Mayweather Jr v Pacquiao (2009)

Pimp & MVC What a tag team together lol

 

Pac had surgery on his torn rotator cuff It was Floyd who was miraculously "cured" after the Castillo 1 fight

 

This was years after pac turned down pbf the first time and ducked him because of testing. The time was right because the fight should have happened already and they were finally able to get over their differences that's what he was saying. Not how you and other haters try and spin it like he was scared to fight pac for years. What's funny is pbf agreed to fight him back in 2009 yet it was pac who didbt agree.

 

Uh huh.

Second round of negotiations, Floyd walked away as confirmed by Ross Greenberg of HBO at the time when the fight was close.

Floyd said that Pac had to leave Arum for the fight to happen.

Floyd said that Ali fought guys he shouldn't have fought.

Floyd said that Ward shouldn't fight Kovalev.

Floyd said that Canelo shouldn't fight Golovkin.

Floyd said that he's not letting Davis fight Lomachenko and to criticize him for picking the opposition.

You don't see a pattern, dummy?

 

My original point stands when both were closest to their primes it was pac who ducked because of testing period. After that they both were full of **** and messed things up but the 1st time it was pac.

All of that other stuff is irrelevant and has nothing to do with pbf-pac.

 

Just like Roy Jones and Bernard Hopkins, eh?

 

Around 2010-2012 I leant more towards manny but as it dragged out longer I thought mayweather would take it when it finally got made.

So yeah maybe result would have been different back then.

"Shane Mosley couldn't knock down Cotto but he could?!" — FMJ

 

The fact Mayweather-McGregor got made shows you Floyd could have had the Pacquiao fight made whenever he wanted.

That said, I’d still favor Mayweather.

 

A special fighter against weight drained shop worn opponents who just got their shid kicked in their previous fights.....

FMJ beats Pac at ANY weight at ANY time in their respective careers.

If you go life and death against two Mexican brawlers with a chin you aint beating FMJ.........if Marquez would ever have a ounce of brain and boxed like after the knock downs of Fight 1 he would have won without much fuss.

In 09 there is a good chance Pac gets laid out because of his reckless lunging in.......FMJ would have a field day with his straight right ......you cannot miss Pac with the straight right even if you tried.

Pac has fast feet but poor footwork, he would never be in position to go to work ....replay of the actual fight and after Pac tasted a couple of rights he got gun shy.....in 09 he was not gun shy yet and FMJ would bounce right hand after right hand of him until he either backs off or takes a nap a la Marquez.

 

I dont think anyones posted this question on here before. Great question. We`ll need time to really think about it as its never crossed our mind.

 

Pac would have beaten Floyd like a Pitbull on a ToyPoodle !
That's why Floyd ducked him then...

 

Great analysis
