This is frustrating, with all this catchweight stuff, people waiting for other fights, other fights be delayed, fights be called due to cuts, etc. I guess just cause I've only really started getting into boxing over these past few years, but it does tend to be frustrating
Does this seem to be a bit excessive this year??
the fight wasnt selling, and after seeing clottey completely dominate cotto at certain points of last nights fight i think mayweather may have the confidence to fight him, and that would be a money fight
Here's my theory.....
Ticket sales sucked. Mayweather is co-promoting it, and thus wouldn't get as much money as he needs, and wants. Thus, gets injured, postpones the fight, and they reschedule it for the weekend of Mexican Indepedence Day in September. A weekend with a history of a big turn out for big fights. Right now, there is no big fight scheduled for that weekend, so move it to a date where they hopefully will get better sales. This is a guess of course, but we'll see. ;D

Its the poor ticket sell and not Floyd's lame excuse why the fight is being posponed. Rumor is GBP will push the event on the Mexican independence day.

:lolhaha: joke joke ... ;D
Even if they push the fight to September weekend of the Mexican Independence Day, that PBF-JMM fight will still not sell well... Mexicans loves to watch a boxing war NOT a boring tune-up fight between two master counterpunchers...Quote:

You can't blamed me coz I presented here my conspiracy theory weeks in advance saying either PBF or JMM will claim to be injured so that their fight will be postponed coz in reality it's selling very slow...Quote:

If the Mayweather vs Marquez fight will be reset on September then there will be be no PBF vs. PacMan. PacMan-Cotto are already in the works per Bob Arum during Cotto-Clottey Post fight conference.

There is no love lost between Bob Arum and Floyd Mayweather.
It's PBF's fault when he fell from the couch and injured his ribs...;D jokeQuote:

I just can't believe that Floyd would attempt to pull off something as BS as skipping the Marquez fight and moving on, was never totally thrilled about the fight but that would be a bitch move period. I don't think he will, he may, amazing I know, be hurt.
A little update:

Mayweather dogs it with bruised ego, x-rays show L'il
"It's a legitimate injury. We have talked to a doctor. My understanding is that it is muscle related. It's a tough injury for Floyd because he was looking to fight twice this year. Now he is probably only going to get to fight once."--GOLDEN BOY CEO RICHIE RICH SCHAEFER TO SPORTS ILLUSTRATED.
Unconfirmed reports have Floyd Mayweather Jr. suffering from more than a rib injury which is said to have caused cancelation of his July 18 PPV bout against Juan Manuel Marquez.
The ultra arrogant Boxer We Love To Hate is said to be recovering from an extremely acute and badly bruised super ego which was evdiently damaged over the weekend as Manny Pacquiao accepted the 2008 Fighter of the Year Award and then was showered with love and respect by 17,000 Puerto Ricans (Miguel Cotto) fans at Madison Square Garden.
"I tried to get Floyd away from the TV and the Internet this weekend so he would not see all that needless glorification of that tomato can from the Philippines," Mayweather right hand and left hand man Laughing Lenny Ellerbe said. "I figured let;s get PBF over to a strip joint and let him make dollars bills rain on some dancers. I wanted a distraction from the parade of good Pacquiao news but I didn't get it done."
I am also hearing from an impeached source in Las Vegas that PSB, Pretty Sick Boy, is under the exclusive and expert care of a medical trio at Valley Hospital. The troika consists of Dr. Moe, Dr. Larry and Dr. Curley.
A preliminary check of one medical report indicates Mayweather may not be able to participate in his beloved sabong for at least six months. But maybe he can claw his way back into that.
Someone familiar with x-rays taken of Mayweather’s sore and not spare ribs say they reveal nothing except for:Remnants of three cheeseburgers with ketchup;Four right hand shots thrown by a mini flyweight who makes Ivan Calderon and Rodel Mayol look like BOTH of the Klitschko Brothers;What looks like a note reminding PBF to pour more “duck sauce” on feared opponents such as Antonio Margarito, Shane Mosley, Miguel Cotto and, listed as Enemy Number One and worst threat, Manny Pacquiao;Unasnwered tax penalty letters from the IRS.
o my.... hahahahhahahahahahah;D

I somehow imagine that Cotto's style can make Floyd shine and look great. Not so sure about Cotto's power lately and his speed and defense is nothing compared to Floyd. Cotto could pull it off of course, there's always that chance, but I would give Floyd the edge on this one.Quote:
Reason being is Cotto is no longer the same fighter and Mayweather strongly believe that he can take Cotto out now
I wonder if all these fights being cancelled and posponed have to do with bad economy = people not buying luxuries/entertainment:-\.
Cotto has become a "smarter fighter." I don't think any1 expected him to KO Clottey. But, heck, he did knock him down with a jab!
Usually I refer to smarter fighters as "b****es", but I have nothing but respect for Cotto. He has stood in the furnace with some big hitters (Torres/Judah) and outboxed others (mosley/marg).
For PBF he will have to apply that relentless pursuit we have only seen shadows of in the past few fights. He's just so damn patient now. IMO that won't work against "the cash cow".. oops I mean "the ass clown."
As much as I hate Floyd viscerally, I am certain his injury is real, I don't see much how it would pay him to postpone the whole deal. At worst, he has an injury but it's not to the ribs and he lied about it to not hint the opposite camp.
What "boughted"?? :confused: It's BUYED!! ha ha ;D joke jokeQuote:

Seriously, I thought ticket sales is kind of slow... Why there's so many people complaining what they gonna do with their "boughten" tickets... ;D
.
Huh? I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic or not, there are too many stupid people on here, but boughten is the correct tense in this situation.Quote:

Off-Topic:
My English is bad but I'm still trying hard to post in the forums...;)
I think "purchased" is the right synonym to use in order to avoid some confusion... Just my opinion tho...
.
you can use boughten or purchased or bought or any number of words.
Those who have BOUGHT not boughten.
Technically, boughten is not accepted.

Hope that clears things.
Bruce lee you are wrong; that is part of an older english, as it has adapted, boughten is usable in a grammatical fashion. Hence why it is in webster. Bought and Boughten both exist in past and present tense. Usually boughten is used in pass tense in modern language, and likely will adapt into "the" word for pass tense "buy" in the future.
Teath is correct, is a regional thing. (thang) "Bought" is used in some parts of the US and "Boughten" in others. I'm not so sure if the origin is a UK vs US thing.
Update: Sports Medicine Advisor 2009.1: Rib Injury
i.e. 3 to 4 weeks to heal, 3 to 4 weeks to catchup on the training=September.
The Associated Press: Mayweather injured rib cartilage, can't train
Mayweather injured rib cartilage, can't train
By OSKAR GARCIA – 8 hours ago
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Floyd Mayweather Jr. has damaged cartilage in his ribs and will stop training for his comeback fight until a doctor says he can resume.
Richard Schaefer, chief executive of Golden Boy Promotions, told The Associated Press on Monday that Mayweather has been in tremendous pain since suffering the injury during training on Thursday.
"He tried to work through it. He really did not want to postpone the fight, but it came to the point where he could barely sit," Schaefer said. "He could not train, he could not move and there was really not much of a choice."
Mayweather(39-0, 25 KOs) was scheduled to fight Juan Manuel Marquez (50-4-1, 37 KOs) on July 18 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
Schaefer said both fighters have committed to rescheduling and a September date has been mentioned. But promoters and the fighters won't agree to a date without the OK of doctors.
Mayweather's ribs are not broken, and the former five-division champ plans to see a doctor this week, Schaefer said. He said he did not know exactly how Mayweather damaged his cartilage.
"Right now he cannot go and train, he cannot work out, he cannot run, he cannot hit the heavy bag and the speed bags and jump ropes and all these kinds of things," Schaefer said. "He definitely will need some additional training but again, Floyd is such an amazing athlete_ and really on top of his game — that I think it will be relatively easy for him to get right back into it."
Cartilage connects the ribs to the sternum, and can tear away after direct blows to the chest, other trauma or particularly violent coughs and sneezes.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo injured his rib cartilage during the team's season ending game at Philadelphia last year, a disastrous 44-6 loss in which Romo fumbled, was sacked and benched. Coach Wade Phillips said a flare-up of the pain caused Romo to collapse in the shower afterward.
Mayweather and Marquez were scheduled to fight at a catch-weight of about 143 pounds, eight more than Marquez has ever fought and the lightest weight for Mayweather since 2005.
Mayweather hasn't boxed since knocking out Ricky Hatton in December 2007. He was slated to fight a rematch with Oscar De La Hoya but instead abruptly retired last June, while still considered the sport's pound-for-pound king.
Now, many believe Manny Pacquiao holds that title after he beat De La Hoya and Hatton in fewer rounds than Mayweather.
It's possible that Mayweather and Pacquiao will eventually meet in the ring if Mayweather beats Marquez first.
But promoter Bob Arum also wants to set up a Pacquiao-Miguel Cotto fight in November, the earliest Cotto can get back into the ring after the welterweight's win over Joshua Clottey on Saturday.
Cotto won by decision but left Madison Square Garden in New York with a big gash over his left eye that required six stitches.
Associated Press writer Adam Goldman contributed to this report from New York.
Been away for a few days, gutted that this one is postponed. Nightmare. Was really looking forward to it. Atleast as a miniature consolation the Kahn Kotelnik fight is only postponed for three weeks.
Thanks for the scientific explanation for the injury but its the promoters word and no one else.
Can this be verified? I can't understand why Marquez' camp is so cooperative and silent.
My little knowledge about training for a fight (very little compared to some in this forum) is that you plan your training program for the fighter to reach his fighting form peak a few days before the fight. This would throw Marquez off big time. Normally the handlers of the opposing party would complain and ask for proof of injury. Yet we get full cooperation from the Marquez camp.
hmmmmm
Its just a guess....Quote:
