Unhappy with Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Image: Unhappy with Floyd Mayweather Jr.By Eamon Mcdonald: Honestly, Floyd Mayweather Jr. upsets me so much and I’m only an armchair fan. I live in Ireland so it’s extremely difficult to get a ticket for a big fight. Mayweather is a great boxer, he knows the sport well and has been blessed with great ability. It’s a shame, though, that his style often makes for awful fights that fail to excite whilst Juan Manuel Marquez, Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, Shane Mosley, to name a few, don’t get paid as much as him (well, Manny Pacquiao does now). In my views, their fights are much more exciting because they are willing to spill blood to win a fight.

Mayweather stunned Marquez in their bout and didn’t even try to finish him off. Seriously like, if Mayweather had gone for broke and Marquez countered him, I doubt very much that it would’ve hurt Floyd all that much due to Marquez not being strong enough at that weight. I’m especially not happy with Mayweather over the random blood test that he’s trying to implement for his mega fight with Pacquiao.

If and when this fight does happen, I hope Pacquiao wins so that people will finally stop watching Floyd’s fights. Many boxing fans watch Mayweather because they want him to lose. The sad thing is after the Pacquiao fight is over, and if Mayweather wins, Floyd probably won’t go after the dangerous fighters like Paul Williams and Mosley, and will probably stick to fighting smaller opponents.

If World Boxing Council welterweight champion Andre Berto manages to beat Mosley in their fight next month in January, I look forward to hearing Mayweather’s excuse if he decides to not fight the winner.
