Tomorrow's fight will not help Floyd's legacy

your an idiot and a critic. look at yourself and your situation before you point the might finger I suggest

 

Lets just sit back and enjoy the fight because its here and we will all be watching it because we are boxing fans. He deserves full credit because who else is there apart from Pac so he gets full credit from me but he wont beat Mosley, something tells me Mosley has his number in the same way Margo had Cotto, loaded gloves or no loaded gloves.

 

Wasn't Mosley the one that scared him shitless after the Marquez fight?, wasn't Mosley considered the one who beat the most feared man planet earth has ever known?, wasn't Mosley supposed to be the one to scare Mayweather shitless after that performance with fools claiming he will never EVER make this fight(Freddy Roach one of them)?, isn't Mosley the official #1 Welterweight right now, or is he no longer #1 because Mayweather is most likely to win soon like Baldomir all of a sudden transformed in the rankings of idiots?, isn't Mosley the one that also supposedly scared Pacquiao away and made Roach publicly admit this isn't a fight they will take and Mayweather should do so instead if he's "serious"?

As predicted, Mosley is now cherry pickings too like Margarito and all others were going to be considered cherry pickings if Mayweather did decide to fight them. What happened to "Mayweather stuttering back into retirement as Shane calls him out!!!!"?

 

Haters gonna hate, must mean he is doing something right.

 

i will give him full credit. shane is old and way past prime, so what. You can only fight who ever is in front of you. Talking about boxing is so much easier than doing it. It actually would help his legacy considering what mosley just did to marg.

 

Perfectly said

 

True, I was one of them, but I've stfu since Mayweather stepped up to the plate. Now there's nothing to complain about, he's back doing what he's gotta be doing.

People are complaining because they want to see Mayweather get beat, not fight, get beat, and they don't think its happening with Mosley. Whereas boxing fans were pissed because they wanted him to just get in the ring with the other welters, that's it, just cut the star crap and get in the ring.

 

this thread is actually ridiculous.

even the most hardcore of haters must respect that since mosley is "the man" at WW mayweather literally could not have picked a harder fighter to face!

pac wanted no part of him.

mosley is widely considered the top dog at ww, if this fight didnt come through, i can guarantee this ***** of a ts would say something like "gayweather ducks shane, the one man he knows would beat him"

 

If he wins this fight is perfectly set up for Floyd to enhance his boxing legacy and more importantly his financial one.

By beating Shane Mosley, Floyd will have beaten the #1 WW in the world, #3 P4P fighter which will definitely increase his legacy. On the financial side Floyd will have sold according to most projections 2+ million ppv which is more than the PAC/Cotto and PAC/Clottey fights combined with a man in Shane Mosley who is considered less of a draw than Miguel Cotto. Floyd will demand minimum 60/40 and Arum will have to take it. Drug testing won't be a concern because the NSAC is already looking at having a form of USADA style testing in place for the fall. Arum, Roach, and PAC completely overplayed there hand and now if Floyd wins it will bite them in the ass!

 

Funny. I clearly remember you saying Cotto was cherry picking a title off of Michael Jennings when Arum issued an ultimatum to him stating fight Jennings in February 09 or sit on the shelf until June.

 

This is all pure nonsense. Margicheato was glorified B level fighter at his best. Only his suspect victory over Cotto elevated him. Mayweather would not be worried about facing or beating a piece of **** like Margarito. Margarito was never a big enough $ draw to factor into the picture.

 

:good i have the same gut feeling

 

Floyd's afraid of Margarito huh?


Arum said while Mayweather would have taken the $8 million to fight Margarito, he asked for a $10 million guarantee to fight opponents such as Miguel Cotto and Ricky Hatton, when Arum was only willing to guarantee $7 million.
Arum said Mayweather also asked for $20 million to fight De La Hoya, a fight Arum said he wasn't interested in participating in.
"That's not in the cards," Arum said. "He wants $20 million for the De La Hoya fight? It's not there. Sometimes, my man, you gotta know when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em. We'll talk about things down the road."

I am not a Floyd fan but to say he should not get credit for beating a solid great and a welterweight champion is not true. He should get credit if he wins. Shane is no push over. He is over the hill, but who can fight anyone when they are exactly prime?
