Comments Thread For: Roy Jones: Pacquiao Leaves an Absolutely Marvelous Legacy, Will Not Regret Loss To Mayweather

[#1PaperChamp]

Roy must be punch drunk. Was it Mayweather who didn’t want random blood tests? Was it Mayweather who claimed he would faint if he gave some blood? Was it Mayweather who said he could do blood tests as long as it was more than 14 days before the fight? Pacquiao was a good fighter but why do people feel they have to blame Mayweather for Pacquiao’s deeds?

Roy very rarely (if ever) has positive things to say about Floyd. Dont think the two are on speaking terms

I know nobody watches fights in slow motion but… there are some good videos on YouTube that might change people’s opinion on that fight.

Roy seems not to know that Floyd agreed to a 50/50 purse split back in 2009, and that it was Pacquiao who avoided the fight just because of random drug testing.

It puzzles me that people refuse to see that Floyd's demands were never a fight blocker. On the contrary, we had Freddie, Arum, and Koncz playing peek a boo and gymnastic with the media, yet people over look this. Arriza came out and admit it was Pac's camp blocking the fight. Freddie said he wanted to see Mayweather's legs go first, and that he doesnt like putting Pac into fights he is not certain Pac can win.

Roy just hating because a) Mayweather made way more money, and b) HBO fell because Mayweather left! The sad part is that it was NOT Pacquiao who said he was scared of needles, it was NOT Pacquiao who said he would faint, and couldn't take a blood test less than 14 days from the fight, it was Bob Arum! Arum was the one who did all the talking! Arum was the one said "We need an outdoor stadium, etc.!" Arum was the one who had Manny signing fake contracts! The person to blame for all that BS was Arum! Manny was a great fighter, but not the sharpest knife in the drawer! Thank God he & Floyd met up in Miami! Wasn't long after that Manny left TR, and went to PBC! Sometimes our hate is misplaced!

Ironically the ones who make the biggest deal out of that loss are Pac fans themselves. They shamelessly try to pretend that everyone else is blind and argue that Pac deserved to win a fight that he clearly lost. The loss shouldn’t taint his legacy but Pac fans still can’t live with it till this day. It’s quite pathetic.

Could’ve closed the thread after this.

Only the very worst pac fans can’t accept Floyd beat him.

The crazy part is they all argue losses aren’t a big deal, then they follow Manny by making excuses when he loses.

The Pac haters in here must be young, ignorant punks. Otherwise they would realize Pacquiao was one of the best P4P in history. Yes it is true. Sorry to inform you. ha ha

AT that time, Who is Mayweather to demand anything. They were both at the top, so why would any one of them want to concede anything.

They both made demands.

Mayweather agreed to Pacquaio’s demands, Pacquaio didn’t agree to Mayweather’s.

No, it's Floyd fans trying to make out unbeaten records is what people respect is akin to lieing. Ignoring what a fighter does to keep unbeaten record is lieing to yourself.
Floyd fans should accept everyone loses and it's how you comeback which is what interests fans

Thats one way to look at it.

You can also say Floyd didn't agree to the cutoff date for blood testing.
