[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

WBA/WBC welterweight and junior middleweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. believes Manny Pacquiao, the WBO champion at 147-pounds, had no choice but to accept a fight with him for May 2nd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Mayweather says Pacquiao's "back was against the wall" and the Filipino star is in need of money. The undefeated pound-for-pound king points to Pacquiao's tax troubles in the United States and the Philippines and he also take a few jabs at Pacquiao's inability to break 400,000 pay-per-view purchases for his contest in last fall against Chris Algieri.

Lmao! So it begins...

What better way to start building up the fight then by acting like an arrogant bad guy. Floyd needs to go all out villain leading up to this fight.

Floyd is that lame, ugly ninja from school that had no game whatsoever but always had a bad b1tch with him cuz he had the vansons, pelles and new Jordan's every month.

Thank you floyd for signing the contract.

Saw that full article, did Floyd just throw Haymon under the bus by smartly exprssing praises of Haymon but hidden is the self exoneration of being blamed for avoiding to fight Pac since 2008? Well we're talking about Floyd here...

That's what exactly Moonves told your ass Floyd. You got no choice.

Pacquiao's tax issue was taken care of months after it happened. It hasn't been an issue in years

Who really needed the money was Al Haymon. Hes spending 10's of millions buying timeslots that he forced floyd to take this fight. Thats all there is to it

[TRTboy]

LOL it was actually the other way around. Showtime's head honcho had to put his foot down and made mayweather fight pac so that they wouldn't lose anymore money.

Pacquiao: "outside of uneducated Mayweather fans, the whole world and all of the media were saying Floyd was a coward. I had to pay all of those people to call Floyd a coward and that was a lot of people I had to pay and so I went broke paying half the population of earth to hashtag Floyd is a coward"
