Floyd Sr blasts Pacman anew

MANILA, Philippines - Floyd Mayweather Sr. always has a mouthful of things, nasty things, to say about Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach.

 Just days after his son, the undefeated boxer, landed in and got out of jail for a felony charge, Floyd Sr. renewed his verbal attack on boxing’s hottest tandem.

He guested at “On the Ropes Boxing Radio” program, once again insinuating that Pacquiao is into something that makes the 31-year-old Filipino scared of random blood tests.

He said his son is not scared of Pacquiao as people would think, but it’s actually the other way around.

“My thing is, I know my son and I do know one thing about him -- I know he’s not scared of Pacquiao. Especially if he takes that test, the Olympic test. If he takes that test right there I know what’s going to happen to him. I ain’t even got to talk to you about that. The world will see,” said Floyd Sr.

“You got the majority of people thinking Floyd is scared. Floyd ain’t scared of no damn Pacquiao. That’s the last thing little Floyd is scared of is Pacquiao. I said one thing and I’ll say it again, take the test! Take the test and we’ll find out.”

The flamboyant trainer and rapper also said Roach must know something about it, and labeled the four-time Trainer of the Year as “Freddie the Dope Coach Roach.”

“Let me tell you something!,” he said on air. “He’s winning and there’s a reason why he’s winning. He’s winning, there’s a reason why he’s winning. Figure it out why he’s winning. It’s simple to me.”

Floyd Sr. also talked about the Nov. 13 showdown between Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito, who’s still trying to clear his name after being suspended for using illegal hand wraps against Shane Mosley.

And Floyd Sr. sounded like he doesn’t even care what happens in Dallas in November, even if he said Pacquiao may end up beating Margarito.

“In my honest opinion, they can both fight each other because they’re both, to me in my mind, crooks. So they can fight each other and beat each other up all they want to because one is no better than the other one. Everybody’s doing something dirty.

“To me, in my opinion, one is no dirtier than the other one. So it’s a good fight. Whoever wins is going to win,” he said.

Floyd Sr. said he couldn’t understand how a fighter as small as Pacquiao, one who started out at 106 lb, ends up beating bigger guys, and lording it over the welterweight class (147), and now facing Margarito at super-welterweight, at a catchweight of 151.

“You’ve never seen that. It isn’t because of a coincidence, because to me there’s a reason for it. There’s a reason for why he’s beating these guys like I said before. Whatever the reason is, it don’t sell with me. It don’t sell with me,” he said.
