hatton - mayweather press conference pics

See, that is actually funny. :laughing:

 

granted sherk would beat floyds ass in UFC however floyd would make sherk look worse than arturo gatti in the squared circle. all this talking back-in-forth between UFC and boxers is only promotion. no one s going to step into the other guys ring and fight so it's pointless to even talk about it.

 

I only just watched it too ::

Floyd is an ABSOLUTE flid. I mean truly, as I said in the other post, of any star boxer Floyd has to be the absolute worst smacktalker and charmer.

 

:bears: ... though of course why should anyone here listen to the one guy that was actually at the event? If we did that, the thread wouldn't be 120+ posts and running ::

 

what's more - how much exactly is "the biggest purse any fighter had ever seen in the history of UFc"? Whatever it is, I'm sure it paled in comparison to whatever Floyd made that night. He probably threw more money into the camera for his stupid video than he would've made for such a fight

 

well said brother eaner. :bears:

 

$8 million up front + a major cut of ppv revenue. Floyd could've walked with well over $10 million. Not bad for an easy night's work. All he had to do was step into the octagon and smack the sh*t out of some 'tatooed street bum'. :clap:

 

you refuse to understand the context of floyd comment because you have so much hate in your heart. methinks floyd wasn't calling them bums in mixed martial arts, he was calling them bums from a boxing perspective. what's sherks background? wrestling? or something else?

 

@ bigdawg


How dare someone get in Rickys face and say "you a chump, too small, you a girl, i wish we was locked up together" ::::::


We should be giving Hatton props for not breaking down laughing.

 

The fact that you think that Hatton was "punked" is just stupid. He just sit there and let Floyd make an ass of himself. Why does he need to retaliate. He showed his class imo. Something Floyd knows nothing about. He knew it was just a stupid act. You could bet that if Floyd laid a hand on him Hatton would not have just stood there. I can appreciate Floyds talent and abilities, I just hate his stupid fucking poser thug attitude.

 

He was trying to get a fight against him. THEY ALL DO THIS!!!

 

:nono: One who did not follow the story cannot speak on the matter. Phonetap, Floyd meant everything he said. There was no small print. He called them bums who couldn't be boxers. He said "Anybody can put a tatoo on their head and roll around on the ground!"
He disrespected them as fighters and likened them to the average street drunk.
It was plain as day, he ridiculed all the fighters in MMA.
As for Sherk, he's a wrestler.

 

Didn't Mayweather make 10-12+for DLH PLUS ppv money? Why would he help build the UFC even more? Why not in the octagon, but a regular boxing ring? UFC's STEROID boy can have his regular ufc gloves if he wants.

Ufc owners are worth 100'smillion or even billions but they only offer Mayweather 8 million? :dunno:Nice insult to the establish ufc fighters who never made over 3 millon...

 

Kermit Cintron wanted to fight Roids Sherks...what happen to that fight?

 

He was too dangerous because he has a wrestling background.

 

this entire conversation has given phonetap an epiphany of sorts as to why tickets have been limited (so-to-speak) when it comes to the amount that can be purchased at the window. hatton is playing it cool now but the people who'll be accompanying him across the atlantic won't exactly be classy...they'll undoubtedly be of the thug hooligan variety and that in combination with floyd's ghetto entourage is the recipe for an potentially explosive (i.e dangerous) situation. drunken hooligans and high gangstas all in the same cramped quarters...geez, this fight could be a disaster. :doh:

 

I hope your boy doesn't pull out because hes not ready yet.

"Hes not Carlos Maussa (crowd laughs)"-Leonard Ellerbe
"Hes a hellava wrestler"-Floyd MONEY Mayweather

 

:: ::

I was just saying to His Royness, I think I would have started laughing.

 

alright, phonetap will look up and listen to floyds quote...dont get offended if phonetap takes your position with a grain for salt considering you have so much animosity towards mayweather...it often jades your perspective.

however, taking what you've said, floyd should NOT have called them bums but he's right in the sense that those guys couldn't be boxers. sherk's a wrestler thus he'd look like a fool in the boxing ring.

 

You're trying to find any possible way to defend Mayweather, ILL. Typical of a boxing fan. If you talk sh*t about somebody, you have to prepare to get called out. Floyd was offered more money than he made against Baldo and Zab. Why didn't he take the fight if all he had to do was beat up on some 'tatooed wrestling bum'?
Don't keep saying stuff like "Well the UFC is worth billions so they should've offered him more". That's all nonsense!
The money was perfectly fine and he didn't want none. And it's not so much that he didn't accept the challenge despite the fact that he himself was the one talking sh*t, but it should also be noted that Floyd APOLOGIZED when he got called out.
You know you're a bitch when you talk sh*t, and then you get called out so instead you run away and apologize. That's a bitch move, and that's what Floyd is all about.
That's why people laught at him and everything he barks. That's why Hatton is laughing at him face to face. Floyd's a fake!

 

I can just picture the call from Jim Lampley:

"The MGM Grand has been stormed by thugs, hooligans and studio gangstas!"

 

Damn I hope Hatton smashes that prick!:bears:

 

That's besides the point phonetap. What right do I have to insult your way of making a living? Who am I to say that I'm better than you? If some prissy cunt talked sh*t about me and my job, I'd be insulted. Wouldn't you? If I give my blood in a sport and some fruit calls me a bum who couldn't make it in boxing, that's a CHALLENGE. And according to what bigdawg is saying, you gotta defend your manhood and step up. That's what Sherk and the UFC did. When they stepped up, Floyd stepped down. That's what Floyd's all about. Stepping back when somebody doesn't buy his stupid tough guy act. He runs like a bitch and apologizes.

 

How about Floyd winning 12-0, outlanding him 262-58, making him look like a bobblehead, and then makes Ricky cry in his father's arms and retire for 3 years?

 

Hey, s'up rjjp4pno1? You've been gone for a while. Nice to see you back.:clap:
Don't mind my sh*t talking. I'm in pure FIGHT HYPE mode right now.::

 

there's no area with white people where u don't talk shit?? :dunno:

 

word.

 

so if you're a boxer and said the UFC sucks then the UFC challenges you with a roided up wrestler, you'd take the challenge? c'mon now, lets be real. :dunno:

the UFC talking heads have been bashing boxing but phonetap has yet to see their fighters enter a boxing ring to prove they are indeed better fighters.

you are obviously taking the side of the UFC...fine, but you know damn well boxers can't win in the octagon and mixed martial artists can't win in the ring.

 

He didn't say he wanted to fight in the UFC. Floyd said that he would pay that bum Lidell $1,000,000 if he could beat a pro boxer. So Dana White and that lay and prey bum Sherk challenge Mayweather to a fight which of course he doesn't accept because he never said he wanted to fight in the UFC. The guy who said wanted to fight Kermit Cintron who has the wrestling background got kicked to the curb and exposed the UFC.

 

Well truthfully I'd give boxers a much better chance inside the octagon with a decent amount of grappling training than I would give to mma fighters competing in a boxing ring.
You still haven't addressed any of my point. I have a feeling you're agreeing with a lot of what I say but you don't want to talk crap on Floyd for all his smack talk and bitch actions? Nor do you want to demean the sport of boxing.
Are you saying that you were cool with Floyd's sh*t talking towards MMA fighters? Or do you think he was wrong? And if he called them a bunch of tatooed bums rolling around in the cage, why didn't he expose them for what they are for a nice bit of coin? Why did he step back and apologize? Maybe because he's NOT a legit badass which he pretends to be? ::
