Don King will not allow himself to tell the truth that Floyd Mayweather is afraid to fight Manny Pacquiao, but the legendary promoter did not hold back his affections for the Filipino Destroyer.
I asked King last week if he loves Manny Pacquiao?
King replied: ?I love Manny Pacquiao. With Manny Pacquiao, I wouuld do a Thrilla in Manila 2. You gotta be able to go back to Ferdinand Marcos and Imelda Marcos. You got to go back to the Philippines, that was there who was our allies fighting the Japanese. You gotta go to Japan, Iwajima, Okinawa. Then when you do that you bring all the people in from all walks of life, those who are alive that still remember and those who are the young who should know and be taught of what it used to be. You gotta be able to deal with those types of things ? and then a fighter stands up and becomes a giant in the hearts and minds of those who are the unbelievers. And that is what counts, that the believers, they just exalt in his supremacy and his ability in his physical pursuit of excellence. Oh I?m so excited.?
