Look at who they both fought... Neither are cowards. Lots of keyboard warriors on here. you probably work on farms and stuff. Its all Business. Be a fan of both, stop bitching.
Floyd is a coward. Floyd: I'm a coward. Oh wait, Floyd never said that so stop putting words in his mouth .
Its morons like you that see boxing for what promoters want you to see it as (a business over a sport) that make me hate this board sometimes. Hell even from a business end, the fight would have maxed out profits like 4 years ago....So how is having it in may (5 years after it SHOULD have been made) best for business? YDKSAB and YDKSABusiness
While I think coward is a harsh characterization for risk aversion, the two aren't exactly mutually exclusive. Furthermore, I have no problem with anybody putting them and their promoters on blast for the failure to make this fight happen.
I don't believe either of them is a coward either. Floyd's a promoter though, Pacquiao is not, so Floyd catches the flak for it. Pacquiao can have Roach pick or dictate fights to "even the odds" or make it safer for him and not get criticized.
farms are hard and sometimes dangerous work, which feed your dumb ass so you have energy to say stupid stuff with your keyboard, warrior. stop bitching.
No boxer is a coward but boxers do duck each other ..Mayweather ducking Manny is the epitome of that .
All fighters that Mayweather "ducked" were conveniently TR fighters. He didn't duck Corrales did he, or Castillo, or the Castillo rematch, he was even accused of ducking Baldomir FFS, and he fought him. He didn't duck Hatton, DLH after KO'ing Mayorga, he didn't duck Mosley when every one said he would duck him in 2010. He magically stopped "ducking" Cotto as soon as Cotto left TR. He didn't duck Canelo, he's not ducking a Maidana rematch. Okay then....but but but, he ducked Margarito, Cotto and Pacquiao doe.
Let's see... Pacquiao moved up in weight to fight a monster like Marco Antonio Barrera. Were are the prime ATGs on Mayweather's resume? Oh, he fought a fatty Marquez and didn't even make weight. Why would Pacquiao be afraid of Mayweather?
Floyd Mayweather Jr was accused of ducking Baldomir in 2006. By fans, critics, and even publicly on ESPN vs Brian Kenny.
