Comments Thread For: Mayweather Stands Firm On Rescinding Rematch Offer

[Mike_R]

I still think we might see the rematch just because I don't think Floyd has to be worried about losing to Manny in a rematch. I don't think Manny would be able to do anything differently in they fought again, and the money is so bonkers. But the mystery isn't there anymore. They went 12 rounds and that in ring experience always factors in Floyd's favor with his opponents.

If it happens though Floyd will definitely make it a miserable experience for Pac and his handlers.

Good. I want someone with enough talent to challenge floyd. Pac isnt it

1) Mayweather stated that he had a shoulder problem BEFORE the fight

2) Watching the fight, it was obvious that Mayweathers shoulder was injured

3) Mayweather complained to the corner more than once

4) Mayweathers corner were seen working on his shoulder more than once

5) Mayweather stated what the problem was immediately, not as an excuse

6) Mayweather rematched Castillo immediately, beating him decisively, which PROVED that the previous injury was genuine

Pacquiao did none of those things.

The situation is obviously completely different and cannot be compared.

The fact that Pacquiao did none of those things proves that the injury claim is bull****.

I edited in my responses in my comment. Sorry for the delay.

Remember the day Floyd when you won, but actually didn't..



You know you won the fight even with just one hand, when the hometown boy was booed in front of the hometown crowd after he was announced the winner.

Priceless.

dey booed because of dis **** below!

Just saying.....

Also, none of this addresses the fact that JLC and Maidana both stated that they felt they won. Why Mayweather feels the need to tell Pacquiao to admit that he lost is beyond me, and inconsistent with his previous actions.

I agree with what someone said earlier. The rematch will be Floyd's 50th fight. The first PBC PPV.

I was thinking that PBC would be involved somehow as well. Pretty sure something interesting is going to happen...keep in mind that there will be 2 venues to work with by next May.

Is Floyd really to going to relinquish those belts? What if they threw a bone to fans and had a mini-tournament culminate at the MGM Grand and have Floyd-Pac II at the new arena. Split site PPV or have the PBC lead into a PPV or something like that. At the very least, if these two rematch providing full access to the people who got locked out last time should be paramount... no gouging this time. Wishful thinking maybe

Not a bad idea. Good post.

To be fair, JLC and Maidana both fought a closer fight than Pac did.

I think Pac is being a bit silly saying he won that fight, when he clearly didn't.

I think that Mayweather is pissed because..... he took the high-ground during the buildup to the fight..... no trash talk, no disparaging comments, he showed nothing but respect..... Mayweather was supremely confident going into this fight, and he thinks that he earned a little more credit than he is getting.... I'm pretty sure thats all it is.

Also, Mayweather seems a bit sensitive, insecure really. I think he probably reads more comments and stuff than he lets on.

Everybody is entitled to say on who won the fight!

No need to BRAINWASH Boxing Fans!

Both Floyd Jr and Pacman earned hundreds of millions of dollars, no need to insult each other! Just give thanks to Boxing Fans who payed sky rocket price tickets just to watch and cheer their boxers!

Say Thank You for watching and supporting our Fight!!!
