Tyson Thinks Pacquia Would Beat Mayweather

[Gazoo]

I just assumed he'd think Floyd would win. No biggie just kinda took me off guard. In past interviews he's said he didn't know.

Tyson was a puncher so it makes sense he would think the puncher would win.

Great advice when it comes to the hangers oners and leeches.

To bad Mike didn't learn that lesson before he fucked up so much of his money.

Fuck the part about the fight. He is giving Floyd life advice.

mike still making up his own language,, "he's extra extraordinary in his defensive skill" ,, gotta respect mikes honesty though,, you never feel like he's bullshitting you

at least he bounced back many cant do that

 

[exiledking]

Mike has really turned the corner. Living proof that it can happen for damn near anybody.

Really proud of him.

I can't wait to get to Vegas and see his one man show. props, champ!

Pacquiao has lost. He may lose again any day now. So I'm not sure Mayweather would be scared. He does act in that manner.

One thing's for sure the fight has lost it's appeal and would have been great for boxing.

This is true. Most of Mayweather's fans and even some of Pacquiao's fans think Mayweather would win. However, Mayweather's actions would seem to indicate he is fearful of something or at least considers Pac a serious threat. If Pacquiao was so easy, I think the fight would have happened by now considering how much money is on the table. Even though on a level of pure boxing, I would think Mayweather should win, if I had to bet, I would bet on Pacquiao because Mayweather doesn't seem as confident as his fans do. Even his pops said he doesn't like Mayweather to fight southpaws so maybe that's why.

You are still talking? About that steroids-charge bum who was ko'd with one punch,
and put down more times in round 3, than Mayweather has been in his career. Man sit
you hallucinating, delusional ass down.

He also thought Robin loved him.

What's wrong with what Tyson said, people say "extra extraordinary"...

 

[Nzinga]

A lot of people are shocked and impressed by his interviews. Dude does say some things that make you think.

16-years ago, I told people that Mike Tyson was a very lucid and intelligent fellow
and I remember one black man, a student at Carnegie Mellon University, checking
me and saying that Tyson was dumb.

Never the less, I disagree Mike Tyson's opinion on Mayweather and Pacquiao; all the
people who think Pacquiao would beat Mayweather assume that that Mayweather would
succumb to Pacquaio's power, none of them honestly think Pacquiao would outbox Mayweather.
Their opinion is based in the belief that something that no one has ever seen happen,
that of Mayweather crumbling under the pressure of another fighter would happen.
They discount the fact that Floyd has greater speed, accuracy and defense. The only
place you could argue for Pacquiao superiority is in the power area, and even that
though is questionable .... All the people who fight Floyd learn very quickly that he
can hit; he may restrain some of his power because to protect his fragile hands, but
Floyd can hit. Ask Juan Marquez whom Floyd wiped off the canvas, the same fellow people
think had beaten Pacquiao the 3 other times before he removed all down by putting the
little bitch down ...

Mike Tyson has fought neither Pacquiao nor Mayweather, so his opinion is of less
importance than that of Juan Manuel Marquez. Marquez has said that Mayweather
would wipe out Pacquiao...

This is a beautiful thread now.

People will hold on to the possibilities with the "styles make fights" line

Many will die holding on to the dream of Pacquiao beating Mayweather.

It was that important to a lot of people but at the end of the day......

Pacquiao cheated everyone of their dream in three ways
1.not testing
2.losing to bradley...(going to the cards period)
3.losing to marquez

I have said this for the past 3 years......

A lot of people will be SICK if Mayweather retires undefeated.

Looks like he will......only fights left are Alverez and Martinez.

Time is running out on many peoples dream of seeing Floyd on his back
at this point all many can do is speculate who he woulda lost to if.....lol

 

[Rick Ronson]

Its pointless at this point for mayweather

Yall already know what people will say.

Even if they go in hopeful on the way out they will say Mayweather
waited till it was safe to fight the kangaroo.

 

[Teknique310]

Pac & May not fighting 2 or 3 years ago is a disservice to the sport itself,the fans who still pay & also the main symptom in the slow slide in boxing popularity.

Politics ruins a lot of things.

Do you think the Patriots would have bypassed the Superbowl & playing Giants last year ? If after the AFC chamionship game. All they had to do was call themselves Superbowl champions.

Its the thing that has always kept boxing corrupt.

My Raiders should have just skipped the Broncos this past Thursday & declared themselves the victor. Thats how boxing lost its luster. You can just bypass threats & declare your the best.

Floyd was smart to keep his money out of his relation with
50c...Now if he wants to retire, let him do so...43-0 BABY!

That sounds like the world will never know how great Sugar Ray Leonard was
cause he didnt fight Aaron Pryor....as much as many hate it Floyd will go down
in history as one of the undefeated greats.

Pacquiao will get an Honorable mention and a HOF spot.

Sugar Ray ducking Pryor has been debunked a long time ago. It will hurt both Floyd and Pacquiao's legacy that the fight never took place. As it should. Some on BGOL seem to give Floyd a pass for his part in the non-fight. History will not. Both he and Pacman will drop a few places in the overall ranking.

Because Rocky Marciano fought all the black people who were challenging him
instead of his own bum ass cousin...and light heavyweight Ezzard Charles..

^ This right here....

It's a no win situation.

[Deacs]

Tyson believed he could beat bubba too... didn't happen
He thought he could beat Holyfield twice... he ate an ear once

Regardless as what a person believes, his beliefs are just as unfounded as those on Sportscenter and the rest of the boxing world which said Paq would win this fight... instead he took a nap

nah man its that the debate is stale

and anytime you bring up testing and 50 million the debate just spirals
out of control to the point you realize it aint even worth gettin heated 4.

most just act like $50million was never offered but ive seen many smoke screens.

im starting to realize that $50 million was to call Pacquiaos bluff and look how he reacted.

If you were in question about someone then offered $50mil and they backed out what would u do?

Debunked??? How?

You actually believe that?

Scared of a guy who has lost his last two fights,and knocked the fuck out in his last one

I could care less if they fight now,and both can eat shit for not fighting long ago...

Mayweather should be mad that he was not the one who knocked Manny out...
All that has happened to Pac the last two fights,were going to happen against PBF.

 

[Lexx Diamond]

Fuck Pacquia. I respect Mayweather, for putting Pacquia, on blast about steroids and demanding he adhere to the same standards as Mayweather. I wouldn't lower my standards to fight some slick talking fucker who's juicing. Knowing damn well I'd lose everything if I crossed that line. Let somebody offer me 50 million to fight and tell me all I have to do is get drug tested. I can't see any reason to not take the test other than being dirty.
