Official Floyd Mayweather- Manny Pacquiao Postfight aftermath discussion

if it's true then its just dumb imo. Im hoping it's not cuz imo its kinda childish like.

its petty as hell. just pay more. That seems like the easiest thing to do.

Haymon allegedly is paying sparring partners off to not train with Manny. It's petty but Manny needs to spar. Roach tells Bob what is going on. Just pay them more and they will come. You fight fire with fire, again if this is true.

My guess is its more important to obtain the services of the sparring partners you want.

No, just no. If true, then its just another huge turd from floyd. Why cant floyd just be a man and fight someone at their best rather than trying to diminish them, especially a fight of this magnitude. You just know that floyd is going to try allsorts of garbage in the 48 hours leading up to the first bell too. I hope he doesnt, but floyd never fails to dissapoint.....unless you're a bumsniff and not really a boxing fan.

Haymon is doing this allegedly, not Floyd. Floyd is training and surely is focused on that. How is he trying to diminish him?

SO what if he does, no different than say Manny threatening to pull out the Hatton fight at the last minute over money. No one says that caused the KO. Anyone who did would be an idiot.

If Manny loses, he loses. The premature excuses have to stop.

Manny should send some t-girls haymon's way to distract him from running PBC and petty buy-offs of sparring partners.

Freddie says its allegedly Haymon, not Floyd. I agree, it wreaks of desperation on Haymon's part if true. Just tell Bob to pay them more and the issue is addressed.

Boxing coach Freddie Roach accused the camp of Floyd Mayweather Jr. of employing dirty tricks to shake up Manny Pacquiao's training ahead of their May 2 super-fight.

In an interview with ABS-CBN's Dyan Castillejo, the seven-time Boxing Coach of the Year claimed that Mayweather's manager Al Haymon is bribing potential sparring partners to convince them not to work with Pacquiao.

"I'm hiring sparring partners, Al Haymon's people calls them up and offers more money for them not to come," Roach said. "[But] I'm not worried about those guys."

Roach also explained in the interview why he is confident about Pacquiao's performance in the upcoming mega-bout.

why is TBE so shook as to resort to this?

[IMDAZED]

Are people really whining about this?

There is more than one way to address the issue. Haymon should rescind his offer to pay more and allow the sparring partners to train w/ pac on the previous terms. That would be the more equitable solution.

I understand your point. That said, If this is true, and it's not confirmed to be, do You think a sparring partner level fighter is going to give back Haymon's payment to then take a smaller payment to be a sparring partner?

would you do that?
