Lost even more respect for MAnny after this win

They are still waiting for Floyd's ( ball/balls ) to reappear.

 

It's cause both JMM and Bradley passed on career high purses from Pac, so you go down the list.

 

I don't think Pac boxed beautifully tbh. He boxed well, but that was maybe 70% of what Pacquiao's got/had.

I've been thinking about this and tbh, I don't think he will really mentally recover and get the happiness and flair back in his boxing unless he gets to avenge that brutal KO to Marquez.

No matter what Manny says, that will mentally deflate him til he gets to put it right.

I think that's what was missing from his performance the other night. Couldn't put my finger on it at the time, but on reflection, listening to him post fight etc, I think that's simply what it is. He needs Marquez V, and a win to get it out of his system. He'll never forget that otherwise.

acting like a *****? :rofl

:hi:

 

I've always said and I maintain that with regard to Floyd vs Manny, and why the fight has not and maybe will not happen, it's a question of mentality. Of how you judge men.

Not how you judge boxing.

If you honestly believe that, of the two of them, it's Manny whose ego would be most affected by a loss on his record, and to whom this represents a bigger gamble, then honestly, I think you are naive.

Manny gets told who he will fight by his trainer. Nobody tells Floyd who he will fight because nobody could put Floyd in that position. If the fight isn't a definite win in his mind, he won't touch it.

I'd imagine from Roach's perspective, a Floyd fight priority list would go:

1. How much money can we make

2. How can/can we beat him.

For Floyd, it'd be the other way around.

I'm not saying he can't beat Manny, but that to this day, especially when Pacquiao was tearing up the divisions, Floyd never got a clear read on him.

If he did, believe me, I would put my life on it, he'd have taken the opportunity to show the world how easily he could deal with this new megastar of boxing, and in the process, cement his reputation and his legacy.

Floyd would never, ever, have missed an opportunity like that.

 

Wow... I've never seen that video of Floyd... but it speaks volumes.

He's basically saying Manny Pacquiao can't be real. His punching power, his ability to rip through fighters... there's got to be some mysterious power at work.... it must be drugs.

It's as glowing a review of Pacquiao's work as you could find on the planet. From the man himself. I don't know how any right minded person could argue Floyd actually wants any part of Pacquiao after watching that.

Believe me, when Pacquiao finally slides. When there are clear signs of weakness.... suddenly drugs won't be an issue. Guaranteed.

 

The problem is your ok with #1 and not wanting your guy to fight the best but who BOB ARUM says??

 

Lifetime ban bet, *****?
I post a video with Pac saying he's willing to fight Mayweather then you leave this forum for good?

Go on, I will wait for while you look for your balls. In the mean while, get Floyd's nuts of your mouth so you can go search for 'em balls.

 

So unless Pac calls out a guy, a guy that he has many times called out before, you lost respect for him? Pac stated exactly what reality is in that he will fight whoever his promotion company can make a fight happen with. He knows it pointless to say I want Floyd when the world already knows he does. The world also knows, at least intelligent people, that a fight with Floyd has a zero chance of happening because of the organization the two boxers belongs to. So Pac said the right thing because when it is all said and done his fight can and will only happens if the promotional companies come to term. If you are to stupid to see facts and think empty boasting and yelling makes a fighter then you need to stop watching boxing and watch WWE.

 

I have no problem with boxers letting the appropriate people do the matchmaking. That's what they are there for. Most boxers don't have the time or expertise to do it all themselves. There's no guarantee that the fighters promoter doesn't want them to fight the best. The Pacquiao/Mayweather fight failed to materialize years ago so I don't see why it would now so I don't expect Manny to call Floyd out. I don't see Floyd calling Manny out. I've seen articles quoting Mayweather saying he has no interest/wouldn't fight Pacquiao. This is just a hater thread.
