. We wanted it to be filed. We have counterclaims and cross claims against certain other individuals involved with Mayweather. This is just the opening salvo in a major battle."
Arum and Mayweather parted ways in 2006 after Mayweather paid $750,000 to buy out his contract. That was triggered by Arum's refusal to guarantee Mayweather $20 million to fight

, another Top Rank client, who successfully sued Arum to get out of his contract in 2001. Last year Mayweather and DeLa Hoya hooked up without Arum and fought in one of the highest grossing Pay-Per-View boxing events ever. Mayweather earned more than $30 million for the fight, and the two have planned a rematch for September.
Mayweather believes that Arum stymied his career during the time that he was promoting both Mayweather and De La Hoya (from 1996-2001).

on March 31. The 5-7, 150-pound Mayweather, the WBC welterweight champion and pound-for-pound best, will take on a 7-foot, 441-pound wrestler called Big Show.

two years ago bob arum and floyd were under contract:deal you are so full of hatred that you can't even see little things like this. what a ****ing loser you are:admin :thumbsup

 

Sorry **** TIME, its you who is the loser.

SRL? You said he wasnt a champ because of Pryor, But he was clearly 147 Champ and that had nothing to do with Pryor. But again, who expects you to see anything clearly:huh

Casa at 35??:rofl It was relevant at 30!! Of course you again ignore reality in favor of PBF's BS:yep

Spadafora? **** YOU YOU ******ED *****:yep I made up nothing and backed it all up a long time ago. Though REALITY doesnt mean a damn thing to you, so of course? You again IGNORE THE TRUTH.

I NEVER CALLED FLOYD A COWARD:nono I've called YOU THE COWARD:yep
I did call Floyd a fraud and he is by class after class avoiding certain fights and attempting to manipulate the circumstance with BS excusues. Rather being a CHamp and fighting for his legacy as real champs have. I have always maintained that Floyd can PROVE things any time by making the fights. If he wins? I'll respect it, but I wont respect excuses, lies, and angles aimed at taking the easy way out:nono

Again SSM is better than any fighter Floyds EVER FACED:yep The fact you're precious WBC labeled him interim champ should say something about his quality, SINCE YOU JUST WORSHIP THE WBC:rofl

Ok Arum says he owes Floyd money. You're ONLY POINT whatsoever:hey
What better way to settle the tab, than PBF vs Cotto? As for being under contract with Arum? SO WHAT!!! The fact that he isnt any longer MEANS FLOYD MAKES MORE!

Again **** time, PBF vs Cotto IS THE FIGHT!! It's what the world wants and will be a mega $$$ event. Arum would have to pay Floyd what he owes on top of Floyd's end for that fight. Cotto will be the one paying Arum ouyt of his end. So in the end, Floyd has money and respect to be gained but keeps talking **** about re-runs the world doesnt wanna see.

There are no excuse's!! It was team mayweather that wanted Cotto then. Floyd had his own advisors even when Arum was his promoter. Arum wanted Floyd vs Marg and Floyds peoples crafted the Cotto push to hurt Arum's stable. And now when Floyd has even more to gain? Its more obvious who he should be fighting and he's doing NOTHING but making excuses around Cotto. He could kill 2 birds with one stone but doesnt want 2

If that's P4P? That **** is worthless, just like u

lmao

 

Why does the $ matter so much to Floyd? Didn't they just say he earned 20 mil for appearing at WM (which I do not believe BTW). You earned 20 mil for a 3 weeks worth of work supposedly....Why do you need more $???
How bout since Floyd has enough $ already, supposedly such a monstrous fanbase (no matter who he fights), how bout he cements his legacy in to boxing finally by beating some top ranked fighters?! Hatton doesn't have any smarts/ any skills, DLH is kind of liek a Mayweather now and fights established stars (never liked him anyways), Baldomir (LOL), a shell of a man who was never in the same league Gatti, and Judah.
Your going to make a claim for best P4P fighter with that resume??? Your going to be recognized as the best of all time with that resume? PLEASE! Cotto has beaten the same opponents/ same level of opponents, has a big fanbase himself, and Floyd says the timing isn't right?
If Floyd is seriously as good as he believes he is, and considering the fact he'll probably retire soon (with a resume that isn't that great) he should be cleaning out the division!
I'm not saying anything against his skills, not saying Cotto will beat him for sure, but I am saying he's a ducking mofo that will NEVER be considered the man that he believes he is!

 

what have I lost again. unlike you I never claimed to be a fighter and never called another prizefighter a coward or a fraud because i don't like them personally:deal only a real loser whose ambition to be a fighter didn't match his skill or desire would call floyd a fraud. and that tag fits you to a tee.

your like a dog that eats its own throwup. well here it comes again:admin you said floyd was a fraud which means he is not a real fighter in your eyes because he didn't fight casamayor, paul spadafora and kosta zyu:deal even though floyd was clearly the 130 and 135 champion you said he was a fraud for not fighting casa and spadafora. That is a direct contradiction to what happened when leonard was challenged by pryor. in this instance spadafora, casamayor, or kosta never went to any floyd press conference and challenged him.

pryor had the sack to do that to leonard, have any of the fighters you call floyd a fraud for not fighting done that to him:deal

was casa recognized as the 130 ring champion or was it floyd. casa lost to corrales at 130 floyd didn't:deal

there you go lying again. just be a man and except that the "pittsburgh kid" was an overhyped, drug addicted, alcoholic who didn't even belong in the same ring with floyd let alone try and unify the titles. the floyd fight might have gotten some buzz if spadafora didn't look like **** against leonard dorin and victoriano Sosa:deal

so beating:

Genaro hernandez
Diego Corrales
Angel Manfredy
Goyo Vargas
Jesus Chavez
Carlos Hernandez
Jose Luis Castillo
Arturo Gatti
Zab Judah
Carlos Baldomir
Oscar De La Hoya
Ricky Hatton

all while coming from 130 makes floyd a fraud:nono you said if foyd wins you'll respect him, well the guy has won 39 fights in a row which makes youa liar since after winning all these fights against tough comp you still label him a fraud:deal fighting in his 4th weight class againsdt bigger fighters makes floyd a fraud:nut that must mean your a fool:rofl :nut


the only fraud is you perpetrating like you know boxing. all the while tooting your horn like you actually accomplished something of significance with your life:deal what have you done with your life that could measure up to beating anyone of those fighters listed above :rofl

So you claim floyd is a "fraud" which means in your mind he is a fake, not a real fighter. So explain to ESB how a fake like floyd who is not a real fighter could have defeated so many champions and remained undefeated.:deal because by calling floyd a "fraud" or fake fighter you are saying every fighter he has ever defeated is a fraud as well. so the only real fighters are bums like yourself who never had the balls to step in the ring and compete at a pro level let alone win 18 championship fights:admin :hey

and once agian you have no idea what it takes to be a champion let alone what it takes to get in the boxing ring and fight as a professional.:admin

what fighter at 147 has shane beaten that was better then baldomir and judah. are you saying that because mosley beat collazo he became the best welterweight in the world you are trying to live off the memory of shane who was never a great welterweight:deal

and you haven't made any point except that your a coward and the real fraud for never fighting professionally but disparaging floyd and his comp like something you could have easily done or that any fighter has already done.:deal

you are not the world and have no insight into what the world wants. 30 ******s on a message board calling floyd a coward and a fraud for not facing a particular fighter do not represent the world or the general public:deal

so the fact that bob arum owes floyd money from 2005 and 2006 doesn't seem to matter to you. that just went right over your head:huh floyd will face cotto when bob pays him what he was owed for the gatti and zab fights..until that issue is resolved you don't have a leg to stand on:deal floyd is not going to bypass millions in earned revenue to satisfy an alcoholic, never-was figthter on a message board with delusions of grandeur. Get your weight up kid before you tangle with me because I can see right through you:deal :admin :admin

 

ask that question when you have a family to raise:deal

 

You make some excellent points bigtime. People on this board are supposed to be boxing fans. I don't know why they would tear down the most talented fighter in the game; a fighter who is making the biggest fights and bringing the most attention to the sport.

 

As if a 10 million dollar purse wouldn't allow him to feed his kids:roll:

 

Like what?:huh

The truth is Floyds played the same games throughout. Floyd isnt bigger than the sport and the real legends walked the walk:yep

The most TALENTED fighter in the game should SHOW what that's ALL ABOUT:good

 

well here are a few names to start with,torres and paul which are current champs at 140, judah former champ, mosley former champ, quintana who just turn into a champ after beating the man who many said was a beast.... and lets just say cotto turn pro in 2000... has already an impressive resume... u can't disrespect or argue with that...:deal

 

fools like c-money can't see past their own hatred of floyd. it has taken on a life of it's on in their lives. the fact that floyd is so successful despite their hatred bothers them to no end.

 

so beating:

Genaro hernandez
Diego Corrales
Angel Manfredy
Goyo Vargas
Jesus Chavez
Carlos Hernandez
Jose Luis Castillo
Arturo Gatti
Zab Judah
Carlos Baldomir
Oscar De La Hoya
Ricky Hatton


doesn't take talent in your eyes:deal yeah you have some serious ******ation issues:admin :hey

 

why are you worried about how much money he has or how much money he wants. is floyd telling you not to make as much money as possible. stay out of his pockets jealous ass mother ****er:deal

 

Bitchtime? Go fly a kite!! You can type til you're ******* falls out and none of that will make you're claims TRUE:nono

How many times I gotta say YOU are the only 1 I've called a COWARD?
Why? Because you talk a bunch of **** about me WHEN it has no relevance to any of this discussion time after time. I've never called mexperience into the issues THATS YOU!! Its funny how you can talk all that **** when you've done absolutely NOTHING. As I said, if you are so enamored with my pro debut? Lace em up and I'll knock you the **** out:good

On 130? Well facts are facts!! Casa was unbeaten and held a belt before Floyd. Ring Champion did you say?? What you forget the arguments where you get trashed, huh?? Remember Floyd fighting for the NEWLY reinstituted RING belt against Castillo in 02? There wasnt a RING CHAMP AT !30:yep Floyd, Casa, Chico, and Freitas were the title holders and Floyd jumped on Chico as he was going to jail. Go yank the weiner a little more.

135? You can go watch the vid anytime you like on You tube and I laid the vid and the facts down. You're ****ing hero just said last week "if he got the best of me, whats that mean?" IT MEANS YOU KNOW YOU GOT BEAT BUT WOULDNT PROVE IT 4 REAL. Mr. P4P, eh?

Cotto has a better 147 RESUME, he's beaten BETTER FIGHTERS THAN FLOYD!! No one said Floyd accomplished nothing:nono They've said that he hasnt carried himself like the true legends he disses and hasnt fought the top opposition nor unified ANY WEIGHT CLASS.

As for Arum? Its clear you have NO DEGREES nor any business experience!! What better way to get the money owed AND STILL MAKE MILLIONS while taking away his enemy's best fighter??:huh

tangle with you Why should I? You're doing fine by yourself
