i enjoy the way he fights, but christ is this fucking guy a dolt.
floyd is doing this just to draw attention to his fight. He’ll say he respects mma after the fight, like he did last time. don’t bite on this shit guys
Yeah, I think your right.
Anyone who from MMA or from Boxing has to know enough to know the enough to not make those statements.
He’s just makin waves.
As Rampage would say “we takin over”. He was referring to the wolf’s lair after his ko of wandy. We all know how that has turned out. I’m referring to mma taking over.
Today’s featured fighters: BJ Penn, Tito Ortiz, Brock Lesnar and Floyd Gayweather. Fuckin’ rogue’s gallery!
Wolf’s Lair fucking sucks. Who knows how good Rampage would look in an elite camp.
Floyd’s fight is going head-to-head with the UFC on the same night. He wants to discredit the sport he’s going to lose buys to. That said, I’m sure his fight with Marquez will outsell the UFC. Dana knows it too, which is why he’s half-assing the card to save his big hitters for events where they won’t be sharing the spotlight.
i so agree jeremy that would be terrifying if rampage trained at an actual good camp
if i catch anyone paying for a boxing ppv im going to rnc them
GSP VS FLOYD.
23 pound weight discrepancy.
Floyd finally lost me when he compared MMA rounds and training to boxing..lol.. nothing is like MMA training, anytime you train with grappling you’ll be in the best shape of your life… Don’t give Mayweather too much credit guys, he’s arrogant and not very bright.
I had to hear that interview one more time… “White Man created MMA to keep the Black Man Down” LOL… something like that.
If you guys are implying that he’s just saying this nonsense for a reaction it also means his opinion is totally compromised and invalid. It means he’s a sell-out. And by sell-out I mean someone with no worthy opinion because he says fabricated rubbish for a reaction, someone who has no substance, someone who’s opinion should never be considered again because he says fabricated rubbish just like a fraud or liar would.
On the other hand, if he’s saying this rubbish because he believes it, and I believe he is, then it’s a tragedy that someone so opinionated as he is can be so dumb. It’s proof that despite being a ‘fighter’ he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He might know about the industry of boxing and the technical aspects of it, but he knows nothing of the real world outside of that. And he certainly knows nothing about MMA. His statements are as ridiculous as that Bob Reilly fool’s (or whatever his name is).
He’s pretty much saying that MMA is a gimmick-sport created to distract people from boxing because all the blacks and Hispanics have taken it over. That is the DUMBEST thing I’ve ever heard.
He’s implying that because boxers earn more money that they’re more talented and better fighters. That’s the second dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.
I’ve also noticed that the borderline retarded use the cage analogy, that it’s like human cock-fighting, like animals. They’re so narrow-minded. They look at a cage and think “men locked up like animals” but neglect to think of the strategic elements of the arena, just like tennis has clay and grass and all the shit. MMA also takes place in a ring by the way.
This guy from hereon should be seen and not heard. He has a 14-year-old mind in a thirty-year-old body. He’s as sharp as a marble.
I’ve lost respect for this guy. I really hope he gets knocked out.
MAyWeaTHer is One Dumb Mutherf*cker.
I can’t stand him. White people invented MMA so that white people could dominate? That explains why the Gracie family backed the UFC in the early years. It also explains why white people invented martial arts.
If my memory serves me correct, weren’t half the competitors at UFC1 non white anyway????
There was the guy who had his tooth knocked out first fight, Art Jimmerson and his one boxing glove, Pat Smith and one other???? Mayweather’s just a dumb racist piece of sh!t!
Love the fact that whenever pac-man’s name gets mentioned, old motor mouth floyd cant wait to change the subject. That is by far the most weak @ass excuse I have ever heard for ducking a fight, quite pathetic.
WHAT?!?! shogun…your…Do you mean to tell me…HAHA…just gotta laugh at it I guess.
“beer drinkers? you mean men? what do boxing fans drink? champagne?
by the way, lets see if he ducks pac man like expected!
I really hope for that fight kev,so we can see pac shut him up!
I don’t think he’ll duck Pac, thats a HUGE pay day; but he does risk his undefeated rec if he decides to do it.
he is ducking pacman because he said he’ll only fite if the pacman takes a smaller cut of the purse
I’ve seen enough of Floyd to know that this is his real persona. Yes, it sells fights, and Floyd uses that excuse to justify his idiotic crybaby attitude. But you can’t fake the kind of arsehole Floyd is 24/7. He really believes all his bullshit. He has surrounded himself with parasitic worshippers.
Kind of like BJ’s!
I would too alpha.
hey, where you lost me the other day was saying if you went to 101, you’d have to say I was your boy from boston etc. Didn’t quite follow! It’s 15 guys from mmamania, who you got to lie to? Don’t even tell us your name, I’ll call you Alpha. I’m on board to what you’re saying and think I’ve put the pieces together, but in this case, you’re over thinking. Email me bro, I got one spot left!
kevjack115@yahoo.com
“There’s no white fighters that’s dominatin’!”
Apparently Floyd’s not familiar with Calzaghe and Klitschko.
by the way, telling pac man to take less of the purse is an excuse! not a legit one either!
guys like this are the reason why once loyal fans like me have become disillusioned with the sport of boxing…
I’ll try to email you this weekend kev.We’ll talk!
ok buddy!
MMA is for the greatest fighters in the world. Fighters from Japan, Brazil, America, Canada, UK…everywhere. Several nationalities are competing in it and somehow he says that it is a sport for white people because they cannot compete in boxing? This guy is brilliant. I guess the Japanese and Brazilians and pretty much everyone who isn’t black or hispanic are ducking boxing as well. And the blacks and hispanics competing in MMA are just….flukes?
Exactly Ryan. Sometimes I can’t believe the shit that comes out of this guys mouth!
MMA is for all nationalities, colours and backgrounds as it bring martial artists from all across the globe.
This guy is bitter cos he knows boxing is gradually being overshadowed by MMA.
no white top level boxers? what about calzaghe or klitchko? blacks and hispanics may rule 170 and below but when was the last time you seen a mexican hw champ?
It’s like he thinks that everyone involved in MMA failed while attempting boxing careers. Many fighters began wrestling in high school and found MMA as an outlet to further pursue this activity. Same with people who started out with karate or BJJ.
The guy lives in Vegas! Randy’s backyard! He’s talking crap about MMA in Randy’s backyard? Where is Captain America to defend us when we need him??
I mean if boxing is for blacks n’ mexicans and MMA is for all others… then NON Mexican n’ blacks are the best fighters in the world? HUH? that Mayweather quote should hit the headlines and takeover Brocks latest fiasco.
I’m more anxious to see what DW says about these remarks than I am to actually watch the mayweather fight. That’s pretty sad for boxing.
boxing has been about for hundreds of years the ufc has been up almost 20 and look at the ufc now give it 15 more years boxing will be nothing on the ufc.this guy is a idiot. i think they should let bj eat that muppet.
Heavyweight Boxing Champ. White. X3
Cruiserweight Champ. White
Light Heavyweight Boxing Champ. White
Super Middleweight Champ. White
Middleweight Champ White. x2
id like to see him go 12 rounds in a cage with gsp being took down then see what he has to say about it lol
guess he forgot when they offered him to fight sean sherk and he said like a bitch
Afraid of Women, Boxers are blacks and Mexicans. He’s the best P4P, Animals take of shirt and shoes. . .Wow where do I even begin to comment?
The best P4P is Pac-Man. I’ll give him[Floyd] this title if he does beat him or doesn’t at least duck him. Coward! For a black dude, you ain’t got no balls to face an Asian like pac. I smell pus$y!
Syd – You’re right on bro.
Right on syd
hahahah, boxers are pussys, thats not real world fighting, throe him in a street fight with gsp, and let us know floyd, how quickly you give up. mma is just real fighting with rules, and real fighting has been around, a few million years more than boxing
Human beings have only been on earth for a couple hundred thousand years … but I get your point.
actually about 6 thousand years, but I get your point.
Six thousand? Someone traded in their textbooks for a Bible…
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/02/0216_050216_omo.html
Actually a few ,illion was correct. You’re forgetting about those awesome dinosaur fights back in the day. I liked them better when they could still use soccer kicks though.
Lol. snarky remarks from a self proclaimed “intellect” doesn’t change the fact that the word of God is and will always be more reputable than the ever changing concepts of man. And a national geographic source is nothing compared to an eternal all knowing source.
lol 6000 years, man you are in for a shock when you start reading more than 1 book.
So those fossils are make-believe?
Hey everybody, let’s go over to haglnut’s place later and pet his unicorn. His house is made of chocolate and gumdrops.
Bro, there were advanced civilizations 6000 years ago! What, those just popped up out of nowhere?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4th_millennium_BC
lol. I wish! Hey they carbon dated some Nike tennis shoes and said that they were millions of years old! Wow, science is soo far ahead of religion. lol. And I actually read about 3 books a week. (other than the Bible) so I’m pretty sure some of you may be in for a surprise. just sayin. . .anyway, back to MMA. BJ is gonna put the hurt on K-Flo! BJ BJ BJ
Religeons make me laugh and cry at the same time.
Yeah clearly the word of a fictional deity outweighs scientific fact by carbon based life forms.
Religion is the first corporation, and will be the last.
Young earth creationism, pffft. Stop taking the bible so literally. Just because the universe looks different now than it used to doesn’t mean that God didn’t create it. Do you think it took Him exactly 144 hours too?
Hahaha funny stuff, JJ. You owned haglnuts.
haglnuts has NO f-cking IDEA. Go back to fairy land fruitcake.
You guys crack me up!
Yeah, I’m sure haglnuts also believes cavemen rode Triceratops across the plains and had a tea party with Mr T. Rex. LOL
Wow, I got so owned by all you brilliant cats! I didn’t know that in order to “win” an intellectual argument, I had to go along with what everyone else believes and have no research myself or critical though for myself. In order to have “a clue” I have to believe all the “new science” that changes every second and go along with what national geography tells me to believe. I guess I should have just gone straight to personal attacks, maybe then I wouldn’t have gotten “owned” by JJ. I thought most the stuff was funny, just juvenile.
You’re so self-righteous. Just because you passively act like an @sshole doesn’t mean you ain’t one. For instance, you started it all by being a smartarse to JJ, copying the last clause of his sentence — “but I get your point” — and correcting him in your eyes rather than just actually stating your point.
JJ referenced wikipedia… game over.
If you’re implying Wikipedia is not particularly a credible source, well you’re saying the same thing about Brittanica. And in that case you may as well say any Encyclopedia isn’t credible. Hell, let’s have it your way and only acknowledge the word of God.
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v438/n7070/full/438900a.html
By the way, haglnuts, my “eternal all knowing source” tells me you’re a f-cking wanker! I better believe him then.
new earth creationists are on the same level as those that still think the earth is flat (yes they exist).
it makes me laugh, quite heartily to hear their BS. Gotta love the creationist museum, they think we used to ride around on dinosaurs and sin created Carnivores.
Double J – 1
haglnuts – 0
u stupid fuk! I bet ur not even in any competative fighting. and even if u are, u probally joined it for the same reason every other frat boy joined it , Selfe defense. Competative fighting isn’t about showing which fighthing style is the best. don’t be saying boxing is for pussys if u havnt been punched by one yet. did you know boxers hold the hardest punch . and ufc is more of a fight with variuos styles of fighting. it’s more of a who’s the better fighter, not what’s the better fighting stance. I’m a boxer and I don’t have anything against other fighting moves, mayweather is just talking shit for publicity to get people morexhyped up about him and sell more tickets for the days of his fights. use ur head nextime before you speak shit u ain’t know nothing about. let the talkers fall while the fighters rise.
What a jack ass. He had to go to the white people had to find something else. He says it isn’t racist, but give me a break. Look at the number of amateurs of whites compared to blacks and hispanics that box. The equation is just the same as top white fighters. No one race is better than another, it is just what you put in it and what you want to do. That shit is a stupid as Brock saying I’m built like a black guy.
wot a cunt!
And boxing is for pimps and crack dealers…
I hate Floyd. I actually HATE him. Can’t say that about any other fighter.
Yeah, I don’t know much about him (and don’t plan to learn more after this), but I remember in the past you’ve mentioned you don’t like him and I didn’t know why, now I fully understand.
The guy is a complete fool.
This guy is a racist and as dumb and ignorant as my brother’s ex who once thought the Vietnam War and World War II were the same thing.
And I’m not just saying that. When people presume boxers are dumb, Mayweather proves them right.
didn’t even listen to that j*ck*ss for more than 30 sec…one of the most self centered individuals in sports today, making one of the most uneducated, arrogant, ignorant, and uninformed statements I’ve heard in recent memory…hope Marquez can shut him up
Get in the cage and prove it. Any fighter in UFC or WEC, any weight class.
maybe…Mayweather/BJ
I would even put aside my anti-Huggie Bear feelings for 15 minutes if he would put a beat-down on that tax-cheat.
PW,you can’t really believe that Huggie Bear,can beat Money Mayweather,do you?
In the cage, absolutely. I wouldn’t bet on him finishing Taxweather, but he could take a punch or two to get the takedown and hug. Hell, he might even posture up and throw some real punches knowing there is no possibility of a sweep or submission.
Floyd would never step in an MMA cage or ring anyway guys, so there’s no point. Floyd doesn’t really LIKE fighting, especially in a format where he might actually get hurt – or where his speed and bobbing and weaving ability could be nullified. Not to mention the fact that they could never pay the greedy little bastard enough anyway.
Well we saw what “one punch” from an ex boxer can do…
Yup JJ…could you imagine if the UFC were willing to payed an astronomical amount of money like that to making it happen?Maybe we,could see A.Silva vs Machida’s then.
God damn it plz Marquez shut this fucking dude up once and for all.
What’s wrong with beer? Floyd is forgetting where he came from
Yea a colt 45 and a broken trojan. Fuck this dude. Ill fight him if the money’s right. Not box, Fight.
Hell I’ll fight him for free.
you’re right floyd, they do have “cut mens”. i think in ten years boxing will be gone and mma will be king. i fear we will never find out what would happen if a world class boxer fights a top mma fighter.
in mma the boxer.. they have KO power with gloves 4x the size, if mayweather fought an mma guy they better shoot for a takedown and hope his handspeed is not that fast because 1 and you are done
the large gloves vs mma gloves makes no difference. fight science ran the comparison and they decrease the strenght of the punch by almost the exact same. I think it was like a 20% decrease for both.
I’ve been hit by both, and I can assure you … the gloves make a difference. The science probably doesn’t take into account how the larger surface area transmits the force of the punch over a larger target area, thus lessening the overall force of the blow – and shit like that.
The larger surface area of the boxing glove also causes the entire head to absorb the blow, not just the area getting hit. This results in the brain getting rattled around more than it does with MMA gloves while the fighter isn’t hurt as badly. Therefore, the brain takes far more abuse in boxing than in MMA, leading to elderly boxers devolving into drooling morons.
Tim Sylvia vs Ray Mercer.
They’re both fat pieces of crap. That doesn’t count.
remy bonjaski v ray mercer – boxers get beat anyday by thai boxers, kickboxers, karate, tkd, wrestlers, jj, mma anyone who can kick or grapple and a boxer is done.
As far as the money he makes -just like the spice girls make millions for their performances – doent stop them from being shit
the spice girls comment is going to far, take that back now
wow i just watched that remy v mercer fight and that is extremley pathetic, please buakaw(is that correct?) vs mayweather.
as far as the race thing, i remember b-hop talking all the trash how a white boy would never beat him and calzaghe waxed that ass, pavlik ko’in taylor(i know b-hop beat him but taylor beat hop)and of course klitsko then the icing on the cake..my white ass…and thats whats up
Swamp Thing Sylvia tried to stand up with Mercer. That led to his undoing. If any MMA athlete goes toe-to-toe with a world class (or even previously world class) boxer, it’s lights out for the MMA fighter.
The MMA fighter needs to be intelligent and utilize the tools that make him a superior fighter: the distance advantage of kicks, takedowns, wrestling, jiu jitssu, and a more evolved clinch game.
Even the Spider would get KO’d by Roy Jones Jr. if he chose to stand up with him. The professional specialist almost always wins a specialized fight. But an intelligent and humble MMA fighter almost always wins a vale tudo fight.
in the early days of MMA they use to match up strikers (boxers) vs grapplers… strikers were immediately taken to the ground where the fight ended. It happened over n’ over… nowadays it pays to have a well rounded game in MMA. But any MMA guy should be able to beat a boxer in MMA (via takedowns, GnP, clinches, kicks, dirty boxing or knees) so many ways to win other than boxing or even takedowns. The only way a boxer could win for sure is in a boxing match.
haha come on floy you´re not really believe in that
is he serious in this video?? like common this is so infuriating it is ridiculous. He clearly knows nothing about MMA, i guarantee G.S.P is in better shape and a much better athlete than Mayweather…wow what a joke, i used to like Mayweather, now i wish he was dead or something.
OMG…I’m speechless…I honestly don’t even know where to start with this….
I hear ya McArthur. Selling tickets or not, this shit he’s spewing really is unbelievable and while I know he’s creating controversy and buzz to sell his fight – he’s being honest. He REALLY thinks MMA fighters are not on his level and are a bunch of scrubs.
The guy can’t even put a sentence together and he expects fight fans to take him seriously??
I know this argument has been played out to the nth degree but man, it’s so freaking obvious. Boxing is ONE fighting discipline of MMA. One. Mayweather may be very skilled in this one discipline but who the f–k cares? If all you can do as a fighter is punch and block you aren’t a true fighter. Period. Its like saying the rims on a car are better than the entire car itself.
Boxing is done. Its boring. There may be a couple good fighters that are worth watching like Pacqiao, but it really isn’t even close to the entertainment value that MMA brings. Floyd can say whatever he wants but he knows his sport is dying and will say (or try to) whatever he can to bring MMA down.
BTW Floyd, those “beer drinkers” you’re referring to used to be boxing fans until we found something far better. Oh yeah, and white people don’t dominate MMA you ignorant fuck!
I used to be a huge boxing fan but MMA is so much more real. There is so much more to the fight game than using your fists while standing.
HI Hater.. i like boxing and i hope marquez kos him
this guy is a moron:)) I mean – a real one. Get in the ring with Uriah Faber – he’s 145 lbs – and you will be out cold in less then 1 minute:) funny guy…. he can’t even talk like an inteligent human being:) probably too much damage to his brain due to constant hitting in the head:)
Never watched Floyd fight, have you. He doesn’t get hit in the head much. And there’s only one JJ, bro. JJ technologies is my laptop.
Not too much brain damage…he’s just stupid.
He is absolutely right. MMA is the White Man’s creation meant to keep the black man down.
That is so funny. Floyd doesn’t even realize how much bullshit comes out of his mouth. There is no logic to anything he was saying and if you ask me he was being racial. Let a white man say what he was saying from that perspective the media would kill him.
The black man is the white mans creation to keep the black man down. haahahaahahha
Floyd is selling tickets. Truth is he doesn’t understand that he would get mashed by the average MMA Professional fighter. Allday Everyday. I will say this, some of these mma guys that call themselves strikers with no ground game would get knocked out by a top level boxer. So it works both ways.
yes and no i think marcus davis has shown great success from being a pro boxer to turning the tables and being a very well rounded fighter i think anyone can adapt with the right training and if he wants to talk shit gsp was rated number one most fit person with his 3% body fat he must of missed that in mens health
I agree that a top striker could be knocked out by a boxer in a boxing match. But change it to a kick boxing match and its a whole different scenario.
that is the uglyest fuck i ever seen, lov it wen one dimentional losers act like they know wat there talking about..
Ignorant.
Is it just me, or is this guy retarded?
no, it’s not just you. It’s both of ya.:)
LOL.
why did he bring up race? white people had to go to mma? he pulled that straight out of his ass. i hope he steps in the cage at welterweight. maybe thiago alves can humble him a little
Boxing’s welterweight division is 147 pounds.
Let BJ Penn tie him in a knot. One of my favorite moments is when Din Thomas called him out.
He just has no idea. He’s a tool..
i love the fact that he calls it a beer drinkers sport last time i checked fans werent fighting each other in the crowd there moms werent coming in to hit the man that was beating on his son. and u hardly ever see mma fighters in trouble. there is alot more respect in the mma world because they know what a fighter goes through in the way of being the best. he forgot to talk about how kelly pavilik my hometown hero is a white boy who has only one lose. so i think its funny that floyd runs his mouth but pays to sit there and watch the ufc. i also think its funny that he compares the two sports in mma u have to be ready for everythang i mean all he has to do is read the article that kimbo wrote telling the difference in the two u have to be ready for everythang in mma. boxing u get tired u wrap up ur oppenent.
an article that Kimbo wrote?? Real bad example…Kimbo is a bum lol
Kimbo wrote an article?
Kimbo can write?
Mayweathers a dumb ass! His fites suck , he talks too much shit @ be running the whole damn fite! i hope he gets ktfo by marquez & pac-man!!
u dont join mma for the money u join it to become the best fight the best. i mean if he wants to talk shit about money look at fedor top pound for pound fighter in the world most humble guy. it dont matter how good u are if u are champ show a lil class
floyd want to say that in mma , gapplers have more chance to win the mma fight than stand up fighters….and i agree with him at this point, others point no…
we already know what happens when single disciplines fight eachother… Grapplers dominate and standup fighters gets their a*s kicked!
i like how he says there are no dominant white boxers when the Klitchko brothers are both as white as they get. The he says you cant take my shoes and shirt off and throw me in the cage. Last time i checked, boxers dont wear shirts lol. then he claims that all non=white guys went to mma, when the ufcs current champs are a hawaian, and two brazilians.
I have allot of respect for boxers but this guy not only makes boxers look bad but also black people. if you put some goofy glasses and a clock around his neck he’s basically the same as Flavor Flav. YEA bOY!!!!!!!!!!!
BOX-ING? What is BOX-ING?
Din Thomas Called this guy out After a ufc bout. Din would put mayweather into a pretzal.
THIS GUY IS CLUELESS.. HE WOULDNT LAST ONE ROUND IN MMA. 250 MILLION FOR 2 FIGHTS.. THATS WHY HE IS SO IGGNORANT.
mayweather is a beast. he’d own anybody standing up in MMA. send him to ATT for 3 or 4 years and he’d run through anybody. the guy has won 6 boxing championships in 5 different weight classes. nobody at 155 in the ufc could hang with him. aside from boxing skill, the guy is a cardio freak. with solid takedown defense and submission defense, he’d run circles around everyone.
He could, he would, he should. STFU. That’s like saying that if you take any grappling/submission world champ and teach them standup they will become world champ and “mow” through anybody. The most well rounded fighters are the best fighters in the world. Mayweather is a boxer. I don’t give a f*ck what you think he could do. Let me see it.
No Adam T, lefthook is right. Takedowns and takedown defence is really easy to master. I bought a tape at Walmart the other day on the subject, I plan on being able to stop GSP type take downs by next Saturday…JK. Have you seen any interviews lately about MMA guys dissing boxing? NO because they don’t care about boxing, no one does. When this crop of “stars” retires no one will ever watch boxing again. Floyd like any aging boxer is just trying to stay slightly relevant, we shouldn’t get all worked up about dinosaurs.
Dinasoar? He’s two years younger than Anderson Silva.
I meant the sport, not the age of the dufus in the interview. That dude is younger than I am, why would I call him old?
Pants on Fire!!!!
What a jerk off
He says that mma was created by the white man to keep black and hispanic fighters down. Then his next statement was that it was not a racial issue. The one thing i agree with is that boxing is on another level in terms of money but I have no idea who the heavyweight champ is in boxing. Klitscko? (spelling?)Anyways boxing should cool it with revenue talk and give the fans some true champions and not 30.
what an ignorant mother fucker this guy is.
Here’s a simple solution……Let’s put Floyd in the cage against an average MMA fighter and see how long he lasts. Then let’s put them in the ring, and see how long the MMA guy lasts. In the cage, the MMA guy will make Floyd tap. In the ring, Floyd will whoop ass on the MMA guy, but i bet he wouldn’t knock him out. The fact is, the MMA guy will last a lot longer in the ring as Floyd would in the cage….and Floyd is the best fighter in Boxing.
I still can’t get over how ignorant this dude is………what a dipshit.
Jesus.
What a fucking moron.
Floyd is just jealous because people are getting more and more interested in watching MMA than boxing so he is trying to stir up some friction with the media.
I rather watch Melvin Guillard than this prick.
Can’t wait until he gets KO’d by Manny.
Ricky Hatton’s done well in boxing, Klitschko bros., Kelly Pavlick just beat down a top rated black guy, not once but twice, Arturo Gatti was Italian which is considered white, Micky Ward was a tough SOB …not to mention, White’s have always dominated wrestling, which in a street fight, like MMA is much more useful than boxing.
Yes Floyd’s hands would be fast in MMA with four ounce gloves, but how fast will they be when he has to defend head kicks, shots, elbows, knees, dirty boxing the clinch? That dude would be so scared of getting taken down that his hand speed would be irrelevant. Can you imagine what a couple of hard Thai kicks would do to his scronny little legs?
And to argue the conditioning level of boxers v.s. MMA artists is just retarded. Grappling is much more physically demanding than standing and banging, and anyone who has ever thrown a hard kick at a pair of focus mits knows that the kick takes a HELL of a lot more out of you than a punch. Shoot, punching the focus mits is BY FAR the easiest part of our workouts…the wrestling, sprawls, clinch, knees and kicking is what really gets me tired, I could box 20 freaking 3 minute rounds.
BTW, the top 10 PPV draws, most belong to Mike Tyson, two belong to Oscar, the only place you see Floyd’s name is next to Oscar’s and it was a helluva lot more to do with Oscar than Floyd.
great post….especially your points on conditioning. Boxers and MMA fighters are both incredibly conditon…minus BJ!
Those were the statements of a frightened man. A dumb, bigoted, frightened man. He is all too aware that he would be quickly destroyed if he were to ever set foot in the cage with an even mediocre mma fighter.
Jim Lampley told him to say that!
JOE CALZAGHE is white and unbeaten! Floyd is a fuckin dumbass boxing is going down the pan. We will see where boxing is in 10 years time.
Calzaghe is the biggest bitch made there has ever been in boxing.
Dude fights anybody worth a damn when they are out of their prime.
Floyd is right to an extent.
And anyone who thinks that Sherk would maul him is smoking crack rock.
dantrax, do you believe that Gayweather would stuff his take downs or something? MMA rules boxing every day of the week. GNP to a 40 second victory 99% of the time. Use your head for more than a hat rack.
How many kids are in boxing gyms right now? How many are joining MMA gyms? That’s it right fucking there. There’s your future of both sports. You aint gotta sell us your bullshit floyd, the people are telling you how they feel by their consumption habits.
He’s going to have a hard time boxing with a broken arm after being arm barred.
So what’s this mean? People go to boxing events and order wine?
No they all order Cristal Champagne like their idol P-Diddy.
The one thing he’s right about is when he says that MMA fighters couldn’t box well enough to make a living, so they atrted their own sport. No shit fellas…if Ken Shamrock, Tank Abott and Royce Gracie could make a living back then through boxing… there’d be no MMA today.
Truth
I disagree. They started their own sport because there was interest in seeing what a no-holds-barred all-styles-allowed martial arts fight would look like, and which styles would assert supremacy over others.
If baseball came along before football, would you argue that the baseball players who invented football weren’t good enough at their sport, so they made up a new one that better suited their skills? Even if they did, would it change the awesomeness of football today, or lessen the talent of its athletes?
And when did Royce Gracie or Ken Shamrock express any interest in pro boxing?
I’m assuming when they started training boxing before entering MMA.
LOL, you think Royce or Ken had trained boxing before UFC 1? Ever seen those guys punch?
Royce certainly not, but didn’t they try and make out that Shamrock was known as “One Punch” Ken Shamrock???
Well of course. That would be a matter of money though. Brock Lesnar even stated that he considered MMA way before his pro wrestling days but the WWE gave him the opportunity so he took that instead. That doesn’t mean that people who couldn’t make it in the WWE are making their own sport in MMA.
WWE is fake…just so you know.
Boxing isn’t just popping pills, weight-training, and reading a script…it’s hard…damn hard…too hard for most of the first (and still most now) MMA fighters.
Nothing to get pissy about just because Floyd said it. Ask any old-tim MMA fighter from back in the day, and I’m sure they’d tell you that they would have rather been boxing for tens of thousands – hundreds of thousands, than fighting in the UFC for a few hundred – a few thousand.
Again…don’t get pissy about it just becasue someone you don’t like said it…it’s truth.
I agree. Like I said. That has to do with money. The fact of the matter is, Royce was talented in BJJ. Not boxing. Tank Abbott even had a college wrestling background. This also has nothing to do with boxing. It’s not like everyone involved in MMA had failed at boxing. This sport is made up of all of the various disciplines and therefore attracted the fighters with these disciplines. This has nothing to do with being unable to compete in boxing.
And I am well aware of the WWE being fake. I find that to be highly irrelevant to the topic at hand however.
I agree that boxing is very difficult but so is MMA. MMA fighters would struggle at transitioning to boxing just like a boxer would struggle in transitioning to MMA.
Many fighters began wrestling in high school and pursued MMA because wrestling was a big part of the sport. There may be more money in boxing if you are able to rise to the very top of the heap, but otherwise, I don’t think so.
Stupid comment.
You guys have been saying “boxing is dead or dying” for ten fucking years lol.
Boxing is historic and a religion in some countries…just ’cause it’s fallen off the map in N.America a little, doesn’t mean shit…fuck, I’d bet there’s more people watching one of Manny Pacquiao’s fights in the Phillipines than there is watching 6 UFC’s all together…(although there’s probably 80 people in each house around each tv…I know some Filipinos lol)
This I agree with. Boxing is not dead and it isn’t going anywhere. It’s like saying baseball was going to die when the MLB had crap numbers after the strike. Boxing is in a rut, but it will be huge again.
WOW, those are some interesting comments from Floyd. It becomes inteesting even more when people find out that Floyd is involved (ownership) with an MMA gym right here in his backyard, Las Vegas. Yep, Jones and Spring Mtn. Rd!!!!!!!!!!!
Good hype though Floyd, LOL.
this guy is a pussy…boxing is for losers and he proves it…Pussy!!
Multi-million dollar “losers”…and tough as nails “pussy”s?
Yeah, every pro boxer could be considered ‘tougher’ than the average MMA wrestler, who often does his best to lie on his opponents and avoid getting hit. No way to bail out of getting punched in the face in a boxing match.
yes there is…its called “holding”
I was drinking a Coors Light while watching that video too, guess that makes me a hardcore MMA fan.
Floyd, go F yourself.
yaaaa wow he is shot and scared that mma is takin over boxing srry floyed its over
$250 million in two fights is rediculous. Great boxer with wealth, but what a d-bag. And why can’t he just be the bigger man and fight Pac Man. Shows right there that he’s only about $$$. Again, Big D-BAG.
Floyd will earn more in his next fight than all the UFC fighters on the next 5 or so UFC cards put together.
I’m sure all of your wise comments to him in this comment section about how he is a bum, loser, and has-been, and how boxing is “dead” is exactly what he’ll be thinking about when he cashes his next 5 paycheques for $25,000,000.00 a piece lol.
Alive and well my haters…alive and well.
true words introvert, but that does not take away from him being piece of shit… albeit a rich piece of shit.
Boxing isn’t dead. He earns a lot of money and he’s not a has-been. He’s a good boxer.
But he’s also a total f–ckin douchebag and a racist. Oh, and incredibly dumb.
What a moron, Last time I checked the Klitschko brothers were fairly dominate. If a white guy where to have said that everyone would be up in arms calling him racist.
May is a racist jerk-off. Padding his record in an era when there is less the stellar competition for him.
White people are slow and just not as athletic. Koscheck he knows what I’m talking about. Google it!
And what basis do you have for this? Steve Nash was running the NBA a couple years ago on his quickness and athleticism over a field full of blackmen. Your obviously just as moronic as Mayweather is. I’m sure he will be glad to know he’s not the only one that stupid.
That’s like me stating that most quaterbacks are white because it takes brains to play in that position, black people are to stupid and slow to think on their feet. It’s just as moronic as what you and mayweather are getting on with.
Sarcasm, about a comment Koscheck made one about Matt Hughes in an interview.
“Mixed martial arts fighter Josh Koscheck (9-1-0) has angered some fans with “racist” comments.
Speaking about former UFC champion Matt Hughes (41-5-0) in an interview with fistfirstfighting.com, Koscheck said “He’s slow. He’s a farmboy, and he’s white so he has no speed [and] no athletic ability.”
Later said he couldn’t be racist because he himself is half white.
Ray I was making a joke and just repeating something Koscheck once said. I responded with the actual Koscheck quote but it didn’t seem to post.

Well fook me
What an idiot. Talks like a homeboy and has nothing intelligent to say.
is he retarded?
hes a pussy and will duck pacquiao cause he knows he will get exposed.
I have to friends that are fighter 1 is a g.glove boxer the other is a muy tia boxer and my muy tia friend spanks him everytime becuase the boxer dose know how to defend all the other strikes so know the average mma fighter is mostly like to beat the boxer
he has a hard time speaking. But seem to be a good guy
ur kidding right? A good guy? He is a piece of garbage with a piece of shit dad and uncle. He has no respect for anyone and no brain….he will be broke in no time after boxing. He should take a note about how De la Hoya and Mosely act.
lol @ whites having to start their own thing….yeah. it’ called real fighting, and they do it very well.
I officially hate this duche.
i would love to see him square off against an mma fighter of similar size; frank brown, faber. i bet bj or kenflo would diet down to 147 to crack or snap this guy!
Learned to dislike him when I made the mistake of watching the Iron Ring. Anyway he is entitled to his opinion and I’m free to ignore it.
There are a lot of sports that I’m just not interested in so I ignore them, doesn’t bother me if people enjoy them. I don’t need to discredit the sport just because I do not find it interesting. Like soccer, baseball, basketball and nascar for example. Lot of people like them and I don’t. Just the way it goes. To each their own I say.
what an idiot prob wouldnt last one round against Bj and I think silva would murder roy jones jr this guy needs to stfu fucking arrogant piece of shit
I can’t stand listening to this guy talk but everytime I watch him train or box I’m in awe. Can’t deny that Floyd is one of the best boxers of all time and once he gets past Marquez hopefully it will be time to watch 2 greats in Floyd and Pac go at it.
All he can do is talk shit he doesn’t have the balls to step in the cage his sport is dieing his ship is about to sink the worst mma fighter would ass rape him
The only way to make this guy go away is to stop giving him any attention at all. Idiots, morons, racists, and over-arrogant pricks are everywhere, spread the hate around a little.
Hes SCARED he knows MMA has took over and he trying to stop it but its not goner happen mma fighter are the best in the wrold mayweather should step up and fight in an mma match vs faber or mike brown the money thing to is because like he said he get the money for the fight where as ufc fighter get 3% of the papaer view WE TAKIN OVER/ WE HAVE TOOK OVER LIKE 2 YEARS AGO
that was awesome
Floyd Mayweather jr is officially a fucking tool, go fuck your hat you motherfucker, im not saying that boxing is a joke or anything but this asshole obviously doesnt know what the fuck he’s talking about. and apparently race has a big impact with fighting ability … floyd is punch drunk and maybe he DOES need to step in the cage with a gatekeeper to realize that even though he brings in a lot of money he isnt as tough as his agent thinks he is
lol this guy knows MMA is taking over i dont remember the last time i paid for a boxing PPV and the whole “there are no great white fighters”????? umm ever hear of vladimir kirlenko???? lol fuckin idiot
Boxing has about three years max, then it’s completly downhill from there.
I hope he keeps on running around throwing $100 dollar bills around like they are confetti and carrying all that cash…then someone can rob this piece of shit.
You gonna try?
hell no…I don’t own a gun. lol
I totally agree that MMA is around just so white guys can dominate. Starting from Royce Gracie right through to Anderson Silva.
It’s the same as when white people invented hockey because they weren’t dominating football. They even have referees and divide the game into equal time periods like in football, but they only have 3 of them instead of 4, so clearly you don’t need the same level of stamina for hockey as you need for football.
That was the funniest post I have ever read on this site.Ever.
lol prokstar
Why is it people of color can make ridiculously racist comments like Mayweather’s but when a “white” man does it he’s a racist?! This guy is a poor example for his race and human garbage.
+1 being Pro Black or Brown is Ok but being Pro white is so wrong… F this tool he is passed his prime and will get jacked by Pac
This guy has and always will be a complete mental midget (physically a midget as well). The best boxers are typically from the same location – ghettos.
Why?
Becuase no where else on earth can a 7 year old child never go to school and walk down to the local gym and fight all day. In the real world, where responsible adults live, education is the priority. Not in the ghetto.
Look at all the great boxers. Where were the majority from? The ghetto. They have very little education and spent the majority of their childhood in the local gym.
Look at it this way, by the time a child that takes up boxing in the ghetto reaches the age of 18, he probably already has 10 solid years of fighting under his belt. By contrast, a non-ghetto 18 year old boxer is probably still a complete newbie at the sport.
This would all fly right over Mayweather’s tiny little head (which sits on a females frame).
Boxing is a sport of the past. It will never reach the popularity it had during the 80s – not even 1/10th that level. I was a huge boxing fan in the 80s. I know nothing about it now. In fact, I’ve only seen 2 rounds of Mayweather’s fight (B-O-R-I-N-G!).
MMA all the way!

He is right about one thing. MMA fighters will never make the money he does as long as they fight for someone other than themselves. People and Dana say boxing is bad or going away. Boxers are making more money to day than ever. That is because of one reason. Promotions and bid purses. There are no organizations in boxing. The best mma fighter in the world will never make what the tenth best boxer will. Sad
Mayweather is living on what past fighters made for him. The fact he even has something to say about MMA shows boxing is in trouble. Why you may ask is boxing in trouble because they have to keep paying the fighters more money than they are making is one big problem the other major problem is the fights now days are boring and Mayweather is one of the main problems…..stick and move does not sell PPV.
I like mma more. But truly you can not even compare the two. They are two different animals. Boxing is not trouble. People say that because there is not an American Heavyweight Champ.
Mayweather’s 10th-round knockout of England’s Ricky Hatton to retain the welterweight championship Dec. 8 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas generated a whopping 850,000 domestic pay-per-view buys and $47 million in television revenue, HBO PPV’s Mark Taffet said Monday. (espn) No ufc has every generated this kind of money on one fight.They have had more ppv buys but they never generated that much money of television revenue. You buy boxing for one fight. You buy mma for several fights. You take away ever fight but the main event of the ufc and it would not sell 150,000 ppv.
First impression about the guy = tool.
Tool’s are useful, this guy’s just a piece of fuck!ng steaming horsesh!t.
It’s time one of the sycophants surrounding him informed him that modern MMA begins as we know it with UFC 1. An event put on to showcase Gracie jiu jitsu. The Gracie family happens to be BRAZILIAN.
Not white people who couldn’t hang in boxing. Fun fact: the only boxer in the original tournament was Art Jimmerson, he happens to be Duh, Duh, Dun…Black!
If only he’d get in the cage with Miguel Torres. I know the WEC would never pay him enough. He’s too much about the pay day.
Floyd will get his first loss to the MANNY PACQUIAO! BET A LOT OF MONEY ON IT AND THANK ME LATER! He is only in it because he spends money like its going out of style and he is to high on him self. I can’t wait to see him get his HUMBLE PIE WHEN PACQUIAO BEATS HIM.
he just saying that cause ufc and his shit come back fight clash and he konws ufc will kick his ass that night he just talkin sh1t this will never end this knocking mma from boxers and boxing fans damn.pisses me off i lke both y cant they. and shit mayweather hasnt had an exciting fight in years he runs the whole fight and then the opponant gets tried hes nails them……… come on the white person thing hell he dosnt mine fighting white ppl when hes making money floyd shut ur mouth please speak when u have something origanal to say .
LOL what a joke he is , A boxer would never make it thru first round with an MMA guy , I hope that this guy someday joins UFC and get his ass kicked. Than he will understand that MMA guys train as hard as boxers do if not even harder.
Boxers just has to worry about there hands while mma guys has to train hands , legs , elbows , takedowns YOU NAME IT
Dana should offer him 10 million to fight BJ in an mma fight put it on ppv and shut his mouth permanently as BJ would spank his ass. I doubt Mayweather would take the fight, but he might for that kind of money.
you know what you guys can do? start praying to God JMM is gonna knock this fool out!
Is this dumb bastard for real – the MMA gym I go to they dont take beer drinkers – the odd blazer, but thats about it.
I aint a white guy but fuk me this guy is a champ and he thinks that Joe Calzaghe isnt dominant ??! fukin’ thick prick!!
Another racist black man! He a joke for what he said! I have lost respect for him. Well what i had left after his WWE appearence aginst the Big Show.
end of the day mma is more entertaining by far and one day top mma fighters will get much more money as for floyd he wouldnt be called money mayweather if it wasn’t for white money. ROCKY MARCIANO JOE CALZAGHE chew on that you fucking tree swinger in the words of joe rogan your sport is getting swallowed lol somebody head kick this cunt
Didn’t know we still had a nazi party in the UK.
Hahaha, I think british beef just committed a hate crime. LOL
218 comments and counting…….
Boxing must be dead lol. The only article here that challenges this one is the Tito one, and Tito’s an overrated has-been too right? lol
You guys are so funny.
A lot of comments has nothing to do with whether boxing is dead or not and neither would it if there were just one.
It’s the fact that he made not just one retarded comment but several in succession, about MMA. This is about MMA more than it is about boxing. Although I never made any comment about boxing being dead.
haha poor floyd. he is trying anything to get the subject away from him fighting mma…he doesnt wanna fight mma, hell he doesnt even wanna fight a boxer thats a in the same weight class. this guys a joke, do everyone a favor and stop posting anything with floyd. it just pisses people off and isnt relevant to mma. stop giving this guy attention.
and also floyd. mma didnt steal any blueprint from boxing. cutmen and docs are there for fighter safety and is put in place by the athletic commision for santioning on top of safety. PLEASE NO MORE FLYOD POSTS UNTIL HE IS PUTTING ON 4oz GLOVES
Jose Aldo would kill Floyd Mayweather Jr. I would say in the 1st round. Jose Aldo would show Floyd Mayweather Jr how a real man stands and fights. I would like to a see Jose Aldo .vs Floyd Mayweather Jr. Floyd Mayweather Jr. would never take that fight because he would get raped.
Hmm Miguel Torres and Anderson Silva are two of the greatest fighters on the planet! What a fucking idiot, why bring race into it? I love watching boxing but he just exudes the fear that all people in boxing hold, due to the knowledge that MMA is taking over!
Well, let’s not forget that Dana White told Mayweather that he would organize a fight with Mayweather and Sean Serk (UFC champ).
Mayweatehr’s response? A complete apology telling the world how much he respects UFC fighters and how he didn’t want to fight a UFC fighter. He sure wanted to put that offer to rest REALLY fast!
Funny thing is, I can’t even tell you who Mayweather is fighting next, couldn’t care less. Boxing is so boring.
MMA all the way!
I might be wrong, but I think boxing still pays a bit more for starter fighters. Superstars in boxing also make more than superstars in mma. That is what drives hispanics and blacks toward boxing. I also don’t think there is that many MMA schools in these two communities. Trust me MMA will take off in these communities, but it will take time. Dana has some people that can help that. Miguel Torres, Jon Jones, Anthony Johnson, Diego Sanchez, Rampage, Kenny Florian, Anderson Silva, Cain Valazquez…etc will help.
I remember the Mayweather/Sherk proposal…. he backed down real friggin quick after Dana pretty much told him to “put up or shut up”.. Mayweather’s a great fighter, but he would get his head beat in or his arm broken if he ever stepped foot in a cage…. I’ve seen Mayweather fight on PPV, and that’s the last damn time that’ll happen…if MMA’s not on his level, why don’t his pussy ass prove it…
He’s a sad, angry, frail, black man… Nobody comes running when they see him, nobody cares. MMA has taken over his dream of deing a houshold name… Nobody cares.
He’s fading quickly and MMA is rising quickly.
Not sure what else to say.
