One-dimensional Pacman bores Mayweather Jr
March 16, 2010 18:48:25

Floyd Mayweather Jr. belittled Manny Pacquiao’s dominant win over Joshua Clottey over the weekend, stressing the 12-round title fight was boring and exposed the Philippine pride as a one dimensional fighter.

"I think Pacquiao got exposed in that fight for being one-dimensional. You can have all the offense ability in the world, but with no defense, you’re not going to last long against a good counter puncher such as myself," he said in an interview.

To prove his point, he said a defensive fighter like Clottey who threw punches by a spurt, had Pacquiao all busted up by the end of the match, obviously referring to the small bruise the Filipino had just under his right eye.

"When was the last time you’ve seen my face all messed up like that?" asked Mayweather, who was once known as "Pretty Boy" Floyd but changed his nickname to "Money" Mayweather. "That’s the difference between an amateur and a true pound-for-pound boxer."

And he keeps talking and talking and talking. They will be 50 before they end up fighting.

Pacquiao is more popular than Mayweather and has achieved more. I'd also say he's alot less boring than Floyd is. For one, Manny knows how to, as Kenny puts it, finish fights.

'Pretty Boy' needs to man up and take the fight. If he's content with trying to win a war of words then he must not be as good as I think he is.

Meh, I think they'll end up fighting sooner than some are making it seem. Too much money on the table for either side to pass it up. I really think more than anything this back-and-forth is just well crafted hype for the fight. Arum knows what he's doing as does Mayweather and Dana White giving his opinions on it are passing on that hype to MMA fans without knowing it or not. Plus, we get one more awesome fihgt out of it, Mosley-Mayweather. I'll take that.

I agree, I think Money just has to wrap up his business with Mosley (not that I'm implying he'll walk right through him because he does have his hands full) Then him and Pac will eventually settle it.

Then again there is a good possibility he looses to Shane, could you imagine?

That would be a dream come true for me.

I can't wait to see Mayweather trash Pacman infront of everyone like hes done against his last 41 opponents. The outcry would be hilarious especially if he beats him then retires. There is noone left for him to fight and for a possible $50,000,000 Pacman is too much of a coward to piss in a cup and get his blood drawn like Mosley.

Anyone who turns a fight of this caliber down because of a simple drug test is just dumb. My hat goes off to Mosley for manning up. Even in defeat surely he must be laughing his way to the bank.
