Pacquiao: "Mayweather Is Good, But Not As Good As People Think"

No...don't get me wrong i have massive respect for Floyd's skills and accept he took risks earlier in his career but since he's been saying 'I'm the greatest of all time' he hasn't been stepping up. If he says this he's going to be judged according to his words.

If you're the GREATEST OF ALL TIME you don't fight someone two weight divisions below you. You fight someone two weight divisions ABOVE you.

 

...or at least the best available fighter at the time. yes, i agree with you.

 

lol, you want pac's thought in english? it's almost the same everytime he was interviewed by HBO after a win.

don't trust my translation but it was just a single tagalog word that matters in what he said. "tapang" which has a direct translation of "courage" but if you put it into context of what he was saying, he is actually talking of floyd's guts or balls. he questions it. "tapang ang pag-uusapan natin" means "let's talk about his guts" before that, he says in simple english, "he doesn't want to get hit." which i think is he actually means "floyd doesn't take to much risk."

 

yeah, he knows which is unripe.., ripe..,and over ripe!

 

yeah and before these last few fights hes been able to be outboxed and im just saying these past 3 fights havent changed my opinion of that. After the second marquez fight there were talks on this board that manny had started to slip a bit and from watching his prior fights I had to agree at the time. Theres a recent radio interview posted on youtube where freddie roach says he should have the final say on opponents because he knows what styles pac works well against and what styles dont suit him.
