Heavyweight Championship Post Fight Press Conference Brawl (Video)
Like most people I haven’t been that excited about Heavyweight Boxing in years man…It just hasn’t been that interesting or exciting to me & the increasing popularity of Mixed Martial Arts doesn’t help either. British Boxer Dereck Chisora lost to the big Russian Vitali Klitschko over the weekend & during the post fight press conference Chisora got into a shouting match with former WBA Heavyweight champion & South London product David Haye that escalated into a crazy brawl & concluded with verbal threats of shootings & leaving individuals cut by shards of glass. I spotted this video over at Terez Owens & I’d have to agree that lately these press conference antics are more exciting than the fights these days. Even the Pre-fight press conference was filled with controversy when Klitschko was spat on by Chisora….

Floyd Mayweather Argues with Sirius XM radio host Rude Jude (Audio)
This is straight hilarious!!! Personally I don’t believe Floyd Mayweather is afraid of anyone, but you do have to be smart when fighting a potential opponent who is alleged to be using performance enhancing drugs. If I was Floyd Mayweather I’d make every fighter I was poised to compete against take a drug test like I’ve always done. Why should Manny Pacquiao be any different? It’s called doing your due dilligence & this is more about business than it is about Floyd Mayweather being afraid of fighting anyone. The Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao debates are constantly being argued in the barbershops, in the gyms, at the office watercooler, & even on sports & hip hop radio shows. Floyd Mayweather called in to Sirius XM’s Shade 45 channel to speak with Rude Jude about his disparaging comments about him. This heated exchange on the radio between Floyd Mayweather & Rude Jude is hilarious though….

Money Mayweather shows up on Conan O’Brien Show to talk about his upcoming fight with Victor Ortiz this Saturday night. Conan also asks him the question that everyone has been asking about Manny Pacquiao. Despite some naysayers, I don’t believe Mayweather is running from Pacquiao. All Manny has to do is agree to the random drug testing…simple as that.
