Kings: Kobe Bryant: "I'm Going Out Like Floyd Mayweather"

[Thebesteva]

Mayweather is undefeated.

I'm not defending Kobe but I hate Mayweather. The guy never fights anyone special and he has the ability to beat everyone. It's like Lebron James playing the Knicks in the finals every year.

[DMC]

I just laugh heartily every time I see a dumb nig use the Finals loss argument. It's as if losing game 6 the Finals is worse than getting swept in the opening round.

Im not neccessarily talking about Manny. I think if he took the Sugar Ray route of trying to prove hes the in man and fought Margarito, Paul Williams, Manny, etc...I think he could have won and been the GOAT. Floyd just wants easy $... it more power to him hes a bagillionaire. But as far as myself, I actually trained at Wild Card (when I was younger) and met Manny many times. I just really like the guy, hes the nicest guy ever. He would wash your car for you if you asked.

I just think he deserved a 50-50 purse and it would have been the biggest fight in boxing history. Floyd robbed everyone of that.

^ based on what? Obviously you haven't followed Floyd's career...he's fought who's ever been in front of him and early on he brawled..as you get older you get more defensive it's natural...

but Manny is a cheater...he was blood doping and you know it....he refused to take the test on the grounds of supers ion...let any other athelete make such a superfluous claim and watch them get laughed out the building...the problem with boxing is what it's always been since Jack Johnson kicked the out of Jim Jefferies and his brother in what was billed the "fight to determine the superior race". America is looking for a great white hope and thought they found that in Manny...sure he's a nice guy but he's also a got dam fool for getting taken to the woodshed by Bob Arum the way that he has....

Fact is Manny can't draw what Floyd does he didn't deserve no where close to a 50 / 50 split....Floyd offered 50 million and no PPV and Arum talked him out of it...if Manny was so good why can't he draw that on his own...

get real man

get real man

please. He could easily fight Sergio Martinez. Floyd is not like Sugar Ray, he has no interest in proving hes the best. All time greats like Sugar, Marvin, Duran, and Hagler had a chip on their shoulder to prove they are the best. They were the real gangster rap era. Floyd is about making $ as easily as possible. Like I said, props to him for ting on everyones life with $50 million a fight, but hes not a compe ive guy,

Floyd is undefeated and basically s on every boxer that faced him, how much more compe ive do you want from him

back to my question...on what Merit does Manny deserve an even split?

[Koolaid_Man]

thanks my

[Clipper Nation]

Floyd Money: 45-0

Kirbs: 1-4

[Thebesteva]

back to my question...on what Merit does Manny deserve an even split?

Before his loss to Marquez, he was the major draw.

[CitizenDwayne]

he refused to take the test on the grounds of supers ion...let any other athelete make such a superfluous claim and watch them get laughed out the building

This. Mayweather's a total , but let's not make a saint out of Manny. Dude had his chance, but conveniently always had qualms with the purse and/or testing.

It's really a shame, though. Fight would be amazing.

As for Mayweather's opponents, sure, he doesn't always fight the top guys he should be fighting, but he's not messing around with bottom-dwellers like...oh, idk, Buster Mathis and "Hurricane" Mcneeley.

[RsxPiimp]

I mean,Manny is my guy but you gotta give credit where it's due. Didn't Mayweayher pulverized the same boxer that's been whoopin PacMan for years?

[lefty]

[DAF86]

So he's going out like a ducker?

"He can have the le" Floyd after it was anounced that Manny was his mandatory. Dude's not even trying to hide it anymore.

[Raven]

Kobe has 5 rings..there's no one in the league that can match his count therefore he's undefeated....just like 81 pts is greater than 100 in todays NBA

really? none? really?

[da_suns_fan]

If the dude had a single humble bone in his body he wouldnt be the most hated athlete on the planet.

Heaven forbid Kobe say something like "I felt pressure to justify my contract and I might have come back too early. Obviously Im not playing well right now but were short on players and Im trying to help where I can. Just want the fans to know how hard were working."

Instead we hear this how hes going to be like Mayweather and use technique etc to compensate for his lack of explosiveness and how his team wasnt "gangbusters" before he came back.

The guy is just such a tool.

[ambchang]

No surprises that Kobe is yet copying another person.

Nothing original ever comes out of him.

Floyd beat the out of fighters way better than the fighters you mentioned.

[Buddy Mignon]

Before his loss to Marquez, he was the major draw.

No he wasn't. He's never done the numbers Floyd has done. At best it should have been a 60/40 split. When they did agree to a 50/50 split Manny backed out due to the drug testing Floyd required.

Fair enough Manny is nice and would of got a nice ass whuppin if he faced Floyd ...and No, he did not deserve a 50-50 split 45-55 ...maybe. but that is being generous ...
