Winky Wright and ****m Richardson Talk about Pacquiao/Mayweather

[sceneboxing]

did he outweigh them by 20 lbs?

Exactly, there was no point to that comment he made.

[apokalips]

I agree with Naz. Cotto kept saying that he was bigger and stronger. That was the same mistake that Hatton made against Floyd. Ricku swore that he was gonna be able to manhandle Floyd the way that Cotto thought he would outmuscle Pac.

Ricky didn't learn from his mistake of thinking he was stronger than Floyd, so he kept going on about how he'd manhandle Manny too and it culminated in that stunning knockout. I honestly can't get enough of that knockout, but one thing that pissed me off was the English commentators saying how Manny shouldn't celebrate cos Ricky was still down. If it was the other way round they'd be spittin on Manny's grave.

Anyway Brother Naazim knows his stuff I always enjoy seein what he has to say and hopefully Roger says the same to Floyd, although despite what he says I don't think Floyd would ever underestimate Pacquiao...Floyd's all about business he would want to bring his A game against ANY opponent, because he's a clever fighter and knows what happens when fighters get complacent.

damn, naz exposed pacman secret

any no worries... floyd always think his the bigger man anyway because of fighting smaller man most of the time

Smaller men like whom? Apart from Marquez. How much did Hatton weigh on fight night?

Brother ****m Richardson:

Oh, I don't mess with that stuff man. Now in the last couple fights they asked me to pick. I called them and I picked the right guy. But my thing is this man: Everybody at this level can fight, everybody is special up at that level. So your queen can't do more than my queen, your rook doesn't move in a way my rook doesn't move. It's going to be the strategy employed that makes the difference

Now, I'm gonna tell you, though. From Floyd's perspective: the minute you start talking about how small Pacquiao is, you're beat. I told Shane, "if you fight him, if anybody in the camp calls you bigger than Pacquiao, I'll put them out of the camp."

Because that's just media ****. Every time they mention Pacquiao they mention he started at 106 lbs. Well, hot damn, all of us at one time were under 25lbs! I got up to be over 300 lbs, but one time I was under 25 lbs. Why do they talk like that, "You know he started his career at 106."

But they keep bringing it up and I told them the same thing; the greatest trick the devil ever did was convince the world he didn't exist. The greatest trick that Pacquiao ever did was convince you all that he was a small man! And he's going to keep beating the **** out of people who keep thinking he's a small man. At 147 lbs., Pacquiao is a small man like Mike Tyson was a small heavyweight!

Was Mike Tyson a small heavyweight? Well, he was a pretty short heavyweight, but short and small are two different things. As long as they keep believing that they'll get beat. Cotto did that though the first couple of rounds. He hit Pacquiao the first couple of rounds and Pacquiao stood there, and Cotto is like, what? He gonna stay there a little longer.

Let me ask you a question. Muhammad Ali was the taller man against Frazier, correct?

Ali shot the jab, and circled. Didn't that happen?

When do we change in boxing and say, "the guy is shorter than me I'm gonna walk him down." That was boxing 101, that was common sense in boxing. I thought everybody knew-I thought people who couldn't box knew that. Cotto is in there, and Oscar walking him down. Is Muhammed Ali gonna walk Joe Frazier down? "Joe Frazier's the small heavyweight." So don't tell me Pacquiao is smaller. Either guy can win.

"Winky Wright:
I picked Cotto. I went against Pacquiao two times. Against De La Hoya and against Cotto. And both times I lost. Pacquiao is an exciting and dangerous fighter, man. Against Floyd or against whoever I'm not gonna bet against him. I thought Floyd would kill him before, but now he made me a believer."

I'm on the same boat Winky from the picks to the thought Floyd would KO him..now..not so sure..lol
