    Good interview

    The interviewer actually asked some good questions there.

    I think all of his legal/financial troubles back home are more of a distraction than people are willing to admit. Stuff like that weighs heavily on the mind...even for world class professionals. It's difficult to stay 100% focused on training when things aren't squared away on the homefront.

    It's his own fault. Just like its Floyd's own fault he has a Villain Image, Pacquiao chose the Idiot only went to school until the 1st grade, innocent, doesn't know "What is a steroid", churchly image.

    True. You can only fake for so long. It must be hard for him to try and be all holy when you got hookers walking by him. :lol:

    I don't think Pac's confidence is down when it comes to getting in that ring. He is just going through a bunch of **** and its reality raining down on him. All those 100 yes men aren't going through tax issues, marriage issues, political bull****, and the fact that his money is being stolen from under his nose. He has to deal with it and its his fault.

    when you watch the video he talks about how he couldn't let Floyd rip him off by taking more than 50%. He has to set a good example as a congroidsman by intelligently handling business. all while bob arum is ripping him off at the same time:nut

    He looks/sounds disinterested and I can't blame him for it. Only fight that should/could bring him back to "life" per say is Mayweather because of all the money, attention and hype surrounding this fight. Even his own children want him to fight Mayweather.

    As long as Arum has options within his stable, he would rather risk Pacquiao against them than an outsider, especially an outsider he wholeheartedly dislikes. Not to forget that Mayweather is making it easier for Arum to turn his back with his own share of outrageous delusional demands.

    pacquaio on that interview: "he (mayweather) wants to take all the PPV"

    and *****s still thinks that it's pac's fault...

    so now pac is taking a high-risk low-reward fight. props to pac for still taking some huge challenge at this stage of his career and not only looking at those money fights.

    He said 50/50 only, not even 51/49, yet a few weeks ago he said he would be willing to take the smaller purse.

    Obviously, there is no intent in fighting Mayweather... Arum is not that much of a gambler these days...He makes sure most of his fighters win, even when they lose.
