(AllHipHop News) Floyd Mayweather and Sugar Shane Mosley will hit the Nasdaq tomorrow (March 2), where the two rivals will unite to ring the opening bell to promote their May 1st boxing match in Las Vegas.
The event is part of a tour the two boxers are on to promote their highly anticipated bout two months from today.
Mayweather recently checked in with AllHipHop.com, where he discussed a number of topics, ranging from the failed match with Manny Pacquiao, his decision to take on Sugar Shane Mosley and his former Hip-Hop rival with rapper Rick Ross.
Mayweather trashed Manny Pacquiao during the interview for not taking a “$25 million dollar” random blood, urine and drug tests.
“I felt that in today’s time, there’s too much cheating going on in all sports, I’m’ not just making a stand in boxing, I’m making a stand in all sports. It’s about being fair,” Mayweather told AllHipHop.com. “We got athletes that live in our own country that lie to American citizens about taking certain enhancing drugs. Manny is not even from this country, he doesn’t’ in this country. Imagine what he would tell the American people.”
Mosley (46-5, 39 KOs) , who has one seven out of his last eight fights, had no issues with taking the tests and has agreed to the Olympic-style random blood testing.
During the interview with AllHipHop.com, Mayweather shot down Mosley’s comments that he was “stronger, faster and better” than Mayweather.
“I wouldn’t have chose the fight with Shane if it wasn’t a good fight, a solid fight. But I’m an A-lister, and Shane Mosely is a C-lister,” Mayweather told AllHipHop.com. “But when you involve yourself with the Mayweather brand, it takes you to the next level in the sport of boxing."
Outside of the ring, Mayweather and rapper Rick Ross squashed their growing feud, although the boxing champion took issue with Sean “Diddy” Combs’ proclamation that rapper Rick Ross was the next “Biggie Smalls.”
Ross, who is featured on Diddy and Dirty Money’s remix to “Angels,” has had a well documented feud with rapper 50 Cent, in addition to Floyd Mayweather.
The pair buried the hatchet last month, after a New Year’s celebration almost turned violent when their respective entourages clashed at a party hosted by Diddy at new nightclub, Vanity inside of the Hard Rock Hotel.
“I hear lately that Puff Daddy has been saying Rick Ross is the next Biggie Smalls. That’s not true," Mayweather told AllHipHop.com. "He’s a good artist but he’s not the next Biggie Smalls. There’s only one Biggie and there’s only one Pac. The thing is this, rap is story telling. It’s not true. If somebody had those many guns, done that much killing or sold that much work or hustled that much, or course they would be in prison."
Mayweather admitted that Rick Ross is a good Hip-Hop artist, but stated that he has no plans on supporting the rapper's releases.
"A lot of times people think I’ma downplay somebody because we may not get along or we may not see eye to eye," Mayweather told AllHipHop.com. "He’s had songs that’s been cool. I’m not saying that I’m a fan or I’m gonna go buy his album. The only thing I can say is Floyd Mayweather is in his lane. I stay in my lane and I want everyone else to stay in their lane. Period.”
Mayweather and Mosley will hit the road to promote their May 1st boxing match starting tomorrow (March 2nd) in New York.
Dates are listed below:
Tuesday, March 2: Nokia Theatre, Times Square, New York City
Wednesday, March 3: The Lincoln Theatre, Washington, D.C.

Ne-Yo ran into a little bit of trouble over the weekend in Oslo, Norway.
According to various reports, Ne-Yo and his crew were having dinner at Emil & Samuel following a concert. The group was having a good time drinking and partying when a patron at the restaurant grabbed a female in the entourage.
That's when things spiraled out of control. A bus boy somehow also became involved after walking over. He was allegedly knocked unconscious after being punched in the face by an unknown person in the crew.
Ne-Yo did not throw a punch or get involved in the scuffle.
After leaving the restaurant, Ne-yo and his associates were detained and searched by Oslo police.
"All in all this is an unfortunate situation involving the artist, Emil & Samuel and the concert management," said the owner of Emil & Samuel.
Expect a lawsuit or two to pop up in the near future.

Now that Lil Wayne's teeth are in order, the superstar MC is expected once again to turn himself in to authorities, this time on Tuesday, to finally begin his one-year prison sentence stemming from a 2007 arrest on gun charges.
The rapper will be formally sentenced in a Manhattan courtroom by Judge Charles H. Solomon after last month's postponement due to Wayne's dental surgery. Wayne is scheduled to enter his plea, and authorities will then whisk him away for processing at New York's Rikers Island.

Nino Brown: The Road to Rikers, Part 1
"Three days, y'all — let's party!" Lil Wayne said on Saturday (February 27). Now that his dental surgery is done, Weezy is expected to begin serving his year in jail on weapons charges Tuesday, but he's making sure he's seen and heard before his departure. Of late, Weezy has taken to Twitter (much more on than in a minute) and Ustream to communicate with fans. On Saturday evening, Weezy and his favorite videographer, DJ Scoob Doo, sent MTV News a clip we're going to call "Nino Brown: The Road to Rikers, Part 1" (as in Rikers Island, the New York jail that Wayne's heading to).

Jennifer Lopez recently parted ways with Sony Records. So appearing on Saturday Night Live last night (February 27) was a good way for her to let off some steam and preview some new material as she looks for a new label.
Jenny From The Block performed "Pieces" and the appropriately titled "Starting Over" during the show.
She also gave a pretty funny impression of Rihanna, as SNL poked fun at the remake of "We Are The World"

Reporting from Bogota, Colombia - The death toll is expected to rise from a devastating earthquake that struck Chile early Saturday morning and President Michelle Bachelet declared parts of her country catastrophe zones.
Interior Minister Edmundo Perez Yoma told reporters at a midday news conference that the magnitude 8.8 quake with an epicenter 60 miles offshore from the port city of Concepcion had left at least 82 dead.
The first television transmission of the damage showed collapsed highway overpasses and buildings in south Santiago, the capital, and Concepcion. As many as 11 aftershocks, some of magnitude 6.0 or higher, continued to strike the region throughout the morning.
Coastal cities throughout the Pacific region from Acapulco to Hawaii were bracing for possible tsunamis.
In Hawaii, civil defense sirens sounded at 6 a.m. local time alerted residents to the expected arrival of a tsunami of 3 feet to 6 feet by midday.
Waves measuring more than 6 feet had struck the Chilean island of Juan Fernandez.
President-elect Sebastian Pinera, who takes office in two weeks, told reporters that the country had suffered serious damage to its infrastructure, including highways airports and housing.
This earthquake has delivered a tremendous blow to Chilean society, Pinera said. "Our government will do everything for the recovery and to accelerate reconstruction."
The quake, lasting at least 30 seconds, struck about 3:30 a.m. local time (10:30 p.m. PST). Residents of Santiago, many of them in their pajamas, poured into the streets. The city's international airport remained closed Saturday afternoon.
The White House pledged support in Chile's hour of need, and the State Department said all personnel in the country had been accounted for.
Yoma said emergency rescue teams were in operation in various cities
Fires broke out in Valparaiso and Concepcion, owing apparently to gas leaks.
Telephone and electric power were out and water services were all down in many cities for much of Saturday morning, and communication was problematic.
Television reports showed extensive damage in the Maule region 150 miles south of Santiago. One bridge over the Claro River had collapsed, according to local reports.
Chile was also the scene of one of the world's strongest earthquakes ever recorded in 1960 that left hundreds dead. The quakes are caused by the recurring collision of tectonic plates off the Chilean coastline.

Angie Jackson has taken micro-blogging to a whole new level.
In an attempt to “demystify” abortion, the 27-year-old shared her experience on Twitter, YouTube and her personal blog.
“I’m doing this so other women know, ‘Hey, it’s not nearly as terrifying as I had myself worked up thinking it was.’ It’s just not that bad,” Jackson said on her YouTube video.
Her ordeal began on February 13, when she discovered that her IUD, a contraceptive device placed in the uterus, failed.
Jackson, a mother of a four-year-old son with special needs, decided to terminate the pregnancy.
"I had made a decision when my son was born to try to not get pregnant again, and if that failed I'd planned that I would get an abortion if I needed one," Jackson told ABCNews.com.
Last Thursday, she went to her local Planned Parenthood in Tampa, Fla,. to get RU-486, commonly known as the abortion pill.
She started chronicling the experience on Twitter under the username “antitheistangie.”
"Cramps are getting a bit more persistent," Jackson typed.
A few hours later, her status changed to “Definitely bleeding now."
Jackson’s following has doubled from 800 since she first tweeted the news of her pregnancy, but not everyone is happy with Jackson’s openness.
Not only has she been criticized for being a “whore" who "can't keep her legs closed," but Jackson and her family have received threats as well.
“I’ve just been astonished by the level of hatred and death threats and threats of violence against my son. It’s been a very ugly side of people to see,” she told Web site The Frisky.
The Family Research Council published a blog entry calling Jackson’s decision a “tragedy.”
“Supporting her decision to abort her baby unintentionally does a grave injustice to Angie, her unborn child, her son and even her boyfriend,” wrote FRC director Jeanne Monahan. “Abortion kills one person and wounds at least one additional person.”
Still, Jackson is not letting the critics affect her.
"I'm not trying to ignite a culture war," she told ABCNews.com "I'm just offering one person's personal experience and true story."

Rapper Nas needs a wake-up call -- he's trying to win back his estranged baby mama Kelis (despite the fact she's suing him over child support) and now he owes the IRS a huge chunk of change.
We told you about the tax lien the IRS slapped on Nas back in October to the tune of $2,584,206.31. Now, according to court docs, Nas' bill has ballooned to a whopping $3,365,671.26. Not Joe Francis territory, but getting close.
Last week, Nas was ordered to pay baby mama Kelis $200,000 in back child and spousal support.
Our sources say Nas doesn't have a clue he's going under financially and doesn't understand he can go to jail if he doesn't pay child support. He was at Sundance recently and raked in $50,000 for a performance, which, we're told, he blew before he blew out of Sundance.
And more news in the non-reality department -- Nas has been sending Kelis a flurry of emails, telling her how much he wants her back and where she can fly to hook up with him. Nas -- she has a new boyfriend and has moved on. She really wants that divorce.
