Comments Thread For: Mayweather on Pacquiao: I Got To Eat Marquez's Leftovers?

[carloscruz10009]

He offered manny 50/50 manny said no. He offered manny 40 mil, manny said no. Maybe floyd should offer him 50/50 and 40 mil maybe he will say ok.

They didn't want the fight... Even Ariza admitted it

you had no problem eating pacquiao's leftovers in marquez and cotto. you had no problems eating oscar's leftovers in gatti.

if floyd chooses khan, he will be eating pacquiao's sparring partner leftovers.

i guess i shoudlnt be surprised considering floyd didnt even finish high school.

He at least made it passed 3rd grade unlike another fighter we know.

[carloscruz10009]

Not really. Cause it would be nothing but a belt grab. Cotto fought better than expected. But he still only won 3rds, 4 at th most. So to me, it would be like Floyd just going to 60 fighting a guy he knows he can handle.

So no cotto rematch.. Who's left? Going up to 160, one of my novice boxing friends said Kirkland

U didn't like the canelo choice ? Or the 2 pds overshadow that win

Sure did when he fought Marquez (who never fought at a weight greater than 135 pounds). While Mayweather (who's fought as heavy as 154 pounds) came in 2 pounds over the limit after setting a 144 pound catchweight. Then switched the contract to allow him to weigh in at 147 with a financial penalty.

sorry pacquiao didnt grow up with in the american suburbs with a father and multiple uncles who were professional prize fighters. at least pacquiao had an excuse as to why he didnt go to school. He had no choice.

Floyd on the other hand took pride in not finishing high school.

Cant say im surprised as he's adored by fans with similar education levels.

Mayweather isn't fighting above welterweight unless its a big money fight.

Good point but got one Big problem..... He knocked out pacquiao at 47 not at 44... Weight had nothing to do with those wins or losses

I think I figured out why Floyd is ranting on all his potential opponents. It's December 26th and he didn't get any presents from anyone. No thoughtful or heartfelt gifts, anyway. Probably only people spending the money he gave them on him, if that. They were probably thinking "Hell not I'm not buying him gifts, he already has all they money and everything he wants" and not realizing that Floyd is like a child and still wants to be appreciated. Christmas came and he is pissed he didn't get anything and now he is taking it out on others.

Who gives a damn about his education level. He's the smartest boxer inside the ring and has hundreds of millions of dollars to his name.

Good post.. Both guys overcame those things and became multi millionaires with their trade & craft
