I said Mayweather avioded them !!!
Mayweather has avoided anyone who can make him look bad .
Casamayor won a Gold Medal whereas Floyd settled for a Bronze .
He should have fought Hatton at 140 but he hasnt .
Magarito clearly put the shit up ~Mayweather at a press conference and i believe he wants nothing to do with him !!
Learn to read or shut up !
Oscar may be should talk less or maybe practice his lines beforehand, I agree with you there pretty much, but you can't say he isnt good for the sport. His Golden Boy promotions is doing a lot of good things for boxing as far as giving boxers pensions and retirement plans and working towards having a singularly crowned champion in each division. He does a little bit more than just do nothing to take away from the sport. As for Floyd Mayweather, I met him once in Las Vegas at Crazy Horse. I was pretty loaded as I'd been out all night partying and stumbled up to him like hey what's up man, I just wanted to say hi cuz i heard you were here and I am a big boxing fan... He was totally a nice guy, really cool. he didnt have an entourage or anything, it was just him. Well him and about every dancer in the club. He was like pull up a seat and hang out for awhile. I was even like, hey I dont want to bother you or nothin...but he actually insisted I sit down and hang with him a bit and chat. I ended up talking to him about boxing, Delahoya and the Las Vegas night life for over two hours. Mind you, this happened back in 2004. Mayweather was talking to me about how he wanted to get the fight with him then really badly because he wanted to beat him so much. I'm not sure if it is the fact that his dad was involved in training Oscar or what it was but it seems like even back then, Floyd had this drive to prove he was better than Oscar Delahoya. So I don't know. I've always thought the best way to get an idea of someone's character is to talk to them one on one. Based on what I experienced, Floyd Mayweather Jr, is a friendly and really cool guy. He didn't say or do anything to make me think otherwise.Originally Posted by p4pking
The only problem is that...well, did you REALLY hang out with FloydOriginally Posted by diamonddavestafford

I mean if I had a chance like that, I'd get his autograph and take a few pictures with him. Any pictures ?
wow... thats bullseye right there man.. i couldnt have said it any better.....it true tho...odlh did pay his dues while fighting the best in his era...just like a work.... whoever has seniority gets first dibs on everythingOriginally Posted by Swashbuckling Gordy
"speed is the essence of war"
sun tzu-art of war
What other welter has a better resume than Floyd?You make no sense...What medal did Roy Jones,Tarver,J.Taylor,Cotto,etc.. get??The fact that you have a gold medal means nothing in the pro ranks...its just a boost when searching for a promoter.Originally Posted by Swashbuckling Gordy
You think Hatton is gonna beat mayweather?Its obvious that you know nothing about nothing...Just tell me where you come up with this BS??
No pictures. It was at Crazy Horse Saloon which is a strip club. They dont take real kindly to strangers taking pictures in there. I actually tried with my camera on my cell phone once or twice but it was too dimly lit to tell that it was actually with Floyd Mayweather that I was with. It's all good if you dont believe me; I mean for all you know I am some six year old kid who is making up stories, but it did happen. Maybe I should have asked for an autograph from him but I figured the dude probably gets harassed about that stuff all the time and I didnt want to be a bother to him. I was just thrilled he actually gave up some of his time to talk and hang out with me. I've never been one to make up stories. If I was, I'm sure I could have come up with something a little more exciting (like maybe a bar fight breaking out and running up and breaking a chair over some guy's head who happened to be trying to choke out Floyd Mayweather then we smoked a blunt with Tupac right before he got shot and went back to Mayweather's crib for an after party with six strippers and threw darts at a poster of Oscar Delahoya). I mean come on, THAT'S a story. But me running into him was a totally random thing. I was out partying in Vegas with my sis and brother in law, ended up meeting a group of people about our age who wanted to head to the strip clubs after the club let out. My sis and her husband left to call it a night, I went to Crazy Horse with these guys. At about 8 am they were out and I was gonna have one drink before I got a cab back to my hotel at the Flamingo Hilton, as I was getting it, one of the strippers asked about the gold boxing glove i had hanging on my chain. I told her it had been a gift from a friend because I did a little amateur boxing and really loved the sport. She was like, well you know who Floyd Mayweather is? He comes in a lot, he's right over there on the other side of the room. So I went over an introduced myself and we sat down and kicked it with the girls for a couple hours like two regular people. I think he probably respected that. But hey, I can only recount what happened. I can't expect everyone to believe it even though it's the truth.Originally Posted by Jman76
Another true story that is even less exciting...
Once in Pacific Beach in San Diego where I live, I ran into Pernell Whitaker (briefly) at a bar/nightclub called Typhoon Saloon. I shook his hand, too and told him, "You were one of the greats, you beat Julio Cesar Chavez AND Oscar Delahoya even though you got screwed over by the decision in both fights." He was like, "Thanks man. Most people don't realize that." It was only for a moment that I got to talk to him, but like the Mayweather encounter, it was a thrill. Especially because Pernell I grew up watching and consider him a great fighter of more or less, legendary status.
I've also met Terry Norris more than a few times. He trained fighters at a gym I used to belong to years back and gave me some coaching in the basics like keeping your elbows down and in to guard your ribs. He is an unbelievably cool guy. I still run into him now and again because he still lives in San Diego, or at least has a house here that he stays in for at part of the year.
But some people probably just think i am making that up too. Fighters; even great and legendary ones are real people even though sometimes it is hard to picture since we hold them up to such a high standard and put them on a pedestal sometimes. They go out and socialize in public places just like most of us do. And in places like Vegas, San Diego and Los Angeles, you really never know who you could run into, celebrity-wise.
Do you think that Floyd will remember because...my older brother has a pass to the gym in vegas and I can have him ask Floyd.I also got to meet Sweet Pea Whitaker when we lived in VA...he lived in a neighborhood called"Bellamy Woods" and I remember him having a white van.Originally Posted by diamonddavestafford
No im talking about matches that should have been made with an easy angle for marketing !!!Originally Posted by Olympian904
These fights he didnt have when these fighters were hot !! Mayweather has always avoided the fights where he could look bad and Casamayor had all the skill and smarts to give him trouble instead he took the easy route something he does and contuinues to do !!
Plenty of time Mayweather taunted Casamayor at ringside as he's done with Hatton !!
Mayweather has HBO to make these matches there is absolutley no excuse for not having fought the aforementioned !!!!
Casamayor would have beat Floyd at that weight?Originally Posted by Swashbuckling Gordy
Basically, I think that you will find more people hate these two than the desert has sand but I think the fight will really turn out to be good. Well at least it has that potential. I don't like either one out of the ring but when that bell rings, I'm a boxing fan through and through.

There was Acelnio F and Casamayor who ended up fighting each other whilst Mayweather fed on Jesus Chavez and Carlos Hernandez !!
Casamoyor was hot at superfeather at the same time as Mayweather as was Acelino .
If you're gonna continue to quote me at least get the right end of the stick !
YOU brought up Casamayors name...implying that he would beat Floyd.The objective is to find a fighter who can beat another fighter.Not find a fighter who will give another fighter trouble.There are dozens up fighters that Floyd could have fought...but at those weights...no one can touch him.No one has given Floyd problems yet!
Implied that he could have given him trouble beaten him whatever !!Originally Posted by Olympian904
My point is your boyfriend took the PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE .
Nobody gave him trouble cos he avoided every single fighter that could give him trouble .
Are you suggesting for one second that you'd rather watch Mayweather versus Chavez/Hernandez than Casamoyor or Acelino ?
