Is that King Arthur doing step aerobics??? Definitely a WTF moment.

Yup that's Abe doing aerobics from the 7th episode of fight camp 360.

I posted clips here if you missed it.

It's for his footwork LOL! For some reason I think Froch is gonna upset him come fight time.

I agree. I may change my mind, but at this point I like Froch. I think he'll be much more active. Abraham will give away the first 1/3 of the fight like he always does. Froch is a tough SOB and will make it to the final bell with a close victory.

I believe Froch has the ability to win a decision, my problem is I am not sure he's going to get a fair shake in Monaco, even though it's suppose to be a "neutral" venue.

Funny how he didn't have a thing to say and avoided questions when the contract to fight Pac was in front of him....it's always after Pac moves on to another fight that Fraud opens his mouth.

Kind of like Haye with the Klitschko brothers, except Haye is not even close to the stature of the Klitschkos or Flod.

I've never fully believed the Floyd is creating a character to sell fights...I don't think he is that bright. I think he is just giving glimpses into his true vile personality.

I agree completely with this. Its crazy to me how people are labeling floyd a racist just for making dumb comments. They are offensive but racist i dont think so.

BTW Ali, I had to make the jump. I wanted to talk about boxing somewhere and had no outlet

That's cool, we're glad to have you aboard

Insulting someone's skin color isn't racism? The way he used "yellow" and "midget" were deliberately intended to insult his ethnicity.


Froch takes a lot of shots with his style. I think he gets stopped late.

Apparently, Abraham loves this step aerobics stuff.

Depends on if he really meant it or not, i think he just wants attention. The rant might have been racist but i dont think Floyd is a racist. Neither do i think BHOP is racist for saying "i aint goin to loose to no white boy" and im white. Some people just get offended to easily.

LMAO Abraham is fast becoming a hysterical character.

I believe what he said was rather racist
I'm on vacation for about a year, about a year," Mayweather said. "As soon as we come off vacation, we're going to cook that little yellow chump. We ain't worried about that. So they ain't gotta worry about me fighting the midget. Once I kick the midget ass, I don't want you all to jump on my d---. So you all better get on the bandwagon now. ... Once I stomp the midget, I'll make that mother f----- make me a sushi roll and cook me some rice."

I'm no expert but isn't "yellow" a slur that is used against Asians?

If Pac made the same video and called Mayweather the N word, then I don't think anyone would say, it depends on whether he meant it.

Floyd has been race baiting people for years. I don't think it's necessarily racism, just the garbage that spews from an arrogant, ignorant fool.

If manny said that i would say the same thing. However I agree the backlash would be much worse. Al Sharpton would be calling for his head.

...this post by canvas says much..especialy the last few sentences...floyd appologized because there probably was a huge unexpected backlash on his comments on his twitter thing or public forums and the boxing community and money people maybe told him this is going to far its unexceptable..a strong refernce maybe that money can be made without you..floyd is not a nice guy nor is his father and uncle...sportscasters etc have been fired for saying far less harmfull things..on haye i agree he absolutely does not stoop to the low level floyd does but he equals floyd in dogging ducking or backing out of fights then tries to make it sound like its the other guys fault..there both on a comfortable restfull vacation..i hope they stay there for a dozen years.

Floyd Joy Mayweather Jr. vs. George Takei already, angry gay Asian vs. angry racist/homophobic black guy

make the match lol..i can see the press conference and weight in now.
