It's Monday evening, I'm working on the site and my longtime friend Nate Jones, Trainer and Team Mayweather member, call me and say "Brother you want to interview Floyd?" shocked and caught off guard. I say 'hell yeah' so i wait by the phone, then once Monday Night Football was over, I got the call.
KARCENO What's good champ, thanks for giving me this interview.
FLOYD MAYWEATHER It's all love, you ready, cause if you’re not we can do this tomorrow?
K: I'm ready; Freddie Roach, Team Pacquiao, and even Manny Pacquiao himself have all said the same thing. Bob Arum seems to be the only one who would rather make a fourth fight with Marquez instead of fighting you. Do you believe that it was Bob Arum all along who prevented this fight from happening?
FM: "It’s like this, when I started my career with Bob Arum, I was one of the best fighters, he ever seen. Then when I become my own boss, then I become the scum of the earth to Arum but that's how he feels, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. When I fought Marquez, they said he's over the hill, even though he just beat a fleet of champions. Now he's 39 and Pacquiao fight him it's the greatest thing ever. You look at the Ortiz fight, how did we even get put in that situation? Did I put myself in that situation, where they was going to be controversy? Like I said I'm always in a no win situation. We just want to give the people good fights, exciting fights."
K: Did you watch Pacquiao v Marquez 3 yet?
FM: "I was sitting in my hotel room, in Greensboro, NC. I'm turning back and forward and watching football. So I said let me watch this fight, cuz I'm not going to give Bob Arum my money, I will watch it on HBO for free, cuz I love HBO, that's my home, but I think it was wrong and this is what's hurting the sport. With Jim Lampley and other people saying Pacquiao won the fight. He lost. It wasn't even a split decision, he lost unanimously but were in a recession, were living in an economic world. Were smart, if Pacquiao lose were talking about between the two fighters, billions and billions of dollars lost. They have to connect Pacquiao's name to mine, so he can make major paydays. I'm not here to count another man’s pocket or what he do, on one side they say he's making 22million, now I'm hearing 6 million. I don't really understand this."
K: People are saying that you and your team are now willing to negotiate a fight with Pacquiao because of how he looked in his last fight. Even though you set a date and venue before the fight even took place you have and response to that?
FM: "you know sometimes I ask myself this, because I'm going through this lawsuit with Manny Pacquiao a guy that barely understands English. He really can't speak the English language, now is it Manny Pacquiao that's suing me? Or is it Bob Arum that's suing me? From what I hear, because I'm not saying it's true or not, but Bob Arum owes Pacquiao a lot of money. No matter who I face, I'm on the A-side of the deal so how can they make me an offer? All my money goes to me. Anytime you mention my name, they’re going to say, all-time great, Pacquiao name has to be connected with mine, I'm a crutch for him to lean on. So I don't know how they going to approach it but I can't really trash talk and have fun, because they suing me, how can we really negotiate a fight if they suing me?"
K: As far as date is Feb solid or is May 5th still in Play?
FM: "I just want to get back in the ring and give the fans some more, but May is the date, May 1st or 5th whatever, if your the best take the test. I'm not singling out one man, I didn't get to where I am but doing nothing but believing, hard work dedication, because there is so much cheating going on in the sport, that's why every man I face will have to take the test, I'm trying to clean up the sport. At one point people in the past speculated on me because they said 'how could this guy dominate all these years and make Hall-Of-Fame fighters look like ordinary fighters. It's obvious, like I said things are changing in the sport of boxing and the fans and the people around boxing can read in between the lines. Things are changing."
K: People are now starting to say that Pacquiao has lost a step based on how he’s looked in his last two fights. Do you think he is the same fighter and do you believe he’s looked good in the past because of favorable style matchups?
FM: "you saw the way he fought the other night, that's not the Pacquiao we're used to seeing as of late. Off balance, wild-ish, very very wild. A change in this fight game is happening, something is happening. I can't really say what it is because if I do, you know. For years and years fighters has talked trash to each other and after the fight they go their separate ways, but there telling me I'm tarnishing his image, I'm just talking trash having fun, but obviously someone feels there is some truth in what I was saying."
K: Do you feel HBO caters more to Pacquiao? and what do you think about the Team Pacquiao accolades?
FM: "I love HBO and everybody on the staff, we have no problems, if I had problems in the past with them, we call them and they take care of it. They make it right. I just don't get how they say these trainers are this and that and I've beat all the so called best trainers. They give a fighter, Fighter of the Decade and he had a loss and a draw in that decade. When I beat Angel Manfredy, I didn't take the IBF, when I beat Mosley I didn't take the WBA, so truthfully, I'm a ten time world champion."
