Manny Pacquiao vs Floyd Mayweather Not Yet decided
Manny Pacquiao vs Floyd Mayweather Not Yet decided: According to bleacher report sources . essentially argued that Mayweather, an undefeated champion looking at the other side of the mountain, was putting off a fight by demanding unprecedented and strict Olympic-style performance-enhancing drug testing. I claimed he did this out of fear.
The premise for this fear, I said, was Pacquiao’s furious barrage attacks, dynamic left-handed stance, ridiculous speed, and knockout power.
I also echoed a rumor that Floyd Mayweather Sr., former trainer to the demolished Ricky Hatton and father of the undefeated champion, had warned his son about Pacquiao.
Additionally, I compared their records against a couple common opponents.
It’s time to tuck the bias back in. Zip it up. Show a little modesty.
Neither Floyd Mayweather nor Manny Pacquiao fears the other fighter. Their only fears are directly related to their selfish prides.
Floyd isn’t afraid of a barrage of punches from odd angles; he’s confident in his defense.
He doesn’t worry about what Manny did to Oscar De La Hoya or Ricky Hatton; he’s not those men.
Mayweather’s straight right is like nothing in Hatton’s or De La Hoya’s repertoires. Manny knows this; and Floyd knows this.
From the Latimes News Manny Pacquiao’s promoter announced just after midnight Pacific time that the Filipino superstar boxer will pursue other opponents after hearing no indication whether Floyd Mayweather Jr. wants to fight him in a bout that has the potential to be the most lucrative event in the sport’s history.
Pacquiao promoter Bob Arum, in a conference call with reporters that began minutes after Arum imposed a Friday midnight deadline for Mayweather to express interest, said staging a Pacquiao-Mayweather super-fight on Nov. 13 in Las Vegas is in grave danger as he works to “secure another opponent.”
“Floyd, for whatever reason, didn’t want to commit,” Arum said.
Arum said he’s previously laid out plans detailing Pacquiao’s terms to HBO Sports President Ross Greenburg, who Arum said he believed forwarded the information to Mayweather manager Al Haymon. Arum said Greenburg performed as a type of “mediator” in the deal.
