    Comparing his wins over Oscar against OScar's win over pac. Saying that he fought a fresher Oscar at a more dangerous weight with 10oz gloves at 154 and people said Oscar was shot. When Pac fought Oscar he did it to a drained Oscar with 8oz gloves and it's considered a great win.

    Same **** I've been saying as well.

    Everyone has a game plan until they get hit. -Joe Louis

    Manny Destroyed Hatton, Joy's gameplan or not.

    - been training for the past couple months with his uncle and feels great

    - the "vacation" he took gave his body a chance to heal & most of the fights he was going into recently ... he wasnt 100%

    - has been fighting since 1987 and boxing is very "Grueling" and he hasnt had a chance to rest since...

    - he never let himself go in retirement... his house isnt far from the gym and he was working out all along... "playing basketball"

    - he came back because of the fans and missed being aroudn the sport... he "thought" boxing was out of his blood but he had a lot of love left

    - while he was off he made over 10 million & his house only cost 6 million... so he is fine... "doesnt hurt to make a little more money"

    - oscar told jmm that floyd "doesnt hit hard & hates the jab" said oscar is a cool fighter but loses all his big fights and said oscar made him
    fight with heavyweight gloves so obviously it would seem like he doesnt hit hard... oscar doesnt hit hard either

    - rome asked if he is back to steal pacmans p4p status... floyd says hes not here to disrespect anybody and he knows what he brings to the sport... its a blessing to make 150 million $ in one hour... but the #'s speak for himself... his #'s are better than pacman

    -jim rome asks .. he is showing a lot of humility and class during the show... but at other times he brings fireworks and is wild... why is that? and floyds just saying he's with his mom and hes just chilling and knows what he brings to the sport... hes been aroudn for 27 years.. and knows what he is capable of

    -rome said he likes when floyd talks trash and who is going to do it when he is gone... floyd said his 16 year old nephew & 10 year old son are about to start

    -rome asks about the pacman fight but floyd said his main focus is jmm... he said he doesnt have to chase pacman and if the fight happens it happens... says he doesnt fight for bragging rights... he fights for checks... said how when i beat oscar he is over the hill and oscar called teh shots... but when pacman fights oscar at the wrong weight with 8 ounce gloves its an amazing win... said hatton just got caught cold and hatton didnt follow his fathers game plan who is a great trainer...when floyd beat hatton his career was supposedly over.... & when pacman beats him its an amazing win

    -rome said is the fight possible because neither fighter will chase one another... floyds response to that is #'s dont lie. and he wishes hatton pac & oscar the best



    thats it

    He really didn't talk too much ****. He said he doesn't fight for bragging rights he fights for checks.

    Floyd is too old and inactive to beat Pacquiao. Despite the styles advantage. Mark my words. Pacquiao wins a decision or late round stoppage.

    jim rome is now saying how he is surprised how humble floyd was and that he didnt take offense when jim rome asked if he needed to fight for the money

    rome is saying it will be extremely disappointing if they don't fight

    - rome is saying both guys create issues for each guy...and you HAVE to have that fight... and why come back if your not going to have that fight

    Difference is PBF doesn't let himself go like a lot of guys who are inactive not only that it's not like he's taken a lot of punishment in his career.

    A very thoughtful and respectful version of Mayweather during that interview. Either he just barely woke up, or the guy had other things on his mind right now.
