If the handlers of Manny Pacquiao
and Floyd Mayweather succeed in dotting the Is and crossing the Ts, the outcome of the fight being proposed for November 13 will end in Mayweather’s favor.Roger Mayweather, the former world champion and uncle of Floyd, told the website examiner that “Pacquiao is going to get his ass whipped just like Shane Mosley.”
Roger also trains his nephew and is supremely confident that the Filipino won’t stand a chance.
“It’s actually going to be much easier (for Floyd),” said Roger, referring to the lopsided win scored against Mosley last May 1.Admitting that the pairing is “the only fight that makes sense,” Roger remains unconvinced that the fight is going to take place owing to the touchy issue of random drug testing.
“Anytime a guy doesn’t want to take a drug test, it tells you a lot about a guy. If the fight doesn’t come off it’s because he doesn’t want to take the test. If the fight doesn’t come off it won’t be because Floyd turned the fight down.”
Representatives from the two sides are currently in the thick of negotiations for the super showdown to happen.
Pacquiao has agreed to be tested as long as the latest will be 14 days before the fight and that only a reasonable amount should be taken from him.
Team Mayweather hasn’t responded to Pacquiao’s bold move although there have been reports circulating that a new issue – revenue-sharing – has surfaced and that Mayweather is not amenable to a 50-50 split with Pacquiao.
