JM: Alright, let’s talk about another possible match up for Lil’ Floyd. Some people think that a Cotto/Mayweather fight might resemble the Leonard/Hagler fight. What are your thoughts on this?
RM: Wait a minute. How the f*ck did Leonard run laps aroung the ring without hitting the mother f*cker and winning? You got to understand that here’s a guy thats crazy anyway because he took 5 ½ years off without a fight, had two detached retinas and took on the baddest motherf*cking middle weight out there at the time and beat him easy. That just goes to show you that whoever wrote are said that, they don’t know sh*t about boxing. You know what Leonard said after that fight right? He said that after the first few rounds he (Leonard) knew he had him because he was easy like a six round fighter. That’s what he said about Hagler.
JM: Well let’s get back to Cotto. If they were a fight between Floyd and Cotto, do you think that there would be some type of stipulation in regards to the size of the ring?
RM: What difference does it make if Floyd decides to dance, box, or fight? Floyd don’t got to fight him in an 18 foot ring. A ring size don’t win fights anyway. Floyd is the champion. You got to understand that some people are always gonna have something personal against someone that talks and talks about their ability to win.
Remember this, when Mike Tyson came on to the scene, he talked all that crazy sh*t, but when he got his a** whooped by Buster Douglas, he got his act right. OK, then he got a couple of wins again, and then he starts talking that sh*t again. Now all of a sudden, he faces Evander Holyfield and he gets his a** blazed again and the next time they fought, he quit like a f*cking coward? And what happens then? He quit talking that sh*t.
Now forget about those a** whoopings from Holyfield and Douglas, he comes back to fight those white dudes and oh he got the dog sh*t whipped out of him. I said oh know he got his a** beat by a club fighter. So, my point is he fell faster than he came up. He had all these knockouts and didn’t have a whole lot of miles on him, and he was washed up and beat by a damn club fighter after all that talking. But you know what? People didn’t mind him doing his talking.
