Danny Granger’s run as the No. 1 Ugly American was short lived thanks to Floyd Mayweather Jr. dropping racist and homophobic bombs on and around Manny Pacquiao via UStream early this morning. The 41-0 Mayweather has used UStream to connect with his fans the last couple of nights, even calling a lucky few that posted their phone numbers on Twitter. That’s what started his rant this morning. The NSFW video below has the highlights. You can check out the entire show here. Read the full story

Earlier today You Been Blinded brought you news of a vacationing Floyd Mayweather Jr. betting on cockfights in Puerto Rico. Cockfighting is illegal in the US and a felony in 39 states. It’s the exact opposite in Puerto Rico where chicken fights are regulated and the sport is considered a cultural right of Puerto Ricans.
I’ve condensed the videos of Floyd at the cockfights into one short file that starts with Floyd placing a bet on the fight and ends with him watching the action. I’m surprised Roy Jones Jr. and Pedro Martinez weren’t there with him. Read the full story

Many are accusing Floyd Mayweather Jr. of being scared to fight Manny Pacquiao. Whether he doesn’t want to risk tarnishing his 41-0 record or truly is fearful of Manny isn’t known. What’s clear is that Floyd isn’t preparing to fight Pacquiao, or anybody in the near future. Mayweather is currently on vacation in Puerto Rico, taking in the surf and sand, looking for an open casino and placing bets on cockfights. Money May recently came in at No. 3 on Sports Illustrated’s list of 50 highest earning American-athletes of 2010. I didn’t realize cockfighting paid that well.
Mayweather did what anybody does when they’re on vacation and had a member of his group video parts of their trip. Including their visit to Club Gallistico de Puerto Rico. With the way Mayweather likes to gamble he’s gonna end up changing his nickname from “Money May” to “Floyd Four Fingers.” Read the full story

Brock Lesnar, Randy Couture, Chuck Liddell or Kimbo Slice.
James Toney, the former Ring Magazine boxer of the year, has requested some big names for his first Mixed Martial Arts fight. But Toney might want to familiarize himself with a slightly more obscure name before entering the octagon: Art Jimmerson.
Jimmerson was the first professional boxer to moonlight with the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Having compiled a mixed record moving between weight classes, Jimmerson was brought in to round out the motley crew of fighters for UFC 1. He took his place alongside kickboxers, shootfighters and a sumo wrestler. Read the full story

Arthur Abraham fought Andre Dirrell in the second round of the Super Six World Boxing Classic and got his ass handed to him for the majority of the fight before being disqualified. Dirrell dropped Abraham in the fourth round and appeared to be five minutes away from a victory when Abraham got dirty. Dirrell slipped to the ground after an 11th round exchange but Abraham didn’t stop fighting. He clocked Dirrell as he sat on the canvas and knocked him out.
Abraham was immediately disqualified for an intentional foul. After the fight he said Dirrell was a good actor. The video shows Dirrell wasn’t playing around. He didn’t know/understand what had happened and thought he lost the fight. Abraham should be suspended for one of the cheapest shots you’ll ever see. Read the full story

Floyd Mayweather loves attention almost as much as he loves money. Don’t believe me? Watch this video of Mayweather after a recent appearance in LA and your mind will change. Money May seems like he’s on a natural high as his fans beg for autographs and follow him with cameras. And it sounds like the recession is touching Floyd’s pockets if he’s running around yelling “I need me a Toyota.” Read the full story

Ringside Report says Mike Tyson and Don King are looking to inject some life into the once dominant Heavyweight division later this year. Read the full story
