Floyd Mayweather Jr. is viewing Manny Pacquiao as another fighter the networks and the public have built up to beat him. If a deal is finalized, they will face off on March 13. Mayweather says the media built up Ricky Hatton, Oscar De La Hoya and several others to place a blemish on his perfect record. All of them came up short. He says Pacquiao will also come up short.
"I just know can't nobody beat me," Mayweather said to the NY Post. "It is what it is. For 14 years they've been trying to find a fighter that can beat me and they've come up short every time."
The winner will end the debate over which of them is the pound for pound best in the world. A lot of people have said the pressure is on Mayweather because of his big talk over how Pacquiao is a one-dimensional fighter. Mayweather says there is no pressure. He says the pressure is fully on Pacquiao to rise to occasion.
"The thing is there's no pressure on Floyd Mayweather. Never. Whoever I face, there's pressure on them because they know they're fighting the best. When you put in the hard work and you dedicate yourself to your craft whatever your craft might be, you have no worries or pressure," Mayweather said.
