Bouncing back after Forrest


On February 8, 2003, Mosley's bout with former IBF world Light Middleweight champion Raúl Márquez ended in a no contest when Mosley accidentally head butted Marquez twice in round three, which caused two very bad cuts above the eyes of Marquez. He and De La Hoya faced each other for the second time on September 13, this time with De La Hoya's WBC and WBA Light Middleweight belts on the line. Mosley defeated De La Hoya by a close 12 round unanimous decision, and joined the exclusive group of world boxing champions that have reigned in three or more divisions. Mosley testified in 2003 that he injected himself with the notorious doping agent EPO as he prepared for his Light Middleweight title fight against Oscar De La Hoya, according to grand jury transcripts and doping calendars.

Accuses Manny Pacquiao of performance enhancing drug use


A proposed March, 2010 fight between Mayweather, Sr.'s son Mayweather, Jr. and Manny Pacquiao fell by the wayside in January, 2010 when the camps representing both men could not agree on the timeline for Olympic style drug testing for the fight. Though the fight was set to take place in Las Vegas, Nevada, where the State Athletic Commission does not require blood draws for boxing matches, a more stringent drug test was sought out by Mayweather, Jr.'s representatives due to their belief that Pacquiao might be under the influence of performance enhancing drugs despite the fact that Pacquiao never failed any drug test. 

Mayweather, Sr, for several months prior to the negotiation for a fight between his son and Pacquiao had been very vocal about his theory that Manny Pacquiao's impressive displays as a welterweight were aided by performance enhancing drugs

Floyd Mayweather - A new son


Floyd Mayweather, Sr. found out in 2007 that he is the father of another boxer, Justin Jones, a promising 19-year-old light middleweight amateur boxer in Grand Rapids. Jones contacted Floyd Sr. because of numerous comments over the years about his resemblance to the Mayweather family. He then asked Mayweather if he would take a DNA test. The DNA test proved positive. Mayweather Sr. and Justin Jones plan to start training together soon. Floyd Mayweather vs Shane Mosley Tickets & Sell Floyd Mayweather vs Shane Mosley Tickets through YourTicketMarket.com.

Floyd Mayweather - Jail, Trainer



Floyd Sr. was convicted for drug trafficking as part of a ring smuggling cocaine in boxes of laundry detergent. He was convicted in 1993 and served a five-year term for his involvement. As a trainer, Mayweather preaches defense and a stiff jab. He teaches many of his boxers a defensive technique known as the shoulder roll, in which the fighter uses his front shoulder to deflect blows and limit their impact. He has on many occasions, including HBO's Mayweather-Hatton 24/7, claimed to be "Floyd Joy Mayweather Sr., 'The Greatest Trainer of All Time'". He is the former trainer of top light heavyweight Chad Dawson, former 2 division champion Joan Guzmán and women's champion Laila Ali. He is most well-known for his stint as Oscar De La Hoya's trainer from 2001 through 2006. He said he would train De La Hoya for his May 5, 2007, fight against his son, but demanded a $2 million fee to do so. After considerable deliberation, De La Hoya opted not to hire Mayweather Sr. and announced on Jan. 30, 2007, he would use Freddie Roachinstead. The snub briefly reunited father and son, Floyd Sr. turning up at the Mayweather Jr. boxing gym, while Roger (who had been banned from being in the corner at boxing matches for 12 months for starting a riot during Floyd Jr's bout against Zab Judah last year when he attacked Judah) served six months in jail for a domestic assault. But when Roger was released, the situation became awkward because of the brothers’ rivalry. Floyd Jr. chose Roger as his trainer and Floyd Sr. left again, claiming that the father-son relationship was "back to square one" for choosing Roger over his own father again. Recently, Floyd Sr. agreed to once again train De La Hoya in anticipation for Mayweather Jr.- De La Hoya II presented by Golden Boy Promotions. However due to Mayweather Jr's retirement this bout was cancelled. Mayweather Sr trained Manchester's Ricky Hatton for seven weeks prior to his bout against Paulie Malignaggi on 22 November 2008 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Hatton retained his IBO light-welterweight title with a technical knockout in the 11th round. However, Hatton lost only his second fight under Mayweather Sr with a second round knockout by Manny Pacquiao The famous feud between Floyd Mayweather Sr. and Floyd Mayweather Jr. has finally come to an end as father and son made up before Jr's return to the ring after a 21- month lay off. However Sr. is not the trainer of Jr., it is his uncle Roger Mayweather who still trains Jr. On the popular HBO 24/7 program Floyd Mayweather Sr. was quoted as saying 'I don't need to train my son, I need a relationship with my son."

Floyd Mayweather - Family rift


Floyd Sr. was chosen as the 1998 Manager of the Year by the Boxing Writers Association of America  but the increasingly brash Mayweather Jr. was tired of being told what to do. The partnership between father and son stuck together until Floyd Jr won his first world belt, the WBC super-featherweight title, before son dismissed father in a bitter falling-out. They did not speak for seven years. The family divide was underlined when Floyd Jr turned to his uncle, Roger in 2000, to train him and the pair became a success.

Mosley is the current holder of the title while Mayweather brings boxing's longest unbeaten record of 41 fights to the ring for a bout that many are expecting to be the toughest of his career. Some experts, including Sky Sports' Glenn McCrory, expect the champion to be too big and too fast, but the man who now calls himself Money says his brains will overcome the brawn of his rival. "They all talk about Shane's strength, but in boxing you need all over strength from head to toe," he said. "If we were in a weightlifting match then strength might have something to do it with it. But we are in a boxing match and I am the best boxer in the sport. "If you compare our records you have to ask yourself which fighter is better and smarter. That would have to be me. This is boxing, the beautiful sport called boxing. "Shane is a solid welterweight with great accomplishments, but I have been fighting these kinds of fighters my whole career without much appreciation. No one gives me credit for who I have fought during my career. "From early to now, look at the opponents I have faced and see where they were when they faced me in the ring." "He lost to Winky Wright from a one-handed jab in his face all night long. Now he is facing someone sharp as a razor with two hands. He has been dropped and wobbled on numerous occasions. If he tries to bum rush me, he is going to get clipped. "No one has a chance to beat me. All of these fighters do the same interviews, talking about how they are going to beat me. Guess what? Same interviews, same results. It hasn't happened yet."

Floyd Mayweather’s big return to the ring to take on Shane Mosley for what many boxing observers expect to be a prep for a November bout with Manny Pacquiao. The Pacquiao vs Mayweather issue will likely continue to simmer for the next few months, but we may hear something about it after the fight if Mayweather pulls off the expected victory. If you’re looking at the fight outcome betting, you are going to be able to take advantage of the most likely selection here- Mayweather to win via decision or technical decision. It’s a short 4/7, but its much better than going over 11.5 rounds at 2/9. If the fight goes the distance, Mosley simply isn’t going to win. Currently, BET365 has Mayweather listed as the slim 2/9 favourite to take the fight by any means while Mosley is rewarding at a solid 3/1 price. Tellingly, the over/under on rounds is set at 11.5- which makes it more-or-less a bet on whether the fight goes the distance or not. The over 11.5 is a very short 2/7 while under 11.5 sits at a solid 5/2. Mayweather did not hesitate to say his frustration over this incident. He also claimed to have pushed Mosley. “Our Nose (to) touch,” said the boxer was nicknamed Pretty Boy that was launched from Sporting life. “I do not like anything but female. I do not mind the trash talk but he grabbed my hand. I said: ‘Do not put your hand to me.” My (then) push. ”
