Does Floyd Mayweather really have an Incentive to fight Pacquiao?


By Daniel Echevarria: Ok, I have thought about it like everyone else about why Mayweather won’t fight Manny Pacquiao and I believe this may be it. Think about it fight fans get rid of your own personal feelings about both fighters and put your emotional feelings on pause for the moment. Now if you are a fan of HBO 24/7 and you look at things critically and use your eyes to see pass the hype and trash talk and ego at the end of the day Floyd Mayweather is a very family oriented person. 

Let’s look at it. First off, Mayweather takes his kids skating every Sunday. His whole family pretty much is his camp like his uncles and his father and childhood friends. When he finally made up with his father he even said “Roger is my trainer but my dad is going to make some money too.” He criticized Mosley for firing his dad and once again said “You wrong, Mosley, for firing your dad. I love my dad I would never do that.” It was a joke but true. Remember if you will his whole demeanor changed on the last 24/7 when he spoke about how sick his dad and his uncle was.

So now I ask you fight fans if you where Floyd what real incentive can be presented to you to fight Manny Pacquiao? You already have the Big Mansion in Las Vegas one of the most exciting cities in the world, all the cars you could ever want and all the jewelry and furs you could ever want and all the clothes and all the fame and notoriety every fighter wants. And he even said “Boxing belts don’t mean sh%t; They just collect dust” so now championship belts don’t even mean anything to you.

You now have Philthy Rich Records, The Floyd Mayweather Foundation, New Fighters under Mayweather Promotions, an engagement to a gorgeous model Shantel Jackson. You make $50+ million for each fight and you only fight once a year to make that and you own yourself every time you do it, which has made you the face of boxing and now all roads lead to you. So I ask again fight fans why fight Manny Pac-Man Pacquiao to prove what? You’re the Best Maybe? Well Fact is you already believe you’re the best and believe your even better than Muhammad Ali and you already proved that you’re the best with the 5 belts you already own so what is Pac to you? Absolutely nothing.
