Mayweather keeps up his treatment of females by banning Rachel Nichols and Michelle Beadle from the media credentialled crew. Its his party and he doesnt want them there, they aint allowed....simple... This is no way excuses him from being anything short of a piece of shit of a human being, |

Quote: Mayweather’s history of out-of-the-ring punch-throwing—the history we know of through arrest and court records, at least—extends over more than 12 years and includes at least seven separate physical assaults on five different women. The pattern of battery has been painstakingly documented, by the courts and the media. But it is treated, for the most part, merely as an awkward footnote to Mayweather’s story of greatness and grandeur. It has become one of the most pernicious things there is: an open secret. Which is bizarre, and disappointing, and sad. Mel Gibson made anti-Semitic comments, and they got tons of attention, and generated widespread indignation and outrage, and now his career is effectively over. Floyd Mayweather is said to have bashed his girlfriend’s face with a car door; on Saturday, wearing a mouthguard made of money, he will stride onto a stage surrounded by thousands of cheering fans. He will throw a few (more) punches. He will walk away from the event with more than $100 million. Quote: Mayweather may forget that. He may hope the rest of us do, too. Last week, while the man who gets paid to punch was doing a red carpet event, an ESPN reporter attempted to question him about his criminal record. “In your case, there’s been actual convictions and no governing body has ever suspended you or sanctioned you,” John Barr pointed out. “What message do you think that sends victims of domestic violence?” Mayweather did what he has become so supremely skilled at doing: He slipped the punch. “Honestly, I want everybody to tune in May second,” he replied to his questioner. “Mayweather versus Pacquiao. This is the fight that you can’t miss.” http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainmen ... er/392018/ |

Mayweather's a piece of shit but Beadle and Nichols are self-righteous idiots who supposedly weren't ever banned. |

So I've heard both spins this week. A - It's a pro-Mayweather ref that will break up every clinch and not force anyone to fight out of it. B - The gloves are smaller and will allow Paq to inflict more punishment. |

Mayweather with a TKO in Round 7. Hard to bet against 47-0. |

So they can have a re-match in 6 months...which Mayweather wins in a decision....and then they have a 3rd fight a year from now. Over a billion dollars between them for 3 fights. |

Rachel Nichols · @Rachel__Nichols 2nd May 2015 from TwitLonger Have had a bunch of folks asking questions about the Mayweather issue. Here's what happened: After asking tough questions of Floyd Mayweather on my program, I was not offered press credentials to cover tonight's fight. In an email dated April 23, I was told I would only be credentialed for the run-up events through the week, but in bold, italic letters the email stated "you do not have any access Saturday to any services or events." A CNN producer revisited the issue with the Mayweather camp on April 29, confirming to Mayweather's publicist that I would be in Las Vegas, and the publicist replied that I would still be denied a fight night credential. I was told the same thing when I arrived at the credential office in person on May 1, by two separate officials, in front of several other people. It doesn't surprise me that now, after facing significant backlash, the Mayweather camp has reversed its position. But despite this, and other outside parties generously offering me their seats, I will not attend the fight. I will also not let fear of retaliation prevent me from asking the tough questions the public deserves answers to in the future |

Dr. Kenneth Noisewater wrote: So I've heard both spins this week. Pacquiao is not an inside pressure fighter so while the ref may have been overactive in Mayweather-Maidana II, he won't really have any cause to do so here. A - It's a pro-Mayweather ref that will break up every clinch and not force anyone to fight out of it. B - The gloves are smaller and will allow Paq to inflict more punishment. Both fighters are wearing standard welterweight size gloves. Pacquiao's puncher gloves consisting of less padding were approved by the commission despite the Mayweather camp's protests, something they did successfully challenge and change against Maidana. |

As this gets closer, I'm getting a WWE vibe. Carry each other for the first 5 or 6 to make sure there is demand for 1 or 2 more after this one. |

These undercards are ridiculously one-sided. Two fights where only one fighter has won a round. |
