It would be so funny too see Floyd try and counter Roy and just hit thin air every time and get caught with lead left hooks and overwhelmed by combinations, realising his shoulder rolls are fast enough.
Pacquiao will pressure Roy and back him up, Roy will land big but so will Pacquiao, and Pacquiao has much the better chin.Comment

Hernandez as well. And I could see him doing that for a lot of other fighters. Floyd has a lot of love for the older generation. He's even started dressing like a prime HaglerI don't think its HATE, I think a lot of older fighters are scratching their heads as to why Mayweather is making boat loads of money when his style isn't what one would call entertaining. Although I find Mayweather style entertaining, a lot of people would consider it safe and or boring.
Also I think Mayweather just says a lot of stuff to rattle peoples emotions. Boxers are no different than politicians IMO. Mayweather comes from the old school fight game/era, he respects the great HOF fighters. I don't think him saying he is better than any fighter of the past is disrespectful at all, why not say it if you believe it and you have been nearly flawless in the sport of boxing your entire career & you've learned all the methods and tricks from the old school fight era.
Mayweather paid for Fraziers funeral. Where was George Foreman with all his grill money? Where was Don King? Bob Arum? All of Fraziers sparring partners or opponents? When it was all said and down it was Mayweather jr who stepped up to the plate and handled funeral expenses for the late great Joe Frazier.

speaking of SRL....he stated the same thing as Roy concerning who would be a tougher fight (pacquiao).
I have heard other greats stated Mayweather would be a tougher fight, and IMO, these guys know their own weaknesses and things they struggled with, so who are we to question their opinion.
There is also proof to this, because on numerous occasions, Roy spoke on the difficulties in fighting a southpaw and awkard fighters.
Also, Ray has stated and has show that aggressive fighters give him problems.
Both stated they would beat Manny and Floyd, which is true....so I really don't see what the problem is.Comment

You take a 18/19 year old Oliver McCall and stripped him 20% of his natural weight, so he is severely dehydrated and he will get KOed too.
Pacquiao walked through Cottos best shots, RJJ did not walk through Johnson's or Tarver's shots.
Are you arguing that Roy has a great chin?
If you are you are on your own, doubt if even Roy will agree with you.Comment
