Its totally ironic that Money Mayweather could end up without a pot to **** in, if Manny sues him for the lot Would need to change his name to Moneyless Mayweather
completely one sided article. i think pacs best options are winner of mosely-berto, yuri for the otherwise meaningless title, or a rematch with jmm somewhere between 135 and 140. for floyd, the same first 2 plus margarito or williams for credibility and legacy.
Margo, Williams for Floyd ... never gonna happen. The risk vs the money is much to great for Floyd to even fathom this. I mean c'mon look how much there was at stake for Pac/Mayweather and he found away to get out of that!!?? Would be nice to see Floyd put his balls out there and make these fights, but he's got none ..
Mayweather didnt want to fight Pacquiao all along... Mayweather will fight Hatton for money. Pacquiao will fight Foreman for glory.
No doubt it's Manny's name and rep that's getting a brutal beatdown. The average person would definetly lean towards thinking he's guilty of using PED's after hearing that he's unwilling to do the tests because the average joe knows that if you're accused of something that isn't true and that's very damaging to your reputation(even if it doesn't have 40 million dollar pay day attached to) that you would do anything possible to shut peoples mouths and proove your integrity. If you polled people on the street and asked them "if an athlete is refusing blood tests for PED's would you suspect they've used them?" I bet an overwhelming majority would say yes. Also people used to think Pac was an upstanding christian citizen and now it's come out that he's had multiple afairs and a love child so his whole good guy act seems fake and if he's able to put on that act and have multiple affairs then who knows what other low life **** he might be willing to do...... Now I'm not saying these are my opinions cause they're not and I could give 2 shits if manny wants to **** around, I couldn't care less what a fighter does in his own time but it does ruin his image of being the Good guy of boxing that would never cheat or do anything unchristian. People have a hate for Floyd that clouds their judgement, if Pac was fighting anyone else and they asked for these test the boxing public would be a lot more pissed at team Pac but in this case Manny's kinda lucky cause he's fighting the most hated boxer possibly ever so even though he's getting his name and rep dragged through the dirt, the hate people have for Floyd is allowing many to side with Pac even though it's obvious to a 5 year that something's fishy in team Pac. Mayweathers name and rep was already dirt before this, he's already hated by most so it's definetly Pac who's taken a way huger blow to his image and rep.
Actually, with all these accusations, Pacquiao's rep is what has taken a hit, regardless of if he is innocent or guilty. It's like the Kobe Bryant situation...in all likelyhood, he didn't **** that chick, but the very fact the he got accused of it was enough to damage his rep. I'll admit that there is a somewhat vaild reason to think Pacquiao is on something, but personally, I don't think he is. I think the reasons people are accusing him are due to him being an a truly special fighter. An anomaly.
actually floyd did kill his own career at the very begining he came out of the olympics like ray leonard and oscar young, great smile, with untouchable skills, he had it all but throw it away. in stead of being a nice friendly guy that people could warm too he decided to play gangsta influenced by the modern world of hip hop he choose to act more like a rapper than a humble warrior and he tries to show off his everyday lifestyle like its a never ending rap video. and to that the fact that he's infatuated with his 0 and clearly afraid to consitantly take on all comers unlike his predecessors who had balls off steel and were actually very approachable guys you'll see the reason why the general public never liked floyd the way they liked ray and oscar. he had it all in the beginning but threw it away all because of his big ego
True true. The only time I ever liked Floyd is when he fought Judah. Judah is an even bigger dick than Floyd :yep
I think they both fukked their careers up. You can't bite the hand that feeds you (HBO and Time Warner) and cost them millions and millions of dollars because of childish bickering, and then expect to be rewarded down the road. HBO and Ross Greenberg aren't stupid. They know that Pacman/Foreman and Mayweather/Matthew Hatton won't sell shyt. In fact, on PPV those fights might barely break even. If HBO were smart, they would put their foot down and refuse to show Manny or Floyd's next fights and effectively force them to MAN UP and fight each other. Stop letting the damn inmates run the asylum!!!
I can't agree with the HBO calling the shots scenario. That would be a whole new can of worms right there. A huge political mess involving the networks. But I get what you are trying to say.
