Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Wants Mayweather Fight Pushed Further Back?

[jkaisen41]

what you dont get is that pacquiao had to move up from his natural weight. imagine him goin up 17 pounds to fight oscar in just 10 months. (You guys just see one side of the story where oscar was weight drained, which i believe he is, but it was his fault for picking on midget pacquiao instead of margarito) then he fought hatton who was still bigger than him and then cotto who was clearly bigger than him during fight night also. Mayweather went up 7 pounds to fight oscar at 154, i give him that, but he cherry picked hatton. He made hatton move up in weight and was clearly smaller than mayweather. And then 2 years later came up marquez who was already sluggish at lightweight and to add even more that he came in 2 pounds over the catchweight.

No... I don't see just one side... I'm with you... DLH was past it BUT that's not Manny's fault and again I'm not faulting him for that at all... everybody wanted DLH and it wasn't because he was the best... so I don't blame him at all... and even if somebody is past their prime you still need someone to beat it out of him... I give Pacquiao probs for that... and if I wouldn't respect him I wouldn't have said he is an all-time great IMO... and it sure isn't ONLY because he beat Cotto... I give him credit where credit is needed

BUT

you said and that was the thing that I tried to explain to you... he always fights the best... and that's simply not true... he always probably fought a bigger man but they weren't the best. This is simply what drives me crazy about it... that ppl always come up with he's fighting the best... he ain't... same goes out to Floyd...

He wanted to fight Hatton for a long time. Hatton ain't wanted no part dude... Hatton also fought at 147... it's clearly not his weight but he wasn't moving up into something complete new.

Marquez was the best at 135... he pretty much established it in two fights. He moved up two weight classes... it's a thing that Manny did, Mosley did it before... all in one fight... he now compaigns at 140. Of course you can make an argument about 147 is too much for him... but hey... the only thing that I'm mad about this fight is that May ain't made weight... that's unprofessional... and he not even apologized for it...

And again... I'm not bashing Pacquiao's record or anything but he ain't did something way more special then Mayweather did. And Pacquiao once was a Flyweight as he was very, very young... but as soon as he had real boxing training in the US... he pretty much was a real featherweight... even struggled to make weight sometimes... so what he did because of his body size and short arms against giants is really a great achievement... but he definitely ain't fought the best all the time. And that's ok... because nobody does actually... I could talk about others here as well... but like stated you have to be honest...

In the end I get what you mean and that's why I say until now... Floyd has all-time great skill and Pacquiao is an all-time great this is a difference and you should know through that that I see many things the same like you do... and yes, you can actually like May and Pacquiao... it's possible *lol*

Mayweather sould face Collazo or Quintana in the U.K. He should keep busy.

**** collazo.....id have more respect if floyd fights quintana......hope pac accepts the march date vs floyd tho.......

[boxingfan76]

I agree its a duck by pacman , until he proves otherwise! all this **** talking that mayweather is scared to fight him bla bla bla we all know who is scared no good reqason to not fight ! all this trouble and manny comes up with this bs? what the hell proving his critics right,never faces someone in their prime!!!!

[lcheezy]

fighters are not scared of each other but they do know when they can't beat somebody. pac knows that he can't beat pbf. thats why he's carrying on like this. like floyd said. pac is an image to a made up fighter and the so called guy to beat him but like all the rest.he's not the one.

[leonthegee]

Phuck Quintana and Collazo! Fight the winner of Mosley vs Berto.

either of those fighters wont be ready to fight before summer. floyd needs to find an opponent now.

[jrosales13]

either of those fighters wont be ready to fight before summer. floyd needs to find an opponent now.

Mosley has said he would be ready by April?

Yall are Crazy LOL , This thang is too big to hurry with!!

Mayweather needs time to prove himself with a viable Welterweight after his retirement !!

Manny is running for office to help his people !!!!!!!!!

If Manny was doing it for popularity he would need his head examined , LOL , we all know as a fighter he is loved by most around the WORLD NOW AS THE POUND 4 POUND KING OF THE WORLD !!!!!!!

Mayweather is just a fighter who has come out of retirement and so far done two things:

1. Run his mouth !

2. Fight a blown up featherweight but couldn't knock him out.

GIVE ME A BREAK !

Are you a boxer or a politician? Sign the damn fight or retire. This is the fight everyone wants to see and the two fighters owe it to the fans who pay their bills. If you don't do this fight then just leave the sport, goes for both guys. Sick of the bs of these two drama queens, moaning over a few million bucks while others in the world sc**** for their next meal.[/QUO
agree 100%. these 2 are acting like the world revolves around them. I hope they both retire so that they dont hold the boxing world hostage... at this point Im so sick of their BS after BS, I dont even care about the fight, probably wont even watch it... screw off

You know, I really can not call Mayweather a drama queen for this one. If Top Rank said they wanted a May 1st date and Floyd said done. Then Top Rank wanted a March 13th date and Mayweather said done??? How is Floyd providing the drama this time? The only thing Floyd has publicly said is that "Manny can't beat me under any circumstances" maybe Manny agrees with him. Some situations I can understand Floyd being labled a drama queen. But in this situation, I just can not see that being the case.
