Andre Berto Cancels His Fight With Mosley After Earthquake In Haiti.
Sugar Shane has owned and been calling out Mayweather in the media lately and since PBF pussed out of the Pacquiao fight. Sugar Shane is available for a fight. Come on Floyd MAN UP and give us hard core boxing fans some excitement to give us the fights we want to see.

I seriously hope so. For boxings sake.
If anything this is easily a 1mill ppv and will put him in a higher ground position if he wants to renegotiate with Top Rank in the future. Win or lose.
Like Whitney Houston used to say alot when the show Being Bobby Brown was on, HELL TO THE NAW!!! After getting his ho card pulled by Shane during his fight, you would think he would be anxious to fight Mosley for the so called "disrespect" he said Shane did during the interview. I'll bet he won't until he's washed up or lose his speed then he would become a pitbull and demand a fight with Mosley .

Owned?
A real hardcore fan would know Mayweather called out Mosley and DLH 5 years ago when he was at 135. You forgot Mosley wanted to spend time with his family and needed to visit the dentist?
PBF pussed out? Who rejected the steroid testing? Manny and Roach said they need at least a 5-day window and Mayweather gave them 14 days. Manny, Arum, and Roach are liars.
GBP and Mayweather are finalizing the deal right now. The fight will take place in May with Olympic style drug testing. SMM said he would take OSDT for the fight to take place.

A real hardcore fan would also know that Mosley was campaigning at 154lbs at the time and if you watch the video Mosley doesn't say he's not willing to fight Mayweather. Mosley talks about how his plans to drop back down to 147 wasn't until the next year. Also if Mayweather was really serious about moving up to welterweight he should take on Margarito, who was the man at ww at that time. Wasn't that a great fight between Margarito and Maywea... oh yah forgot Floydy didn't fight any of the elite welterweights.
So let's see here, Mayweather wanted a guy who was fighting at 154 to drop down in weight without time to adjust to it. It's funny how you Mayweather fans give Pacquiao crap about De La Hoya being "weight drained" when Mayweather was looking to try and do the same to Mosley. Floydy was unproven at welterweight and was calling out a guy two weight classes above him. It had no-win written all over it for Mosley... if Mayweather lost to him at that time then it's because Mosley's too big.. if Mayweather wins it's because Mosley's weight drained/over the hill etc. To put it into some perspective it would be like Marquez calling out Mayweather.. oops again.. forgot that Floyd accepted a fight from a guy two weight classes below him. Better example, it's like JuanMa Lopez calling out Marquez. JuanMa is a boxer on the verge of stardom but if JMM was to take that fight win or lose it still bodes badly for Marquez.
Mosley did the right thing at that time, passed a fight with a guy who was too small and unproven at ww. Unlike some people Mosley doesn't seem to purposely try to make people jump up in weight to fight him *cough*.
The fact of the matter is this: Mayweather has finally filled out as a true welterweight and there's not an excuse left for him in the world to not fight elite level welters. Who knows who Floydy's going to fight next but I won't rule out Mosley as unlikely as it may be. However, a couple weeks ago when talks were failing with Pacquiao it was Matthew Hatton. Then last week Floydy supposedly had his eyes on Cintron.. then earlier this week it was Saul Alvarez.

Thank you my man, you sound like a hardcore fan like the rest of us who want to see Mayweather MAN UP and fight the best @ 147. It's not bout Mayweater, it's bout Boxing, Mayweather is a talent and needs to MAN UP to give boxing a shot in the arm, Delahoya and Pac have given us great boxing fights to get us excited, now it's time for Mayweather while he's still in his prime to give us something excited to watch, or watch MMA take over where you know they fight the best in their sport.

A name not mentioned who IMO should be is Sergio Martinez. I saw his fight with Williams and thought it much closer than one of the score cards indicated 119-110. The others were, IIRC 115-113 114-113 Williams. Martinez is a counter puncher who caught Williams off guard. I believe Paul underestimated him. It wouldn't have surprised me if Sergio had been given the nod. Williams's popularity IMO gave him the fight. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Martinez' name isn't coming up because he's already in talks with Top Rank to fight Kelly Pavlik.
I'd rather see Manny fight the winner of Mosley vs. Mayweather (if that fight happens) or even Paul Williams before fighting Margarito. _________________ Just chill and watch the new Dynasty evolve...

Agreed, I like to see Margarito win a few more fights to rebound for a big money fight. I don't know why Mayweather backed down of the Margarito fight, he was offered 8 million to fight him. I thought Mayweather would match up well with Margarito, but Margarito got a stone head, he walks right through punches to get some punches off. After Clottey who is a tough fighter, barely lost to Cotto, I think we will see Pac vs Mosely then hopefully Paul Williams

Well, Floyd supposedly got more money to fight Baldomir for the unified titles. Not that it's a valid reason, considering how highly people viewed Margarito at welterweight. I actually think that Floyd would've boxed Margarito's socks off, just like Mosley, except he wouldn't knock him out like Mosley did Margarito.
I don't think we'll ever see Pacquiao vs. Paul Williams. The dude is way too tall for welterweight and fights tall (which is why he's been the most avoided at the weight). I think Manny could do well against Williams at 147, especially after seeing Williams vs. Martinez, but I just don't see it happening. Plus, I think Williams is still trying to seek out that fight with Kelly Pavlik, so I'm not sure Williams will drop back down to 147 to fight again. _________________ Just chill and watch the new Dynasty evolve...

Likely HBO PPV. Pavlik's last fight was PPV and it was against a guy I haven't seen much of let alone heard of (and I watch a lot of boxing). _________________ Just chill and watch the new Dynasty evolve...

AT SUGAR SHANE MOSLEY CRIB! ME,SUGAR SHANE,DYNAMITE,SHARP,BIGFOOT,STEVE,BRO NAAZIM. SHANE N BERTO FITE WAS CANCELED SO NOW WE GETTIN READY FOR SHANE VS. MAYWEATHER MAY.1ST N VEGAS! D-MITE N SHARP BEEN UP ALL F'N NITE PLAYIN CALL OF DUTY LIKE BIG A** KIDS,LOL. I BUST ERBODY A** N DA UFC GAME THO...DEY WANT NOMORE WORK! 9 WINS STRAIGHT. NUTHIN TO DO BUT TRAIN N HAVE FUN SO WE GONE DO BOTH! 9 hours ago
Hopefully this means that Mosley and Mayweather have at least begun some preliminary negotiations.
However, I do think that Shane will have to make quite a few concessions to Floydy. Here's a list of points that might get touched:
- For beginners 60/40 split favoring Mayweather. If Floyd asks for more he's trying to avoid the fight.
- ODST testing.
- Even though Mosley is the current WW champ he'll probably have to enter the ring as a challenger.
- Billing will probably be Mayweather vs. Mosley
- Glove weights.. I'm guessing 10oz.. maybe Winning Gloves. Especially if Mosley brings up Mayweather's xylocaine usage.
- Ring size will be as big as it can get... 24x24
The funny part is I don't think Mosley will hesitate on any of those except for the financial split. Mosley seems to have a chip on his shoulder and knows that this will be his biggest fight ever regardless of what he has to "give up".

Mosely should get 40 percent which would be fair. We will see if Mayweather MANS UP and fights, with no excuses getting in the way
if this fight happens then this pretty much kills all the Mayweather was ducking Manny accusations
Mosely is clearly a more difficult matchup _________________ (bleep) Kawhi

not only does it kill those accusations, but it also makes manny look bad, because Mosely agreed to random blood tests before the fight. not only that, but manny is fighting Clottey, which to the casual fight fan is a no namer.
Floyd is fighting a big name fighter. Manny, not so much. _________________ KobeDunk wrote:
