At least Mayweather is fighting a tough, young, matchup in his return to the ring after 16 months.
Unlike Pacquiao who is once again searching the retirement scraps to fight Marquez (a fighter whom I mentioned Pacquaio dodged after beating in a tough split decision, after drawing his first fight with him.)
Why didn't Pacquiao give him the rematch everybody wanted to see three years ago after he won that close decision, was it because he was afraid of Marquez.
Even some boxing analysts are getting on Pac-Man for not giving a shot to any young fighters. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/mo...g_manny_p.html
I am actually a fan of both fighters but I just hate how Pacquiao gets treated like he is some god, and Mayweather gets thrown under the bus. It is just as much Pacquiao's fault this fight is not happening as it is Mayweather's. |
Ummm i'm not sure if you follow boxing but i certainly do and Victor Ortiz pulled the greatest Alex Burrows wimp out in the history of boxing when he got his ass knocked down by Maidana. Even though he knocked Maidana down 3 times he basically quit and gave the worst post fight speech in history.
"oh man i'm hurt. I can't believe this happened. I'm too good for this. I will prob never fight again." hahahahahahahahahahahah
Yeah this is pretty boy's next opponent. Sure he's young, but i wouldn't want to pay $60 to watch this guy fight. Lots of people are going to waste money for this crap.
