But, really, what is $600,000 when Mayweather stands to earn eight figures even after paying Marquez and paying off more than $5 million in IRS debts, especially when all indications are that the pay-per-view is going through the roof and likely will crack 1 million buys? Mayweather also disregarded the Nevada State Athletic Commission’s request for a bout contract (which lists the weight) to be filed in a timely fashion. Instead he waited until just minutes before the weigh-in.” “Now, did two pounds make the difference between Mayweather winning and losing? Probably not. But that still doesn’t make it right for him to run roughshod over everyone, and it sure wasn’t right for everyone around him to facilitate the FRAUD. MAYWEATHER should have been a professional about it and made the weight.” a consumer I feel as though I have been cheated by Mayweather and find it odd how various parties swept this under the rug for him while he went laughing to the bank. Very much like Rafael I doubt the 2 lbs would have made any difference in the outcome of the fight, but simply put Mayweather showed an utter lack of respect for JMM and all the boxing fans who paid their hard earned money to watch this fight. I know I will never get my money back, but I for sure won’t be paying anything to watch Mayweather vs Mosley either and I encourage others to boycott the fight to send a message to Floyd.One final note…If Mayweather fans need to feel the urge to bring up Pacquiao and the drug tests I would say this… it is 100% and completelyirrelevant to this article. Why? I am talking about Mayweather and how he committed fraud in regards to the 1 million PPV buys from the fight with JMM. Mayweather made an actual profit and a sizable one while he commited fraud. So unless you want to prove you are a street teamer, fanboy or totally illogical keep it to the subject of the article… .
