against biggest bob boxing fight fighters fights floyd giving happen happened involved past since together top wanting wants
(Mayweather is) too big of a fight not to happen, but obviously, it has to happen without Top Rank. Because I just feel that things that happened in the past with Top Rank, us not making fights together and Bob Arum not wanting to make fights with our fighters ... well, OK. If you don't want to make fights with our fighters, if I fight Floyd Jr., then you're not going to be involved. It's not giving him the satisfaction. It's like saying, 'OK, you're not going to be involved in the biggest fight in boxing since (my fight against Felix) Trinidad. If he wants to play that way, I'll play that way, too.

People at the party were laughing and having fun. And I missed my mother. I felt so lonely. I remember asking myself, 'Why isn't my mother here? Why are all these people around me?

Vargas is not as fast. But when he hits you, it feels very heavy. It's kind of thudding. Mosley, he's got such fast hands. When he hits you, there's such a snap because they are quick, crisp shots that really sting. They both punch well, but they're just different.
