Comments Thread For: Mayweather: I'm Not the Same Fighter I Was Two Years Ago

already making excuses... He's broke because he gambled and tricked his money away and now conor is going to ko him, so he has the built-in excuse.. Nice...

lmfao lay off that mexican crack

It's true. Get him an agent, Floyd can act. I don't blame him for selling the fight. It's kind of funny.

he sells every fight! berto, guerrero, canelo and now mcgregor fight! he is an actual fighter/promoter unlike most fighters

[Edward90]

Bravo!! He is doing a wonderful job convincing people that McGregor actually has a shot...

[Street]

His way of promoting

But yet, that statement is true. You just can't stop father time, he's been over the hill for a while and it's a one-way on downhill street

If he's admitting he's done why are people so mad at manny who had way more wars for being not the same but still good enough to beat horn

Because for whatever reason there are double standards here. Pacquiao had 18 more professional fights than Floyd and Is making excuses, yet Floyd can say his body Is shot and he Is done and everyone Is supposed to go along with It.

Wonder If he will need to re hydrate before the fight?

[MisanthropicNY]

Get those PEDs in you motha****a.

If you watch Floyd in the Corley and Castillo fights... he looks like a totally different fighter... he clearly started juicing when he fought De La Hoya if not sooner... and USADA is paid off to give him that IV pass...

That isn't what people are questioning.

They are asking why Manny fans can't see he was diminshed when people said guys like Spence and Crawford would destroy him and that is why he didn't fight them and instead fought Horn.

Not until after the Horn fight did they admit what they were vehemently denying just 2 days before that.

I don't think it's just Floyd's way of selling and promoting the fight. I am three years older than Mayweather and have always been into fitness: and whether you're a professional athlete or non-professional fitness enthusiast, you can't workout as intensely and long in your forties as you could when you were a few years younger. There is quite a change. You see it in the way great fighters throw less punches and move around the ring with less frequency as in their primes. In training, now someone like Floyd has to train smart, not necessarily hard.

oh, so is this the same reason why floyd didnt wanna fight them also?

Floyd was retired. Manny was the WBO ww champ. He had a reason to fight Spence, Thurman or Crawford instead of Horn.
