Floyd Mayweather - Manny PacquiaoThe Mayweather-Pacquiao saga seems to never go away especially with the mention of Pacquiao and his most recent rehab stint that he missed in the U.S. Bob Arum called Pacquiao unprofessional and an inactive fighter. Jefff Mayweather, the uncle of Floyd Mayweather Jr, told OnTheRopesBoxing.com, had Pacquiao won, we would have never heard of the injury.

“Of course you would never hear anything about no shoulder injury,” stated the trainer. “We would have never heard that, for a fact. The rematch, it probably would have been made because it would have been a fight worth so much money. It would have been huge, but it was all bs.”

Mayweather says Pacquiao is making himself look bad in the public and there isn’t any coming back from that for the time being.

“Pacquiao’s a guy who made himself look bad and now he doesn’t know how to recover,” stated Mayweather. “He doesn’t even know how to recover from what he’s just done. He lied to the public and then made himself look even worse because he lied about the fact that he even had an injury and then you have all these people saying, “Oh well you should have told us. We should get our money back.”

But at the end of it all, Mayweather feels there was never an injury.

“The reality is, he never had a damn injury in the first place. Fighters go into the ring with injuries all the time. Probably ninety percent of fighters go into the ring with injuries, in any combat sport. Not severe injuries, not like the lie that he told, but you have injuries, but they’re never mentioned because that’s part of boxing. If you’re in MMA, that’s a part of MMA. It’s a part of any combat sport, you go into the fight with injuries because you get injured preparing for the fight.”
