Mayweather: «I'd Fight Pacquiao, Mosley is a C-Lister»

26 Feb 2010 00:53       hits 19917 Print version

Floyd Mayweather Jr. continued to take aim at his May 1 opponent,
Shane Mosley, and his potential future opponent, Manny Pacquiao. Speaking
with allhiphop.com , Mayweather spoke about the broken negotiations for a
Pacquiao fight and said he’s willing to fight Manny but they both have to
undergo random drug testing. Once again he questioned Pacquiao’s abilities
and says he should take the tests if there is nothing to hide.

“I would love to fight Manny Pacquiao but it has to be fair. We have athletes
who live in our own country that lie to the American citizens about taking
certain enhancing drugs. Manny Pacquiao is not from this country and don't
even live in this country so imagine what he would tell the American people,"
Mayweather said.

“Manny Pacquiao was just an ordinary fighter and once he got over 25, 26, he
became extraordinary. That doesn’t happen in the sport of boxing so it has to
be something. I started off good in my career and all the way through my
career I’ve been dominating. I started off good and became great but you
don't start off ordinary and become extraordinary. If Manny Pacquiao has
nothing to hide, I never saw a man who didn't want to take a $25 million
dollar drug test.”

Mayweather said his name value is so high that it will take Mosley’s career
to the next level.

“I'm an A-lister. Shane is a C-lister. When you involve yourself with the
Mayweather brand, it takes you to the next level in the sport of boxing,”
Mayweather said. “Shane is a good fighter. He’s going to the hall of fame and
I know I’m going to the hall of fame so it’s good to have two fighters going
to the hall of fame in there.”

“I built myself up, to be the super bowl of boxing. When Floyd Mayweather
laces up the gloves, it's the all star game. I don't know how much longer
we'll be in the sport of boxing. They are constantly trying to build up a
fighter to beat Floyd Mayweather and I can't blame them.
