Mayweather: I love displaying my talents

Hall of Fame boxer Floyd “Money” Mayweather promises a special and unique boxing experience when he returns to the ring this Saturday, May 14 headlining “The Global Titans Fight Series” in an exhibition against unbeaten “Dangerous” Don Moore that serves as the main event of a pay-per-view lineup taking place “in the skies of Dubai” outdoors on the helipad of Dubai’s opulent Burj Al Arab Hotel.

“I promise you’ve never seen a boxing event like this,” said Mayweather. “I’m going to continue to break barriers on May 14. This is a once-in-a-lifetime event and I’m a once-in-a-lifetime fighter. There’s no one else in the sport who could headline an event this over the top. I’m going to give the fans what they paid for.

“I love displaying my talents for the whole world and doing something new that interests me. Boxing is entertainment, and that’s what I’m all about. I worked hard to accomplish more than anyone during my career, and now I’m going to enjoy the fruits of my labor, while still giving fans something exciting to watch.

“They always say the sky is the limit, well I feel like I’m pushing the limit in the entertainment world once again, going up and literally fighting in the sky. These are the kind of opportunities that I’m always going to jump at.

“I’ve known [opponent Don Moore] for a long time and I know that he’s a very smart fighter who I can’t take lightly. I believe that he’s coming to prove something in this fight. On top of this fight being at a one-of-a-kind venue, you’re going to see a guy coming in to take his shot at The Best Ever.”

  • Which talent???? Running away and avoid fighting???? He should be ashamed of his career Pac-Man was 10 times better fighting toe to toe dropping his opponents 3-4 times per fight and giving exciting fights not sleeping bored fight like Floyd chickenweather

    • C,
      Did you C Pac’s last fight vs. Marquez? Just asking. Also, for future reference, C Pac’s last fight vs Ugas, then watch May’s last real fight. You Mickey Ward worshippers have to realize there are different ways to approach boxing.

      • They think that good boxing is taking punishment. Where are the so called fans when the fighter is retired and can’t remember his name? Manny took losses and that is what people remember. Remember, Floyd is the only fighter to ever make a billion $ from boxing and he also retired undefeated.

        • You could have stopped with the first sentence. Why you bragging about another’s man’s money?

  • “I’m going to give the fans what they paid for.”
    – Since I’m not paying anything because I am not watching this event, Floyd owes me nothing.

  • It’s hilarious to me that this moron thinks he’s still relevant. No one cares!! What talents is he planning on showcasing?? Shooting up xylocaine, making ALL the rules for the “fight”, carefully picking who and WHEN to fight, using steroids and getting away with it, running away the majority of the “fight” and stinking up the place, demanding the fighter uses different gloves or the fight is off, using the same three judges and ref for every fight, only fighting in Vegas, making any opponent that’s a threat wait a decade to fight?? I mean the guy has so many talents it’s hard to remember them all. I know there are way more!!

    • Tyrone, good point. Mayweather catering to sheeple that will pay into his money scam doing a scripted fight called an exhibition. What a joke. Mayweather’s era is over, and we are done. Time to move on.

  • Oh geez, will you please find a life already little Floyd?! Find a hobby or just take a long walk on a short pier already.

    Attention whore will do anything to stay relevant! Who in their right mind would possibly pay to see this boring clown fight…

  • No thanks, Floyd. Please relax in the boxing shade and let the young cats play in the boxing sun.

  • Poor Floyd. This guy is realizing first hand that money really doesn’t help a narcissist like himself…And no, you are not the best ever. Could of been, but you were to much of a chicken. Oh , and say hello to that pathetic, greasy headed bag, Alfred Haymon. 2 peas in a pod you are.

    • Fraud gayweather isn’t a all time great. He will forever be remembered as an insecure ducking manlet bum. Actually I take that back, 100 yrs from now people will forget fraud gayweather even existed.

  • Once again, I have to rebut these emotional and asinine comments with facts: Pacman has 62 wins and 39 by KO, Floyd has 50 wins and 27 by KO; see any difference? In addition; Pacman has 8 losses and 3 by brutal KO, Floyd has no losses…making sense yet? Unreal…

    • Now compare to Ray Robinson or Julio Chavez. Ricardo Lopez has a better record based on your logic

    • DMV, please get little Floyd’s nut sack out of your mouth already! I bet you have a tattoo on your tush that says this booty belongs to my man Floyd!

    • Floyd was gifted a decision in the Castillo 1 fight. Literally, Floyd lost the fight, but the corruption gifted the HBO investment the decision to Floyd. Yes, he’s undefeated, but in reality, a loss in my book.

    • Pacman the only 8 different weight division world champion also started his career out at 105lbs unified champion 4 weight division unified champion Floyd catch weight world champion in 2 weight divisions and 8 title fights won his 50th pro fight against a fighter making his debut still was NEVER undisputed in any weight division 11 year longest winning streak in hometown fights and also the only fighter in history allowed to pick judges but i mean yea he was great at least top 15 all time list

    • Floyd’s last “fight” was against a non-boxer. How the Nevada commission approved that farce I’ll never know!

  • Funny how this narcissist Floyd feels the need to post stupid pictures of his winning bets but never posts his losing bets. I see he’s placing less and less money on his bets he must be going broke.

    Low life narcissistic clown is also known for burning people he does business with never paying them what he owes them. Welfare will be his next step.

  • Mayweather is delusional.. please someone bring this guy down to earth and let him become humble!

  • Young man’s game. Give Mayweather credit for doing Maidana fight twice. He probably wishes he fought Khan just once. Guerrero and Ortiz had little chance vs Mayweather. A 135 lbs version of Floyd vs Manny or Marquez at 135, maybe pretty interesting. Floyd just in it now for small paydays (by his standards from between De La Hoya to Berto fights) in exhibitions.

  • I’ll summarize a response to you Floyd haters comments in one swoop: a) Pacqaio took steroids in order to go through the weight classes to accomplish the feat he completed (8 division champ). b) Floyd at 130, 135, and 140 had action packed fights and produced spectacular stoppages (see Corrales, Manfredy, Chavez, Ndou, Mitchell, Gatti, Burtonon youtube) to name a few. c) Floyd had major hand issues from the beat downs he handed out; so his style changed the second to latter half of his career. d) Floyd made more money than Chaves and Sugar Ray Robinson combined, so he must be doing something right, and both those fighters were gifted decisions during their careers. Plus Floyd won titles in 5 weight classes while Chaves won in 3 and Robinson in 2 weight classes. e) Whether he was gifted a decision against Castillo is irrelevant as almost every known fighter in the history of boxing was gifted at least one decision in their career (see d). f) Ricardo Lopez fought at 105 lbs, nobody cares about that weight class, and he in fact was preserved from a loss when they robbed Rosendo Alvarez…facts. g) You all get off TBE’s nutsack for living his life, and if he wants to box exhibitions and make money, than so be it; don’t watch. Give the man his due. Top 15 fighter of all time. From the words of the late Roger Mayweather: “Y’all don’t know shit about boxing.” Out!

    • DMV = the Mayweather groupie. Why get all angry when someone speaks out on how they feel about Floyd? He wasn’t a bad little fighter but to compare him to Hearns, Duran and Leonard is almost blasphemy. People are entitled to an opinion, it’s not to get your panties all in a bunch, buddy.

    • Speculation, lie, hearsay. Protected from real threats as he avoided plenty in all his weight divisions. He did in fact juice plenty.

      Take a look at the contract with Paquiao and a particular clause attached last minute. Look upnMichael Montero’s report on the funny business that took place for that fight.

      Between lightweight and Welter, he would not crack top 15. There’s a whole line of fighters that would have either shredded, mailed, mugged or out boxed him.

  • Either come back and fight real fights or pack it in. I am so tired of all these type of horsing around for huge purses, while young, real dedicated fighters struggle to get good money.

  • Floyd was a highly skilled and beautiful defensive fighter to watch in his heyday’s, but I have to admit he’s irrelevant today.. He shouldn’t be involved in this kind of events anymore and just enjoy is money well earned..
    Don’t get me wrong, Floyd’s boxing abilities and movements were a beauty to watch but I wasn’t a fan of his because of the lack of action in his fights..

    • And yes you can love the way he throws his punches but find his fights boring…

  • Being a slave to fame mixed with serious narcissism makes for a very hard transition away from the spotlight.

    He will continue to make millions off of exhibitions as long as people continue to pay for it.
