Comments Thread For: Roy Jones Jr. Says Mayweather Doesn't Need Pacquiao

[Bushbaby]

Constant pressure for 12 rounds? Sounds like something Pacquiao can do.

We all know this fight is long overdue and that both sides are to blame. Yet, since Floyd is his "own boss", I believe that if he really wanted the fight, then it would have happened.

Cotto is Manny's leftovers- Floyd cannot deny that.

Pacman can pressure stationary, come forward fighters. Move laterally before Pacman does & you have a dumbfounded confused fighter that doesn't know what to do.

I think Roy is wrong here.

Mayweather needs Pacquaio.

If he wants to be considered amongst the greatest fighters of all time, both of them need each other.

What!? I'm a Pac fan but it dosen't take a rocket scientist to understand that HW's/LHW's and WW's don't mix period... It's a ******ed subject. It's like saying "oh man if floyd woulda fought Klitchsko then he wouldn't have got out of the 1st round..." Stick to relevant topics. I agree with Roy too. Floyd doesn't necessarily need that fight, even though it would be a fight of the century. On the same token Manny doesn't need it either both guys are ATG's with a lot of the same name opponents under their belts. I've given up on the fight and just hope that before either one retires they fight top quality fighters with top notch resumes like Bradley and Cotto...

My man just secured the highest guaranteed purse in BOXING HISTORY! He's doing these crazy numbers without Mr. Manny Pacquiao. Is Mr. Pacquiao doing record breaking numbers without Mr. Mayweather??? Of course not. Manny Pacquiao may be the fighter of the decade and the defacto P4P king but my man Money Mayweather is the PPV KING. The man who's breaking all records. Which would you rather be??? Give me the 32 Million dollar guarantee anyday over being heralded as some mythical figure who gets ****d by his promoter at every available opportunity.

The lamest excuse that Bob Arum attempted to use was the outdoor stadium (equipped with a bubble) to accomidate the large crowd that will descend upon Las Vegas for the fight. The large crowd would not descend upon Las Vegas for a Pacquiao fight if he was facing anyone other than Floyd Mayweather. If it was serious like that and Manny was this superdraw without Floyd Mayweather, then I reckon they would've pushed forward with the construction anyways. Since they did not, it's clear to see that they're full of ****!!! They've NEVER intended on building any stadium. They were trying to dupe Floyd out of the May 5th date and it's so obvious due to TR's attempted play for the date when it seemed as if Floyd would be in CCDC on May 5th.

Manny Pacquiao was supposed to be preparing for Floyd by facing a conventional counter puncher with some ok defense, while Floyd prepared for Pacquiao by facing a southpaw with handspeed and punching power. Floyd did his thing and looked great against the younger, stronger fighter while Pacquiao looked like 1st class **** against an older and bloated fighter with major craft. After the 2 fights, it's clear to who would have trouble with who. Floyd peppered Ortiz with right hand pot shots with great ease while Pacquiao struggled with Marquez and found himself getting the cleaner punches landed on himself.

Manny Pacquiao is ducking Floyd Mayweather. After he got his beard checked by the legend JMM, he knows that he doesn't want to step in with the fastest thing on 2 legs. Manny Pacquiao will get his chin touched with right hand bombs all night long.

Floyd's fight game hinges upon breaking his opponent down. A fighter who can quite posibly be blood doped will not break down. Therefore he's being placed in a situation that I wouldn't advise him to place himself in. He wants to know that he's in a fair fight and I don't blame him. He's ready to risk himself in the ring against any fighter who is on even playing field. Manny was unwilling to ensure that when Mr. PB (lifestyle flashy) signed off on the 50/50. Manny pissed that away and he can see the record breaking guarantee and cring knowing that he's getting ****D by Good Ol' Bob "Yesterday I was Lying. Today I'm Telling The Truth" Arum.

I didn't even know Jones was there. I expected him to be but didn't see him. However I ran into BHOP and man, he was angry. Broner was cool as ****, Ward was cool, Hoya was really nice, Devon was great to the fans, Pauli was good too. Ran into Holyfield at Burger Bar before the weigh in... Outside of BHOP all of the fighters where friendly. brother Nazzim is a gentlemen... that dude is chill!

btw, people are starting to realize that Pac would never beat even a 39 year old Mayweather..... let alone a 35 year old version of him.... I gladly asked the question... lol

I saw the 1st Castillo gayweather lastnight without a doubt Castillo won that fight it wasnt a close fight at allllll,Mayweather took some serious punishment,classic bob arum robberry decision, nobody announcing that fight scored it a win for mayweather, and thats definitley the way to beat that guy.
Pacyow is a headhunter he doesnt have anywhere near the bodypunching abilities castillo in his prime did, he is however a very hard punching southpaw which has been known to give fraud problems, Mayweather is avoiding pac at all costs because hes not sure of himself, In my book floyd is only undefeated on paper, he lost to Castillo pretty handily , and shouldve lost or at least been given a draw against Delahoya, Floyd is known for the fighters he DIDNT face not for the ones he did thats his legacey, if he were as good as he and his 7 fans say he is he wouldnt have ducked the countless dangerous fighters he has in the past and continues to duck. Floyd isnt a great fighter hes a great talker and handpicker/matchmaker.Maybe he beats Pacyow but his lack of courage and conviction in himself and unwillingness to face the top top fighters shows otherwise......In floyds own words-"I wont face any strong champions for the rest of my career, I gotta take care of my health" That in his own words sums up his legacey roy jones jr has the same exact legacey so misery loves company.......Fraud Jr is perfectley OK and accepts hes a cowardly Champion and that is what we will all as fans of the sport remember as well as his just de****able personality......
