Mayweather vs Pacquiao Is Not Happening Next, Says Roger Mayweather

Roger Mayweather knows more than anyone else what is in his nephew’s mind when it comes to Pacquiao. When he says Floyd’s never going to fight Pacquiao, you’d better believe it.

I don’t think he was talking about promoters, and he didn’t seem to be talking about Pacquiaos refusal to take blood tests. (How could he? He doesn’t speak for Pacquiao. Hasn’t Pacquiao recently agreed to take all of the tests?)

 Poor Mayweather, his “monkey wrenches” are not working. One after the other they get pushed aside. First, it was 60-40, Pacquiao gets 40. He even went as far as saying Pacquiao deserved only 30%! Then he demanded a larger ring, bigger gloves, and his name before Pacquiao’s on the marquee, etc. As you can see, all were designed to elicit rejection.

Now for the Olympic-style blood testing- Do you really believe Mayweather is sincere about “cleaning up” boxing? It’s awfully strange coming from a wife beater, a security guard poker, a Benjamin burner, a cheater at weigh ins, a cheap potshotter, and an ingrate son who embarrasses his father in public. The list goes on and on.

The current monkey wrench, Olympic-style blood tests, has lasted longer than the others because of Pacquiao’s rejection of it. Recognizing an opportunity, Mayweather exploited it, squeezing every last energy from it, hiding behind it, feeling confident that Pacquiao never was going to budge.

Mayweather is dead wrong. It took longer than usual, but now Pacquiao has consented. Pacquiao swallowed his pride just to get the fight going for the fans, for the biggest paychecks in the world! I don’t think Mayweather expected this turn of event. Now he is anxious, very anxious! You can see it by his bizarre behavior which worsens each time we see him on TV- hyper-speech, manic one moment, rambling at 100 miles an hour, stuttering and stammering incoherently, then docile with child-like smile on his face the next. Good acting. He verbally assaulted 80-year-old Larry Merchant on camera and his own father too. Underneath his façade is scary!

Well, he is going to demand that the US Doping agency do the testing, Pacquiao’s camp says no, they believe it is biased towards Mayweather; they’re insisting that the umbrella agency the world anti-doping agency, which they feel is impartial, do the testing.

Do you see what’s happening here? Pacquiao’s camp’s insistence ironically gives Floyd a new monkey wrench, one that is shock-proof and as solid as Mt Gibraltar. So what if Pacquiao subsequently agrees to let the US anti-doping agency do the testing! So what if Pacquiao comes out clean as clean can be! So what if Mayweather never really believed that Pacquiao was taking performance drugs! In Mayweather’s mind there’s only one thing that’s important: a truly fool proof monkey wrench. If Pacquiao comes out with a clean slate after going through all of the tests, Mayweather can always claim that he is not convinced the test are complete and accurate, regardless of the administering agency.

The haunting started right after Mayweather unretired and Pacquiao demolished Hatton, the Hatton who gave Mayweather hard time, wobbling him badly in the 1st round. If only thiis fight had occurred before Mayweather made his grandstand unretirement announcemen!, not one day afterwards. Because the fight occured when it did, Mayweather found himself in a hole. He’s lived three years in it. Can you imagine what his life had been during those years? Pacquiao’s ghost was haunting him 24/7! To say that Mayweather and Pacquiao should be their own promoters so that the fight could get going is kind of farfetched, don’t you think? If you could have read Uncle Roger’s mind when he said what he said about his nephew, you’d be having de ja vu now.
