Comments Thread For: Mayweather: The Media Built Manny Pacquiao To My Level

[GRUSTLER]

Why do posters keep saying that Floyd can't keep Manny's name out of his mouth? He most likely was asked a question about him fighting Manny and he answered it. Manny, Roach and Arum were the ones mentioning Floyd for all of Manny's reign as a top fighter until it ended. Floyd was semi retired and the whole team Manny kept Floyd in their mouths in regards to fighting and beating him, but as soon as Floyd came back they said they didn't need Mayweather.

My take is that Manny had a big head and ego. He preferred to be compared to Mayweather instead of fighting and trying to beat him. Manny ducked the random blood tests to fight a guy coming off a loss. Blood weakens him but now it doesn't against Rios?

Manny fought Oscar, Hatton and Mosley after Mayweather (which were considered some of his biggest wins) and all of them still said that Floyd would beat Manny. Manny has never been the betting favorite over Mayweather through all the hype and beatings he gave his bigger opponents. Manny should have done what Marquez did regarding Bradley if he really wanted it with Mayweather. Funny thing is that random blood testing has become a big topic and is being used often now but back then Floyd was ducking Manny?

Pacquiao cut through all Mayweather's opponents and took on the ones he was afraid of, he built himself up and Floyd ducked him like the plague.

I don't agree with Floyd here..Pac fought his way to Mayweather's level,to the point he was the most logical fight for Floyd..The media may have pushed for Pac to be his opponent..Pac clearly fought his way to Floyd's level,which to Floyd's credit is the top of the sport..

Don't agree with this either..I just hate this conversation so much that I won't go into to it..

From yesterday. He brings up Pacquiao's name out of nowhere - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfiovmqTqzc&t=3m55s


It's interesting to see how many things Mayweather accuses Pacquiao of that he ends up doing himself...

People should ignore the Pac vs Floyd issue until such a fight is finally set.
Otherwise it's waste of time and endless sterile arguments.

blinded Reloaded;13506037]He may as well have pulled the 154 title from a packet of Corn Flakes , it was a set up worthless paper title .

Manny was the biggest WW snow job in boxing ever , that's why he fights the little guys and loses , you watch what Floyd does to Bradley if he beats Juan , and if Juan wins he don't want nothing to do with Floyd , you idiots don't know nothing about boxing just a bunch of Pac fanboys living of hype .[/QUOTE]

blinded by Floyds nuuutttz!

Hatton at his original weight of 140 = better, Pacquaio also knocked down the iron chin Mosley and obliterated Oscar, his wins are much better than Mayweather in terms of performance and excitement, Mosley and Oscar weren't much different from when they faced either fighter.

Also, stop trying to use blood testing, it's been explained before, he never denied testing, he wanted the testing to have a different cut off date not so close to the fight like Eric Morales, which gave him a loss after saying he felt weakened when having his blood taken so close to the fight. This is a legitimate physiological claim, and holds weight, ask any doctor, ask them while some people feel sick or drowsy after blood is taken and others don't, he will tell you it straight.

Shall I link Floyd asking for 100% PPV revenue? You think that's someone who wants the fight made with a fellow ATG? How about attempting to defame another boxing by claiming he's on steroids, resulting it Mayweather getting sued because of his own ******ity? How about health comes first?

If you honestly think Pacquaio avoided Mayweather, after seeing what kind of person each of them are, and there previous histories, you're a moron. Mayweather has always had these doubts about him, and rightfully so... Pacquaio not so much. Mayweather have any reason to ignore Pacquaio saying live on ESPN that he'll agree to anything just so the fight gets made?

Manny got brought to Mayweathers level himself, Floyd just can't admit that Pacquaio did it in a much more exciting and crowd pleasing way that even non-boxing fans can enjoy.

Funny too how Manny demolished all of those bitter mother****ers twice as bad (if not more, lmfao) as Floyd did.

Anyway, the whole Floyd/Manny thing is just ******ed. It will always be ******ed. They're both equally ******ed for the biggest money making fight EVER not happening. Their fan bases are both full of nut hugging tard-tastic morons. The fact that we still talk about them is ******ed. The fact that their fans can't possibly credit the other is ******ed, and the fact that they are obsessed with discrediting the other is equally ******ed.

They're the top 2 fighters of their respective era...why can't people accept that? Why does it have to be one is an ATG and the other is a bum?

This is where the BS gives you no credibility , the Oscar and Cotto that Floyd fought were 20 lbs bigger than what Manny fought , Mosley came of his best recent win for Floyd and came of 2 losses for Manny , Hatton was undefeated with Floyd and a destroyed lost soul with a coke habit with Manny , don't even try and compare common opponents because Manny WONT even fight the versions Floyd beat .
