3 Rivers Rundown 6.25.15: Finish With A Knockout! #FloydMayweather

By @Kratoslives

Floyd Mayweather AKA Money May, do me a favor…… finish a fight with a knock out!

Yes, Floyd finish with a knock out! You can't finish your career by fighting Andre Berto or Karim Mayfield, you know that's not what you want to do. So please, quit. I know you don't want to fight Amir Kahn, his chin is more fragile than your hands. So who are you really trying to fight September 12th? Gennady Gennadyevich Golovkin (GGG), Shawn Porter or Timothy Bradley? Just don't give me Berto, he is way too small and even though Mayfield is solid, he has no name recognition.

So if you are open to fan suggestions, I personally would love to see you and GGG. He is everything you like in a opponent.

Now excuse me while I use Golden State Warriors’ forward Draymond Green’s drunk interview to prove my point:

Is he slow a foot compared to you?
DG: YEAH!
Is he weak on defense?
DG: YEAH!
Is his boxing skills extremely weak compared to yours?
DG: YEAH!
Has he fought opponents as good as the ones on your resume?
DG: UH NO!
Will he ever be considered one of the greatest of all time?
DG: UH NO!

Thanks for your help, Draymond. Now go sober up.

Now that we got that out of the way, GGG only has one thing over you, knock out power in both hands. Which equates to nothing considering we both know he'll never land a solid punch on you. He will bring the one thing you like the must to the party. The “good guy” role to your villain and we know you love that. He'll have public support and media backing. Which then leads to public bashing of you and your brand, TMT. Let's face it, we know you love making the public and media eat “Sugar Honey Ice Tea”.

You know you love that Madagascar reference, don't hate hahaha.

Back to the point, Floyd. If you take this fight, it will make your legacy ranking Titanium. Because we know no one out there has a solid chance against him other than Andre Ward. Besides I know you want no parts of Ward anyway, because Ward is way too big for you, Floyd. So please do us hard core Money May fans a favor. Dismantle him on September 12th and retire as POUND FOR POUND the greatest boxer who ever did it……. until Lil Money May comes along.

Leadoff with Lee 8.19.14

-Don't let the 24-23 score fool you, the game wasn't really that close. Neither Brian Hoyer or Johnny Manziel proved they deserved to be the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns. It seemed as if the rotating quarterbacks couldn't get into a rythem or build chemistry with the wideouts. Throws were high, low, behind and even hit their receivers hands for incomplete passes. Penalties also killed the Browns which I'm sure Mike Pettine isn't happy about. It also seemed as if Manziel didn't recognize blitz formations. He needs to change the protection, call an audible and/or know who is his "HOT" receiver. The defense looked decent with a great goal line stand. Joe Haden had a nice 37 yard interception as well. The Browns will have a short week as they play Saturday at home, against the St. Louis Rams.

-Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller re-injured his surgically repaired right shoulder in practice yesterday. His availability for the upcoming season is in question. Miller will have an MRI today to see if any additional damage was done to his shoulder or if it simply needs more rest. J.T. Barrett seems to be the front runner for Braxton's spot if he's unavailable for the Buckeyes first game August 30 at Navy. Cleveland Glenville's own Cardale Jones will be his backup. Both are freshman and participated in OSU's spring practice. It is unknown if Miller will apply for a medical redshirt if he is unavailable this season.

-The preseason AP poll was released and Ohio State ranked 5th. In the coaches poll released a few weeks ago, they ranked 6th.

-Four Notre Dame football players have been suspended and are being investigated for academic fraud. Notre Dame said in a statement that receiver DaVaris Daniels, defensive back KeiVarae Russell, defensive lineman Ishaq Williams and linebacker Kendall Moore submitted papers and homework written for them by others. No timetable has been placed on when the investigation will be complete.

-Shawn Marion officially agreed to the veterans league minimum ($1.4 million) to play with LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Marion played for the Dallas Mavericks last season, averaging 10.4ppg and 6.5 rebounds. The 6'7", 36-year-old Marion will come off the bench to play small and power forward, making him very versitile.

-Kell Brook defeated Akron native "Showtime" Shawn Porter to become the new IBF Welterweight Champion. Brook won 117-111 and 116-112 on the American judge score cards and 114-114 and 115-113 on the English judge score cards. Porter expects a rematch, saying "Anytime, any place, I'm gonna take him".
