[...] Mayweather Vs. Mosley Fight Is About Money, Not Legacy - News One [...]

It’s time for someone to shut Mayweather up, and Shane Mosley’s the one to do it.

The craziest thing about ZeroNews is that they take other people’s articles and put there own headline to it. Can you get any more low class than that? I mean really? With that said, the fight game is about business, and even when people like to glamorize the “good old days” of the sport they fail to either realize or accept that it has ALWAYS been about business. So fights like these ARE about legacy and business. It’s possible to be about both, contrary to what this headline suggests. Mayweather by TKO10, Fck Shane Mosely (I refuse to call him sugar, only been two, Robinson and Leonard, the rest are impostors).

I am definitely pro black… but if this was about money and not legacy, Mayweather would have fought Pacqiao. I think Floyd was scared of the lil asian dude.

What i wanna know is, why, in 2010, two minorities beating each other up for the entertainment of mostly wealthy white folks, still considered a sport?

Im going with mosley cause i know he can take a punch mayweather hasnt takin to many hard punches and mosley has some hard dam punches. Even oscar said is going to be a knock out and hes leaning toward mosely. I think its going to come down to who can survive the most punches which i know mosley can take a punch mayweather questionable???

@slowhand..

..do you feel the same when any other non black minorities or whites beating each other up in 2010 for the entertainment of mostly wealthy white folks, still considered a sport?

(BTW..both of these men are not minorities they ARE MAINSTREAM MAJORITY..they have more money than you will ever see in your lifetime)

Even though I would like to see Mosely take Mayweather..simply because Mayweather is NOT a humble athlete..

I believe Mosely will lose this becuz he doesn’t have youth on his side..the endurance or speed on his side..against Mayweather..

Mayweather CAN’t take many punches..and Mosely is skilled to have that ONE punch to TKO Mayweather..but Mayweather is not gonna let Mosely get that close ..

Suns-14. De La Hoya is Mosely’s promoter, so him going for him shouldn’t “shock” you. I will agree with you that Mosely will probably be the hardest puncher PBF has faced, but PBF is a defense extraordinaire and for the most part will probably neutralize a lot of that power.

@Stan_Vinyl. Around the circles of boxing, it is widely believed that Pac is on something. No other fighter has ever come from straw weight (or maybe fly weight) and come to welterweight and dominated like that, in that space of time. In the history of the sport. I think the absolute refusal on his part to accept a blood test program suggests, to me anyway, Pac was the one scared. Not of Floyd though, but of the drug test results. If Shane were to win, I know there is a rematch clause in the contract, but lets suppose Shane were to win that and then demand a fight with Pac, what will he do if Shane demands Olympic style testing as well? Pac turning down $40mil to go fight Clottey is a joke, and highly suspicious.

@slowhand64. I feel you on this, and I’m usually conflicted about the violent nature of this sport in general anyway, no matter who is fighting, but as a fight fan, I truly am interested in the science of this sport. The footwork, the hand eye coordination, the conditioning, and the overcoming of adversity. I rarely get excited about the blood, guts or even a KO, but I realize I’m in the minority. The fact is, this is these dudes line of work, and if you really think about it, we are ALL slaves to this system, unless you’re actually producing whatever it is that pays your bills.

@Gatekeepa. I vehemently disagree with you that PBF isn’t a humble athlete. After the fight is over and done with, PBF is one of the most classiest guys in the sport. He respects the sport tremendously. He has chosen to play the villain, much like Ali did, and it makes PBF the biggest draw in the sport, while admittedly, most people only want to see him lose. Go and watch the way he deals with his opponents AFTER the fights. It’s totally different than prior too, when he is in “salesman” mode.

Also keep in mind gentlemen, there were a lot more easier fights PBF could have taken. This fight is like jumping out of the fire into another fire. If PBF were truly scared, the last person he should be fighting is Shane Mosely!

I think it’s part about money but part a warmup for pacquiao. If he easily out-maneuver Mosley’s speed, it’s a template for how to fight pacquiao, imo. So I think PBF wants you to THINK it’s all about money, when really it’s a litmus test for himself.

_A_… I’m going to have to simply agree… good insight!

Well Old_School, I guess you will have to wait for the 42nd opponent to try and shut him up. Keep on hating though, eventually somebody might beat him…Hell, maybe somebody might even knock him down. Dude is one of the best tactical boxers of all time. That is irrefutable!

Looks like i missed out on this one. But PBF sounds like any other athlete that know’s it’s just a business like any other sport. IDK much about boxing though lol basketball is my main sport really.

This fight sucked.

heard one of them got 2mil and the other one got like 60mil….

@Gatekeepa lol looks like u were wrong about everything lol…floyd proved he could take a punch which u said he couldn’t…mosely showed endurance, floyd let him get close bcuz he changed his style for the fight and STILL landed 44 % of his punches to shane’s 20 somethin, and then floyd showed nothing but respect to the sport and to shane after the fight…he knows how to sell it, but he doesn’t disrespect it…u confused his confidence with humbleness…i’m sick of people having to be politically correct these days…i wish there were people who would answer questions the way they really feel vs. what’s supposed to be said…if u think in ur heart that ur gonna dominate the fight, say it…that’s all he does

This was a great fight. True fight fans could/would appreciate the dynamics of this fight. PBF came out not fighting his fight. He got caught with a HUGE right hand, made adjustments (pretty much just went back to being himself) and totally went on and dominated the rest of the way, while you saw him impose his will on one of the better fighters (not in my eyes though)of our generation. That’s not supposed to happen. PBF is the best tactical fighter in the last 40 years and possibly of all time!

You mean to tell me that SPAM promoting other sites get to stay on here, but my post that’s actually about the topic being spoken about gets deleted??? WTF???

@SoularFlarez. I’m sure Mosley got a little more than that, but May hardly got $60. He made $22mil but I’m not sure if that includes the gate, PPV and promotion money. If not, he probably got another 8-10 from that.

There was only one great punch thrown in the whole fight and since Sugar Shane couldnt finish him the rest of it sucked ARSE…

I agree with _A_ on pretty much everything and his boxing IQ is second to none and when every other fighter is concerned with speed and/or power he seems to be primarily focused on out-boxing his opponent and unreal defense.

As a former amateur boxer I can appreciate the way “Money May” makes his pay. Cunning, cool and collective. Everybody knows what he’s about so you either “Love ‘em or Hate ‘em”, wanna see him knocked out or tactically pick apart another boxer.

Pac won’t fight May if he does he’s going down “Money May in a 7 round pay day” KNOCK OUT!

He is a great fighter and a wonderful parent and gives 2 the community but he is not Ready for Albert Berto
