Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Takes a Direct Jab at Mayweather's Credibility

[Bronx2245]

Algeiri is a tough strong world champion and also a young lion that pacquiao can't overlook.

You obviously haven't checked Algeri's resume. 1) He's never fought a Welterweight, 2) He's only been in one championship fight @ 140, 3) If you ever saw Algeri before he fought Provodnikov, you saw it on ESPN (which should tell you everything you need to know). This is a total mismatch and it's shameful that a fighter on Manny's level should be fighting him on PPV.

Floyd beat the Cotto that Manny was afraid to fight !!

Its got nothing to do with fear kid , thats your immature brain in your world of death stares and bogey man .

The topic of this thread makes no sense at all and once again shows the propaganda agenda of this forum , the topic doesnt say anything that was said for Manny to make that response , but who cares , keep talking Manny , keep having a swipe at Floyd every chance you get in front of microphone , tell Arum to keep his mouth shut and you do all the talking because its the way to get Floyd so keep doing it more and more , when you beat Algeiri call Floyd out directly and strongly , if you dont it was all just using his name to sell your crappy fight .

I really like Manny himself calling out Floyd , do it more and be more direct and you might get what you wish for .

Stfu. Your first sentence shows that you have no idea what you are talking about. "Floyd beat the Cotto that Manny was afraid to fight !!"

The guys an idiot don't bother. Ortiz, Guerrero and maidana all moved up from 140. ****boy logic.

Actually Guerrero moved up from 135 with a couple of fights to acclimitize. The fact that beating Berto (already beaten by Ortiz) put him in frame to face Mayweather tells you all you need to know about what Mayweather looks for in an opponent. Oh, people forget that Guerrero had already been beaten by Salido as well, but it got overturned due to a failed drug test.

Also you miss out Marquez. Marquez came up from 135 as well - and looked very fleshy against Mayweather. He bulked up by drinking piss and eating quail eggs. It wasn't until Conte got involved that he turned in to the hulk at 40 and sparked Pac.

I mean Maidana has been beaten by Ortiz, Khan, and Devon Alexander already in recent years. But he beat 147 debutant Broner so hey, he deserves the shot.

Mayweather complains that people pick apart his record, but it's really frustrating for the fans to have the #1 P4P fighter simply generally avoid the most dangerous fighters. We will never truly know how good Mayweather was because only 4-5 times did he really challenge himself by picking a tough opponent. We'll never see him in with a big, tough pressure fighter like Margarito or Rios, for example. We'll never see him in with a tough technical fighter like Bradley for example. When did he last enter the ring against a guy that everybody was afraid of? He retired instead of fighting the unbeaten Cotto. You didn't hear him hammering at the door to take on Cotto's conquerer (Margarito). He's swerved every which way to avoid Pacquiao. Floyd Mayweather is the last person to be seen whenever there's a fighter making the fans go, "Damn, he's bad ass."

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a huge fan of some of Pacquiao's opponents in recent years, but he's been the smaller guy in almost all of them. He's going into his 34th world title fight compared to Mayweather's 24. He's fought 3 ATGs multiple times. We know how good Pacquiao is because he has been in the ring with the best opponents available at almost every weight category he's been in.

I believe that Floyd Mayweather could have beaten all the fighters he failed to challenge, but because he's been such a slippery #1 P4P fighter, we'll never truly know how good he actually was. If he was 47-0 against the best available opponents, he would be a slam dunk for GOAT. Instead, his career path of avoiding the scarey guys has left him in the same category as Calzaghe - an ATG but with a big question mark over how good he actually was.

I'm sure he doesn't care. Wealthy, successful, and an ATG with a claim for being one of the best of all time, but it's funny how - still fighting - he's the one that has to claim it. You don't see Pacquiao parading around with TBE gear, because he doesn't have to.

This is easy, Floyd career is near ending as Pacquiao too, they started the promotion to hype the fans again for this mega fight, Floyd called Manny saying the requeriments to fight him, I dont remember the last time he do that, Many is talking alot too, Arum, now De LahOya about May and Sept dates, tyheir are pushing to make the fight loks like they both in their prime, BET this fight will hapen, because the money wil be so huge that no one will lose.

They already making the hype again, so after Pacman Beat Algeri BET ON IT, that after fight he will simply call Mayweather direcvtly and the most direct words ever. So, dont be bother that Manny and Floyd fight on May, because thats why DelA hOYA TOLD THAT jUNE IS A GOOD DATE FOR cANELO, HE SIMPLY SAYING, IF YOU mAYWEATHER DONT GO WITH Many on Cinco Mayo, I take Cotto-Canelo, that wil destroy any Floyd opponent PV, so also he is taking May sept date forcing him to fight Many, and now that Top Rank And GoldBoy are togheter they have more fighter to make good undercards with great fights,. If Floyd dont figh Many on May Canelo Cotto is there and you will see a great undefard, forcing Mayweather to change or go with Many, if he change, then on sep if Canelo or Cotto wins, dont take out a Cotto-GGG fight with Canelo Undefcard if he lost to Cotto, making it solid vs Floyd with anyone, or pushing Many on sep as main vs a strong great fighter Maybe... But as Top Rank and Golden Boy working hand to hand are forcing Mayweather to fight Many or Cotto or retire with low ppv numbers and with fighters c class, that will make him less than important to the other big fights they made.

So imagine this

May Date (Cotto-Canelo, under card Nonito Donarie vs Other)
(Floyd vs Khan and a few of his stable guys)

That date Cotto-Canelo wil take easy 1.0 million buys
Floyd wil take like 560,000 or even more less

Then after that date Floyd fame is going down

Sept Date (Cotto-GGG With Canelo-Maidana) under card and the winner takes on the winner of Cotto-GGG that wil be on 154

will win over Floyd vs any other boxer that is not Many.

So this is basic, GBP and TR arte forcing the mega fight Floyd vs Pacquiao, BET ON IT, this plan is old after Shaeferr quit on GBP, I make article about it, now you see May mentioning Richard, and why Ariza sign with Floyd, because they will meet and he want the best shape and to know the tricks Pacquiao and Roach use.

BET IT.

Can I be excluded too??

good one,lolololol!!

[chico malo ali]

pac and arum need to get off floyds nuts and quit begging for a fight.

[TBOGGS78]

Stfu. Your first sentence shows that you have no idea what you are talking about. "Floyd beat the Cotto that Manny was afraid to fight !!"

It's actually true Cotto was down for the rematch but just not at a catchweight this time, Pac choose other options. The same with DLH, Mayweather beat him at 154 not 145. You can't argue facts.

[Heavyfist]

Man, Floyds image has just gone down the drain this summer, lol.

As much of a scum bag he is, I won't blame him for not fighting Pacquiao next, but he should fight him after his next fight. He has two fights left, and if he's going to fight Pacquiao it would obviously be the last fight I imagine.

If a fighter (or his promoter) turn down 2 offers to fight, then sue you, and you go on to make record-breaking money with the future, while he gets KO'd by the past, you don't make him new offers. Floyd just beat the Jr. Middleweight champ (Canelo), and the Welterweight champ (Maidana) twice. Manny is fighting the WBO Jr. Welterweight champ (Algeri) who has 20 fights and only 8 KOs, and Manny demanded a CW. If Floyd wants to fight the best, all roads lead to GGG. GGG is the only credible champion that deserves a Floyd fight (unless Khan beats Thurman). Even Marquez deserves a rematch more than Manny deserves a fight at this point. **** Bob Arum!

1 offer comedic, another with highly unusual and insulting demand.

Maidana was not the welter champ, he was unranked before beating paper champ Broner

Sure GGG would be great but GTFO, this guy is terrified of a past prime midget. Lineal SWW paper champ is not touching Ggg with a 10 foot pole

[bigjavi973]

I always hear Pac and Roach say Floyd's legs are gone, which can be explained because he's getting older but how do you explain Pac losing his power?

Easy. Out of his recent fights, only margacheato has only been ko'd.
