James Toney - "It shows you right there that Mayweather's not a man. If you be the best fighter in the world, you fight the guys, know what I'm sayin'? No matter, don't put down no stupid @$$ stipulations, right. Hey, he should be a little scared. And Pacquiao is proving he's one of the best fighters in his era, in this decade."

Michael Irvin - "I want Mayweather to stop messing around and making us brothers look bad by running. Okay, listen. Stop running, man. You're making the brothers look bad. Get in the ring, even if you lose, it's an honorable loss."

ATG radio - "Do you really think that we'll ever see Manny Pacquiao/Floyd Mayweather fight?"
George Foreman - "No. Not at all. No, it's not gonna happen. Mayweather had a chance to do that fight years ago, and maybe for good reasons, he didn't want it because there was a chance that , in early when he made up his mind to come back in boxing, Pacquiao would've run over him! Then they got a little even in time, and then Mayweather got pretty smart and understood, hey, why? I'm making all this money without fighting him, why fight him? So now there is definitely no reason to do it."
