JEFF MAYWEATHER ON MAYWEATHER VS. PACQUIAO: "FLOYD WANTED TO FIGHT PACQUIAO WHEN PACQUIAO WAS AT THE PEAK"

By Ben Thompson | December 03, 2014

"This is a time for it to happen because it's getting to a point where the public is demanding it; everybody is demanding it, and that's been the case for the last I don't know how many years, but I think at this point, it has to happen just because of the fact that both of their careers are winding down. Especially Floyd. Floyd is already committed to his career only lasting one more year and I think this is the time to do it," stated world-class trainer Jeff Mayweather, who shared his thoughts on a potential mega-fight between his nephew, undefeated pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather, and 8-division world champion Manny Pacquiao. According to Jeff, people are completely wrong if they think that Floyd is the one who has refused to make the fight a reality.

"The one thing is this, first of all, they keep talking about Floyd didn't want the fight. Floyd wanted to fight Pacquiao when Pacquiao was at the peak of his career. Pacquiao didn't want to take a blood test because we know what he was doing. Everybody knew what he was doing. It ain't no secret. It ain't no secret and his own coach threw him under the bus. Freddie Roach said, 'Ariza was doing this and doing that,' but you not realizing by saying that, you're basically saying your fighter was dirty. You saying that this guy was dirty, but he was the one giving stuff to your fighter, so what does that mean? That just justifies why the fight didn't happen the first time," Jeff explained during a recent conversation with FightHype's Percy Crawford. "And then he was offered $40 million the next time. He's not gonna see that kind of money nowhere else. So now all of a sudden, he's coming at Floyd because he needs help. He needs Floyd; Floyd don't need you. Floyd gonna be fine if he never fights Pacquiao."

Jeff added, "His punching power is gone now. It's gone and of course nobody is ****** as to why it's gone. Like I said, it's a fight that should happen, but at the same time, when it does happen and what happens does happen, which we all know...he should've signed the damn contract when Floyd signed the contract for the fight. It's a no-win situation for Floyd, but at the end of the day, it's what the people want and eventually Floyd gonna give the people what they want."

How about floyd and his "vampire facials" aka blood doping?

Much of the video jas posted was in poor taste but I thought Floyd made an excellent point about getting tattoos after each fight and his team claimed he was afraid of needles.

pacquiao didn't want blood taken out right before the fight because he felt thats one of the reasons he lost to morales.

People don't bring it up because they want to give Mayweather credit. They bring it up because it's Pacquiao's most famous moment in the ring. Whenever anyone mentions Pacquiao the first thing they'll remember is how he got KTFO motionless. Like Tyson is most remembered for biting Holyfields ear.

I'm willing to give all my points to anyone who can post a video, right now, of Mayweather calling out Pacquiao without any ridiculous demands!

And please don't post the most recent "call out" because he speaks about his 40 million dollar offer and says that Pacquiao can't expect that anymore....is he kidding? Pac can earn up to 30 mill fighting in China, why would he go in to the biggest financial fight in history and not even at the very least get 40? lol

Call out my arse
