MANILA, Philippines — “This is one of the easiest damn southpaws Floyd is going to have a fight with.”
Papers? Check. Signatures? Check.
Trash talk? It’s on.
Floyd Mayweather Sr. wasn’t exactly good-natured when talking about Manny Pacquiao and how the Filipino boxing champion would fare against his son Floyd Jr. on May 3.
“I’m just trying to tell you, they gonna see when it’s time to go in the ring. Ain’t nothing to talk about,” the elder Mayweather told Fight Hype.
Mayweather said his son would “outthink” Pacquiao in their mega fight, with Mayweather running circles around Pacquiao.
“Pacquiao has no footwork, he blocks with his face, and he can’t even spell defense. He’s the most hittable man in the world,” said Mayweather.
And he wasn’t done yet.
He added that his son would “dominate” Pacquiao “so bad” the eight-division world champion would be seeing stars.
“Floyd gonna hit him so easy. Floyd will dominate him bad. He gonna paralyze him. Floyd got a good chance of knocking him out.”
Confidence at its finest.
