Styles make fights, it’s a term often talked about in the sport of boxing, and it means that a certain style — regardless of record or fights against common opponents — can make for a great fight and lead to success against what some think is a superior fighter. More often than not it’s a phrase that rings true, and after the success that Marcos Maidana had against p4p #1 Floyd Mayweather Jr, many people believe that another aggressive fighter in Manny Pacquiao could do even better and be the person to give Mayweather his first defeat.
In part 2 of my interview with Floyd Mayweather Sr, he discusses his son’s future and how long he believes his son will fight. Floyd also gives his thoughts on the comparisons to Maidana’s and Pacquiao’s style and if he believes that Pacquiao could bring a similar fight plan against his son. Additionally Mayweather talks about the fans that believe that Maidana beat his son. Here is what Floyd Mayweather Sr. had to say. (Copyright – Must give full credit to On The Ropes and link to article)
Jenna: As a father, do you still want to see your son continue to fight? He’s made so much money, he doesn’t have to fight anymore.
Mayweather Sr: Sometimes things are rooted for people to try things, in whatever it is. I’m just saying this right now, there’s a thing about Marciano right now, the surpassing of Marciano. I guess that’s what he would probably be at.
Well , I think he has to be 50-0 to surpass Marciano. They got 3 more fights, I’m more than sure that if Floyd gets to the 49, I’m pretty sure they’ll come up with that fight. I think my son will win against Maidana, then we’ll see what else happens.
Jenna: After your son’s fight with Maidana, you will hear a plethora of fans that are all saying that Manny Pacquiao would do better now against your son. What do you think about that?
Mayweather Sr: No, no, no. Oh shit, Manny Pacquiao wouldn’t do shit. Manny Pacquiao is nowhere near that wild, nowhere near. Plus, Manny Pacquiao ain’t wearing no 165lbs either. Everything you’re talking about, it makes a difference.
Manny Pacquiao is nowhere near that big or that size, to even jump all over Floyd. I’m just saying, it won’t happen and it’s not even in the cards. Manny Pacquiao can jump all over Floyd if he wants to get knocked out, that’s what’s gonna happen with him.
Jenna J: Floyd, in your honest opinion who do you think is the better fighter, Marcos Maidana or Manny Pacquiao?
Floyd Mayweather Sr: Oh for sure Pacquiao is the better fighter, Maidana can’t fight at all! He’s a wild MMA fighter, that’s what he is. He don’t have no craft, no abilities to do shit. He ain’t even got a good damn jab.
Jenna: So you think Pacquiao is a much better technical and seasoned fighter?
Mayweather Sr: Pacquiao ain’t technical, but he’s more technical than this man here. This man is not technical at all.
Jenna: So you think it was the unorthodox style of Maidana that made it a tough fight?
Mayweather Sr: No, Maidana just can’t fight, that’s it. It ain’t nothing about him being technical this or technical that, there ain’t nothing technical about him, period. He just can’t fight.
Jenna: So what do you have to say to the people that actually believe Pacquiao can beat your son after watching that fight?
Mayweather Sr: People can believe what they want to believe, they’ll find out just like they found out with him, just like they found out with Maidana. It’s so plain to see that a blind man can see that Floyd would whoop him.
Jenna: Before the fight you said that you believed your son was gonna knock out Maidana. Is that something that you don’t see happening for your son?
Mayweather Sr: Well my son is a boxer. If Floyd would have done what his daddy told him to do, he would have stopped him. He didn’t do that so it didn’t happen, but he did whoop Maidana’s ass, that is true.
Then try to entice your son to fight the Pacma, period….
hey papi if you think ur son is unbeatable your wrong.maidana exposed him and barely lose. F.Y.I. Ur son is just a mediocre the 46-0 of ur son is nothing compare to the great chavez. Floyd is an average coward and cherrypicker boxer!
THE MAYWEATHER’S NEW P L O Y
pursuant to their success in preventing maidana from using the same gloves he’s always used, they could now lure pacquiao into a fight but P R E V E N T him from using hte 8oz. clito rys gloves he’s always used. the gloves that inflicted PAIN & TORTURE & LUMPS & LOTS OF LUMPS UPON HIS OPPONENTS that helped break their wills and gave the wins for pacquiao (w/c events the mayweathers all saw as they cringed with every blow that pacquiao landed. ALL KNEW PLOY COULD NOT WITHSTAND SUCH PAIN AND TORTURE which was the reason they came up with all sorts of ploys through the years to avoid paq). they all saw how paquiao’s hands would swell after a fight and couldn’t shake hands with his fans. but if they fight, IT WILL BE PLOY’S FACE THAT WILL SWOLLEN AND NOT PAQ’S HANDS. he’ll lump him up, slice him up, bust him up, cut him up and break his will making floyd deathly afraid for his health YOU ALL HEARD AND SAW HIM SAY IT IN A PANIC ON VIDEO. yet many are still in denial. LOL!!!
but if pacquiao is desperate enough for money (which he might be in order to pay his back taxes and new assessments) he just might accept it. and it will be the end of pacquiao’s career as ploy will make him look like an amateur. ploy is the quicker of the two and if trapped will always clinch but otherwise ploy will just pot shot him all night and will look the TBE he always claimed to be. pacquio will not win a single round, guaranteed.
PACQUIO CAN ONLY WIN AGAINST PLOY MAYWEATHER BECA– USE HE CAN INFLICT PAIN AND TORTURE AND FLOYD NEVER EXPERIENCED THAT BEFORE. SURELY THAT WILL CA– USE THE PAIN OVERLAOD THAT WILL SHUTDOWN PLOY’S VAUNTED RING IQ & BRAIN FUNCTION ALL TOGETHER. but with POWDER PUFF sparring gloves ploy mayweather will be IMPERVIOUS TO ANYTHING PACQUIAO BRINGS. remember that.
the fight just might happen after all.
Hey floyd sr.!… that guy you said that can’t fight have won a fight to your son! if the judges scored it right… how come a 10 punches landed by floyd win against 20++ punches and busyness by maidana ? now… pacquiao will annihilate flyod if the fight happens now continue ducking pac chicken!
flyod is like canelo …wil be expose by the pacman
I SCORED THE FIRST 5 ROUND TO MAIDANA..ROUNDS 8, 11, AND 12 IS CRYSTAL CLEAR MAIDANA..MAIDANA SHOULD HAVE WON..LOOK AT THE TAPE AND WATCH CAREFULLY THE ROUNDS THAT I SAID..IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN 115-113 WIN FOR MAIDANA
I AGREE..THE FIRST FIVE ROUNDS FLOYD WAS SURPRISE AND DIDNOT KNOW WHAT TO DO..MAIDANA DOMINATED THE FIRST HALF..SO HOW IN THE WORLD 117-112 CAME UP..UNLESS THAT JUDGE WAS PAID…HE SHOULD BE BANNED ALSO JUST LIKE CJ ROSS.
It was easy to see that the fight was scripted. They made it appear that Floydiot Jr had a hard time against Maidana when in fact , in terms of skill, Maidana is way below the talent of Floydiot Jr. He robbed fans with their hard earned money. But good to learn that PPV for this fight is much lower indicating that some fans refused to be fooled again and did not watch the fight live. In fact in some countries not a single theater opened to show the fight and no TV station aired this boring fight!!!!
As for Mr. FMJ, Sr., FMJ will whoop PACMAN and so on and so forth. The same old story. Why don’t Floyd, Jr. prove that inside the ring. C’mon, Floyd, Jr., if you are really a world champion, why don’t you face PACMAN? You want to surpass Marciano’s record? That is foolish, baloney, and insanity.. Try erasing it by fighting PACMAN.
Floydiot Sr. said Hatton will whip the ass of Manny. And look what happened to Hatton? He got KO’d viciously in the second round. And where did Floydiot Sr go? He was nowhere to be found near the fallen boxer. He suddenly ashamed of being the trainer of Hatton. So, the lesson is, when it come to the fights of Pacquiao don’t listen anything Floydiot Sr is saying.
stupid pApi how could gayweather ur son stood in a full force arsenal of pacquiao when he was hit even by a slower fighter like maidana and even cotto?!.Are u in drugs ?! if pac landz 20 torpedo punch in ur son face he will surely sink!,mark my words.
SIlly diselusioned old hoodrat !
Maidana beat ur babyboy down . True he may not be a technical boxer as such , he damn sure new how to make your babyboy twotone (black and blue) hahahahahahahaha !
It never ceases to amaze me how the whole mayweather “gang” come up with more and more excuses . And then again they generally bring up the old lame excuses as well .
I’m American and I would never give my support to this bumm fagweather or Bronerhead (Hokins also) . Best place for them both is back in incarciration with their own kind !
Well there we have it. Straight from the horses mouth. They are saving the BEST for last because they know that pacquiao is the best… nuff said
Im so sick of floyd senior hes gonna get his soon knocked out
Cuz he sucks as a trainer. The whole time against maidana he was telling floyd
To keep his hands up nd dig wtf kind of instuctions r those ? He shouldve been
Telling him to get off first in the center of the ring nd when maidana charges give him a stiff
Jab nd slip to bring it back to the center of the ring to avoid the ropes. Roger is the better
Trainer floyd sr is retarded nd his sons gonna lose under him.
Its plain and simple Floydiot Jr & Sr are scared of Pacquiao. If Jr believes he is a lot better than Pacquiao then there should not be one single reason not to face Pacquiao. The issue of Olympic style lood testing has been laid to rest with Pacquiao agreeing even though Nevada boxing commission has its own system which has been used since time memorial. Floydiot said Manny is only after nig money whihc is why he wants to fight him. To this, Pacquiao challenge him for a winner take all. Then Floydiot looked for another alibi saying he will not fight Pacquiao if he is still promoted by Arum. If Pacquiao leaves Arum what would be Floydiot’s next excuse? This idiot is hopeless!!!!
Now even the real Greatest of All boxer challenged Floydiot Jr to face Pacquiao. Unfortunately, his appeal fell on deaf ears. Floydiot Jr is indeed a special kind of boxer who is greedy and only thinks about himself. He should retire now that the fans will no longer expect him to fight the best boxers there is. Guys find the clip in youtube compiling the one-thousand-and-one reasons why Floydiot Jr will never ever face Pacquiao. They are outrageous and at the same time unreasonable.
Once niggro all way’s a niggro.
Looks like the megafight with Pacman will happen when Floyd gets 50-0 record. It’s gonna be in 2016. Let’s see what happens.
Come on you guys!
We know Floyd, Floyd Sr. and Manny.
Everyone has a unique character.
I am a big Pac fan and will bet that Manny will beat Floyd when they square off in the ring. I also like Floyd whatever he does and also has a photo taken with Mayweather Senior. It does not stop me from being a boxing fan.
You heard Senior. When Floyd fights Pac that would be the biggest fight in the world on Floyd’s 49th or 50th fight correct me if I am wrong.
Meanwhile Floyd will beat on Khan for his 47th win ( which also I am a fan of and will probably root for Khan in Vegas) . Beat Maidana for his 48th win in a rematch. And then fight Pac on his 49th fight. You heard it first here.
Either Floyd will get stopped by Pac going for the 49th or beat Pac by close decision and fights him again on his 50th and last fight.
You heard it here first.
BTW – Jenna thx for your interviews and its always good except for the Bernard interview which is a waste of time last time out.
