Schaefer: Floyd-Mosley on 3/13 "unlikely"

no matter how Floyd tries to spin it afterwards.

if he doesn’t call for blood testing i’m going to hate mayweather for all of eternity. dude’s an ass

I’m sure once they start writing the contract for the fight, Floyd will want random blood testing. Shane will most likely agree, since he really wants to fight Mayweather (as opposed to Pacquiao, who would rather do PEDs and fight washed up fighters).

Which is why, if this fight gets made, they’ll both make a point to include that clause in this fight’s deal, and they’ll both make a point to tell the media about how they’re pioneering an era of stronger testing to improve the sport. All of which is true I guess, just very backhanded.

lol maybe i should i have scrolled down before making my previous comment

than for being on the undercard of a big PPV. That said, all the terms of a PPV are negotiable.

Than Hopkins-Jones.

If it happens it’s gonna be on the Hopkins-Jones show. Glad, too, since I’m biting the bullet and ordering that show to provide live coverage here, and letting Brick or someone do the Super Six that night.

Yeah, this actually came up just in interviews or whatever when Manny and Floyd were going back-and-forth on the issue. Mosley was like, “I’ll take ’em. Anybody wanna fight? Anybody want a peanut?” They’re going to do the testing for Floyd-Shane. It’s really not even a question.

as saying he’d agree to the random drug testing. Which is just dandy, I suppose. But it’s not going to change anything, at least on a large scale. Unless it’s in the contract, there’s just no good way to enforce it. State commissions can’t leave the state to go where people train to get blood tests. Plus, it’s way more expensive than urine tests, which is a big deal for smaller cards.

And he knows that if he beats Mosley and wins, he makes a lot more money in the long run than he would if he fought someone like Cintron.

I hope you like it here.

I hate how much boxing has become a business more than a sport

Here’s a quote from all the way back in 1910 which you may find interesting.

There is too much commercialism about it and the question of who is really the better man is not at stake. They are fighting for the purse and moving picture receipts.

It wouldn’t have been that way twenty years ago. The people would have thrown brickbats at the fighters if they had attempted such a game. In those days scrappers had to fight first and do their show work afterwards. The boxing game is not being conducted the way it should be and it is only the question of time until the public will refuse to stand for the present methods."

But……..why not fight the best to prove you are the best. I believe those who really have heart take fights on a verbal challenge. Nobody wants to go in the ring and not get paid the big money. I wish fighters were made to fight who they are supposed to fight based on a ranking system. We would’nt have these super-fights that fall through the floor because of small details. All in all, that isn’t the way it is, so I could go on forever. I hope Money takes this fight and gives the people what they need. Cintron is a joke……..
