Mayweather-Marquez Postponed




The somehow predictable thing has just happened. I'm not saying that this is a farce since I'm not by PBF's side but this does not surprise me. After retirement, one cannot expect PBF to be actually in shape. If this is really an injury, it's not how hard he trained but rather how his body was unprepared for the training. Boxers train hard all the time and to be injured during training tells much about how unprepared the boxer's mind and body is.

On the other hand, if this is one of PBF's delaying tactics then the same can be said. PBF is not yet ready for his comebacks. This might be one of his mind-games where he wait it out because he has an X% chance of losing.

I'm wondering what's actually the real score. But whatever the real reason is, PBF is not yet ready. If he wasn't injured, Marquez would probably injure him on June 18. The big question is what could be the implication of this to the possible fight between Pacman and PBF considering that Manny might run for Congress. We'll see...

Speaking of Congress... If con-ass pushes through and Manny Pacquiao win a congressional seat next election, there is a slim chance that we would have Pacman as prime minister... I shudder at the thought...

Reaction to Mayweather vs ESPN's Brian Kenny

Yesterday I came across this entry by Tim Sparks. This entry features two recent Mayweather interviews which basically can be summed up by any mind as "It's all in the money" and "I may have fought mediocre fighters but still I'm undefeated so I'm the P4P king". That's PBF for you. Good Job Mr. Kenny. Your questions were straight to the point but they hit the spot. As for PBF's answer, as the video progresses it becomes more and more shall we say... selfishly self-indulgent.

I hope Bob Arum, or whoever is promoting the fight (if ever PBF wins over JMM), would cough up enough dough to make it happen. Or else, PBF might again just settle to waiting it out again. It's all business.

Seeing this, I'm undecided if I want a PBFvsPAC or JMMvsPAC given that the winner of PBFvsJMM would face Manny. Eitherway I wish someone would clear the air out of this guys head.
