Why is this most recent attempt to discredit a challenger garnering so much attraction from the Mayweather cult? I am beginning to think the super fans of Mayweather honestly believe Manny Pacquiao is an indestructible torrent of power and steroids. Where did this illusion come from? Being able to take Cotto's punches in the fight? (ruptured ear drum and busted up face) Oscar De La Hoya fought at 130, and maintained his chin up to 160. That is a 30 pound difference. How on earth is Manny super human for retaining his good chin up to 145? Why wasn't there a huge investigation into DLH for being able to take punches from Mosley/Vargas/Mayorga/Trinidad? I just don't understand the argument for it. We have Manny back in 05 complaining about a blood test, then we have him doing it again in 2009. He is consistent, he has never brought up a phobia of needles or a fear of giving blood, just a statement that "it weakens me". Where is the consistency with anything Mayweather says? He rips into opponents and discredits them when it helps him, and builds them up when they need to be sold. Check out his video on why we "should all order the judah fight because judah is a champion and even though he lost to baldomir this is going to be a great fight for the championship(that baldomir didn't pay the sanctioning fees for)" He then went on to say "split decisions don't count... those mean nothing" Even though his big win against DLH is a split decision. Everything is convenient when it lines up FOR floyd, then once it's not in his favor, he has to make a billion hypocritical excuses. I applaud Brian Kenny and RA Rugged man for standing up to Mayweather and trying to force some honesty out of him. Mayweather is a boxing Don king. A salesman for a bad product. Right now his current product is "You don't want to see me fight Pacquiao, he's a cheater" Same product he was pitching when Mosley's name came up. Same product he was selling to not fight Margarito. Those who don't study history are doomed to repeat it, and you are repeating the same mistake of letting Floyd off the hook against a real challenge. It's ok, Manny stole fighter of the era/decade out from under him anyway, so really Floyd has to take a back seat regardless, and his next fight has to be Manny caliber opposition or he will clearly be considered the biggest 'what if' we have ever seen. I just have 1 challenge for any of the fans who are on the fence, or think Pacquiao is already guilty. Go watch his fights again, go pay attention to his in and out movement, his hand speed, and his angle punching. Go look at his heart, and his willingness to trade. Go watch him learn how to use his right hand, and instantly put himself up to another level. Watch him lose to Morales, watch him eek out a decision vs Marquez, watch him have to chase a mentally defeated Cotto, watch him have to punch Diaz a billion times to finally stop the fight, watch him strafe an old DLH, watch him expose Hatton's defense, watch him train his ass off. Watch all of this **** again, and tell me somehow you think this guy is cheating. If you really think after looking at his career that he is on any performance enhancing drugs, then you have a lot of explaining to do for a **** ton of fighters that came before him.
