Floyd Mayweather’s Disrespect of Pacquiao is Nothing New

[krispy kreme]

I agree to some extent. But that does not mean that what Floyd said was false. Does he hand pick his opponents? Yes, we all don't like it but it is what Floyd does. Was Hatton hand picked? I remember people talking about how he was going to destroy Floyd, how it would be like Castillo, just at 147. Then when Floyd beat his ass people said, oh well you know Ricky cannot fight at 147 anyway, look at the collazo fight. Floyd can never win with some people. So **** it, I say he should continue doing what he is doing.

Also, your point is kind of moot; it still does not mean that Floyd is not in a higher class than Pac Man. Floyd is clearly smaller than Margo and Clottey so its understandable that he would not take those fights. I think he should fight Cotto and Pac Man.

Then I must have been one of those who saw Hatton would get outclassed by Mayweather, after watching just a few fights. And you guys are jumping to conclusions with my post, assuming that mean Pacquiao is a better fighter than Floyd. That's not what I mean, Floyd is still the more complete and highly skilled fighter.

He couldnt stay at LW. YOu have to remember that back then Floyd felt that he was getting used by Arum & HBO. He said that he had a slave contract, he was a top notch fighter but never ever got on PPV, he felt that he wasnt being promoted the right way or like how Arum was doing the latin fighters, and he felt that Arum got way too much money when Floyd was the one doing the fighting. Its funny how Floyd only was able to get the Gatti fight on PPV when he let it be known that this would be his last fight with Arum. Oscar said that he would never fight Floyd but as soon as he left Arum, then he soon got the fight. Basically he had to chase Oscar to get the big fight and he still may heve never done it if he wasnt being used in the 1st place.

I dont buy that money stuff when it comes to those other guys. He wont fight them because he thinks there too big. I think he feels like me in that he's the better fighter and could win but he also has a chance of losing and he doesnt want to be one of those guys who lose just to lose. If he loses then he wants it to be because someone was better then him, not just because they were just too big for him to beat. He would never forgive himself if he lost like that and that is his fear. I also totally disagree about Cotto. Cotto is much bigger then Floyd. He much natrually bigger & stronger. Dude comes into the ring at 162 pounds. Dont get fooled by the Margarito fight. He's fought guys way bigger then Floyd and made them look like kids in the ring with his size & strength. Most think Mosley is clearly bigger, stronger, and more powerful then Floyd and Cotto made him look small and weak in the ring with him. You have to remember that this is WW. Ive always said that if Cotto had stayed at 140 then I could truly see Floyd fighting him but its a totally differnent fight at WW. Even at 140 Cotto was clearly way bigger but at WW he got even bigger while Floyd only gained 4 pounds.

Just look at the quotes from people and that tells you the story. You already saw what I wrote about what Williams & Cintron said. Manny Steward always rips Floyd but then in the next sentence he will say that he doesnt think anyone will beat Floyd except a huge WW. Thats basically saying that you only think he will lose because a guy is too big for him, not that there better. He and alot of others say dumb stuff like Floyd is good but he should never be compared to SRL or Hearns. I said why? When people say that kind of stuff its clear that there just thinking of those guys at WW when they were huge and Floyd now at WW but thats not a fair comparison. Floyds at his 4th weight and doesnt even belong there while they were huge WW's in there 1st class. I say that a better comparison is them at WW vs Floyd at 130. Doesnt he easily hold his own then? He's equally as good if not better and on top of that he moved up in weight way better then those guys ever did. Its like people think of those guys fighting eachother and they say that they will kill Floyd. Maybo so but its only a weight thing. You cant say that in a P4P sense because Floyd is as much of a beast at his natural weights as they are at there's and he's better at higher weights then they are but you cant take there best & strongest weight and compare it to his worst and weakest weight.

Hatton's team said before the Floyd fight that they wouldnt fight anyone else at WW but they will fight Floyd because he isnt a true WW and they beleive Hatton is naturally bigger & stronger. Arum & Roach just said that they wont let Pac fight the other WW's but they will let him fight Floyd because Pac is basically the same size. You rip Floyd but look at Pac. He just fought oscar but he wont fight Margarito or anything. Why? Its the same reason why Floyd fought Oscar but wont fight them. How can you talk about Floyd not taking chances and fighting big guys? Thats what he's been doing but that doesnt mean he should just be ****** about it. Ill say it again, people sweat these other guys but its not fear. Pac has fought great guys but there all his size and most of the time there smaller. Its the same for all those guys you named at WW. Floyd was doing the same thing when he was fighting Chico and such but he moved up. Still, he could go down to 140 right now, Kill Pac, Bradley and whoever. Then I bet he could still go to LW right now and destryoy JMM, Diaz, Campbell and all them because there his real size.

Its just like his fighting style. People rip his style of pot shotting and moving alot while not throwing any combos. Im like, dont you see what it really is? He's just fighting big guys now that its hard to keep off him so he has to fight like this. If he goes down to his natural weights at LW & 140 then he will be walking those guys down, throwing mad punches, going toe to toe, and having alot of KO's but no one wants to see that. Why? He will still be in his 2nd or 3rd weight class while all the guys you name are really in there 1st and there huge at that weight. Its just not fair comparisons.

Sorry bro, but I can't bother reading all these long ass paragraphs you keep writing at 5 in the morning, because you keep saying the same thing. You believe Mayweather doesn't want to fight because these guys are naturally bigger, I get you, that's all you need to say.

Good post and basically I've said everything you have said about word for word but if people dont like you(in this case Floyd), they will see what they want to regardless if they know the truth in their heart. Basically the ones who dont like Floyd will not recognize nor acknowledge these facts and the ones who like Floyd see them as indeed fact and common sense for the most part. I've found you can post truth and common sense till the cows come home and it won't make a difference when you're dealing with certain people. What you have written is common sense, but common sense isnt common, if it was we would all have it.

[QUOTE=DLT;4511671] We always talked about how Cotto never fought anyone close to his size so the Margarito fight will be a shock to him. Cotto makes Floyd look like a little boy and Margarito made Cotto look like a boy in the ring but yet people want to force Floyd to fight Margarito? It makes no sense.

Im not against your post but i think Cotto and Mayweather are almost have the same height...

Anyway, mayweather is really a good fighter in terms of his defense... Its just but okey to say something against another fighter especially if he will really show it come fight night... More so if his fight is so exiting... Well mayweather's style is really awesome becuase he knows how to avoid punches... I dont blame floyd technique if it is somehow boring for others but the point is, His style made him who he is...

Being a boxing fan is far more different from being a boxer fan

[Flawless.]

Mayweather is right

[squealpiggy]

When Pac beat MAB, Floyd was the biggest guy in the crowd

Floyd is like four feet high. The only reason he was the biggest guy in the crowd is that pinoys and mexicans are only three feet high. They are very wee.

[Puntoyhauf]

lend me your minds a bit here.

I think it's just PBF's style to disrespect guys or trashtalk out of the ring.
I don't like PBF before his fight happens because he talks to much.
But inside the ring he's a real gentleman and respects the fighter in-front of him.

What I've noticed is that PBF trashtalks someone he's interested to fight.
So, I really think a Mayweather Jr-Pacquiao fight may happen. It's just a matter of time.

I just haven't seen or heard PBF disrespected Margarito... (so what does it all mean?)

May spoke truth.jmm beat manny imagine what may would do

You're living in the past buddy...

If you can talk the talk than walk the walk, Mayweather. Talk is cheap.

Mayweather Hating's been played out for years...and guess what?....even in retirement, HE'S playing YOU.

LOL


Some words of advice to you amateurish sheep......be original....be innovating...hate a fighter no one expects you to hate....like Alfred Angulo or Glen Johnson....
