    He took 2 weeks off from training when he only had 2 months in total to train?

    Are you sure about that? I heard MAYBE a day or 2 off, but 2 weeks?

    that's 25% of his training time that you're stating he lost. That doesn't sound accurate whatsoever.

    The guy in the video is Keandre Gibson. He saw pacman sparring everyday like a "beast", he was hitting the bag like a demon, and didn't notice anything wrong with how he was throwing with the right hand at all.

    It's amazing, the media were all over these 2 fighters and giving updates on a daily basis on what was going on inside the camps. It seems to me if Pacman was off for 25% of his training, we would've heard about it through the media who was covering him quite closely throughout his training.

    It's really not about "deserving" as much as it is about money. Both can make a lot of money yet again if they do rematch so it will inevitably happen. I'm expecting it to be Mayweather's 50th fight and attempt at breaking Marciano's record.

    he dosent dererve it! I was a bif PAC fan and I would have rather waited another 6 months if infact he was injured rather than witness what I witnessed and if he lied about the injury then he hes just a soar loser. I personally feel he is lying about the injury and he is regretting not making the most of his opportunity!

    Do you know how many trainers/promoter/managers have made that cliche remark that their fighter can beat his opposition with one arm behind his back?

    You're making this sound like some kind of discreet revelation on Roach's part when in fact it's just an overused cliche in combat sports. This is a term that's been used for over 100 years in this sport.

    And one of Pacman's sparring partners, Keandre Gibson, says Pacman was using BOTH hands when he was sparring DAILY.

    So, I don't know, I tend to side with the guy that actually was in his training camp and has no reason to say Pacman looked like a beast with BOTH hands while he was sparring and hitting the heavy bags unless it actually did happen.

    Losing to your arch-rival is not the same as losing to any fighter.

    floyd is not confident on establishing his legacy with unquestionable win and dominance in his reign as top p4p boxer. he is just playing it safe for the money and it is influencing a lot of boxers but destroying the sport with paying fans moving away. if he has some love of the sport that made him rich then hopefully he will do something for the sport. follow up maybe truly cleaning up the sport for one. his drug test was not transparent and he refused vada.

    They will fight again. Mayweather knows it.


    The first fight generated too much money.

    Why wouldn't you want to see a rematch?

    As you mentioned for 5 years straight- since its the only post I ever see you state OVER AND OVER AGAIN- FLoyd's health comes first.

    I guess he's not too worried about his health when it comes to fighting Pacman, huh?

    shouldn't this thread be deleted along with all the other threads calling Mayweather a runner...? Or is free speech subjective :think

    Can we just have one mega "Pacquiao/mayweather is a [insert negative word]" thread because I'm getting tired of seeing these threads that have NO substance and is paramount to trash piling up.

    Can we at least have some different boxer getting the negative treatment ¬_¬

    You guys are embarrassingly stupid. Do you even know that those selfies were a part of a sponsorship/advertising deal with Samsung?. Pacquiao wasn't doing those to troll or be a comedian.
