Video: Mayweather vs Pacquiao post-fight press conference
A few hours ago we have posted the Mayweather vs Pacquiao CompuBox Stats and now it’s the turn of the video of the post-fight press conference between Floyd Mayweather Jr and Manny Pacquiao held at MGM Grand, Las Vegas, after their mega-fight. Pac-Man revealed he hurt his right shoulder during the training camp just three weeks before the ‘Fight of the Century’ and he wanted to postpone the bout! He had hoped to receive an anti-inflammatory injection the week of the fight but the Nevada State Athletic Commission denied permission for the shot. Then he said:“But one week before the fight my shoulder was getting better and better…” but later he added “I cannot use my right shoulder a lot […] but what we wanted to do we couldn’t do because of my shoulder. In the third round I already felt the pain in my shoulder. When I threw a lot of combinations I had to back off because it hurt.”
Also Floyd Mayweather Jr speak about his injuries at both hands during the post-fight press conference:“I had injuries also going into this fight […] and if he [Pacquiao] would have come out victorious, I would have said you know what I’ve got to show respect and say he was the better man, but I will always find a way to win.” Then ‘Money’ Mayweather said “Everyone was saying that I was scared and Floyd was going to lose. They said this guy could beat Floyd. Floyd is a coward. Floyd is a chicken…I made you guys eat your words. Write this tomorrow” and then he claims Muhammad Ali:“Muhammad Ali called himself the greatest, but this is my era. And in my era I’m TBE (the best ever). I was born a winner and will die a winner. I’m the American dream.” But he also added he has been losing the love for boxing:“My love and passion for boxing is not what it once was, but this is my job and I have to do my best at it. This fight hasn’t changed anything, it’s just another day at work. It’s no different to the guy I fought in my third fight…it’s the same feeling. I’m not going to miss the sport. Before I wanted to be at every boxing event, but throughout the years I lost the love for the sport.”
