MAYEATHER FOUND ANOTHER CONVENIENT REASON TO CHERRY PICK OPPONENTS


PhilBoxing.com




Leonard Ellerbe, an adviser of Mayweather Junior told the Grand Rapids Press that “anyone who fights Mayweather will be subject to random blood testing. Floyd is out in front championing this effort to change the way the sport is handled in the future.”

On the surface, those indeed are stunning statements!

In reality however, Team Mayweather is again just blowing smoke.

If Mayweather was totally honest and respectful of the sport of boxing, such statements will really be taken in hook, line and sinker.

However Mayweather is a cheat so really any statement from him that supposedly deal with “honesty” should just be cast aside. They are nonsense!

Remember how he cheated Marquez at the scale?

And, remember why he does not like to fight in any other State other than Nevada? (Read: xylocaine)

How can a cheater ask for changes in how the sport is handled when he himself do not follow much less respect the rules?

But more importantly, there are state mandated boxing commissions that sets the rules and regulate the sports.

Who the hell Mayweather think he is that he can force additional rules just so to satisfy his whims and bloated ego?

Does he really think the good people seated at the Commissions will bow down before him and do whatever he likes?

What an egocentric!

Mayweather’s stand and the statements made are just another convenient ways to allow him to cherry pick his opponents.

If he can not cherry pick an opponent to assure victory, he will force the issue of blood testing with the hope that the opponent will get frustrated and not pursue the fight. Thus, Junior can claim that its not his fault the fight was not made.

It does not take an Einstein to know that Mayweather’s statements are just really just meant for him to avoid a fight with Manny Pacquiao.

Junior knows that Pacquiao will never bow down to him and submit to his stupid and unusual demands.

With that he can say that it’s not his fault if a fight with Pacquiao does not happen in the future.

What a cowardly way to allow him to keep his “no defeat” record!
