@ Shawns expression when he heard Floyd wanted to fight Mayfield or Berto instead of him.I like the way Keith Thurman approached this. He said said he either wants to fight Floyd or he wants to go watch him train so he can learn from him.

And he's still a good enough boxer to gauge younger welterweights coming up.
Karim Mayfield or Andre Berto.
Good post
Broner is making his own bed...it's not gonna end well,he ain't gonna listen.
And one day when he is on skid row,there will be no sympathy...
I can root for Errol Spence all day,class over a clown.
FLOYD MAYWEATHER "100% SERIOUS" ABOUT FIGHTING ANDRE BERTO OR KARIM MAYFIELD; WANTS PORTER VS. BRONER 2 ON UNDERCARD
By Ben Thompson | June 23, 2015
"Absolutely! 100% serious...we're looking forward to Keith Thurman fighting Errol Spence on my undercard in September..And of course, on that same undercard, we have to do the Broner and Shawn Porter part 2, the rematch," stated undefeated pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather, who talked about his plans for his anticipated September return to the ring. Check it out!
BT: Last week, you mentioned two names that you're currently considering as your opponent in September: Andre Berto and Karim Mayfield. For whatever reason, some people thought you might be joking, so just to clarify, you were serious, right?
FM: Absolutely! 100% serious! I think when it's all said and done, people are just going to really miss Floyd Mayweather.
BT: Judging from your comments over the weekend, it sounds like you're hoping to put together a stacked card for that final fight of your contract.
FM: Well, you know, we're looking forward to Keith Thurman fighting Errol Spence on my undercard in September. Me and Errol Spence already communicated. He wants to fight Keith Thurman first and then he wants to fight Shawn Porter next. He said he's young and he's hungry and he wants to prove himself. With that performance Saturday night, I think he got them boys kind of nervous, from what I hear. Errol Spence said it himself; he feels that Keith Thurman is scared. Keith Thurman, he's a solid competitor. I mean, he had a tougher time with Guerrero than I did, but he's a solid competitor. And of course, on that same undercard, we have to do the Broner and Shawn Porter part 2, the rematch.
BT: Even though your fighting career is coming to an end, your promotional career is starting to take it off. I saw quite a few celebrities in attendance for the first Mayweather Promotions card on NBC. As a whole, what did you think about the event?
FM: I think we had a great turnout. We had Justin Bieber, the MVP of the Finals, Iguodala; I mean, I'm happy with the turnout. Mayweather Promotions, we're still learning and we're still growing. We're not trying to outdo nobody. We just want to stay in our lane and continue to grow and continue to help fighters get to that next level. So all the fighters that are trying to go to the next level, we're trying to help you get to that level.

Hilarious

And of course Timmy talking extra greasy

The tragic thing about Bradley is his lack of power.
If he had even a decent bit of KO power he 'd be far bigger and more successful.

Vargas gon get his ass WHOOPED...
You can't have a trainer who still thinks he's a fighter, and that is exactly what Morales is... and so is Roy Jones... Why does he pick these dudes? Get a real trainer... You're too good for this bullshit, Jesse.
Get yourself a REAL trainer. Not somebody who wants to be in the limelight... A real-deal trainer.

Fuck him...
I lost respect for him as a commentator the day he sold his soul to Al Haymon.... Because right before that he was SHITTIN on Haymon because he believed that Al Haymon orchestrated his loss to Adrien Broner...
But once Uncle Al came with that contract... He changed his tune completely...
I used to be a BIG fan of his, BTW... until he did that... After that, he was never the same.... Now when he talks, you can tell that his words have been pre-written... He's a PBC shill now... A lost brotha...

Maybe he was switchin stances like Rocky
This nigga Broner, man...
Usually the one that smiles first gets his ass whooped...ims
True... in the main promo pic for a movie named Southpaw that makes a lot of sense
youre such an asshole
I dont even know if Porter deserves credit now

Add another name to the Mayweather sweepstakes:
Manny Pacquiao progressing, to return to the U.S. for follow-up on shoulder
Dan Rafael, ESPN Senior Writer
CARSON, Calif. -- Former eight-division titleholder Manny Pacquiao, who had surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff in his right shoulder following his decision loss to Floyd Mayweather on May 2 in the richest fight in boxing history, is coming along well in his recovery, Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told ESPN.com on Thursday.
"Manny says he has been doing well. He said he has been feeling better," Arum said following the final news conference for Saturday night's interim welterweight title bout between Timothy Bradley Jr. and Jessie Vargas at the StubHub Center.
Arum said Pacquiao will return to the United States from the Philippines around July 4 for a follow-up exam with Dr. Neal ElAttrache, the famed orthopedic surgeon who performed the 90-minute procedure on Pacquiao's shoulder.
"Manny is coming over to see the doctor and then he will start his serious rehab," Arum said. "He'll stay here for probably about two weeks and then he will go back to the Philippines. One of the rehab guys will go with him to make sure he is doing his rehab program the right way."
Arum said he has been in touch with Pacquiao regularly since the welterweight title unification fight with Mayweather.
"Every week he calls and I update him on the money that is coming in. It's money like he's never seen before," Arum said of the returns on the bout that crushed every boxing record, including selling 4.4 million pay-per-view subscriptions and generating a total gross of about $600 million.
The injury will keep Pacquiao (57-6-2, 38 KOs) out of the ring for the rest of the year. Arum said he expects Pacquiao to fight again in the first half of 2016 as long as his shoulder heals as expected.
Back to what Paulie said before, "Where is the MRI?!?!"
