Mayweather: "Marquez Called Me Out, Pacquiao Didn't"

If PBF is "such" of BIG draw, how come he only had a 150 fans at the PBF-Hatton Weight-In and Hatton had close to 5,000 who flew from the UK yet PBF lives and trains in Vegas? I dont ****ing get that.....:huh

I think most people tend to get it wrong when it comes to draw power regarding PBF but Im not saying he doesnt draw people though, because he does but not like everyone thinks.

 

There is a double standard here. Floyd has moved up in weight and fought bigger guys. remember he started @ 130. Further more for those of you who cliam that marquez is a easy fight for PBF, why wasn't he a easy fight for pacman?!! If he gave Pacman so much trouble and is easy for PBF then it's logical to conclude that Pacman wil be easy for PBF as well. In this case styles don't make fights because Marquez style is more simular to PBF"s than to Pacman's. PBF being so much bigger than Marquez, and faster, and better defensively should be able to use Manny's aggression against him and score a Hatton like KO!

 

I'm laughing at all the Cotto and Shane fans who have the motha****in audacity to talk **** about Floyd....


I ain't no Floyd fan, you guys know that.


But damn! Floyd ain't no worse than these other guys when it comes to Petey. No worse.

I wish boxing wasn't just always about money all the time. I wish fighters cared at least as much about glory and legacy and fighting the very best out there. Sadly, it can never be.

 

Being a draw depends on FANS AT THE WEIGH IN? And how do YOU manage to get an accurate number of Floyd fans at the weigh in? ESB these days.

 

Who cares about the weigh in? The fight itself sold out in under an hour and did over $10 million at the gate. No other active fighter is gonna do those numbers.

 

The only problem that I have with PBF making these comments now is that it seemed to premedidated and convinient for him to announced the Marquez fight just hours before the Pac-Hatton fight, why didnt he wait until sunday to make up his mind. **** he could had waited till sunday and choose to fight Pac thus giving US the fans the fight we want to see because lets face Marquez may be a challenge but we all know how that fight will play out....

 

:goodMe too but that's NEVER been how the sport works.

 

Floyd makes some good points.

 

The big paydays usually come in the fights that the people want to see the most. Oscar was famous for simply picking out the fight that made him the most money. That also resulted in him fighting a lot of really good fighters.

 

and when was this???

 

Pacman fought Oscar for the same reason Floyd did money. He move up in weight just like Floyd as well. Oscar did not have to lose weight for Floyd like he did for Manny and Oscar was more dangerous when he fought Floyd than when he fought Manny. Now Manny's calling the shots and everyone will have to come down to meet him. Well if that's not the pot calling the kettle black!

 

Yes, correct, NONE OF THE WW'S will fight him. PERIOD.

 

Pac wasn't going to fight against until November or December anyway. So Floyd could've went after Pac right away and fought him in Nov after an almost 2 year layoff, or he could fight an interim bout in July and then take on Pac in Nov or Dec. I don't see the problem.
