Pacquiao: "If Mayweather Gets Past Ortiz, We Can Fight"

Good morning BoxingScene. Today should be fun.

Pacquiao happy with Floyd’s decision to fight Ortiz in Sept. MANILA, Philippines — Floyd Mayweather is making a ring comeback, something the pound-for-pound king believes is a sign they are destined to face each other in 2012. “That’s good,” Pacquiao told the Bulletin as soon as his plane landed in General Santos City late Wednesday afternoon from Manila when told about Mayweather’s decision to come out of retirement. Mayweather is scheduled to face Mexican-American Victor Ortiz for Ortiz’s World Boxing Council welterweight crown on Sept. 17 possibly at Cowbiys Stadium in Dallas, Texas, and Pacquiao thinks the choice of Ortiz as opponent is a no-brainer. “Ortiz is a southpaw like me so I think Mayweather is preparing (to get used to a lefthander),” said Pacquiao, who is itching to get the chance to bang with the former holder of boxing’s most coveted mythical title. And while Pacquiao is looking forward to a megabuck matchup with Mayweather, the Filipino star said Ortiz, a 24-year-old knockout artist, is not to be taken lightly. Told about the possibility that he and Mayweather will finally get to trade power punches, Pacquiao said Ortiz’s style and youth pose dangers. “If he gets past Ortiz (then we can fight).” Like Mayweather, Pacquiao is also penciled to see action as he is booked to meet Juan Manuel Marquez of Mexico for the third time on Nov. 12 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The 34-year-old Mayweather hasn’t fought since posting a lopsided decision over Shane Mosley in May 2010. While Mayweather has been dormant, Pacquiao has been pretty active through the years, facing just about anybody put in front of him. Efforts to stage a Pacquiao-Mayweather super fight have failed twice over the issue of random drug testing and purse split. Now that Mayweather has decided to come out of his shell, it certainly looks like he is looking beyond the Ortiz bout. http://www.mb.com.ph/articles/321841/pacquiao-happy-with-floyd-s-decision-fight-ortiz-sept

Since this is a hate Pacquiao thread, I want to post an article here for everybody to read especially the part which confirms Manny's acceptance to Floyd's demand ( Floyd, instead of fighting, announced he is leaving boxing). This is an information in which all Floyd fans are having such difficulty to accept and remember. They are all suffering from organized amnesia everytime this information is discussed. All articles and videos are available regarding this topic if these Floyd fans will only click their mouse(s), but I think they rather not. Pacquiao’s lawsuit will go forward and Mayweather fans will finally face the truth Monday, April 4, 2011 By Superstar Billy Graham Those who are following this drama between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr, know the whole story about the unsubstantiated accusation and allegation made by GBP (Golden Boy Promotions) and the Mayweathers that Manny Pacquiao is taking performance enhancement drugs. We also know the lawsuit filed by Manny Pacquiao suing GBP, Floyd Mayweather Jr, Roger Mayweather, and Floyd Mayweather Sr of slander and defamation of character, accusing Manny Pacquiao of taking PEDS/Steroids without a single shred of proof. The courthouse document was filed by Manny Pacquiao’s lawyer Daniel Petrocelli, for those who are not familiar with Daniel Petrocelli, he was the lawyer who won the civil case against OJ Simpson. This is the court documents filed by Daniel Petrocelli and the law firm.http://www.courthousenews.com/2011/03/29/boxing%20defamation.pdf Those who say Floyd Mayweather Jr was misquoted, or has never said out blatantly that Manny Pacquiao is taking PEDS and Steroids, are in complete denial because there is so much evidence. From numerous videos and articles quoting the Mayweathers slandering Manny Pacquiao, it will totally suffocate the Mayweather’s defense. When it will finally go to court, Floyd fans will finally hear the truth about their fallen hero. A great boxer who has issues in using common sense. Manny Pacquiao fans, and The Superstar have been steadfast from the beginning. The Mayweathers have no right to discredit and slander Manny Pacquiao of taking PEDS and Steroids without one shred of proof. Floyd fans will contend to say “simply take the test to prove you’re clean,” or quoting one of Floyd Jr’s many lack of real thought comments, “why would anyone turn down a $25 million drug test unless they are hiding something”. But lets dissect that particular quote “why would anyone turn down a $25 million drug test”. First off, nobody is turning down a $25 million drug test, this is a fight not a drug test. The Superstar has never heard of a $25 million drug test, has anyone? Lets deal with the truth, it is what it is, a $25 million mega fight. The blood test Floyd is demanding is not required by the NSAC, it is clear Floyd Jr is using this to imply Manny Pacquiao is a cheater. But according to many Floyd Jr fans, why would Manny turn down blood testing unless he is hiding something. Now, that itself is very inaccurate. Manny NEVER turned down blood testing even though he is not required to or comply according to the NSAC policy. Manny originally agreed to do blood testing a week before the announcement of their fight, and then 24 days changed to 14 days before the fight and finally another right after the fight. Also included in the drug testing were unlimited urine testing at will and all the way up to the fight. Does that sound like someone who is trying to hide something? At that time it was an unprecedented drug test no other fighter has ever taken. And then on the second attempt to make this mega fight, Manny Pacquiao agreed to all of Floyd’s drug testing demands and the result was Floyd Mayweather Jr announcing on early June of 2010, he will leave the sport of boxing in order to focus on his gym and his foundation. We all know the real truth, this is another tactic Floyd Jr will use to duck Manny Pacquiao. The same tactic he used to duck Antonio Margarito, Miguel Cotto and a rematch against Oscar De La Hoya. Floyd fans insist a simple blood test will erase what Floyd Mayweather, and his henchmen have said about Manny, but they have already irreparably damaged Manny’s reputation. Pacquiao fans and The Superstar have insisted accusing another athlete of cheating is absolutely the worse thing they can do. It will damage their reputation that may follow them even after their career from the sport is over. Taking a simple test is not that simple, it doesn’t cure anything. It will not reverse the damage it has done. In fact the damage has been done. Floyd fans need to put themselves in Manny Pacquiao’s shoes. Let’s take as an example, a manager of a company has an axe to grind to a fellow peer and accuses that person of stealing without one shred of proof. This manager announced that this person is stealing from the company and all that person has to do to prove their innocence is too take a polygraph test or more commonly known as a “lie detector test”. Would that person or anyone in their right mind comply to that demand? More important, would you comply to that demand? After all it is a simple lie detector test. The answer is “NO”!! There is no way anyone or anybody will comply to that. In fact what the accused will do is one thing, seek their attorney and then go from there. Nobody will just “simply comply to the test” or bend in anyone’s will. NOBODY. They will do what Manny Pacquiao and many others who feel their rights have been violated and trampled, they will seek their attorney. For those who say “I’ll take the test”, are lying. The first thing that will come to their mind is they have been unjustly accused and he or she will seek advice from their attorney on what actions to take. Manny Pacquiao simply complying to Floyd Mayweather’s demands after he and his family blatantly slandered him of taking PEDS and Steroids, is not something Manny or anyone would expect or comply to do. There is a big lesson here to learn, and Floyd fans really should pay close attention. Nobody has the right to accuse anyone of any wrong doings unless they have solid evidence. Or else face the consequences. To do so is reckless and irresponsible behavior. Something Floyd Jr is good at. Now it seems Floyd Jr is in trouble again with the IRS, owing over $3 million. Instead of focusing on his foundation or his gym like he said in the video above, he is out gambling big money and posting his winning tickets on his Twitter and Facebook pages. Something the IRS has been monitoring closely thanks to Floyd’s addiction for attention. Well, that’s another story. Got an Opinion? Submit Your Articles and Press Releases to be posted on NowBoxing.com *Please refrain from leaving any Racist, Profane or Derogatory comments* I know DAMN well you didn't just use an article from Superstar Billy Graham! haha What a complete joke! That clown used to post over on CBS sports.com boxing forum all the time, absolute moron. Good try though dude:)

I know....Truth hurts. It does. So much so he wrote a novel to cover it up. He's better off just offing himself :lol1:

if you take the test pacman THE TEST!!! WHY HE NEVER TALK ABOUT THE TEST? WHY THEY NEVER ASK?? Any reporter that asks Manny any real questions about testing will lose his/her credintials. If you notice the argument is still the same "Will you agree to all the testing, no cut offs?" If Manny says yes to this question, Bob/Freddy always has a different answer. Or they will wave it off by saying something like "The testing is not an issue" but they never really answer the question clearly. They leave room to wiggle

Whoever wrote this should kill himself. I know....Truth hurts.

How about Pacman gets Mayweather if Pac gets by JMM?:boxing:

Sure pacroid. get over your "fear" of needles first and excessive talking about Floyd only after you have a fight signed. Pactards are the only ones who believe the constant lies that come out of your mouth haha... you want him to take the test because he's too good to be believable? haha... first time i've heard this testing zhit i said, wow, princesss floyd must be very impressed..... lol. keep on perpetuating this take-the-test nonsense, homie. it just makes pac so phucking good.. haha... what else could it mean.....lol.

It's sad when u log onto a boxing website and there's more talk about drug testing then there is boxing. Our sport is really fuked up c/s.. Similar to baseball, IMO. I remember all the talks about steroids, illegal supplements, failed tests and legal documents did to the sport. It was great watching Sosa-McGwire or Clemens' dominance on the mound, but for what? Palmeiro was such a great guy who many thought couldn't do such a thing then he gets caught. Former MVPs like Giambi, Miguel Tejada and A-Rod have all been caught. If only boxing could take the necessary steps like baseball did and clean this up. It's not like we haven't had our fair share of athletes fail tests before. It's time for them to step up and take charge.

What he means by that is: "If Mayweather gets past Ortiz, we can fight." As in Pacquiao vs Ortiz. For real?? Well if thats the case then no thanks.

Uh Bob is the boss not Pacquiao. After Floyd destroys Ortiz Bob will match Pacquiao against Ortiz

It's sad when u log onto a boxing website and there's more talk about drug testing then there is boxing. Our sport is really fuked up

What he means by that is: "If Mayweather gets past Ortiz, we can fight." As in Pacquiao vs Ortiz. This^^ .

pac has agreed to the test, he has said it on live tv as has arum only thing left is for floyd to find his balls

what I don't get is... Manny has publicly said that he'd take the tests even between rounds!...yet floyd and his followers are saying to take the tests... so whats the hold up?? Because saying and doing are 2 different things, just because he said it doesn't mean he'll do it.

Pac should implement OST in his fight with Marquez and show the world what the real hold up is. He could have just come out before signing the fight with JMM and replied to Mayweather saying "take the test, we got a fight".

Pac should implement OST in his fight with Marquez and show the world what the real hold up is.
