If you take Roger’s word as the truth, then you will have to take his word when he says that Floyd Mayweather Jr won’t fight Sergio Martinez. In fact, according to Roger Mayweather, he’s on the ‘inside’ so you have to believe his word and not others who are just speculating.
In a recent interview, Roger Mayweather colorfully explained how there’s no money in fighting Martinez. And if there’s no money, then there’s no point in fighting. Roger Mayweather quotes are from The Boxing Truth Radio: “Man that fight don’t mean sh*t. That fight don’t make no money. It’s about making money. That’s what you’re in the sport for. If the fight don’t make no money, then it don’t make no sense.” Roger was adamant that his nephew won’t fight Sergio. Forget the fact that Martinez is a champion in 2 weight classes. Forget the fact that Martinez (45-2) is regarded as one of the top 10 pound-for-pound fighters in the world. It all comes down to money. But we’re not just talking about a few dollars here. “Can he do a $100 million dollar fight with Martinez? Nope, ok then. So, it don’t make any sense.” Roger is probably right with this observation. But, Floyd could probably make $30 million
Speaking of Sergio, the guy is just waiting for a fight with someone. Last week, reports came out that he was Mayweather’s Plan B. However, Roger has clearly shot that down. Roger has $100 million stuck in his head. He thinks that Floyd Mayweather Jr should only take fights that earn him $100 million dollars. Roger believes that Floyd can make this much against Manny Pacquiao. It’s this very reason that Roger believes Floyd Jr won’t retire. Continue Reading on Page 2
Roger shot down all talk of Floyd Mayweather Jr retiring. “Don’t worry about that, he ain’t gonna take no 2 years off. He’s the hottest thing in Boxing. DO you think Floyd will walk away from $100 million with Pacquiao. No he won’t. He’s not stupid” Roger also goes on to predict what will happen if they do fight. In an interview with Reeklama, Roger said that Floyd Jr would kick Manny’s a*s like he did to Shane Mosley: “He [Floyd] ain’t going anywhere. Floyd is the best fighter in the sport. Why would he leave? If Manny Pacquiao takes the drug tests, Floyd will kick Manny Pacquiao’s ass. He knows he can’t fight without that sh*t in him.
That’s why he wouldn’t take the test. Shane Mosley is a tougher fight for my nephew than Pacquiao. And what happened to Shane? Floyd kicked his ass.” Click here for more Floyd Mayweather Jr articles Roger also responded to those who doubt what he says and like to speculate on what’s going to happen: “Don’t worry about what you say, worry about what I say. I’m on the inside. All I do is keep it real” Conclusion The world according to Roger goes like this: he knows everything and you don’t; Floyd is not retiring even though he said so; He will fight Manny and beat his a*s; There’s no money in fighting Sergio Martinez or Paul Williams; and that Manny Pacquiao is still on A-side meth and has taken steroids like Shane Mosley. It must be nice living in a world of denial and ignorance.
