Floyd isn't going to try to knock out Manny. He's just putting that out there in hopes that it will affect how Manny trains.
Roach has been around and is too good of a trainer for that to even be a (bleep) thought in his camp.
I dont think anyone thinks a mind game like that would work, but I think Floyd will throw out as many things as possible out there between now and the fight. None of them will work, but it's not like it takes effort to try.
I can't wait for 24/7. I've never seen Floyd so quiet. He's not playing any games, he's getting ready for the fight of his life! _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I don't know if they gonna do 24/7.

There’s already talk that there won’t be an HBO 24/7 and Showtime All Access series.
In place of the four-episode series, HBO and Showtime will be televising a single one-hour documentary on the two fighters, which they’ll televise over and over again to increase the chances of reaching all the boxing fans.
It’s going to be interesting to see if the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight will be able to bring in 3 million pay-per-view buys or more with the fighters not doing a long press tour, and there not being the 24/7 and All Access episodes.

Found this on some boxing website.
TThat's understandable. There's really no need to sell this fight, it's already sold itself, the world wants too see Mayweather vs Pacquiao.
Say what you will but it's all about Mayweather, Floyd is the reason for the season. He made the world wait and the world will pay through the nose to see him lose.
It will be really disappointing if it turns out to be a stinker.
Not trying to bee a Debbie Downer but it's going to have to be a war to live up to the hype and Floyd's not going to go to war.
Hey dough, remember I said this fight could be the first $100.00 PPV? _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Good luck to everyone trying to get tickets to the fight.
People who usually have no problem getting 25+tickets directly from the promoters and fighters are being told they will only be able to purchase 2 tickets for the fight.

They will easily fetch 10k. They said around 7500 but a couple of scalpers will find a way. They may also get paid nicely making duplicate tickets. Can you imagine someone paying a scalper five grand on the streets and not get in???

Maybe those that can afford it will spend it. I understand ringside seat are going for 200k. I ain't mad at MoneyMay for delaying the fight. I believe it was the plan all the while.
This is going to be the biggest money fight in the history of he sport. Fans will flock to the arena and PPV to see him lose. He's going to disappoint a whole lot of people.
I've told the story of the rich White woman who went to all of Ali's fight because she wanted to be there when he got his ass kicked. Same with Floyd.
I don't know about Floyd but I'm a little scard bout dis one. Pac Man ain't no joke. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

when do the tickets go on sale? Is it going to be exclusive? Or is it going to be one of those crazy ordeals where you go on line and hope you land one when the webpage launches the sale?

I really would be skeptical about buying any ticket not sold by a reputable dealer. I'd be pissed if I bought a ticket, got to my seat and found someone sitting there with a ticket.
Scalpers will have multiple changes of clothes, they'll constantly be on the move. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Koncz hired a consultant to keep an eye on USADA because of their close ties to Floyd. Even though I can't see any funny business going on, seems like a smart move on Koncz' part.
We're only 7 weeks away from the fight, so I'm still expecting some sort of controversy o come up. _________________ Just chill and watch the new Dynasty evolve...

Angel Heredia isn't working with Floyd. http://goo.gl/QUPqGQ Weirdest thing is how Alex Ariza consulted him, but he had also talked (bleep) about him before... LOL _________________ Just chill and watch the new Dynasty evolve...

it's terribly wrong not to have 24/7 for this fight. it's just not right. _________________ "Now, if life is coffee, then the jobs, money & position in society are the cups.

Will there be a "Face Off" (w/ Max Kellerman) with these two? Never heard whether there would or wouldn't be.
If you think about it, realistically, it would be a little 'bit boring. If Floyd tries to talk trash, it kinda gets lost in translation if he does it against Manny. Manny is too nice for those shows and a 'bit of a goofball, so there really isn't much tension when Face Offs happen. And Manny, is becoming more and more of a politician each time because his standard response is, "well, we'll both train hard and give a good fight to the fans."...LOL.
If you had seen the interview with Manny, Stephen A., and Skip, Stephen A. interpreted Manny's words as disrespectful, but I don't think Manny really understood the sentiments of what Stephen A. was saying. Manny just kept laughing, then capped off the interview with, "Peace be with you, brother."...hahaha _________________ Just chill and watch the new Dynasty evolve...
