I wonder if Top Rank and Manny Pacquiao really want to fight Mayweather

March 11, 2012 By Joseph Rukoro 14 Comments

By Joseph Rukoro

In my honest opinion, Floyd Mayweather Jr. is currently the best pound for pound boxer in the world today.

You may not like the man because of his talkative persona and flashy ways, but he backs up his talk every time he enters the boxing ring.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. is a very slick and clever boxer, and he can also slug it out with his opponent if the occasion requires it.

I like Manny Pacquiao because he is such a decent and humble person. But is Manny Pacquiao in Floyd’s class as a boxer? — I will say no.

Pacquiao refusing Olympic style random blood testing and $40 million upfront, it makes me skeptical whether or not Top Rank promotions (Bob Arum) and Manny Pacquiao actually want this super-fight with Mayweather to happen.

Thanks & Kind Regards
