Backed-up in a corner bombarded by jabs and haymakers, Floyd Mayweather Jr. was left with nothing but his cheap shot, low blow tactics.
No, I'm not forecasting what would happen if Mayweather does indeed man-up and face someone like Manny Pacquiao or Shane Mosley in the future. I'm talking about his recent Sirius Shade 45 interview with rapper and hardcore boxing fan RA The Rugged Man.
After being pressured to answer real questions about his career like why he hasn't fought the best in his division and opted to fight an old boxer who is 17 pounds smaller than he is on top of the fact that he came in overweight for the fight, Mayweather shot back by saying he too came from the smaller weight classes. And when RA mentioned the smaller Manny Pacquiao and how he came from 106 (pounds) and actually outperformed him against the same fighters he faced in Dela Hoya and Hatton, Mayweather threw one of his low blows and said "the Philippines got the best enhancement drugs," which drew a healthy laugh from RA and other DJs in the booth (and the rest of the real boxing fans who were listening to the radio show and the clip posted online). How old is Floyd again? Because he just sounds like some kids in high school.
That was truly comical in so many levels I don't even know where to begin. Okay, first of all, since when did Floyd Mayweather Jr. know anything about the Philippines? Floyd, you know the Philippines as much as I know cross stitching- which basically means, you don't know jack sh*t about it. Enhancement drugs? Was Floyd dressed up as a clown for Halloween this year because he must be kidding unless he really just insinuated Filipinos are cheaters and that we use "roids" to juice up our fighters?
Correct me if I'm wrong but that's just how I interpreted what this dude was trying to say. The fact that he has lost his credibility through time with his bogus statements doesn't change the fact that its still what he's trying to imply right? So a Filipino can't properly move up in weight gradually and be the best? Pacquiao never tested positive for any form of drug and has never had any history being associated to any of it whatsoever.
Or was Floyd talking about some "male enhancement" drugs he purchased online from the Philippines that made his junk bigger? I don't even know if such things exist, but if he is, and we all obviously know he wasn't, its unfortunate that those enhancement drugs didn't help him grow some "cojones" too while he was at it so he can finally take on real challenges and fight the best in the business.
Word of advice to Floyd: Walk the walk man, and you won't even have to do any talking. With that said, you prefer to battle it out with your mouth. So just as good you are as a talker when it comes to selling your fights, be happy with your money and forget about your legacy inside the ring because people may be dumb enough to buy your PPV fights, but real fans of the sport aren't that dumb to not realize you've ducked the best fighters in your division.
I'm telling you, if you haven't heard the interview yet, you should as RA held back no punches and gave Mayweather the dish on what real boxing fans think about his fraudulent claims of being the best. I hope somebody can forward this interview to Kevin Iole and his gang of "expert writers" who voted Mayweather back as the sport's number one pound-for-pound fighter quickly after he beat the smaller Juan Manuel Marquez last September 19. I know that the P4P list is a mythical list, which leads me to believe that Iole's knowledge of what a real fighter is, is mythical as well. If those writers are the "real experts", then I'd be more than happy to be called the biggest idiot- like RA, who obviously shares my opinions.
Commentary: For the first time, Floyd Mayweather Jr. was TKOed in a verbal boxing match...That is why he transformed into what he really is internally, just a little boy trying to use his excuses to hide is youthful fears, and he used his money and "O" record to convince himself that he is important too...truly he is a lil Floyd in a man's body. Thank you RA!
