Mayweather, Marquez Clinching Already As Lying Liars Lie

Biggest Liars, Lies Told In Boxing Today:

1. Pound or Pound King is Floyd Mayweather Jr. Lightning bolt of truth must have hit Mayweather on his trans Atlantic flight to London because, on that side of the pond, PBF gave it up, saying “it’s just an opinion” as to who the P4P King of the ring really is. Smart move by Li’l Floyd because haughty arrogance doesn’t play as well in the UK as it does in the USA.


2. Oscar De La Hoya, serial liar, pumps up Juan Manuel Marquez by saying that “you can beat Mayweather with the jab." Oh, really, O’Reilly? You are bigger and stronger than tiny Marquez but you couldn’t do it. Flip the script to July 19 when Oscar will be oohing and aahing over how great Floyd is and how he will slap Manny Pacquiao around.


3. Big Gary Shaw badmouths light heavyweight contender Tavoris Cloud as not a suitable challenger to Bad Chad Dawson. Pardon me, Big Gar, but what great fighters did Dawson beat to get to the top of the queque for his title shot? Just because HBO won’t pay for Dawson-Cloud does not mean that Cloud did not do what he was supposed to become the top IBF contender. Truth and Shaw are seldom in the same zip code.


4. Roger Mayweather. Fortunately, because there were no English language subtitles for his trip to England, the British media could not understand a word Snaglepuss said while there.


5. Mayweather Mafia. What kind of a Godfather lets Ricky Hatton last for 10 rounds? It took Pacquiao’s lightning and thunder assault to turn Hitman into Hurtman.

6. Yes, it is true that comic book Archie Andrews shook up Riverdale by choosing to marry sultry hottie Veronica over good girl Betty but the only change in the character of Archie pal Jughead is that Floyd Mayweather wants to play him in the forthcoming movie. Btw, the over/under on Veronica cheating with Reggie is four days.

7. Hayden Kho. Let's leave him in the garbage can from whence he came. But may I ask this question. When Senator Ramon Revilla labeled the plastic sturgeon "a pervert of the highest kind" was that praise or an insult? And, did this guy go to the Horndog School of Medicine?
