The REAL TRUTH about Pac and May JR :

GENERAL SANTOS CITY—Goodbye megabout?
World boxing eight-division champ and Sarangani Rep. Manny Pacquiao said he won’t leave Top Rank Promotions just to seal a highly anticipated bout against Floyd Mayweather Jr.
“Floyd Mayweather Jr. never runs out of excuses just to avoid fighting me. If I leave Top Rank, there’s no guarantee the fight would push through,” Pacquiao said in an interview with the Inquirer.
“So, why should I leave Top Rank? Just to make Pacquiao-Mayweather fight happen? No way.”
Pacquiao also called out Mayweather, telling the undefeated American a fight can be made even if the Filipino remains with Top Rank.
“The promotional company where I am in should not be made an issue. If this is the fight the world boxing fans want, let’s do it regardless of which promotional outfit we belong. There should be no lame excuses,” Pacquiao said.
Pacquiao bared that when Mayweather called him up a few years back, the latter asked him to leave Top Rank and join in his own promotional firm, The Mayweather Promotions.
“I told him I’m staying with Top Rank. I’m not interested to join his promotional outfit,” Pacquiao said.
The Filipino ring icon also advised Mayweather to stop insulting him or other boxers.
“When Floyd Mayweather was jailed for domestic violence, I prayed for him. Did you ever hear me say anything bad against him? I did not insult him while he was down and inside the prison cell. Instead, I prayed to God to change his heart,” Pacquiao bared.
On the other hand, Mayweather, Pacquiao said, would not stop making insults about his loss to Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez.
“Floyd Mayweather keeps on insulting me for that knockout. We are not perfect. We all commit mistakes. I made a big mistake during my last fight with Marquez,” Pacquiao said.
“It was both a humbling and learning experience, Pacquiao said of the loss to Marquez. “It has even made me a better and stronger person.”

Always 2 sides to every story and it is hard to please everyone.

[twosweethooks]

who cares? i mean really. this is a non story

ITS obvious May JR don't care !!!

He is the only fighter in history that could be said about him.

Ali was LOVED when he went to Africa. He walked the streets and was thronged by the great people of Africa !!!

HE never "MERCHANDIZED" them,,,

May JR is merchandizing them, his S### is paid for , how bout YOURS?

Hows that working for ya ?

Rumble in the Jungle would prove you wrong.

[junior gong]

Hopefully it's a sign he won't be fighting bum a$$ Khan.....

You'll still be sucking his plums even if he does fight khan.

East London isnt a place in the GB, we have names such as Brixton to describe towns in a region

East London is the name of a place in SA

The writer of the article is a disgrace

Thats on topic peck ! That whole trip is surrounded with the theme of :

Floyd when are you fighting Pac and why haven't you already?

You are AVOIDING the truth of Why the fight hasn't happened.

JR is bashing Pac making new excuses while in Africa and no doubt that one hour media time was like worms crawling under his skin.

No wonder he is done over there, he no doubt thought he would get the same treatment that ALI got, but the kitchen got to hot he had to get out of the kitchen.

So much for the Motherland.
