    “If I don’t ask for a larger share,and then what if I lose? He’s fine because he’s a congressman, but I’m just a boxer,” said Floyd.

    Actually they do. In many third world countries, corruption is rife and even small ministers of districts rake in money. Phillipines is also a country suffering from corruption.

    So now Pacquiao is a corrupt politician as well as a steroid abuser?

    Wow.

    Is he also hiding in Floyd's closet at night to leap out and say "Boogedy boogedy!"

    Or is the closet too cramped with 50 in there?

    He should be admitting his fear of Manny Pacquiao as well.
     
  9. Just by his existence Pacquiao makes floyd show his ass almost every week.
    I cannot recall a fighter more into the head of another in recent history.
    If 2008-2012 was a round Pacquiao is up 10-8 and I hate to admit it.

    Umm Filipino politicians are next to corrupt in the dictionary. Why do you think the Phils have been at the bottom rung of the Asian ladder for eternity? Manny is perfect for the job.

    So now you're saying that Ferdinand Marcos = Manny Pacquiao? Does Jinkee own 47000 pairs of shoes?

    He may fear that his overall career will be knocked down a notch. That people will over-look how great he was at his best...130-140...and just go off of "what have you done for me lately" thinking.

    To many times we've seen Great Champions (during their peak/prime years)... hang around to long only to be discredited as "exposed" when in fact it was age/wear/tear that brought them down more than the opponent.

    There's no fighter out there that doesn't fear losing. It's their life/careers.

    Win loose or draw the fight wouldn't hurt his legacy.

    Having an 0 doesn't make you the greatest of all time.

    Is Rocky Marciano considered the best of all time? Joe Calzaghe the best of all time?
