Took my first punch today at the boxing gym.

I was doing counter-drills with this husk white guy.

I dropped my hands for a split-second and caught me right on the jaw.

I wanted to buckle, but I couldn't let the guys think I was punk.

I can't wait to sparr for real tho.

:gladbron::gladbron: at your signature


@yoyoyo1 :damn: James Prince took him apart


i really wish pascal-cloud wasn't cancelled..that would have been a good slugfest that could have been a shot in the arm for 175

Someone would have got dropped but it's looking like Dawson vs Stevenson will happen :leon:

So, Broner now aint beat the best opponents available at 130 and 135 lbs now?


Ricky Burns running scared, he beat DeMarco who was the 135 champ for the title, he beat Vincente Rodriguez for the vacant 130lb title, beat Daniel Ponce De Leon, knocked out Vincente Escobedo in 5 rounds (while Robert Guerrero went the distance with him and yet you dont complain about RG being a bad opponent for Floyd).


Who was available that he missed while he was at 130 and then at 135 that wasnt a Top Rank fighter?


Waiting.........:popcorn:

Andre can't act like he is high and mighty with god when he at times talk a little smack talk on twitter etc..
mayweather's little outburst with his insult to ward is just the insecure and bitterness he can be at times, floyd doesn't take it lightly when others side against him.
I laugh if ward walks to the ring with the ghost on the 4th of may.

And that invitation on his blueprint for knowing how to get millions - we pass on that, because we know how to make millions, but more importantly, how to keep it."

Another thing, people saying Broner is "ducking" the competition at 140?:what:

At 147, if he chose to stay there.....which I dont think he will, has JMM/Pacquiao/Robert Guerrero/Kell Brook/Timothy Bradley/Victor Ortiz/Devon Alexander/Keith Thurman/Andre Berto/Paulie Malignaggi as top 10 opponents there. That's not a weak division at all and I didnt even include Floyd.


Comparing the 147 "easy" division to the so called "stacked" 140 who's top 10 ranking has Danny Garcia, Lucas Matthysse, Amir Khan, Lamont Peterson, Zab Judah, Brandon Rios, Khabib Allakhverdiev, Mike Alvarado, Denis Shafikov, Ruslan Provodnikov......:ufdup:



Broner would be fighting better top opponents at 147 to be honest.

That's what I'm saying. How you dikk ride Floyd but shyt on Broner.....

FLOYD MAYWEATHER: "I HOLD ALL THE CARDS...NO FIGHTER IS GOING TO GIVE ME AN ULTIMATUM" || FIGHTHYPE


Floyd Mayweather fights for self-preservation. I come first, so Floyd Mayweather's gonna go out there and fight and please Floyd Mayweather first before he pleases anyone else. They're saying I'm hand-picking opponents, but no one is forced to watch me fight. If all these other fighters are better and they're fighting tougher competition, well guess what; I bet our bank accounts don't look the same.


Bet yet he hates on Broner while Mayweather is putting out interviews talking about fighting for "self-preservation" and we're not forced to watch him fight if we say he hand picks opponents:snoop:


It's the same damn thing:bryan:

What the hell is Ward selling out, nikka cant even fight out of his home town , Whats the common denominator in this equation Prince, Prince so quick to hate he's lightweight dissing himself


Mayweather was simply trying to educate Ward giving him some food for though to why he's fighting for a million dollars less then up and comers like Garcia, he's unpopular and his career is in shambles as the big money fighters are avoiding him and wont look his way, he basically has no fights left really, on top of that Prince with his antics beat Leonard Ellerbe and extorting fighters like Mosley and such has made him and his fighters pariah in this sport, nobody want to touch them especially Arum who step in for Floyd, and Golden Boy.......................

i think the reason why floyd went at andre was because he's the biggest threat to his p4p status....andre cleared out one of the toughest divisions in boxing and beat down the man at 175 while floyd is fighting nikkas like robert guerrero:leostare::upsetfavre:

168- and 175 aint tough you have a 50 year old still the second best fighters in those divisions, never before have I seen a guy gets so much unwarranted praise for fighting a bunch of B class at best fighters, in his hometown with every advantage possible, and a drug cheat Conte in his corner..............................



As far as the Mayweather Ward thing goes, its a couple things that goes into this eqaution, Mayweather is using Ward to completely cast a shadow over the Canelo Trout pressers thats taking place, and he used a non issue over Guerrero to make Ward and crew angry. On top of that Richard Schaeffer buddy Bhop already told Ward he wouldnt fight him for any amount of money, even though Ward said yesterday he would fight BHOP at 175, Ward and HBO(what they were trying to setup saturday) knowing thats Ward only sellable fight and his only big money fight available, they are playing chess :troll: 'in Ward. And then FLoyd tried to send the signal that you are not getting big money fights cause of your management, and that he needs to be where he's at, the only way he gets the Money and fights he want is coming to GB/Haymon, thats the only way he get the BHOP fight. Now their is talks of Bhop dropping to 168 and fight Froch Wards only other money fight.........GB and crew is trying to court Ward who has no fights and career is in shambles and they are already ten steps ahead of his ass, poking him from every single direction(even Bhop trying to court showtime after his fight, when HBO wants the Ward match obviousky), and they even let FLoyd get some in on Ward
