Comments Thread For: Mayweather's Mandatory Set Down With Tournaments

[ox805er]

I remember when BHop won the middleweight tournament and thought in doing so would force Roy Jones to face him in a long-awaited rematch...

...tournament means nothing.

Especially when Arum/Haymon decide who their fighters face.. not some alphabet title with losing credibility..

I thought bob was gonna wait by his phone and do everything to make this fight happen? I thought oscar was going to do everything in his power to make this fight happen, man f*** a damn tourny, the fight everyone used to wanna see can be made but Arum cares more about a fighter he doesnt represent (canelo) more than the one (manny) who has been loyal to him when he could've left like (oscar, mayweather, cotto) you tards are still supporting this guy and what he says

Ward fought Kessler. The favorite to win the tournament. He was also the Vegas betting favorite over Ward in the fight.

True, but during the tournament, Ward fought a weak substitute and got a walk over as well.

This is awesome....imagine Lara, Thurman, khan, brook, porter, Bradley, Chavez, andrade, or others vying for a spot...good ****

imagine Mayweather jr vs Manny mayweather sr vs roach

[white ducker]

so when all the haymon/top rank fighters refuse to take part we going to end up with a lot of espn fighters battling it out for a mandatory shot 2 years from now

Humor me. WTF is a "Floydie" ?

Is it like saying "ladies" but with Floyd's name? Or maybe "groupies"?

I'm trying to make some sense of it.

"Floydie" is a half Floyd fan and half Floyd groupie

Damn I can't wait to read the opinions and predictions of the top 8 at 147 and 154.........i can't make a list right now but Danny Garcia being the 140 WBC King is definitely gonna be on that list........we'll see who the real killa at 147 is after the dust settles.......I predict Swift

Danny garcia is king of cherry picking. He lost to herrera and fought red salsa.

Fighters dont fight other top fighters and "boxing fans" complain. WBC proposes an idea thatll have top fighters fighting other top fighters and "boxing fans" complain.

SMH!

[MRCHOKEaMF]

the truth is screw the sport of boxing, it has a chance to take a step towards relevance and its crowd is calling for a canelo fight over the biggest fight in history. Whoever is calling for a canelo fight over the floyd vs manny fight for ANY REASON is why this sport is failing and doomed, not because of the fighters or corruption or any other reason but ****** FANS! calling on a ppv that might or might not sell 1m over a record breaker that will bring in new fans. I'm done with boxing if this fight doesnt get made when both fighters want it and agree with terms, Manny agrees to whatever floyd wants 60-40 but some promoters are gonna shoot it down for.....

Know any good mma sites? cause its time to embrace something different

[Wuckoo]

If this goes ahead, and I hope it does, then regardless of whether or not the winner faces floyd we are gonna get some cracking fights!
