    Yeah I hate Fraud, always have,.. but ya gotta be fair about this,.. Mosely was the best possible opponent for him besides the drug riddled little frankenstein, we have no choice but to look at Mosely's last outing, an annihilation of Margarito,.. had Fraud not fought Mosely, there would be people screaming why he wasn't fighting him, me included,.. there's just no real case to attack him for this choice of opponent. There are many, many other avenues to attack Fraud, but it doesn't make alot of sense to attack him for fighting Mosely.

    Floyd bad. Eventually, the price people will pay to see him get KTFO will convince him to finally let it happen. As for now, we just have to hope that he's made a miscalculation - in particular, his apparent certainty that he can beat Mosley.

    Mayweather jr doesn't even have to try very hard to make some people dislike him. I know several older chaps who already despised him when his career began based on their previous disdain for his uncle and father

    To me there are many guys that are far more disagreeable than Floyd.

    Floyd boasts...but he backs it up in the ring. His "flash" (in the ring) has substance.

    Maybe, but i'm not one of those older chaps.

    I saw the brothers fight a bit when i was younger, but didn't know enough about them to have any kind of negative feelings.

    I can't say i was ever a real fan of Floyd, but i also just saw him for what he was. An extremely skilled and smart boxer.

    It's only been in the last 3-4 years where he's really gotten on my nerves.
    It has nothing to do with being arrogant and thinking he's the best out there. Fighters should believe that in my opinion.

    It's the interviews. The doubltalk and absolute shit coming out of his mouth make me want to see the guy get KO'd absolutely cold.

    there's no backing up absolute assholeness. PBF can't "undo" himself by fighting well. for a variety of reasons : 1. because he doesn't fight the best. 2. because he's boring as hell to watch. 3. he's just too big of an ass-hole for anything he does in the ring to undo it.

    agREED. Mayweather is a great fighter, but also a douchebag of the highest magnitude.

    You must realise Double L,.. that Fraud is the feelered hissing urchin that lie within many upon many in this sport, fighters, promoters and lawyers,.. His dyslexic awareness about the need for social encryption presents him as a pure monster, so it's really about preference to what people find more insulting, the devious, spinning camouflage?.. or the reality underneath it all?..

    I find both equally dispicable,... a holocaust concerntration camp, ie 'weeding' ..would do a harmonious service to the better world.

    I would be glad if PBF won, if the victory then gave him the self-belief to seek out the best available challenges.

    It would piss me off if he beat SSM & in his & others eyes that would mean he would have nothing further to prove & would automatically imply victories over guys he hasn't fought.

    On the other hand, if he loses, then he may be more willing to seek out the best challenges as his "0" would have gone.

    BTW

    It's not a convienient set-up.
    It's simply the way it is.
