[twosweethooks]

WOW , hahaha

You say the truth yer gonna get hated fer it !!!!!

IF anyone has told the truth , the whole truth and nothing but the truth in his interview here as we read its LARRY MERCHANT !!

Larry you will be hated here , scoffed , cursed and plain ole CUSSED but yore skin is tough enough to take it !!!

BRAVO , BRAVO I SAY !!!

[twosweethooks]

I agree man there are even times I've seen where even his co-workers are disgusted with his comments.

Come on Tweez , you and ol Wess have snubbed good ole Pacmang so long yer jaws must ache.

True game fighters take on all comers, been that way since John L. Sullivan.

Pac is taking on all comers, not leaving anyone out, is willing to submit to Mayweathers silly cowardly demands trying to build himself up cause anyone with a rational mind can see he has been scared to death of losing that "O". He has NEVER FOUGHT a TOP ELITE CONTENDER IN THE WW's.

Merchant brought it out after the Hatton fight, like what about COTTO, then Mayweather starts stuttering, losing it and repeating insolent tirades about he is the face of boxing , he is this and he is that, makes one want to get out the nice puke bag and fill it up to hear it.

It would be nice if he would get on an even playing field, and if its such and easy fight then he won't need an edge, just make it 50 50 all the way around,,,shaw mang they don't even need to have a face off , just face off in the RING !!!!!!

If Pac and May were two bulldogs , I would certainly take Pac cause May has for the past several years shown himself a CUR , he would jump the nice pit.

IF Pac and May face one another in the ring, put me down on record as saying Pac will brutally KO Mayweather by 4 or make him QUIT like his uncle did in Chavez II , on his stool with his head hanging down by 11.

Great coup by HBO luring the biggest name in boxing back to them. Be interesting to see the PPV number with the increased build up coverage.

I'm betting it will out do Mayweather's numbers vs Marquez.

"Then finally, it was the fight with Oscar de la Hoya. And the feeling that maybe he had gone a size to far..."

Oh really? Oscar was fighting at a weight he hadn't made in a decade. Look at the tale of the tape. It bugs the hell out of me when they try to make it out to be like this David and Goliath nonsense.

It was David and Goliath the moment it was signed. Nobody had Pacquiao winning this fight....Pac was a 4-1 underdog. Gringo-Mexicans are celebrating coz they finally will have their revenge.

It's not his fault that come the day before the fight Oscar came in less than 144.

How many round did Mosley win? 0

If Mayweather want to run and lose every round, then so be it.

Mayweather could not even counter Judah, how is he going to counter Pacquiao?

The REAL question to you is:
- Who decided to fight Mosley the #1 WW Champion? Mayweather
- How many fights did Mosley win AFTER fighting Margarito? 0
- How many fights did Mosley win AFTER fighting Mayweather? 0
- How many fights did Mosley win AFTER fighting Mora? 0
- Who decided to fight Mosley on a non-winning streak? Pac


If you think Mayweather runs and loses every round than your just being a silly goose...

Mayweather connect rate is higher than most phone providers. Pac is easy to hit. See the Clottey fight for an example. See the Cotto fight for an example. See the Margarito fight for an example. His face wasn't busted just for the hell of it. If you think these fighters are slick and fast too then we have nothing left to discuss. Most all Pac's opposition since 2008 have been coming off horrible loses and are FORMER champions. Some that havent won a fight in nearly 3 years. At least JMM is winning right, then again not at WW.

Mayweather counters pac all night while dictating the pace of the fight like Mosley did with his 39 year old non mobile legs.

btw, Roach has already said multiple times that Pac wont throw as much either. I wonder why?

I don't see the fight being any more entertaining than Pac vs Mosley was. By the time its over people will be disgusted with Mayweather even more for making it "boring" and not engaging. I will say Floyd cherry picked a smaller fighter like JMM. I wont give Floyd ANY credit for beating Pac. Like George Foreman said it will take a big man to beat Floyd and to see the best out of him. Pac is not a big man, he's shorter, no reach, height etc. Like I said when it does happen I give Floyd ZERO credit. The fight needs to happen so people can move on, get the hate over with for Floyd. I'm ready to hear who he's ducking next. My guess, Martinez as that's who I personally want to see Floyd fight. Then again if he beats him people will just say he's old. Or lost before or some BS....

Hates the fact that Mayweather can jab

I HEAVILY favored Pac to beat "that" Hoya. I lost because my bet was for a 12 round decision victory not a TKO. Roach was talking about Hoya and how he wouldn't perform well at 147 and as Hoya's former trainer (Roach) was suggesting Hoya was shot and the great betting odds I picked Pac to beat a zombiefied Hoya. He deserved it, then again he got what he wanted. One last paycheck and he surely cashed in.
