Comments Thread For: Daily Bread Mailbag: Mayweather-Pacquiao, More

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

In his latest 'Daily Bread' mailbag, Stephen "Breadman" Edwards answers questions on a variety of topics - including this Saturday's mega-fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao.

PBC fights

Your breakdown of the two PBC fights was pretty much spot on.... all the 6 judges should be applauded, one of the best scorecards in a while (for major fights). I'm starting to believe that maybe Al Haymon actually wants to improve the sport.

Initially I didn't agree with your analysis of the Garcia-Peterson, assuming that Garcia's shots will be too much to handle earning Garcia 8-4-ish decision or stoppage. But it was Garcia who seemed in trouble in the later rounds. Like you said Peterson was/is the better body puncher, and I think Garcia was quite hurt in the 8th round.

Is the daily bread officially on the boxingscene now?! Did Breadman make the switch, like Angie Martinez? Did the homie take his talents to Boxingscene a la LeBron James? Inquiring minds want to know.

Question #1 What if Pacquiao knocks out chicken Mayweather? Answer: Floyd Sr. will seek asylum in other countries because his very own son will be hunting him.La Hymen will open a gay bar with Barbie Ellerbe.

Breadman don't wanna be the sell out in the gym. Black guy rolling with the black guy.
I hit him up about the testing and memo and he ignored it. He knows Floyd is juicing but his fighter Julian Williams is a haymon fighter.Paulie turned to the daRk side and now Stephen Edwards as well.

To the black community bread is a hero.I used to have respect for him,now I view him as a boxing sellout. Same old I'm black so I gotta roll with The black guy and haymon.
He is in now and don't wanna get ousted..
Sell out.

I call it like I see it.he don't fool me

I personally don't see it like that. I think he's just been busy. He's one of the most intelligent and objective boxing writers/analysts I know of. I look forward to him educating some of the people in these forums lol.

Edwards called how the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight would go down 3-4 years ago. He said Floyd would wait til Manny was on the slide then take the fight. He pointed out Floyd was picking and choosing his fights and that TR was matching Manny tough too often and was going to get him beat and that would give Floyd the edge in the negotiations as well. Always respect Bread's opinion because he's an intelligent dude who'll assess things from a logical perspective rather than emotional as many fans & media do.

I'll read fight breakdowns from alot of different trainers & fighters and then watch the fight and they're wrong about as often as they're right, but Edwards is almost always on the money with his calls.

I will say I think he did some spinning during his interview with Steve Kim regarding J-Rock's competition, but he's in a situation where that's an understandable thing to do.

Exactly.
I had a lot of respect for him,
He said without saying Floyd is juicing and will dominate with power.

Haymon got in his ear and had exit papers prepared and he changed his tune and won't
Speak on the memo or floyd testing issue.

I called him out to explain himself and he won't answer. He knows something fishy is up and he isn't gonna ruin his own career to
Tell the public.dude is paid off.

Bread got Floyd's d**k in his mouth now
While he strokes haymon.
