    No one was forced into anything, and we're going to get to see a real superfight that has been a long time coming in Mayweather vs. Mosley. This is the single fight that makes Mayweather vs. Pacquiao falling through bearable.

    Did you hear what he said? "He's not a PPV attraction". A very true statement at the time.

    Like I said, Mosley is now a huge fight because of his name thrown around everywhere in the past half year or so. It's clear to most people now that Mosley is the man to beat at 147.

    I don't get why you'd think this if Floyd has called him out more than once in his career.... I'd understand if it was someone like Paul Williams or something, but he called him out.

    What the ****?
    This was post margarito.

    Same mosley with less buzz from the win.

    It's smaller now than it was in july.

    Floyd is a ****ing moron.

    Void was boxed into a corner because Pac made a fool out of him. Now it so appears that Void wants Mosely to throw a fight with so he can save face. I hope Mosely refused to to such for any amount of money.

    Personally, I think that most boxing fans still didn't give a **** that Shane beat Margarito at that point in time. A lot of super casuals prob didn't even still know who he was. It really wasn't until he stepped into the post fight of the JMM fight that he started getting mainstream. After that his name was thrown around like crazy during the Floyd-Pac negotiations.

    It's all about masses who are gonna buy PPV's, not the hardcores on boxing forums, I'm afraid.

    Void will not fight Mosely unless he gets Mosley to agree to throw the fight. Void is a damned coward.

    I'm not going to argue about Floyd-Pac stuff, I'm over that.

    But, there's an interview of Ellerbe of this month saying that Floyd just told him to make the biggest fight possible. I can't find a link... but, it would imply that Floyd really doesn't care who he fights, as long as it makes money it makes sense.

    Mosley is just the biggest fight right now.

    Bro you're ****ing ******ed. You wrap your head around stupid core ideas of yours instead of actually thinking outside of the box. You show that you have no business sense. Boxing is a business.

    GBP planned this fight out a long time ago. Floyd, Oscar, and whoever else from GBP put Shane in the ring after JMM to give him exposure. Shane isn't a popular guy and beating Margarito didn't do much for him for casual fans. He's getting carried by the bigger names in the business. But in the end I'm glad for Shane because I think he deserves a big fight like this.

    You just said the mosley/mayweather fight is bigger now than it would have been after the margarito beating.

    You are extremely uneducated.
    Don't talk about boxing to me, you are clueless.

    This video proves my point. Over half a million views and this video was put up in September of last year.
