Was Pacquaio Mayweather's last chance?

It would have been one of his last chances to fight someone that would have captured the worlds attention and actually thought would be a tough fight for him at his weight class.

 

Pac was his last shot at a legacy defining fight. For now, all of his fights as a star have come against guys too small or too old. Some of that's Floyd's fault, some of it not; just like the Pac fight falling through.

 

He has no chance with haters. That's why they're called haters.

 

If he had taken on Pac in 2009-10 right after the Cotto or even the Margarito fight, he would get full credit for taking out a guy who looked invincible. No one he fought had that aura of invincibility, ever, not even Corrales. Beating Pac at that time would have done it. Now even Sergio martinez looks damaged. Unfortunate, floyd could have won that fight with Pac in 2009 or 2010 and been remembered as someone who beat the standout fighters of his generation. I would have given either of them credit.

Hopkins would have fought Pac twice by now if he were in Floyd's shoes.

 

Absoultley. He will be hated on discredited no matter who he fights

 

Haters gonna hate regardless.

"Yeah he beat a smaller Pac by running from him like a coward! Fight Sergio!" :twisted:

 

If he humiliated Pac who just cleaned house on Cotto, he would have gotten full credit. Does Ali get credit for beating Foreman? Hell yes he does.

 

respect and haters dont even go together man

 

That's not fair. Pac was looked at by boxing fans, the boxing media, and casual fans as an actual threat to Mayweather. There was a reason it was going to be the biggest fight in history. No matter what anyone says, it was going to be a 50/50 with the 2 best fighters of the past decade when they were both perceived to be at top form

 

mayweather waited all his threats out. He can redeem himself a little bit by fighting canelo.

 

Even Ali has his haters and it would be worse if he was around during message board days. **** on outta here.

 

they have an excuse everytime manny loses..look Jmm knocked him out cold and they are saying it was a lucky punch,morales beat him and they blamed the gloves,bradley beat him and they issued death threats to him..he was ko'd by 2 turnip farmers and they claim he was weight drained........you think they give floyd credit?

 

The 4th Marquez fight was Pacquiao's last chance to finally beat down a 40 year old bloated Juan Manuel Marquez and instead he got his ass knocked out cold and woken up with smelling salt.
