To be so "afraid" of Pacquiao, it's Pacquiao who has all of the excuses. "My leg is sore" "Blood tests weaken me" "My butt hurts" Floyd wants it more and if they do fight it'll be another masterpiece by Floyd. Possibly his best performance but no question one-sided. Pacq just ain't half as good as made out to be though there's no problem with losing to a truly great fighter like Floyd.
What do you mean? If he didn't think Pac, there would have been no OSDT demands in the first place. The demands came to be because of how extraordinary Pac was. FMJ loves money, and he knew the monetary potential of him fighting Pacquiao 2 years ago. 99% of Floyd's bravado comes from his being undefeated. You can't tell me that losing that 0 isn't a major concern of his, and he saw Pac as someone who could take it...now, he doesn't.
You've got to admit this. Pacman's last outing has put some serious doubts in the minds of most boxing fans. Prior to Marquez, I think the general consensus was that Pac was going to prove to be Mayweather's downfall but after seeing how easy he was to counter and hit, it's a completely different story. It still is going to be the undisputed biggest bout in history (in terms of cash at least) but perhaps the general opinion has now swung in favour of PBF. God I hope he knocks Mayweather on his arse but you just have to accept that Floyd is one slick ******* who is probably going to counter Pac all night long and frustrate the crap out of him.
I agree with this. The ***** parade here on ESB is about to get annoying. With Pacs stock going down, even the silly accusations for PEDS is starting to gain ground again. And suddenly everyone is forgetting about how Floyd lost his urge, went for a vaccation, sounded completly paranoid about Pac, and contradicted himself endlessy about the mysterious cut off date.
wow! just wow. so much love for floyd and all of them are bias.. floyd will be remembered as a ducker. he ducked so many fighters not just pac. margo,cotto,williams,pac,mosley prime, etc
lol people need to just accept both these guys are the greatest fighters of this current era hopefully they give us a good show and may the best man win period
Forget what Floyd has done in the past. Everyone knows he has taken the easy fight when he could. Look at the fight on its merit. If Pacman crudely lunges like he did against Marquez - then he is in trouble. It's not some sort of horrible love-in for Mayweather. Honestly, I couldn't give a **** about him or his supposed no. 1 pound for pound ranking. I'd rather watch most other divisions but at the end of the day we're fans of the sport and there is no bigger fight out there.
He waited for Pac to get old, and Pac purposely fought a poor performance to lure Floyd onto fighting him. Yup, that sounds about right.
i just want to comment on the Mosley prime part. Floyd was still at the lower weight classes when mosley was in his prime. you can make a argument as to why he didn't fight sooner but not during mosleys prime
