This guy is the biggest coward in the history in boxing.
Just listened to the video again it's been a while since I last did that. In the video Mayweather states that he is one of the first athletes to talk about Olympic random blood testing, however, he doesn't do Olympic random drug testing. As far as I know there are only two fighters out there that do Random Performance Enhancing Drug testing and one of them is Nonito Donier who has been doing it for years for everyone of his fights, the other fighter I cannot recall his name.
Also Mayweather talks about Pacquiao needing to solve the Marquez problem and Bradley problem. Which if anyone saw the Bradley vs Pacquiao fight you would see that Pac won that fight and he was robbed by the judges. Also, Pac has already beaten Marquez three times, the reason why these two fighters keep fighting is because they put on wars in the ring and the fans are entertained, and win, lose, or draw the fans have a hard time deciding who really won...minus the fourth fight in which Marquez knocks Pac out.
Mayweather then says "he needs to beat these guys before he can step into the Lions Den with Floyd Mayweather". Never actually having been into a lions den, I'm assuming that's a dangerous place to be, however, if Floyd is referring to himself as the Lion...that doesn't seem like it's a very scary place anymore, unless he is referring to the judges as the lions, since that's how he actually wins his fights is through the judges score cards, then maybe it is a scary place for Pacquiao to be in.
mayweather can never claims he is the best fighter until he'd fought and beat pacquiao. mayweather is very clever, he'll not fight mosley when mosley was at his best. he will do the same with pacquiao. ali was voted the fighter of the century because he's never dodge fighter.
@ sengchanh you seem to think Mayweather always had the clout that her currently possesses How many time s did Mayweather call out Mosley? here is what actually happened: Mayweather was very good & the pay off would be worth it to people like De La Hoya & Mosley opted not to fight him until Mayweather left them little financial choice. as for Pac why does May need Pac but Pac doesnt need May? Through out their Careers Mayweather has been the higher ranked P4P fighter the bigger draw & has the better record. Arum will never let Pac fight him
I'd never seen any fighter dodge a fight like Mayweather did to Pacquiao. Make no mistake, the fight will be fought between these two. Pacquiao wants this fight because he just want to challenge himself. Mayweather also wants this fight because if he is retired without facing off with Pacquiao, he will be regarded as the biggest running chicken in boxing history. Pacquiao is still dangerous but his power and footwork is not as great as say 3-4 years ago (2010/11), when he was regarded as P4P king and 7 times world champion. A year or two from now his power and footwork will be even less lethal, then Mayweather will want to fight Pacquiao. you have to give credit to Mayweather for being cunning. Why would you want to go to war with someone when your enemy is at their lethal best (Sun Tzu, the art of war).
The first time I heard a champion ask too many conditions before fighting somebody. Never heard Ali, Foreman, Duran, Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, Tyson, Holyfield etc ask that much.
The more obstacles a Champion/Boxer puts up to prevent a fight from happening the LESS that boxer want that fight.
Floyd is a ducker and dodger, we all know that...
Mayweather knows if he fights Pacquiao and loses, he'll be the laughing stock of the boxing world...why? Because he's talked so much trash and portrayed himself as undefeatable that one loss can ruin his legitimacy for the title of pound for pound king and his marketability status.

Perolas Do Whats APP
No....YOU ARE!
thnks babe
Perolas Do Whats APP
Oh you're very welcome!
only fights ppl he knows he can beat
this guys so arrogant that he can't even say who would give him a hard time in the ring. i just keep on loosing respect for him
You are forgetting that many all time greats like Ali, and Ray Leonard were just as arrogant. Ali was probably the most arrogant boxer during his press conferences and even in the ring, he would talk smack.
22dab95 at least Ali could admit who would give him a hard time in the ring

"Lennox Lewis beat Klits and Lewis was only 60% fit for that fight. Oh and guess what, Klits and his brother are the Heavyweight champs. Lewis was also 38yrs old compared to Klits at 32yrs old. So your point is what exactly????."
My point is that Lennox Luis beat all the great fighters of his era at the end of their careers never when they where on top of their game or at their pinnacle. Klitchko was just starting he was a newby, and he was winning the fight, until the doctor stopped the fight and everyone booed because he was winning.
The same way Mayweather has beaten all these former champions, with the exception of Diego Corrales and Gotti, but lets face it Gotti was no champion, just a very exciting fighter who fans loved to see whether he won or loss, unlike Mayweather.
and he keeps not giving a fuck about your opinion and keeps getting millions
elakeshowt
huh?
45-0-0 17 years undefeated champion..fought 22 world champion at their own weight class never been ko never been knock down never ever took no punishment in that ring..always fought fighters that came from victory wins,fighters at their best...where was pac 17 years ago??pac was a pro before floyd where was he.??got KO 6 times..been knocked down ...took a bad asswhoopin by morales..last time I checked every body thaught marquez just killed lady boy pac...just bring pac s record!!TMT
then why he wont fight back then?? if u think that way why not fight manny??? HAHAHA. JUST SCARED ? if gayweather think he is the best why not fight manny when he was the best?? he wants to fight manny now that hes old. pussy moves Hahaha
kratos015
Got KO'd 6 times? Mate, he has only last 5 total so I think you need to check your facts...He also ended up agreeing to the random drug tests so I didn't see where the problem was, only to see the Mayweather's greedy, arrogant ass demanded that he receive more of the royalties, which is absolutely pathetic. He is undoubtably one of the greatest of all time, but he is ridiculously cocky and self-centered. This interview portrays him just building himself up, even goes as far as talking in the third person lmfao.
man..floyd doesnt need pac//pac needs floyd+ pac is just an employee bob s slave so he needs to shut the fuck up cuz he calling up shit!! floyd is the boss and pac s boss said they were building a stadium...where is it??then the cut after the marquez fight was a problem..then the needles..dont blame floyd for the fight not to happen..floyd even called pac on the phone..but lady boy and his master always had an excuse..been ko 6 or 3 times dude got fucked up any way so i dont see no diffrence!! pac was smart he would leave top rank and make big money..and that 50/50 when floyd is making way more money then pac by not even fighting him it s scilly..40 mil it s more money then pac will ever hearn in is career..floyd already making more then that..pac maximum pay day it s 25 mil with ppv and now dude is broke ..go on espn boxing they r talking about that..dude didnt pay his taxes and is reported to being broke so when floyd offerds him 40 mil he should have take it but no he ws playing thine mouth and now he s broke and master bob is happy...pac is dumb!!40 mil was gonna be his biggest pay day and a chance to fight floyd..now it s over,he fights floyd he wouldnt get 40 mil ..probably like canelo 12 mil!!
All your comments was clearly bias and exaggerated and disrespectful. So i won't argue with you go to floyds lap and pump it.
He says Pac needs to get past Bradley and Marquez to go up into his level to fight him, but then he contradicts himself by stepping down and fighting a lower rank fighter like Maidana, what a lying coward Mayweather is.
exactly hatton hurt floyd early in there fight. it took manny three punches to finish hatton off .it took floyd 11 rounds to finish off hatton . a smaller hatton had to move up in weight to fight floyd. floyds fans will never say that though
TBE Two Balls Empty
Kaith Navalta How would you know?
Marquez's losses to Pacquiao worked him into such a frenzy he was able to workout double time, he worked really really hard, so much the head of the anti-doping agency announced they strongly believed he was on steroids, but really it was just his work ethic, everybody knows that. At 39 years old he got into the best shape of his career and somehow managed to double his punching power moving up in weight after seeming to have no power at all in his first fights at welterweight.
I've heard from a few people (white college guys for whatever its worth) I know who've actually met him off camera in Michigan that Floyd is a really nice, down to earth, cool dude especially towards fans. It looks like he plays a role, like the WWE wrestlers do, when the cameras are on to get paid.
Floyd has 2 fights left before retirement, Now that Pacquiao is Back, it should be Floyd's Last Fight, After May.
-"Pac said no"
Pacman agreed to take the test before the fight, at the night of the fight, and after the fight.
-"he went on other fighters for less money"
Pac agreed for 45-55 split, still denied. Then Floyd fought other fighters for less.
-"Floyd called Manny, no response."
They had a conversation, nothing was agreed.
Sorry, but Floyd's not the greatest figher of all time, in many peoples' books, because of his reluctance to fight Pac while they were in their primes.
People seriously need to learn what that means before trying to use it as an excuse. Floyd and Marquez fight the same style, even Bradley fights similar the way he defended against Manny. Manny struggled with both of them, I see no reason why he wouldnt lose to Floyd, sorry if you disagree.
I cant understand why this man has so many haters, if you love boxing like i do you gotta love watching this guy fight, in my opinion, the greatest pound for pound boxer the sport of boxing has ever seen, and im up for anyone to debate it
Pacquiao VS Mayweather fight will go down in Boxing history as the "biggest fight that never happened."
So your saying Pacquiao agreed to money less than a 50-50 but didn't agree to drug testing, then a year or two later Pacquiao agreed to the drug testing but wanted a 50-50
Well lets see...Saul Alvarez is undefeated coming off a victory over
Trout, Cotto had 3 consecutive wins all due to stoppage, Ortiz had just taken the wbc title from Berto and had the biggest win of his career, Mosley was coming off a tko victory over Margarito, Marquez had just beaten Cassamayor and coming off a tko victory over Jaun Diaz, Hatton was undefeated and Koed Castillo in 4, DLH was #1 at 154 and coming off a tko in 6 against Mayorga. Do I need to go on or do you get the point?
when you win our lose, legacy is you.. fighter is fighter.. what ever you say your legacy has the story
Pacquiao fought a drained Oscar, catchweight 145 lbs. Pacquiao also ducked Mosley to fight Margarito, didn't fight Mosley until Floyd beat him. Miguel Cotto was at a catchweight 145 lbs after suffering a KO loss, Hatton suffered a KO loss already. The one thing you can't deny is that Pacquiao has a history of fighting guys at catchweights and when they are coming off a loss. Floyd-canelo is only Floyd's 2nd catchweight. and he fights winners.
Answer my question what would be more impressive? P acquio was fighting twice a year while Floyd was taking long layoffs fighting every year and half pacquio has fought more fights than floyd
Floyd has a speed advantage and that's what keeps him winning. The only boxer that has speed is Manny and Manny doesn't just hit fast and run, he does combos fast. He is the only one that might do it.
floyd fought mosley when he was ranked #1 in the world at welter weight. when pacquiao beat delahoya easy after the weight drain. mosely called out pacquiao numerous times and pacquiaos team declined everytime and freddy roach even said in an interview that mosely is to good and better than delahoya and would fight mosely if he came down to 142 pounds.
floyd fought cotto at 154 when he was champion and won three in a row with KO. manny fought cotto at 145 after a close win/margo beat down.
Well done for putting an old video up ???
I completely feel you, Marquez is a warrior and he broke manny up in those fights, his counter punches were sick and he finished the quadruple with dirty ko and manny's face on the mat. The judges judged the fights to manny because his style was flashy and quick, Juan's straights, combo's and counters however were far more effective in my opinion. Floyd made easy work of Juan and he would of manny too, but floyd's big fight is against Canelo, canelo is the only guy who stands a slight chance.
He may not be ready, but I hope we get to find out. It would be a smart fight for Alvarez, as losing a close decision would be like winning since he's so young (think Ray Mancini losing to Arguello).
Consider the timing of the fights and the opponent WHEN they fought.Cotto-Pac was 1.25PPV not counting Asia. At the time of negotiations, PAC was on par w/Floyd as a draw. Floyd wanted 60% of money up front plus ALL of PPV money over 1m buys. That killed it. The point is, Pac was much bigger challenge than washed out Cotto (awful at 154), Mosely and Guerrero. You know this. Both parties should have had iron clad rematch clause; if first fight was good, EVERYONE would want part II.
Everyone keeps talking about Pacquiao vs. Mayweather all the time. Alot of talk for a fight that "no longer has much weight". Just fight each other and thats it. Unless you're scared. If you're so certain you can beat him, then what is there to lose? Besides the title, your respect, and everyone finding out you lost to Pacquiao.
I've never seen a guy so scared and Hell bent on avoiding one fighter in all my life, all the past great champions fought all comers, but Mayweather comes up with nothing but excuses.
That's because Floyd wasnt intersted, like I said he never took Manny seriously. It's all a bunch of media propaganda that leads people to believe he's a threat to Floyd. Manny didn't want to take the test, he turned it down for 5 straights and only agreed last year and decided to go back on his word when he said he was willing to go 50/50. The fight is only canceled when MANNY cant agree to the terms. Manny says he's the people's champ and doesnt fight for money, yet...
i just saw an interview of floyd where he indirectly explains why he wont fight pacquiao and i kinda get his reasons. he's looking out for his health and his image after he retires. he said " no point in taking punishment". he said deeper things after that that kinda shows that he is a good and smart man. shame the fight wont happen though.. would? have been good..
"Pacquiao has Timothy Bradley problems.....he has Marquez problems... Marquez was one of my easiest fights...." Lol! That is priceless ....
Excuses?
Floyd said he will fight Pac if he takes the test, Pac said no, and came up with excuses. "Its weakens me" "I'm superstitious" etc.
Floyd offered Pac a guarantee 40 million, the most Pac will ever make. Pac said no and he went on to fighter other fighters for less money. WTF!?
Floyd called Manny directly on the phone after the 3rd fight with JMM. No response. Arum came up with excuses like "we need to build a stadium" "Pac's cut needs to heal"
Pacwoman has too many excuses.
And the khan fight has "Weight" ?
Commercially? Yes.
As for americans not paying for ppv dont be mistaken Khan has a very large fan base outside of the USA and will give mayweather a run for his money.
You are the one who is mistaken the pacquaio vs mayweather fight would bring in untold revenue !
Lol, u just beat him with his own logic haha.
How has he not proven he is the best with 45-0? Just like he said, his whole legacy is supposed to be defined by 1 fight and who has Paq beaten that Floyd hasn't? Paq is still struggling with Marquez.
There was nothing tough about Floyd's fight against Hatton. He outclassed him from start to finish and won 8 of the 9 completed rounds. Walk in the park.
Please just fight Pac! No more excuses, let's not bring the past back. Just fight him what's important is Pac is ready to fight. Win or lose just give this to the fans please.
I'm really trying my hardest to like Floyd because of his topnotch boxing skills and his sense of humor. He's entertaining, inside or outside the ring, and that's always likable in a fighter. However, I really don't understand why he isn't pushing the fight against Manny when he says that boxing is business and he's all about the money. A fight with Manny would definitely earn him the biggest paycheck of his career, and a victory would only prove, once and for all, without a doubt, that he is the best P4P boxer and greatest champion of this era, or even of all-time, yet he doesn't show any interest in doing the fight. Why?
You meant Mayweather right? Pacquiao isn't the one trying to run. Also Mayweather is fighting Saul Alvarez next.
Your point is backed by hearsay, my point is backed by facts. One fight doesnt define a fighters career, and I could easily say the same about Manny.
Oh my goodness, you ppl don't realize that floyd is a boxing GENUIS. At his age he hasn't slowed at all. He thought PAC was on roids at the time and u gotta respect that what if PAC was on it. Pacquiao is an awesome fighter but he can't OUTBOX floyd, Marquez said it oscar said it and some others.
You can totally disagree, but the facts are the facts. I think Mayweather could beat Pac - or anybody else out there - but for some reason, at the time, he was reluctant to fight him.
He will be remembered as the greatest defensive fighter and one of the greatest fighters ever. Judging by your choice of words I can see that you dont know much about boxing."Warrior Spirit" "Toe to Toe"? This isnt a fucking cartoon. Most people say they have 'heart', 'a warrior spirit' or 'i go toe to toe' to make up for their lack of defense,ring iq, speed or anything that takes skill. To me those words mean 'i can take a punch very well'. Floyds career is not defined by fighting manny.
I would love to see Floyd fight one of the belt holders at 160 to see if he can get his sixth belt in six weight divisions after he beats Canelo. I think Floyd can beat some of the guys at 160 but in catchweight. Now 168 is a different story.
To quote Roger Mayweather "Most people dont know shit about boxing"
styles make fights floyd fought a bloated marquez when they fought at a catchweight fight just because marquez gave manny problems it doesnt mean that floyd can beat manny if they do fight it will be a close fight
You think Pacquiao is still a threat to Floyd? You would change your tune if they did fight sometime in the future and Floyd won, then you would say Pacquiao was washed up. So whatever.
Floyd "Excuses" Mayweather. Dude never wanted any part of Pacquiao.
Mayweather is at the top. He's on another level.
Mayweather has every right to pick his opponent. Floyd doesn't just nobodies.
Mayweather just beat the most feared fighter at 154, but you're still talking shit.
So what about Pac?
Pac ducked everyone from 135, 140, 154, and cherry picked everyone from 147.
He fights fighters coming off a loss or tough win then he drains them at catch-weight. Most of them are Floyd's leftovers.
Floyd gets all the hate, even though no one is better than him.
Also Oscar was weight drained against Manny as was Cotto. Floyd never asked for any bullshit catch weights against them and Floyd let Oscar pick the weight. I don't think Floyd's terms were unreasonable for the proposed fight with Manny, it's just a case of Arum knowing who was gna win that and would rather make the money fighting 3 or 4 easier fights against fighters who he could dictate the terms.
And by the way the last time I checked Mayweather beat De lahoya by decision after the 12th round Pacman made him quit after the 8th. It never matters who beat who.
Yeah that's true some fighters can benefit from a loss, but just that one loss, especially a KO loss can psychology damage a fighter. The guy i was replying to was putting down Floyd's record and who he fights so I just reminded him that Pacquiao's opponents and record is perfect, and had flaws.
... his opponents dont throw back enough for him to even have to. He used to fighting punching bags and statues, which is why fighters like Marquez give him so much trouble.
styles makes fights just because one fighter can beat another fighter that doesn't mean he can beat everyone else marquez has done something that Floyd never has done fight pacquio
What does relate is in every fight Marquez had with Pacquiao he took a serious assbeating to stay in there with him, don't think Floyd is going to handle much of that and it doesn't matter if Floyd could hit Marquez or not, he obviously wasn't fighting him the same way Pacquiao would.
Sorry wrong again. Floyd never wanted a cut-off, Pacquiao did. So Floyd tried to work with him. A clean fighter wouldn't negotiate for such strict testing! if he was clean he wouldn't give a fuck about a cut-off or if the tests were random. Pacquiao originally agreed to less than a 50-50 but said no to the testing, a couple yrs later was when he actually agreed to the testing but wanted a 50-50. look this shit up on wikipedia it's all there.
Finally someone who sees it for what it really is.. He agreed to all his terms, & he still won't take the biggest fight he can have. Lets be real, there's no other big fight for Mayweather left.... Mayweather won't ever fight Pacquiao.. Not as long as he's a left hand fighter, with speed & power.
Floyd Fought Hatton, Oscar, Gatti, and now he is fighting Canelo. Those were the most in demand fights at the times, and Floyd gave the fans what they wanted. Manny fought washed up bums the whole time. He fought maybe 1 or 2 people coming off of wins during his streak. The question will always be why didn't Bob Arum let Manny fight Floyd. Floyd is suppose to be scared to fight Canelo, and that fight negotiation got done really quick. Same as Hatton, and Oscar. Ask Manny why he ducked Floyd.
was and still is the most lucrative fight in boxing
...you'll see Manny did the exact same thing in their other fights. The difference being Marquez never caught him flush on the chin like that. I didnt think it was over because I'm not just a casual boxing fan who watches fights every now and then. I've been in the ring before I know what it's like to get hurt when your opponent wont stop swinging cause he's going for the kill. Manny didnt beat Bradley either, alot of folks are in denial about that fight. I dont care how many people say so.
He made the mistake of watching Floyd fight before the fight and got so bored he had to take a breather.
Well if he can't beat Bradley and Marquez how do you expect him to beat Floyd who's faster, better counter puncher, longer reach, better reflexes, better footwork, taller, etc.? He just got knocked out for god sakes. If Floyd fights him and beats him now you'd all scream about how he cherry picked Manny after he lost. Manny has never been on Floyd's level, remember Marquez was supposed to be his tune up fight and he lost every time.
As a fan of both Manny AND Floyd, one of the things I hate about the "floyd exclusive" fans are that they are extremely biased. So biased in fact, that they ignore the ever so obvious and undeniable signs that Floyd has constantly created new reasons to CAUSE Manny to decline fights with him. And when Manny swallows his pride and decides to accept, Floyd comes up with a new stipulation. So it looks like Manny is the one ducking Floyd, but instead Floyd is doing what I call "tactical ducking".
He didn't lose to Marquez EVERY TIME, MR SHIT FOR BRAINS. I believe he only lost ONCE against Marquez. I swear Pac losing to Marquez is the BEST THING that has ever happened to Gayweather; It has given him the ULTIMATE EXCUSE NOT TO EVER FIGHT PAC. You Black Americans sound like you're ready to ADOPT MARQUEZ as ONE OF YOUR OWN. Once again, just because Pac lost to Marquez does NOT mean that Gayweather can beat him. And yes, Pac vs Gayweather would be WAY BIGGER than this fight against CANELO.
That's where I disagree with you, Floyd knows he can beat Pacquiao, Before Marquez KO. He's the smartest man in boxing inside the ring and out. He claim he doesn't study film of fighters? yeah right he studied the tape of all 3 Pac-Marquez fights. Floyd fought Marquez after a 2 year layoff and dominated, a year later he got to study Marquez-Pac 3. People can say how much speed Pac has but against Marquez his "speed" looks ordinary at least in the 3rd fight. Floyd can use his reach easily.
You know how to read. You said that if Pac isnt such a threat to Floyd why doesnt he fight him, the same can be said of Broner. Fact of the matter is Manny isnt really a threat, there are other factors that come into play other than just "fear", I get tired of people saying so and so is scared of this fighter because the fight wasnt made. I can easily say Manny is scared.
Maybe....but alltime greats bounce back. Hearns got caught vs Barkley in a fight he was dominating; Norris vs Julian Jackson....I could go on and on but you get the point. The only top fighter I can remember who never recovered was Camacho, and he didnt even get KO'd. He got hit with a right hand in 9th round vs Rosario and changed his style for the rest of his career. The change made him competitive but not great. Pacquiao, despite the KO, is still a great fighter with unique skill.
Mosley admitted that he used steroids there is no proof that pacquio used steroids Floyd never said that pacquio was on steroids the testing was to benefit both sides
Love to see Pacquio vs Alverez
Martinez didn't want to fight at 147 manny had to decide the weight of the fight not sergio martinez.
Floyd is actually nicer here lol
less speech impediment..lol
Floyd is the talented guy that will easily outpoint slow fighters. Yes he loves to fight slow fighters.
If a Brawler fights slow fighters, he will still take punishments because he is always in attack mode.
PACQUIAO: It's up to my promoter.
FLOYD: He(pacman) doesn't want to fight me.All he needs to do is step up to the ring.
PACQUIAO: AnytIme, anywhere.
FLOYD: Random blood and urine tests.
No your wrong. He was never as big as Floyd in terms of PPV. The numbers are available for anyone who wants to see them, I'm not making that up. Floyd makes more money (by far) and generates more money (by far). Floyd has the right to demand everything. weather you like it or not. He is also promoting his fights which means his company is paying for advertisment etc. he needs to make more money to cover the cost of the event, not all the money is going in his pocket.
Because that's what Mayweather will forever be known for. Running from his biggest fight with Pacquiao.
GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE... People just knew Canelo & Mosley was going to beat Mayweather, didn't happen. Now if Pacquiao fought Floyd, yall would say "Aww Pac-man was washed up." so cmon and get over it, Floyd is the best in boxing.
First of all, we don't know for sure how many buys the Floyd-Pac fight would have been so to say "Floyd turned down 2.5million ppv buys" I honestly believe the fight wouldn't have broke Floyd-Oscars record. Pac is no where near Oscars status.
oh, and you mean Pernells 1993 DRAW to Julio Cesar Chavez in SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS USA?
To john martin... by any chance are you a boxer or an mma fighter? No beef im just curious.
Why do people who dont know what that means always try to bring styles up as an excuse? Both Bradley and Marquez were counter pucnhers, bradley is more of a boxer/puncher like Floyd, but they all countered Manny and set up shots were elusive defensively, etc. So yes I can say that because Manny had difficulties with the two of them, that he would have an even harder time with Floyd because they all fight a similar style. He was the same as he always fought Marquez reckless, watch their other...
Anyone who brings Gatti to a discussion about good fighters shouldnt be allowed on a forum. Gatti was beaten by ham and eggers like Mickey Ward and Ivan Robinson (twice). Blown away by Oscar; outboxed by Manfredy. I mean c'mon with Gatti.
We would both be happy if we got Manny-Floyd I and II and both were back and forth wars. What about Canelo Alvarez? GoldenBoy wants to make the fight before a Pac-Manny bout. I dont see 4 or even 5 quality opponents left for Floyd.
before the Marquez fight, Pacquiao said in an interview that he finally agreed to everything that Quack Quack Jr. to make the fight happen (blood test, purse split, etc. ) BUT Crack Jr. never called him back. I guess Floydie Jr. couldn't figure out a new excuse back then
where did you get this info? was it Olympic style blood testing? tell me cause i'll look it up.
The last thing you said is key...It was all about Top rank vs TMT...Floyd played hard ball with them,you can't knock for not wanting to be like many fighters who get robbed of most of their money and blow the rest...What do you think happen to Mike Tyson he got robbed....Telling Pac to sign with him(witch we all know Pacquiao would never do) tells you the real story it's about TopRank.
Except he agreed to any testing Floyd wanted 3 years ago. Cotto just agreed because he knew he was out of juice and just made that for money and then Trout beat him and no one gives a fuck about Cotto anymore.
How many times has Floyd told Pacquiao to become his own boss get rid of Arum...Mayweather don't like doing biz with Top Rank because their robber barons, witch I'm not crying about it is what it is Floyd came from up under them...I do fell you on one thing Pacquiao should be respected as a great champion no matter who you root for.
he waited pacquiao to be hit alot so that he will take advantage and let pacquiao body weaken and thats what happend.. and now the fight i thought is no longer a wait because mayweather is a smart fghter he knows when the right tym to fights his opponent and he thinks that this time manny pacquiao has no chance of winning against him with the lost to bradley and a knockout lost to marquez,, even though he won his last fight with rios. c what happend to mosly mayweather and cotto mayweather.. after so manny years finally they fought because those fighters is not on their best shape.eventually pacquiao mayweather. mayweather win. hahaha mayweather is a smart fighter.
In the very 1st negotiations Manny Pacquiao agreed to the money, less than a 50-50 split but didn't want to take random blood and urine testing that's a fact! Then later on Floyd offered Manny the same deal, Manny then agreed to the testing but wanted more money. It's not Floyd's fault.
Stick to what you do best Floyd. Beating Women, bigotry, racism and ducking opponents.
floyd has no right to say bradley problems, he hasnt even grown the balls to fight bradley, OR TROUT and hes saying pacquiao has problems
I havent seen any of those fights except for the Malinaggi fight. I do believe he's overrated though, some people seem to think he can beat Floyd but he's no where near that level yet and I honestly dont think he'll ever be.
What would be more impressive Floyd beating a manny in his prime or a manny who is a hasbeen? floyd beating a manny who had a big winning streak going or floyd beating a hasbeen manny whats more impressive?
Hi my name is Floyd Mayweather Jr and I have never fought anyone even close to a top 50 GOAT anywhere near their prime and the one I had a chance to fight I ducked, I'm the greatest that ever did it.
Interestingly theres 2 ways to look at JMM-Pac; JMM is a Hall of Famer, yet couldnt dominate Pac and was actually getting outboxed and was hurt before his KO win. Floyd will most likely outbox Pac. But Pac is a tough assignment too. Like Shane Mosely said; Floyd would win, but Pac's punches hurt. And this is from a guy who fought Canelo, Margarito, Cotto, etc.
Mayweather making excuses again. he said he doesn't want to fight Pac just because Pac lost his last 2 fights but the fucker fought Cotto who had multiple losses on record. Ortiz, Guerrero & Canelo what a cherry picker!!
bradley did say to maxboxing that he doesnt want to fight in china. it was posted last week his comments . marquez was offered his biggest pay day for a fifth fight against manny but him getting a win in asia against manny especially a decision in china against pacquio the odds will be against marquez in china .
