Yes, Gayweather had plenty of excuses to not fight 2008-2009 Pac.

In 2009 the risk was above 40%. He could actually get hit.

Floyd schooled him when they fought. I’m a Pac fan, was rooting for him that night but Mayweather proved he was the superior fighter.

I disagree.

Floyd showed he was good at hugging, running and surviving. There was no fighting going on to be the superior fighter.

Oscar's losses at welterweight were better efforts.

All three judges and most other observers felt otherwise.

It'll still draw - it's Floyd. But, it's one step closer the exhibition cash cow becoming redundant.

The number of buys for fights like this will continually drop, until people finally realize it's not actually worth it.

Until then, if you're buying this trash, then you're part of the problem.

Fight was a dud and certainly didn't prove anything

It was worse than Floyd vs Baldymir

Paquiao isn't having this exhibition, Gayweather is.

Pacqiao literally just fought a Korean YouTuber. Did you miss that? Here’s the YouTube link for you

In the end, Floyd won the fight and record books will ALWAYS show that. Meanwhile, Pacqiao has 8 losses including spectacular knockout losses.

A Pacquiao that fought with a bum shoulder and had already been through many wars including a KO loss. Gayweather was terrified of 2009 Pacquaio.

Pacqiao also had “bum” calves when Ugas beat him.
When Marquez destroyed him, it was a “lucky” punch.
When Morales beat him, PAC “avenged” that loss.
When Bradley beat him, it was a “robbery”
When Horn beat him, it was a “robbery”

So PAC has never lost.

It’s just not comparable. It was a nonsense comparison.

Joe Louis had well documented financial problems. The vast majority of fighters from that era did. It’s another reason that comparison is so ******.

Whichever way you want to spin it, seeing a great like Floyd associate himself with these clowns is embarrassing. It’s embarrassing for him and for the sport.

So financial problems absolve Joe Louis from fighting nonsensical exhibition fights?
Joe Louis fought army guys and got paid. Seeing a great like Louis associate himself with those clowns was embarrassing.

You can spin it anyway you want, broke or not, Floyd is making money just like Louis did.

Lastly, what will you say when Pacqiao fights 5 more exhibitions?

Yeah he needed the money. Floyd doesn’t.

I think it’s sad if Pac keeps going too. I’m not like you fanboys, I’m consistent. All you idiots do is relate everything to Pac just like the Pac fans relate everything to Floyd- it’s absolutely pathetic. It’s 2023 you guys need to let it go.
