Can't Stop This OtG


Manny pacquiao will knock him down and finish him this time. He escaped knockdown calls at the zab judah fight where he fell and he clearly touched the canvas with his gloves and same as the castillo fight. It’s amazing how he was able to manipulate refs and judges to get a decision on his favor.
Whatever the floyd nuthuggers have to say, pbf is full of crap, talks a lot but is afraid to face real challenges. PBF is a dancer in the ring, that’s why he looks good and slick, looks fast because he throws his feather blows with sound effects coming from his faster mouth. A good defensive fighter? Yeah, his shoulder rolls are only effective against slow punchers, castillo penetrated that defense a number of times. Then he uses his elbows when backed or hurt, or turn his back so the opponent gets an illegal punch violation. He’s a load of crap, and the nuthuggers don’t see that.. only see his “black american” ass.
floyd mayweather is the best boxer in the
world today
Floyd would beat any fighter in the wealterweight and lightweight division he has the fastest hands, quickest footwork and not to mention the best defense nobody stopping not pacman not cotto not washed up punk ass mosely not tall ass srry ass paul willams not cheating ass margartio not bitch ass andre berto he talks trash but he bcks up wit a win SO EVERYBODY STOP HATING ON PRETTY BOY FLOYD
Haha, “Paul Williams would spank ya ass Floyd.” Mayweather won’t go near the Punisher.
one more thing rugged said hopkins is a great champ that’ll fight anyone….That would be anyone but Chad Dawson..Dawson is Hopkins latest duck and before that it was glenn johnson…Hopkins has his moments as well
After looking at all these comments i must say a lot of you don’t know Boxing..Even the guy doing the interview on shade45 doesn’t know boxing..He knows the history and the greats of the past but far as knowing boxing and matching fighters up he doesn’t know ..Floyd fought de la hoya at a heavier weight than de la hoya fought pacqiau Floyd is a great boxer and i don’t see any of these guys beating him ..not even paul williams..floyd is too smart of a boxer and can adjust to anyone that’s is where all the others fall short..and i would like to know how andre berto is mentioned in the class of any of these fighters
(ravenous post#8)Berto???come on he should have lost his last fight against callazo…but anyway at this point pac man cotto mosley or williams will not beat floyd..williams is to far gone to even come back down to 147..I wonder what will be said after he beats cotto next year because cotto will win on the 14 and bob arrum will not pass nor will floyd on that mega fight…mosley should move up to 154 and fight williams but he’s ducking williams…mosley is a chump he sees a big pay day with mayweather win or loose but he wont fight williams because he will loose and get embarassed…so before anyone says floyd is ducking mosely do your homework and find out who mosely is ducking and who he has ducked
COMMON ARE YOU GUYS KIDDING ME COTTO, MARGARITO, AND MOSLEY DONT STAND A CHANCE. Both Cotto and Margarito should have lost their fights against Clotty, who is a good fighter but doesnt have the defense, speed, or stamina that Mayweather has in the ring. As far as Mosley goes he had his chance when Mayweather was calling him out where were all of you at, cuz yall wont calling Mosley a coward. Mosley turned down an opportunity to fight Mayweather so yall band wagon riders get off Mayweather B**** and learn a little about boxing.
Ra owned that chump! He had Floyd in all types of fustration probably more work than he has done in any fight lately (besides the IRS). Ra knows his boxing better than Floyd. Pacquio just called Floyd out for his fights being boring and Floyd only doing it for the money. Floyd has people calling him out and has Sugar Shane in his face on Camera on a national fight and he still ducks him. LOL! Ra thank you for educating us and I will suppport your effort because of this! Ra beats floyd without throwing a punch.
That was a very ignorant interview on both behaves. Floyd should’ve hung up on dude early in the conversation.
that will be the first and last for me to pay ppv for any mayweather fights,i was really very disappointed for his last fight against marquez becoz he keep running away.he should compete against usain bolt instead.
i love this interview,mr rugged man u r my idol even if i don’t know u.
Floyd PAWNED BIG time! Serves him right. Redeem by fighting the running is over. Floyd would beat Carl Lewis anytime on the marathon LMAO!
floyd got owned!!!!
Floyd MAYWEATHER jr! man! you’re now a joke
you are afraid of the following
1. shane mosley
2. paul williams
3. antonio margarito
4. miguel cotto
5. manny pacquiao
6. andre berto
but nothing scares him most than the biggest (3) letters
“IRS” there ain’t no bigger font but yes sir! its the IRS!
Internal Revenue Service! debts baby! no money to pay them! if you won’t fight anyone of the big (6) that i have on my list i’m sure, IRS is gonna whoop your ass! again people! its IRS! that’s what scares him the most!
Floyd: “i ain’t afraid of sugar!, i ain’t afraid of nobody! nobody but the IRS…” >.<
owned!
haha floyd got owned bigtime
there is no greatness, when the boxer is only after the money, pacman is right!
Hahaha…I agree with RA big time.
This has got to be the best interview I’ve heard someone did on FM. Awesome job. HBO should hire you to do commentating and keep things real. People like FM needs a brother that can put his azz in check.
Floyd has the potential to be considered the best, we all know he has skill, but he just have to prove he’s the best. Beating Shane and Williams would be great to shut all of us up. But he wont haha
i love r.a.
oh my god this is the best floyd mayweather jr. interview ever!!! finally somebody with balls to tell floyd how it really is and how how much of a bitch he really is!!! now that’s how you do an interview. rugged man keep doin what you doin dawg.
RUGGED YO D “MAN”
you shoudldv’e been president instead of Obama the communist!
Floyd talk to your hand u scared boxer!!! LOL
thank you man you hit nail right on the head
if floyd gay… fights pac… its gonna be his downfall… and margarito, mosley, cotto, williams, and even calderon (ha ha ha) can kick his ass..
poor floyd
rugged man = full of truth
gayweather = full of lies
now i’m calling you floyd….. fight me!!!!!!!
man!thats how you suppose to interview floyd, we need more like that! im a big fan of floyd but i still doubt it coz he hasnt fought great fighters out there he only fought fighters he know he can beat.
Finally…I hope this gets to Floyd and actually start fighting again. None of this WWE and fighting midgets crap.
Yo Rugged Man! You da man brudda!!! Hell, we don’t need to see little floyd fight da best, he just did and got TFKO’d by da Rugged Man!!!
That was a dope Interview RA Rugged Man. Put Floyd in his place. That was the best Floyd interview ever. Fight the best to be the best.
HEEEEEYYYY! HBO. TAKE A LESSON FROM RUGGED MAN! THIS GUY IS THE BOMB WHEN IT COMES TO BOXING.
WHY ISN’T RUGGED MAN A GUEST HOST ON HBO’S BOXING???? THE GUY IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND DON’T HOLD ANY PUNCHES, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT BOXING FANS HAS BEEN WAITING FOR.
MAN, I CAN’T STOP LAUGHING! I’M GOING TO BE LINKING EVERYTHING I CAN FIND TO THIS INTERVIEW.
LMAO!!!! RuggedMan, you’re now my favorite person on the PLANET!
FINALLY, SOMEONE WHO KNOWS BOXING PLASTER FLOYD’S ASS WHERE IT BELONGS..LMAO!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU.
RUGGED MAN FOR PRESIDENT!
You don’t know how long I’ve been waiting for someone to tell the whole world about how Floyd ducks and avoid fighters.
FUCKING HILLARIOUS, LMAO BIG TIME!!!!
*
wow! that turned me into a rugged man fan despite knowing him only for the first time in this interview.
to u gayweather, your not d best? i am! u know y? coz i said so! i’m just following your footsteps in telling everybody what i want without putting substance into my words..
haha!
Holy shit!!! That was the best Floyd interview I heard. Rugged Man didn’t allow himself get bullied by Floyd’s bullshit responses the way Brian Kenny did! To top it all, his own fellow “Brothers” don’t even buy his own shit!
Wow … RA should take part as commentator on HBO … He knows Boxing alot and freely says all his thoughts … I hope Mayweather could prove them wrong … or maybe right … Manny Pacquiao is also right in his opinion … He fights for Money and not for the Boxing fans … I hate to hear Floyd says Boxing is dead, but this is where he earned his name … I hope part of his money will go to his own character education … that’s all he needs …
Any of the links does not work. The youtube video does not work either.
after the interview, his name was changed to Flawed Faintweather! ahhihihihi!!! that’s why he is avoiding to have a match with Mosley, Cotto, Margarito, Pacquiao or Williams, because it’s a big possibility that his 0 loss will be gone forever! if he’ll not find any li’l boxers or washed-up grandpops that he can bully as his next match, he’ll surely retire again and use these words “I’ve nothin more to prove”. just wait and see guys.
PBF got owned BIGTIME!
HAHA holy SHIT!!!!…you guys nailed it to his head….I wanna see him fight fighters as big or bigger than him. I think the best fighter right now is Paul Williams….Floydds 0 loss doesnt count at all if he does not fight the best in the division…I guess Sugar Shane is smilin right now…he knows ….Mayweather might take the bait haha.I like the Willie Pep being compared to Little floyd hahaha and the Danish boxer 49 and 0 ….almost pissed hearing this …keep up the good work guys!!!
Nice interview keeping it real.
great conversations…. love your show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ivan calderon wants a piece of Mayweather. I say, Mayweather has all the luck in the world….
guess what? guess what? guess what? Floyd sounded like a spanked motha fucka. Pac’s gonna eat floyd’s big ego. Ali is great, robinson is great, pacquaio is great but floyd? guess what? guess what? He is ok, but great? ask my dog.
guess what? guess what? floyd sounded like a spanked kid.
Floyd jr got owned by the Rugged Man!!!
Shame on you, gayweather…
shit
..sounded like poor Floyd was in tears…lol
hahaha! the way maythweather talk, he just shit in his pants after the interview! coz he knows he’s not the greatest! he’s the shittest boxer of all time! pret!
Check this out…

Ha,ha! Great interview The Rugged Man, you owned PBF, big time! Way to go!

hey how could you say that i’m ducking anyone. Just to be Clear here’s my HITLIST:
I’m planning to fight Calderon next and he’s the best flyweight out there, after that, Brian Viloria’s then daniel ponce de leon, rafael marquez, israel vasquez, lastly juanma lopez.
Im the BEST, and I fight only the Best
pac vs floyd….in 2010 LET GET IT ON……
HAHA this is tha shit!!!!!!!Everythin you said was the truth!!
FLOYD JR IS A LOUD MOUTH MOTHERFUCKER WHO IS SCARED TO FIGHT FIGHTERS HIS OWN SIZE AND CALLS HIMSELF THE BEST P4P! ID LOVE TO SEE JR GET HIS ASS SPANKED BY SUGAR SHANE BIGIME!!!
Pacquiao is the GREATEST FIGHTER!!
EXCUSE ME???? “Boxing is dead without Floyd Mayweather” come on… every boxing fan knows who is the boxing money-making-machine right now. and its not you.
Jr. got owned.. bigtime! LOL.. Way to go Rugged MAn. Jr’s clearly afraid to face the other top and big WW.. and the way Margarito’s granite chin got crushed by Mosley. I dont see Mayweather fighting Shane anytime soon.
This is one historical interview in boxing something that every boxing fan should listen to.
down goes floyed
FLOYD = WRONG/INCORRECT/ERRONEOUS
YOU GUYS ARE ALL HATERS. MAN. DON’T YOU GET IT? FLOYD IS THE #1 SHIT BOXER IN THE MYTHICAL SUCK LIST. FLOYD JUST TOTALLY SUCK. HE’S PLAIN WRONG. HE JUST SUCKS.
MAN.
HE WOULD BE LICKING BOTH PACQUIAO and COTTO’s BALLS ANYTIME.
Whew! that was fuckin’ best interview!! The rugged man whooped Mayweather’s ass!!! hahahahahaha.
Damn!!! luv that evil laugh everytime Floyd makes some funny remarks about himself…LOL
that was the best. shane is a better fighter than floyd.
Jr got his big mouth shoved into his arse…….got owned totally.,…….
Floyd just learned what’s what.
wahahah! OWNED MAN! OWNED!!
too short for 10 minutes! i want more!
i want more reality facing conversation to floyd!
floyd is a crappy fighter…. let him go agaisnt cotto so he can get his ass kicked ….. floyd is to much hype, he is over rated. he a punk ….. if you the best floyd fight cotto fight cotto man see what real competition
TOO MANY HATERS MAYWEATHER PURE GREATNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Floyd is full of SHIT.
Anybody else catch Floyd say that he beat the P4P #2 in Marquez…before he was saying that he was number 1. This is actually progress.
That dude said he dont want to call money may a bitch on the phone but he wouldnt do it to his face either.
