Thread: Mayweather: "Marquez Called Me Out, Pacquiao Didn't"

link --> Mayweather: "Marquez Called Me Out, Pacquiao Didn't

Floyd Mayweather Jr. claims the only reason he returned to the ring with a fight against Juan Manuel Marquez, instead of Manny Pacquiao, is because Marquez called him out on live television. A familiar response from Floyd. He said the same thing back in 2007, when Ricky Hatton called him out on live televsion and Mayweather, also retired at the time, returned to stop Hatton and then went back into retirement. Mayweather presented his case to scribe Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports.

“I’m fighting the guy who called me out,” Mayweather said. “Manny Pacquiao never called me out. You never heard him say that. But I was watching on TV and I heard Marquez call me out. So I said, ‘OK, if he wants some, he can have it.’ Any one of them, whoever, they know where to find me.”

Mayweather appears to be annoyed with the critics who continue to call his bout with Marquez a "physical mismatch." He told Iole that De La Hoya did the same thing in 2000 when he made Shane Mosley go from lightweight to welterweight, and then Oscar did a repeat last December when he made Pacquiao go from lightweight to welterweight. Mayweather and Marquez will clash at a catch-weight of 144-pounds.

“Why, if it’s good for Oscar, isn’t it good for me?” Mayweather asks.

“Marquez is one of the best fighters in the world. A lot of people, including me and including a lot of you in the media, think he beat Manny Pacquiao in both of them fights. So why do I have to hear this? It’s ridiculous.”

But why did PBF being so silent when Mosley, Paul Williams and Margacheato called him out before??

Oppsss... I heard you Floyd, Mosley, Paul Williams and Margacheato were not PPV attractions... JMM is more of a PPV attraction than Mosley and Margacheato...

i dont blame him for not fighting williams or Cheato. I still think he shouldve chose mosley. who knows maybe if pac doesnt fight mosley maybe floyd will take in some consideration after he beats JMM and mosley hasnt sealed a fight with pac yet. i still think if Cotto beats Clottey floyd will fight Cotto.

Why did Mosley go silent when Mayweather was calling him out?

Mayweather went on and made a career without him and is now in a position to be the one called out not the one calling others out.

Mayweather has called out Shane before and it didn't happen. But I guess Floyd's been ducking Shane especially since he was the one calling him out.

this calling out excuse isn't a very good one, surprised Floyd's using it as its clear he hasn't fought everybody that's called him out.

Beat me too it didn't Shane Mosley say he was going on holiday or something like that ? something that the Floyd Mayweather Jr haters seem to wana forget.

Paul Williams is doing his thing at the higher weightclasses, and Antonio Margacheato ? who the hell cares about whether he called Floyd Mayweather Jr out ? he's dirty cheating SOB, who left a black eye on the sport.

Laugh all you want but i'd bet my life savings on Floyd Mayweather Jr, giving Manny Pacquiao a boxing lesson. Floyd Mayweather Jr is a better version of JMM.

I would not listen to Mayweather justifying himself as he contradicts himself all the time. Do not get too worked up with his crap.

I know, beating a dead horse, I'll move on.

Lol...if pac don't beat mosley, it will be fun to watch the shift from floyd is scared of pac to all of the sudden mosley being eveyone's hero, and they'll all say he's scared of him too.

Mayweather may have his critics for fighting Marquez but I am not one of them. IMO JMM beat Pac at least one of the two times they fought. If this is a "physical mismatch" with JMM, it will also be the same with Pac. Pac has beaten no one that Marquez would not have beaten as well. David Diaz, Oscar, Hatton, JMM beats them all. He might not KO Hatton as quick because he is a different type fighter but he would beat him by stopping him late or by decision. Marquez is actually fighting the better competition. Juan Diaz is a better lightweight than David Diaz and Floyd is much better at this stage than the other two mentioned above that Pac has fought. Floyd is actually pound for pound the best but because of inactivity Pac has the crown at the moment. So, you tell me who is letting it all hangout and is actually taking the tougher challenges? That would JMM!! Roach was smart to pick Marque names tailor made for the Pacman. Although Pac is talented, I by no means think he is any better all around fighter than Marquez. The only thing is Marquez's days are numbered as he isn't getting any younger.

Props to JMM for pursuing a very tough fight that I think he only have a 0.01% chance of winning... This is an unfair fight, a mismatch, a tune-up fight... Floyd enjoyed all the physical advantages over JMM that PBF is a heavy 4 to 1 favorite to defeat JMM...

same thing should be said for Mayweather/PAC, for all the reason stated above, but oh yea, although not even 2 years difference in age, Pacquiao has the "advantage" in "youth/age"

Tell me who is older, PAC or PBF?? also PAC could be the underdog against PBF but not a heavy 4 to 1 underdog like JMM... But we will go into that when PAC vs. PBF is ever get made...

Back to PBF-JMM unfair, mismatch, tune-up fight...

Some of you guys on here amaze me. Unfair, tuneup? ONE MORE TIME!! Pac got a very questionable decision over JMM and a draw, he is not much better as a fighter than JMM, if any! So, again, if Floyd/JMM is a mismatch then PAC/FLoyd would be considered one as well.
