    Funny thing is... Most Pac haters give him **** for taking "easy fights", claiming Cotto, Hatton, Margarito, Oscar, Clottey and Mosley were mismatches.

    But Floyd Sr. seems to be very impressed of Pac, to the point he can´t believe he´s natural.

    I can´t stand the Mayweathers, and I believe the´re scared to death of Pac. But sincerely, the only way I can see this being settled, is Pac taking the tests. I hope the Golden Boy-Top Rank settlement solves everything.

    You could be right about the political stunt, but as far as Manny winning (if it's legit)....He deserves to win, and will win. You can't slander somebodies name like this, and tarnish there legacy with no proof of anything. I know a lot of people don't pay attention to the Mayweather's, but fact still is that Mayweather's are trying to destroy Pac verbally. You can't do that to anyone, and Manny has every right to this case.

    BTW: Sr. is astonished with Pac. If SR. were the one training him he'd be saying how he's got the best fighter in the world. I do find it funny he calls him the littlest man...Not like Manny is Featherweight knocking out WWs

    And with Pac's money, do you really think that Pac's lawyers didn't study the case first before filing the case? :patsch

    Mot too mention Arum was a pretty damn good lawyer back in his day, too. These guys can just taste the $.

    If Pacquiao didn't have a chance in hell at winning, GBP would have never issued a formal public apology.

    It's funny how the mind operates for those who are desperately trying to make sense out Floyd's own words vs his actions. They can't figure what to go with...:lol:

    Is PAC an example of a boxing creation of well thought out matchmaking and guidence where he has the most impecible timing where he catches ALL of his opponents on "Bad days" where PAC is able to DOMINATE like no one else has ever done to them before.... OR...is PAC on the "A SIDE" and destroying and dominating these bigger men b/c the Phillipines have the best drugs out there.:rofl:huh

    He really does think highly of Pac. Despite what his intentions were, that's a hell of a compliment to give a fighter.

    I don't see how one has to be separate from the other. Its not nessesarily that Pac took easy fights but he did choose many bigger guys who A looked less then stellar in there previous fights and B all fight a particular style that suits Pac. That alone though does not explain how he could still just destroy all of them and not have one single close fight.

    hypothetically selecting specific opponents can allow him to compete, steroids on top of that can bring him to the level above that which would allow him to destroy them.

    Again i'm not saying this is the case, only that the comment about selecting easy opponents and Pac taking steroids are not automatically segregated.

    I wish Floyd Sr. was intelligent enough to express how he feels without coming off as so ignorant...however, my take on the situation is that he feels that Pacquiao is potentially cheating because he is very small and beating up much much bigger fighters, and not only that but he is dominating these fighters in a manner which they have never been dominated. That raises a red flag (in his eyes as well as others), and he doesnt want his son to fight a man who is potentially (in his eyes) on steroids. He has also expressed similar concern about not wanting his son to fight Chico Corrales.

    Daniel Petrocelli's a badass..

    Now, let's see this to its conclusion. Brace yourselves then (specifically that Crackhead clan). :deal

    I therefore conclude that Floyd Sr. is too scared of Pacquiao.

    Fair enough. Let's assume Floyd and Manny sign to fight with the full testing Floyd has demanded. Based on what Sr. has said, what happens if none of the tests leading up to the fight come back positive? Would you expect Floyd to go through with the fight and potentially be facing the same Manny? I don't think they are confident that Pac would be a different fighter after OSDT. Clearly they are not interested in fighting Pac if he's accomplished everything naturally.

    Yeah, I dunno if he really believes what he is saying, or if he is just trying to make his case.

    This

    The May weather's are very very proud, they will never apologize or take anything back.....They may lose the suit, pay out the ass, but they will never concede or admit defeat.

    You cannot have it both ways. You just can't. I pity you if you really believe what you wrote here. :-(

    Freedom of speech if Mayweather Sr. wants to call the President names he can do that too. I love the U.S.A...
