[Beyond the Bets]

Yeah, turns out: Mayweather didn't place that $1.8 million bet on the Clippers in Game 1 after all.

No, seriously, nice call IBN.

Josh Slagter is a tool, anyways; Wrote a story claiming this was true just using IB's tweet on Monday. There was a time when 'writers' would find facts before writing stories. Of course, that was when us 'readers' wanted the truth instead of wanting the answer yesterday.

But I thought Bob and Mayweather were close? And Bob was really connected with everybody... How did he get this wrong?!

[JayPrimetown]

Another popcorn worthy thread... let's see what Bob has to say about this one.

He doesn't have time to respond.
Probably making a play on game 7 of the Penguins/Flyers series.

Oh, wait..

He responded on Twitter with something to the effect of "Floyd would never admit he actually made a bet after the jail thing."

Break a story with no sources.
Story comes out days later that it did not happen.
Save face by saying of course the guy would not admit to it in public.

What does jail have to do with him making legal wagers in Vegas?

[spanishredeye]

He won't come back until he actually hits a prediction.

I was wondering the same thing but then I stopped because I realized I was trying to apply logic to a statement made by "Paroled Robert"

[Wiseguy]

Paroled Robert lmao

[KnicksFan1221]

So is Randizzle lying that he's getting commission on the pick as he's Floyd's personal handicapper.

[RyanParrill]

This quote from Mayweather, in an unrelated article, was too good not to pass on:

"I know how it is to have a broken rib the rest of your life. I know how it is to piss blood. You all don't know nothing about this."

[SkyBlues42]

When did he say that?! -- the Randizzle comment.

I think he deleted it. It was there though. I read it.
