" In the various US states, whether by case law or legislation, there are generally several "privileges" that can get a defamation case dismissed without proceeding to trial. These include the litigation privilege, which makes statements made in the context of litigation non-actionable, and the allegedly defamatory statement being "fair comment and criticism", as it is important to society that everyone be able to comment on matters of public interest. "
Now Floyd Snr being and expert in the field of training fighters would come under " fair comment and criticsm "
Its very hard to win a defamation case , Pac has no hope in this .
You Pac fanboys are getting flogged in all this debate , your ship is sinking .

Attacks on a person's professional character or standing are considered per se defamation.
Regarding the "matter of opinion defense," accusing someone of being a lousy boxer is opinion.
Accusing someone of using illegal drugs without valid proof is defamation.

"I don't think he can beat Lil' Floyd with steroids in him or not." (Grand Rapids Press)
"Man, that guy is on something. There's no way in the world he's going to be walking back a big man like that...I know Floyd is the best, but when your opponent uses something illegal, even the best can get hurt." (Sports Illustrated)
since pacquiao is a public figure, his main task is to establish that the mayweathers had malice in their statements.
senior's statements are outright libelous.

Originally posted by big_james10 View PostAlso, if you conducted some research, you will find very few successful libel and slander suits. Lou Dibella won one against Bernard Hopkins a few years ago but Dibella had Hopkins slanderous comments on tape and proved that his comments were harmful to his professional endeavors.

Originally posted by Splackavellie View PostFloyd Sr.'s slanderous comments are documented digitally all over the internet (youtube). Since the general public consensus is that Pac is on steroids as a result of Floyd Sr.'s accusations, accusations made "with reckless disregard of whether it was false or not," (actual malice), Pacquiao's professional endeavors will almost certainly be harmed. What makes this case so much different than the Hopkins-Dibella case?
I've said this before, team Mayweather is requesting not accusing. It's no different than Pac requesting 10 million penalty for being over weight, glove size, ring size, money split, PPV rights etc. It's all a contract and for this kind of money they can do as they please. Mayweather's agreed, why not Pac?
It's not that big of a deal but since Mayweather Jr is involved people become very ******ed.
Anyway, Bad logic about your post because Team Pac is looking at fighting Malignaggi (who said Pac was doing something "fishy").
Contradicting??????? This is the fighter (Malignaggi) himself saying that, NOT his father who has nothing to do with the team.... bad bad bad logic on you!
