Why did Floyd bring up his "health" in the first place in that interview?

    This section was LATER in the interview. They were DONE talking about split. When the interviewer asserted that Floyd "needed" Pac, like Ali needed Frazier, Floyd interjected.

    He spoke of Ali getting pushed into fights by the public (at the end of his career) that he didn't want to get into. Floyd reemphasized that they were fights he (Ali) didn't want to get into.

    He said Ali would trade those fights for his health.

    -----------------
    One would LOGICALLY assume that Floyd is insinuating that he is

    1) being pushed into a fight he doesn't want (how the **** does no one notice this)
    2) he is concerned that he will take some damage that will show at the end of his career/post career

    -----------------

    "Larry Holmes has lost to who he has lost to, SRR has lost to he has lost to, I'm in it to win it, inside and outside the ring, and my health is more important than anything."

    There's NO OTHER way to interpret this. :roll::patsch

    And he's said this DESPITE the fact that he's seen Pac have yet another close fight with JMM. He sees something and could possibly be trying to hide it

    He brought up health because he was engaged in a conversation.

    Its funny when Floyd states his case as to why he doesnt want to fight Pac, and his fanboyz try and decipher hidden messages in his words then twist and turn them. It is what it is. Floyd said that he must preserve his health and he wont be forced into a fight that might jeapordize his health the way Ali was.

    No, that's not what he said mother****er. You *******s deciphered some off the wall message from the interview, and said that Floyd was scared of Pacquiao. He told you he isn't afraid of any man. He told you he tried to negotiate with Pacquiao. He then said he won't be pushed into any fight because of what the fans want to see.
