Floyd Mayweather and crew let loose in Las Vegas
While scanning the nation’s gossip columns for tidbits on this and that, there was a recent Floyd Mayweather Jr. sighting in Las Vegas that the Review-Journal was kind enough to print. Sandwiched between Prince and Dennis Rodman news was this item:
Boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. and his posse of models, tossing $10,000 worth of $100 bills into the crowd at OPM (Forum Shops at Caesars) early Saturday after Mayweather asked the deejay to play Fat Joe’s “Make It Rain.” Then Mayweather joined his galpals in drenching the crowd with 10 bottles of Cristal champagne, which go for about $1,000 a bottle. One particularly buxom female was seen with $900 in $100 bills stuck to her chest.
And you thought you were having fun.
mayweather is the man
Oh,,,,hes stopped blubbering now,,,see if he takes a proper fight!
Mayweather Jr. can’t be beat just yet. One Day he might slow down enough to get hit. Mayweather Jr. is the complete package.
I think floyd broke down because he couldnt handle the bashing emmanual steward gave him during the fight. he heard him, he always hears what the hbo crew says, and that crowd was quiet and disinterested. emmanual steward mocked floyds performance, his claim to greatness, and most hilarious/vicious he mocked floyds absurd comments. floyds ego cant handle it.
I really don’t see this guy retiring.
He’ll go down as an a nearly man despite his achievements.
He’s cherry-pickd his way through too many divisions.
Freitas, Mosley, Tszyu, Hatton, Margarito….
I’m not saying he wouldn’t have won them all. But…a slight on his greatness remains unless he finds competition amongst one of those fighters, still active.
Hatton is the natural fight, style, crowd and weight wise. But obviously DLH brings even more to the table.
floyd is so boring to watch. how can you guys think he’s so great? he dosent fight he runs and throws one punch at a time.hes fast with impeccable timeing thats it .he is squandering all his talent and thats why people are knocking him. he could very well KO these guys but choses to run around and throw a punch here and there.the other guy cant hit him because he’s running backwards all the time or using the turtle defense and throws his one punch that scores and takes off. he compares himself to robinson leonard and the likes,watch them and then watch him .is he nuts or what ? thows guys threw ounches and were quick on their feet. floyd is just quick on his feet ,he’s missing the most important part, the punching. now he’s old and cant get all that time back that he wasted,i think that to have that kind of talent and to not use it is just sad……
Not to sound like a total Floyd backer, but some of the comments here are totally off base. First off to the guy that talked about Floyd avoiding fighters, maybe alittle reading or watching fights would do you some good.
Po Po Frietas rejected an offer to fight Floyd, and if you dont believe me just go back and watch PoPo’s fight with Barrios, when afterwards Jim Gray asked him(Frietas) if he would know accept the fight with Mayweather. PoPo said “NO” I feel good at 130, Floyd is fighting at 135, I dont see myself in that weight for some time”. Shockingly enough in his very next fight Mr. Frietas fought and beat one Artur Grigorian at what weight???? you guessed it 135.
Its been well documented on the net that Little Ricky Hatton’s father has said that Hatton wasnt ready for floyd and that his son needed more time, they wouldnt be up for that fight until atleast late 2007.
Margarito rejected an offer to step in for Jab Judah after his lost to Baldomir. Arum who is Tony’s promoter stated that he wasnt willing to forgo a PPV date that had Tony fighting a ten lost fighter in Manuel Gomez, Arum said that he put alot of work into that PPV date that also had Brian Viloria, and Julio Cesar Chavez jr. A ppv that did 19,000 buys.
So if one were to actaully do some reading, one would know that Floyd has actaully avoided VERY few, if any fighters. The edvidence point to Floyd being the avoided fighter.
Which to a thinking man would make sence, here is a guy that is p4p, not very exciting, so Im ot going to get a huge payday,and I will most liekly lose. No shock that other top fighters seem to excuse themself from shots at the kid, only to claim later they want to fight him.
hihihihihihihihihihihiiiiii! floyd is not stupid to go fight mosly,margarito,haton,freitas and costia,he knows
that one of them or two could shit in he’s record.
the man plans to rest after one fight,let them
give hem a good challenger.
give hem mosly or freatis.
PBF has fought every top contender at 130,135, 140 and now 147. cassmoya,cotto,hatton, duck him. margarito, crintron, holt are calling PBF out, but won’t fight paul williams, when pbf punish them. they want million dollar payday. Moseley is only one that gets props, that is a good fight. make welter tourament . williams, margarito, cintron, holt, cotto, hatton, collazo,quintana,estrada. The winner gets PBF
