Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Critics Said Pacquiao Was a God, I Beat Him

[hugh grant]

So he picked Berto in the hope Berto can help Floyd be in an exciting fight?

Cotto didn't have a great trainer when Floyd beat him. Canelo was CW. Pac was ko'd by JMM.

Just rematch Pac and then call it a day, since your not going to fight at middleweight.

Brush, don't be disrespectful now. Floyd is more like P. Diddy than Tupac.

that's some truth right there.

And Pac was a slayer back in the day, it makes no sense to compare him to someone like lil' boosie. Anybody who downplays pac is someone who's just a groupie of another fighter and who has no knowledge of Pac's history. That is a ****ing fact. You don't stand toe to toe with Morales Barrera and Marquez if you're not the real deal.

That comparison sounds like it comes from someone who doesn't know what the **** they're talking about.

You start out writing don't believe the punch stats, compubox, then point out that the punch stats show Floyd threw the least amount of punches in any fight to date.....

..... Hope you are not offended.

Mayweather is smart how he waited til Pacquiao slowed down. Some people still don't see this.

Well, he is a lot smarter than you, if you think that he delayed that fight.

Pacquiao gave 8 ridiculous excuses to avoid random blood testing.

We did not need 8 silly excuses, we needed 1 genuine reason.

Two questions.....

1) which one of those 8 ridiculous excuses did you believe ?

2) why is that ridiculous excuse no longer a problem ?

Seriously, aren't we miles past that level of ******ation now ?

So much bull**** in one post I don't know where to even begin

First off, it was Pacquiao's team that walked away from the negotiations. Freddie Roach even admitted it was their fault that the fight didn't happen back in 2010. Pacquiao turned the fight down because of blood testing so Floyd moved on and fought Mosley. Pacquiao then wanted a bigger guarantee of the purse. In the end Floyd got the drug testing and STILL got more money.

When you have a torn rotator cuff you CAN'T move your arm without significant pain. How was Pacquiao able to raise his arms with a torn rotator cuff? Why did he tell the commission he was fine? And how was he able to swing his right arm wildly if his rotator cuff was torn?

Your math is also F'ked up. welterweight is Pac's 7th division and Floyd's fourth as a pro. But Floyd has fought as low as 112 pounds, same as Manny's starting weight, when he was an amateur. So stop with the excuses.

And NO Manny did not win. Stop using some slow motion video posted by an anonymous user who doesn't know how the sport of boxing actually works. Floyd beat Manny clearly. Fights don't happen in slow motion they fight in real time. Now cut the B.S.

Regarding the bold.....

SMDH, that there are still people who are either desperate enough, or ****** enough, to run with that bullshht.

That bullshht was absurd back in 2010..... but to still run with that now ?

It cant be ******ity, surely.

Absolute..... fkn..... desperation.

Maidana did rough him up pretty good.

righhtt so floyd waited on purpose until he was 38 years old to fight pac..seems legit

floyd of 5 years ago was even better than the floyd of today manny was never going to beat him other than a lucky punch ppl thought he would walk through floyd yet he struggled with a lesser counter puncher 4 times ...take nothing away from PAC his cotto win was superb and his margarito win even tho marg is a punchbag manny still beat a guy in size he had no business fighting

there is blackspots on floyds record castillo 1 and maidana 1 maybe oscar getting a draw would be reaching a bit but same goes for any fighter in history if you pick their record apart give the man his props he didnt do it the way everyone wanted and likes but he still has cleaned out this era

No, he waited until Pac got KOed by roided-up Marquez

Floyd, all you did was hug, grab, head lock ,......

[mathed]

How the times have changed, lol. For the past few years, I've heard plenty of times how Roach and Koncz kept using Floyd's name to sell fights. Now it's Mayweather himself who can't stop talking about Pac.
