Boxing: Floyd Mayweather Is Pissed! Tells Pacquiao No Rematch, He Won’t Buy Into BullSh*t!
Floyd Mayweather is pissed!! Just a few days after telling the word via a text message to Stephen A Smith that he would give Manny Pacquiao a rematch after his shoulder heals from surgery, he is now calling it off and changing his mind.
@IamJoeSports
The money man is now changing his mind and claims he will not give Manny Pacquiao a rematch because he is basically angry the Pacquiao camp continues to use the shoulder excuse as to why Manny lost the fight, instead of giving Floyd credit for beating him.
“Did I text Stephen A. Smith and say I will fight him again? Yeah, but I change my mind. At this particular time, no, because he’s a sore loser and he’s a coward,” Mayweather told Showtime’s Jim Gray in an interview taped this week that will air Saturday night (Showtime, 9 p.m. ET) during the network’s replay of last Saturday night’s pay-per-view mega fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
“If you lost, accept the loss and say, ‘Mayweather, you were the better fighter,'” Mayweather continued.
As you know, Floyd won the fight pretty convincingly in most peoples eyes, including the judges. Mayweather out-punched him and out worked him, but Pacquiao definitely threw enough punches to make it hard to believe the shoulder was bothering him that much.
“I’m not going to buy into the bulls— … and I don’t want the public to buy into the bulls—,” Mayweather said. “He lost. He knows he lost. I lost a lot of respect for him after all of this.”
Gray asked Mayweather if he could detect a problem with Pacquiao’s right arm during the fight, to which Mayweather answered, “Absolutely not. He was fast. His left hand was fast. His right hand was fast and he was throwing them both fast and strong. Excuses, excuses.”
Floyd is saying this now but could sing a different tune once he again remembers how much money could be made with a rematch. As someone who watched the fight I have to feel where he is coming from. The after story became all about Pacquiao’s shoulder instead of the dominance Floyd displayed throughout the night. At the very least they should have given Floyd his due and then discussed what made have caused the loss despite being out-boxed.

This fool didn’t out box anyone. He out RAN his opponent. There was no toe to toe boxing in that bout. Here was plenty run and hide tho. The “run around the ring till the bell rings” style is now called strategic boxing! THAT’S THAT BULLSHIT!!
I don’t understand how he was the “runner” but he threw and landed more punches. Lol. But let’s just say he did “run”, you “Floyd haters” say he “run” in every fight. Manny and Roach had plenty of time to come up with a strategy to stop “The Running”, but like the previous 47 components…HE FAILD!
Get out ya feelings my nigga.
You’re a complete dumbass. He out punched him by landing the most his stupid fk. That’s why he’s a runner flyods punches was trash and who ever wrote this is trash ass well just a run weather fan.
He didn’t win…Yes Floyd is the defense king but the art of boxing is BEING ABLE TO TAKE A HIT AS HARD AS YOU THROW A HIT….Obviously that’s not the case wit Floyd…EVERYTIME Manny hit that nigga…He either ran or held him…400+ punches??? More like 400+ love taps…lolz…Floyd was looking like Kylie Jenner after the fight…lolz..So FOH wit this bs Floyd and y’all groupies gotta say…
I can see both of you never box be for specially Miss tee because you have no idea what your talking about people shouldn’t talk if they dont know what they are talking about
Everybody feel the same way in my city as Misstee and Brox senior run around the ring it was just bull with the money to buy on pay per view #TALLAHASSEE
Runweather whatever possessed you is influencing your mind to turn things around, you are the coward and the sore loser because you are the one who keeps wasting the rounds time by hugging Pacquiao and Bayless did not even give you a penalty even if you were repeatedly doing it. What you have shown the world is not Real boxing where you engage your opponent in TOE to TOE not in HEEL to HEEL with your running. Coward.
i know boxing got its rules but the magic of a fight is lost when ya fairy tap to get points instead of going toe to toe , hug hold because your afraid he will plant one on you stay back be safe, he might get tired boxing looks lazy when boxers go for the easy fight because there to afraid
Yall don’t know shit about boxing the art of boxing is to hit and not to get hit .. Ali dance all around the ring even gave it a song float like a butterfly sting like a bee and he is 1 of the greats Floyd do it he’s running FOH … This is a different era back then niggas ddnt have no defense and every fighter who fought like dat is either dead or have brain truama today …punch stats don’t lie manny got out worked and got hit more of its any1 to blame it’s manny manny from round 1 on he wasn’t fighting his fight ….
Jersey, please school us, because i fail to see why what mayweather did made him win…
Im not a Pac or Money fan, but curious, i know boxing is the art of hitting and not getting hit, BUT when PacMan has him on the ropes , i heard those body shots do not count as points or count as just ONE (could be wrong) but when mayweather taps him (I cannot in all consciousness call those jabs), those count as individual points i.e. he got a bulk of his points that way. that is a flaw if you ask me, PacMan could have had him on the ropes and punished his body and won EASILY.
And in all honesty NO ONE is denying Mayweathers defense, that thing is impressive and impenetrable. but i do not see any offense (but a few punches) and that should not make him a winner. you want to call yourself a fighter , you actually have to FIGHT!!!
If they only go by the stats what’s the point of judges going to the fight or even having judges. They can just read the stats and call a winner. ……..
If he was just tapping him y he ain’t just walk through that shit he just better. If niggas ain’t hating you aint doing smth right
By the way people said all Muhammad Ali would do is dance or shuffle. Ali was a defensive boxer too and made the brawlers like: Joe Frazier, George Forman, Ken Norton, Ernie Shavers, Leon Sphinx, Floyd Patteson and Sony Liston look like amateurs. Yet these men said in the end Ali beat them no excuse like Manny Paquiao had.
Everybody on here talking that toe-to-toe bullshit is an idiot that knows nothing about boxing. It not a fucking Street fight… It’s BOXING. And Floyd is arguably the best that every did it. The stats and FILM speak for themselves. What the fight again tonight and see how many CLEAN shots Floyd lands to the head and midsection. Call it running if you want, the man is a superior boxer, who controls every fight he’s every been in. His true brilliance inside and outside of the ring will only become clear to most long after he retires. History will show that his is TBE!! End of discussion.
