    Is this fight happening? Will Floyd be putting on his fly shorts for this one?

    So basically it's the exact same as Shane said it was. He had planned a family trip and wasn't going to be available before the fight was even on the table.


    I don't care about the past or who ducked who, none of that matters to me. This is a fight that needs to happen regardless of the past.

    If Shane has the kids for the weekend in question, will the fight have to be put back?

    If Shane has a chance to fight Mayweather and blows it for any reason I will be pissed and will call it like I see it. I don't care to revisit the past though.

    Promoter Dan goosen said Paul Williams is AVAILABLE for a March 13th against Mayweather at WELTER.

    PERFECT fight for Floyd to answer Pacquaio's Clottey.
    Williams is a great fighter but I think movement will give him a lot of problems. His punch output rate is very good but Mayweather won't be there to be hit. If the fight is signed my pick is Mayweather by clear UD.

    Mine is Paul Williams by decision. Even though Paul Williams fights like a fucking idiot and has a good chance of being weight drained, I just don't think Floyd is as good as advertised anymore.

    Looks like Berto lost half of his family in Haiti. I wonder if the Mosley fight will go on as scheduled?

    He's on Btalk saying it will. But now he has a good excuse if he loses.

    I'm in the camp that the more reason for him to fight on. Even more visibility for him and a possible foundation to help the victims.

    Yeah he doesn't care what's coming back at him, his wide frame and reach make it difficult to counter him as often as he should be countered.

    I just think Mayweather will counter him effectively. He is very ACCURATE and on the money with his counters. The weight is definitely a issue. He hasn't fought at 147 in close to 2 years.

    Does anyone really think for one second that Mayweather would consider Paul Williams?

    He's fighting a little guy, mark my words. I would be absolutely SHOCKED if he signed to fight Williams.

    Maybe Berto will pull a Buster Douglas.

    I wouldn't blame Berto at all if he dropped out of the fight.

    Considering that Mosley has a history with PEDs, does Mayweather lose all credibility if he were to take a fight with Mosley and not demand that Mosley undergo the same Olympic style blood testing that he was requesting of Pacquiao? I would say so.
