MAYWEATHER: THIS ISN'T A GENTLEMAN'S SPORT, THIS IS BOXING!

[@langa209]

Floyd has fought top competiton records of fighter when they fought floyd Ricky Hatton 43-0 Oscar De La Hoya 38-4 Juan Manuel Marquez 50-4 sharmba mitchell 56-5 Zab Judah 34-3 Shane Mosley 46-5 Miguel Cotto 37-2 Victor Ortiz 29-2 Arturo Gatti 39-6 Jose Luis Castillo 45-4 Phillip Ndou 31-1 Gregorio Vargas 40-6 Jesus Chavez 35-1 Carlos Rios 44-2 Tony Pep 39-6 Genaro Hernández 30-1 Victoriano Sosa 35-2 Henry Bruseles 21-2 DeMarcus Corley 28-2 now show me Manny's competition not even close lmao

[@kingq01]

All of you who say Floyd runs. Show me what fight you're talking about, back up your statement with resources! Who did he run from?

[@hoosiernative9668]

That is why Floyd stayed undefeated because every fight he saw it as a war and not just a sports competition. That's why boxers now in days don't take risk or are afraid to get hurt because they see it as a boxing match or fight...naw this is life or death and you better see it that way or you'll loose. Ain't no one watching out for you other than yourself

[@cezarcaruntu]

Not from the US or Britain, so I could enjoy the fight without all the crap patriotic s*** bias that most of you guys had. And it felt great. Floyd is really a showman. You may call him arrogant or whatever, but one thing is clear: the guy can box and he uses his brains in the process. He proved once again, if that was still necessary, why he's the best.

[@Orangewind]

That's how the heart is built, through hard-core training, and the right way; preparation is key to success. You get the thought of losing out of your mind through the course of training. You work on all your flaws, all of the possibilities that could happen to you... so by the time you step in the ring, you are not only prepared, but you are absolutely prepared for anything to happen.

[@GetDamage]

woah, I have never seen any of his earlier interviews. he lives up to my expectations. This man is a very smart guy. He seems pretty nervous and someone who plans well ahead. No wonder he has good defense and fast reflex.He knows a lot about his opponents fighting style and the ins and outs of boxing and everything that associates with it. Very smart fighter. In boxing and in life.

[@dorothyfuhrmaneck1445]

Your crazy if You think Floyd competition was better than Pacquiao

[@Black-my4un]

@@dorothyfuhrmaneck1445 You realize out of all those you named the top 4 are common (fought both). You are a fool. Btw Pacquiao beat NOBODY as good as Canelo (who Floyd beat). You Philippine poverty fight fans are idiots.

[@Orangewind]

two serious injures that needed surgery, not to mention he got surgery after the Hatton fight, again from an injury that may have happened in training. Tszyu was being counted out in the Mitchell fight, but since he knocked Sharmba out early, people forget his past: the injuries, the inactivity, the fact he was having trouble with Jessie James Leija (and didn't look sharp), etc. And of course, he was a big 140 pound fighter who was still trying to make 140,

[@onlyjoetee]

Different era,takes 4/6 months to put together a floyd fight,can only do 2 a year max.He explained it,or didn't you listen!!

[@Hannibalscousin]

You heard wrong then if that's what you think, the reality is he retired, at the time Pacman hadn't beat ODLH or RH. Actually what he has done is come out of retirement FOR Pacman, he's probably got a bit of ring rust, so he is getting rid of that on a guy that gave Pacman "nightmares" JMM in a tune up fight. Imagine that, he is tuning up on a 3 weight world champion - mark of a true great. P.S haters want him to be in trouble with the IRS, but its a lie. Hate is a deep thing.

[@Orangewind]

And by the way, I don't judge a person or root for a person based on where they live/born...I root for whoever I like, no matter where they are born/live. To me, the World is my country. my top 5 fighters that I like to watch, two are from the States.

[@Orangewind]

It's like this: when you are taking a test for school, if you know what is on the test, and have the answers, how can your confidence not be high. It is when you haven't studied, haven't put in the time, that by the time test time comes, doubt creeps into your mind.

[@vazer111]

its not arrogance if you can back it up

[@mfeld418]

Actually Cotto fought very well against Mosley, the only two worst Cotto fights were against Torres and Corley, but recognize this Cotto is a supe boxer and highly skilled with unreal power an deceptive speed, he was snapping Mosley's head back with hard shots, but I will agree that he aint messing with Floyd, Floyd will capitalize off of Cotto's mistakes, Mayweather will str8 rip Cotto, but Cotto will bust Floyd up a little, but Mayweather would either get a UD or possibly a late TKO over Cotto

[@Tweezy316]

people really have a misunderstanding of floyd's career. for years he called out oscar, shane, and kosta. look it up on youtube

[@NormenBatez]

floyd is so smart in boxing its crazy.

[@pointsur]

in this case, it's not the speaker, it's the listener. i understand him fully. he doesn't need speech classes, all he needs to do is knock people the F#@! out.

[@mfeld418]

Actually Cotto has mentioned Mayweather's name before, and anyway Cotto said he'll fight anybody they put in front of him, he's a true skilled warrior, now reality-wise Floyd will beat Cotto down but it will be a tactical bloody war, Cotto has a puncher's chance against Floyd, but anything can happen, if Cotto catches him like Corley did, he may possibly have a chance.

[@Hannibalscousin]

The "small guy" called him out. So, he didn't pick him he accepted the challenge. Or was Marquez bluffing?

[@jstyles448g]

if he knew hed win those fights..... then damn he is the greatest to ever wear a pair....let me ask u a simple question. who should mayweather have fought? that u really think had a chance...and dont say a c plus fightter like margarito lol....

[@Orangewind]

1 year of inactivity can kill a fighter, let alone 2-3. We saw what happened to Ali missing 3 years, and he wasn't even in his 30's. It's bad enough elite fighters today only fight a couple of times a year because of the payout (which they deserve) and the long promotion(s) that are needed, but not being able to train because of injury is terrible. Injury that needs surgery can also disrupt the body's own balance, which may never get to full capacity again, especially a man in his 30's.

[@Orangewind]

which he had fought his whole career at. Not Hatton's problem, it is Tszyu's, so I don't bash Hatton for something he has no control over in this situation, but he did fight Tszyu with certain tactics knowing all that I have mentioned. For Castillo: the guy was shot, it was clear in his previous fight, not to mention how he looked from the opening bell in the Hatton fight.

[@djnos2000]

exactly, Floyd makes money off the peeps who pay to see him lose, thats why they dont give him credit, at the end of the fights, you dont like shit talking stick to watching golf, you cant blame the man for winning you can blame the losers who dont hit him, knock him down or out.

[@iota1962]

@jabmalassie can he write his name?

[@iota1962]

@kingq01 nice point to bring up. i think there is a rule when to and when not to punch an opponent. in olden times when a boxer's glove separated from the canvass the other boxer can punch him. i guess the punch was acceptable and seen as sportsmanlike other wise the noise in boxing world would be hard to contain like what happen to the floyd act.

[@Orangewind]

What Floyd is saying is on the lines of truth; however, it isn't good to put down your opponent because it takes away from your victory. What he says about Tszyu and Castillo, was known and thought about by those that understand sports, fighting, and the human condition. But, people are to blind, even "smart" ones, because they don't see what is actually going on. Tszyu: 9 rounds in 3 years...

[@TomatQKinG111]

[@Tweezy316]

I feel sorry for Pacman he's supposed to be the best boxer in the world and yet all his fans are immature lil kids from the philippines how sad.

[@BlackOwnedDollars]

@Shirro384 Cotto and Margarito had their shots. Cotto when Floyd faced Gatti and he didn't run for a chance to fight him and Margarito before Floyd faced Zab Judah. Instead of taking that fight they declined. Now Pacquiao was blocked from fighting him when Bob Arum told him now and how does Floyd duck Ortiz, when he isn't even active or pursuing a fight? Be smarter than that.

[@Orangewind]

From "The Sweet Science" SPEEDBAG:- The union between Mayweather and Smirnoff almost collapsed before the tournament even started. The egocentric Mayweather wasn't following any directions and wanted to quit several times during rehearsal. A frustrated Smirnoff acknowledged that Mayweather was blessed with God given talent and could win the entire competition.

[@Orangewind]

But because of Mayweather's stubbornness she was leaving. With Mayweather feeling hurt, he went after Smirnoff and apologized. Mayweather admitted to Smirnoff that she is the boss." This releates to "Dancing with the Stars"

[@xxxxlrdxxxx]

The only time Hatton didn't look so great was when he made the step up in weight, and of course this made it difficult, Mayweather says he is really 130, so i guess it wont be a problem this time. I understand some he faced were not in there prime, but he still beat them, and most of them very convincingly. Mayweather himself has struggled on two occasions.

[@Orangewind]

He makes a great point about fighters should take control of their careers and promoters are shit, taking a huge cut, and leaving the fighter with the least amount when it is all said and done. Not sure on the math, but it would probably go something like this: Uncle Sam: 55%, Promoter: 35%, trainer 10%, Cut-man ??? {I hear 50 thousand from major fighters}, plus cost of travel, training costs {which includes paying sparring partners}, etc. You might be able to get certain things written off.

[@kingq01]

@iota1962 Were you saying that when Manny hit Marquez while he was down? Yeah the 3rd knockdown in the 1st round; no need to punch the man while he's down, but not a mention of it. It has to be just pure hate for Floyd.

[@Orangewind]

All that said, I think Hatton is a top fighter, no doubt. And he will be a tough fight for even Mayweather, especially given Mayweather hasn't fought up to his own standards/self in a bit. Hatton's short arms are also good for his deceptive speed.

[@Tony92981]

Y'all can write what y'all wanna write but if y'all ain't writing my check it doesn't really matter what you write. LOL

[@Orangewind]

I agree with you on the point Floyd's act is uneccesarly, however, maybe there is something to what he does mentally for himself and to his opponent...I don't know, but it works for him.

[@djnos2000]

he's saying that he used to pretend the sandbox was a ring when he was a child, how can you call him a discrace, the man gives to charity, puts kids in school. all thats out of the ring, the man just knows marketing thats all

Boxing used to be a gentlemans sport.

[@kennyporter6484]

That's the dumbest shit ive ever read lmao. boxing has never been a gentlemen sport ever. golf is a gentlemen sport, boxing is a brutal sport

[@JaySmurkzTV]

LOL she must not know about how the mafia used to run boxing

[@JaySmurkzTV]

***** lol... she don't even realise how it's safe to say 99% of great boxers never came from middle to upper class families. Not to say there aren't any gentlemen in any other social class but boxing came from the street.

[@Ahmed1756]

+Thesalee Lizardi NEVER.

[@JaySmurkzTV]

To be fair though.. Henry Cooper seemed to be a gentleman. But that's a one off out of so many LOL

[@Orangewind]

So in other words, I am getting exposure, for myself and the fight, all while being able to train. The only bad part of this is I am a bit worried he may over-train...but I guess Floyd knows what he is doing and the way Floyd trains, it is probably overtraining for most anyway.

[@Orangewind]

Ray Robinson might have been the first or one of the first boxers to really take control of his career. Maybe Jack Johnson did as well, nto sure. Ali should have. Ray Leonard I think did as well, only needing a lawyer to make sure the papers were all correct.

[@Orangewind]

Maybe we can also look at it as Floyd's need to control so that he doesn't look bad. Most, if not all people with "Great" talent have some issues, especially Egocentricities {which I think is a word}

[@Orangewind]

thebruce: Floyd's getting heat joining "Dancing with the Stars": They say, "Floyd's so cocky he is trying to be like Jones Jr., trying to prove he can do two things at once, that boxing isn't that important, blah, blah, blah" Or, Floyd is doing it to give himself an out if he losses, blah, blah, blah. When in truth, Floyd stated, Dancing with the Stars is viewed by 20+ million, and it can keep you in shape.

[@langa209]

exactly ppl hate this man so bad its crazy he is the best i can bet my life a fighter cant go undefeated his whole career even if u cherry pick caus skill has to be involved it kills me to see ppl hate greatness so bad caus they lives aint perfect and they hate to see a zero on the right side

ive never been impressed with dlh, he looked good against over the hill fighters but he didnt do well against Quartey, Wititaker,Tito,and Shane those were fights to me where if Oscar was vitorious with out controversy, I would give him credit, He never won a big fight with someone with equal skill, hes on the same scale as shane to me

[@djnos2000]

thats not trackstar, Like Floyd said before, Cotto has never ever mentioned his name or called him out Y? last weekend Cotto Still didnt say mayweathers name hmmm whos really the trackstar ?

@playmaker1169 He didnt run from cotto. You have no proof on that.

why should pac fight floyd? floyd is a WWF fighter with ortiz and that ref. leave the three alone...let them enjoy the scripts of WWF fights. they belong there.

right....plus he fought everyboody! its a video on here where he calls out de la hoya and shane loooooong ago...not his fault they didnt take it...who the fuck cherry picks, shane, oscar, zab judah, diego, castillo, ortiz, cotto, hatton, marquez, gatti and corley??? thats 1 hell of a cherry picker lol

that's one of his trainers....

[@vazer111]

de la hoya fights floyd mayweather and there bot in their 30s and mayweather beats him they say oh de la hoya woz over the hill then when manny who was 29 and de la hoya hu was 37 and manny k.o him in the 8th round they say this is the greatest thing we have seen

[@touchtone101]

Did you know floyd mayweather amateur record was 86-6. Hes 6 loses were all by 1 point...So it couldve gone both ways. The man couldve been a undefeated amateur fighter, so now what makes you think hes going to lose to Cotto, Paul williams, Joshua Clottey, Berto, Steroid Shane mosely, Plaster Margorito or FAGMAN? Floyd can beat all those guys. None of them are at the same skill level as Floyd. The man will retire undefeated after he cleans out the welterweight devision.

[@kristianmina7528]

Are u still alive? Floyd is 50-0 brother u were right 😂😂😂

Then take the criticism like a man and stop complaining. I like Floyd and the way he play his fans but he's also full of contraditions.

[@xxxxlrdxxxx]

Well bro you know your shit so i cant argue with all that. I am a boxing fan, but not as knowledgable on all these things as you. I have followed Hatton's whole career, and he has achieved a lot and beaten everyone infront of him, and to see some loud mouth clown shout he is a bum who only beat over the hill fighters is not a good reflection of things, because his fans believe into what he says.

[@jflayva]

So umm did Mayweather beat shane? or he beat shane cos he was over the hill.. Yo floyd how come u didnt fight shane in his prime ?

[@Juanx3]

he retire thinking he was the best and he always guna be the best but he is not even close to be on the legends of boxing he still has to face paquiao and margarito to get considered one of the best boxer of all times

[@Tweezy316]

winning 7 titles in 7 divisions is nothing anymore. Look if there was 1 belt in every division that would be a HUGE accomplishment. But with 5 or 6 belts in every divison it means nothing. Floyd has won the OFFICIAL WBC Belt in 5 different weight classes and noone has ever done that. So learn boxing before you try to brag about Pacman. And by the way if you haven't noticed everyone wants Mayweather! I never saw anyone get in the ring and call out Pacquiao! That's why he's fighting Clottey lol.

[@xxxxlrdxxxx]

look forward to the right, it's still a long way away really lol. c ya then we will talk about should hatton give him a rematch

[@xxxxlrdxxxx]

On his whole act or whatever it is. Hatton said he was like that with him away from the camera's aswell....so i mean this is really a childish pathetic way to act, and this is where the hate comes from towards him. most big fights dont have a english fighter. i was a big fan of tyson, i wanted mayweather to win v de la hoys, i changed my mind halfway through the fight, as mayweather refused to attack. now his actions in the build up to this fight make me hate the man.

[@Tweezy316]
