LAS VEGAS—Floyd Mayweather’s victory over Juan Manuel Marquez in September was totally one-sided but left us with little to remember.
So I think it’s fair to say that, in handing full-fledged WBO welterweight champion Miguel Cotto a wicked beatdown from start to finish over 33 minutes and 55 seconds Saturday night at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino, Manny Pacquiao also made this remarkably clear: that he has an extremely good chance to beat the unbeaten Mayweather.
I would not have added the “extremely” part until I witnessed this completely surgical takedown of the redoubtable Boricua Banger.
Now the only fight that public truly demands is Money May versus Money Pacquaio.
No ifs, no buts, no candy and no nuts.
The world wants this miniature edition of Ali vs. Frazier and it wants it soon.
I mean, is there any possible way Mayweather or his minions can criticize this classic Pacman performance?
I don’t see how especially when this bout was 100 times more enteraining the Floyd-Juan Ma boreathon. I enjoy a boxing clinic but, let’s face it, most fans don’t care for same.
The Pound for Pound king is Megamanny.
The world’s best welterweight is Manny.
The most exciting fighter on the planet is Pacquiao.
Memo to Mayweather: Make a deal, sign the contract.
Because if you don’t, your secret will be out.
Then we’ll all know that you fear Pacquiao, that you also believe he can hand you your first loss, take away that precious “O” on your record.
It’s time to put up or shut up, Mayweather.
Man up and sign to fight Manny.
If not, you can only bow down and kneel in Pacman’s direction and say, “I am not worthy.”
If this super bout isn’t made in short order, your secret will be exposed.
Then Mayweather’s Mannyphobia will be out of the closet
