Anyone who watched the HBO Pay-Per-View on Saturday May 1, you just witnessed greatness.
Floyd “Greatest Ever” Mayweather Jr. proved all the haters wrong, he destroyed Shane Mosley, another guy that the haters said would beat Mayweather.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. is not only the Pound-4-Pound best in boxing, he is the number one attraction. People pay to see Floyd “Money” Mayweather. The celebs came out in droves, from Will Smith, Mark Wahlberg, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Tommy Hearns, Eva Longoria, Jets QB Mark Sanchez, Magic Johnson, Jamie Foxx, Mariah Carey, P Diddy, Paris Hilton, Michael J. Fox, the list goes on and on too many to name.
The rich and famous are fans of Floyd Mayweather. You never see this type of celebrity fanfare or this many powerful people at Pacquiao fights.
Who does Pacquiao got? Mark Wahlberg, Will Ferrell, Robert Duval and Jeremy Piven? Basically guys who work for HBO and probably given free tickets from HBO to watch Pacquiao.
I said it before (Mayweather Will Defeat Mosley And Then Pacquiao) every time Mayweather wins they always look for a savior, someone they think can stop him or give him his first loss.
I gotta give Mosley credit he came to fight and actually wobbled Mayweather Jr. with some hard right hands, but again, Mayweather proved that power and speed don’t win fights it’s the skills that pays the bills.
What shocked me was how much bigger and stronger Floyd Mayweather Jr. was compared to Shane Mosley, I guess Mosley wasn’t that strong without his steroids.

I can already hear the excuses now; Mosley was 40 years old he got old over night!, Floyd hand picked an old man and the blood testing made Mosley weak, Mosley had to drain himself to make 147…..all that excuses can go in the garbage can.
Like Floyd told Jim Rome “Opinions are like Assholes, everyone’s got one”
Now, onto Manny “The Pacman” Pacquiao, the carefully hyped up savior who the Floyd haters believe will be the man to figure the Mayweather riddle. Like Floyd said Manny Pacquiao doesn’t want to fight him, it’s the people who are forcing the fight on him.
Manny Pacquiao couldn’t solve the Juan Manuel Marquez puzzle so what makes you think he can solve the most scientific, intelligent fighter of all times puzzle? It’s laughable, people who know boxing laugh when they hear something so ignorant.
How can a wild and reckless former 106-pound fighter who has a G.E.D in brawling beat a man who has a PhD in the sweet science?
If Freddie Roach and Bob Arum have confidence in their fighter why don’t they take the blood tests, I mean if your fighter Manny Pacquiao the supposed “Fighter of the Decade” is clean he would just take them.
Honestly speaking, Manny Pacquiao couldn’t even beat Sugar Shane Mosley, Freddie Roach wanted Mosley to drain himself to 142-pounds, that is a despicable act right there, Mosley could have died in the ring if Pacquiao feasted on yet another dead man walking.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao is not even close, Money May all day, I will put my money down on the for sure money, that’s Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Line them up! One by one! Money Mayweather will put them away and send them into retirement.
