"Man nobody expected Lil Floyd to look the way he did against Marquez," stated world-renowned trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. as he shared his thoughts on his son's impressive unanimous decision victory over Juan Manuel Marquez. Mayweather Jr. was so dominant in his performance, controlling the action throughout, that he practically pitched a shutout on all three scorecards against arguably the second best boxer in the world. Obviously proud of his son's nearly flawless victory, Mayweather Sr. issued a warning to Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao. "Pacquiao can forget about it now. He don't want none of Lil Floyd," he emphatically stated.
Never one to pull any punches, Mayweather Sr. made sure to point out Pacquiao's own struggles with Marquez in their previous 2 fights. "Everyone wants to talk about the weight. Weight aint have nothing to do with that. It was all about skill set. People are upset that Pacquiao was in a life and death fight with Marquez twice and Lil Floyd toyed with him," Mayweather Sr. added, "Pacquiao had the man down 3 times in one round and hurt bad and couldn't finish him. Not only could he not finish him, he got his ears boxed off after that, so what do you think my son would do to him?"
What would Floyd Mayweather Jr. do to Manny Pacquiao? That remains to be seen, but I'm sure there's a lot of Pacquiao fans who disagree with Big Floyd's assessment and would like to know just the opposite; what do you think Pacquiao is going to do to his son? Personally, I'm skeptical as to whether or not we'll ever get a chance to see the real "Dream Match" to determine the true "Number One/Numero Uno". However, the hype has already begun and the heat is on to make this fight a reality. Mayweather may not need Pacquiao and Pacquiao may not need Mayweather, but boxing, as a sport, needs this fight to take place!
