Could Death of Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao Kill Boxing?
As little peeps and hints eke out of the Pacquiao-Mayweather negotiations, it’s becoming clearer by the day that Floyd Mayweather is the one who doesn’t want the fight and never has wanted the fight. He is afraid of being knocked out and physically humilated in front of the world and even the lure of almost all the money in the world will not be enough to encourage him to believe in his skills that pay the bills. Doubters, look at it this way: It may make dollars but it does not make sense to commit career suicide. And that’s what Floyd Mayweather is deathly aware of, that it could very well be career suicide to cliimb into the ring and get hit by the raging fists of Manny Pacquiao. “It’s all about making smart business decisions to move me up level.” You will never hear Richard Schaefer, Oscar De La Hoya, Floyd Mayweather Sr., Roger Mayweather, Devon Alexander, Tomasz Adamek, Ross Greenberg, Mark Taffett, Max Kellerman, Tim Smith, Teddy Atlas, Evander Holyfield or Jim Lampley describe
