According to someone “in the know” inside Floyd Mayweather’s camp, Mayweather is now balking at the thought of putting his neck on the line in the ring against Mosley for financial reasons. Let’s hope this latest rumor is not true, because Floyd can’t afford another debacle like the Pacqiao fight collapse, when many saw him as deliberately placing obstacles in the way of the bout happening. Mayweather v. Mosley tickets could be among 2010’s hottest boxing tickets, as Mosley is no pushover and this will be a fight, however Maweather may look at it.
“Floyd did the math and Floyd is saying, ‘Why should I take a potentially difficult bout against Mosley for $10 million or less when I get $40 million or more to fight Manny Pacquiao, and that could be an easier fight to win?,” this mysterious in-the-know person has said. Question is, is it true?
The answer – no way! Mayweather v Mosley is a dead certainty and Mayweather Mosley tickets are going to be one of the biggest selling boxing tickets this year. The gossipers are too busy contradicting themselves to give Money May and his fists time to talk. Fact is, Mayweather tickets are still the top draw in world boxing and Mosley represents a huge challenge in what is the most electric boxing scene in decades. With a host of other up-and-comers, like Amir Khan and Cesar Seda Jr., 2010 boxing will be as good as last year, and that is talking!
