L-bout ftuħ hija ġlieda terrific. Danny Jacobs huwa ġlied inspirational iżda wkoll middleweight super talent li l-tela 'għal istatura kampjonat u jżomm l-ċinturin. Huwa ser ġlieda fil Barclays Ċentru għall-raba 'darba.

 

Danny lok mill-kanċer li vie madwar id-champion ġiet dokumentata sew. Iżda franchement, f'dan il-punt, hu imsawwat li l-mard u jixtieq li jiffoka biex tkun fuq il-karriera boxing tiegħu u fuq huma l-aħjar huwa jista 'jkun u hu jieħu fuq sfida enormi fuq Awissu 1 fil Sergio Mora, b'mod leġittimu wieħed mill-kontendenti middleweight aħjar hemmhekk u magħrufa sew ħafna bħala r-rebbieħ tal-tal NBC “Il Konkorrent” Serje numru ta 'snin ilu. Sergio huwa champion dinja qabel fil welterweight super, tfittex li żżid il-kuruna middleweight li jerġa tiegħu.

 

Huwa tippossjedi rebħiet fuq Ishe Smith, Peter Manfredo Jr. u Vernon Forrest u jidħol f'din il-ġlieda fuq ħames ġlieda win Streak. U hu aktar reċentement defeated Abraham Han fi Frar ta 'din is-sena fuq ESPN.

 

Allura l-ewwel, I ser let Sergio Mora ngħid ftit kliem qabel immorru l-champion.

 

Sergio Mora

Ħej, guys. Well, Jien eċċitati li jiġu ġlieda kontra fuq l-ewwel karta PBC tiegħi. Huwa kien żmien twil li ġejjin. L-aħħar darba I ġġieldu għal titlu dinja kien ta 'seba' snin ilu u I kien kapaċi jegħleb Vernon Forrest bħala 4-1 underdog.

 

I think jien ser tkun underdog għal din il-ġlieda mill-ġdid, ġlieda kontra l-iżgħar, champion aktar b'saħħitha fil Hometown tiegħu. Allura kien jisfratta lilu se tkun iebsa mal-karti kollha f'munzelli kontra tiegħi u dan huwa xi ħaġa li I draw u mdorri.

 

M'hemm xejn ħażin nista 'ngħid dwar Daniel Jacobs, assolutament xejn. I tfittex xi ħaġa negattiva li jgħidu u ma nistax. Il Guy għandha talent globali. Hu ferm iżgħar, aktar mgħaġġel, aktar b'saħħitha u hits aktar diffiċli milli lili u huwa aktar momentum ġejjin mod tiegħu. Hu fuq disa 'ġlieda win Streak u hu taħbita lili fil dan ukoll. I jkollhom ħames ġlieda għaddej għalija.

 

Imma l-ħaġa li nista 'ngħid huwa li hu ma kellha oppożizzjoni li I jiffaċċjaw. I think hu emozzjonali, ġellied atletiċi. I'ma ċerebrali, intelliġenti, ġellied strateġiku.

 

Din se tkun karta verament eċċitanti għaliex huwa fl Hometown tiegħu u jiddefendu t-titlu dinja. Jien bil-ġuħ għal dak it-titolu dinja u naf li jien ser jkollhom jiġu extra qawwija u jagħmlu ħafna aktar milli sempliċiment għandek rebħa mill-qrib fil Hometown tiegħu. Hekk jien ser ikollhom istampa azzjoni u jmorru minn żona kumdità tiegħi u naħseb huwa għaddej biex ikollhom imorru minn żona kumdità tiegħu, li se tagħmel ġlieda interessanti għal kulħadd.

 

Ninsab kunfidenti ħafna li jidħlu f'dan ġlieda. Ninsab tassew kuntenta fuq it-tim li jien ma issa u din l-opportunità. Stajt dejjem ried għall-ġlieda fl Brooklyn. I dejjem ried għall-ġlieda fl-arena mega bħal Barclays Center. Jien mbierka li jkollhom din l-opportunità u l-parti ta 'dan il-moviment PBC. Grazzi.

 

L. DiBella

 

Grazzi, Sergio.

 

U issa li l-champion, Tal Brooklyn stess, Danny Jacobs.

 

Daniel Jacobs

 

Well, wara Intro Sergio tal, dak li aktar jista I say? Li pjuttost jibred.

 

Jien eċċitati li jkollhom l-opportunità li jiġu lura fil Barclays Center għat-tieni darba madwar bħala ċampjin. Allura dan se jkun it-tieni difiża titolu tiegħi. Hija ser tkun kontra l-Guy-aktar esperjenza stajt jiffaċċjaw s'issa. Ħerqana biex ittestjar tal-konfront tiegħi kontra dan roqgħa, veteran crafty fil Sergio Mora.

 

Stajt dejjem qal li jien biss tipprova tikseb dik l-esperjenza l-aktar importanti. Huwa importanti għalija bħala ċampjin żgħażagħ, Jien mhux fejn nixtieq li jkun bħala ġellied s'issa. Int xorta qed jikbru, int għadhom qed jitgħallmu. Jien tħares lejn din bħala biss test verament bidu. Jien jippruvaw verament jiksbu esperjenza kemm nista fil-ġlieda kontra tali crafty, veteran roqgħa.

 

Hu kien f'din il-pożizzjoni qabel. Allura, hu diġà mdorri li jkunu f'din il-pożizzjoni u jkunu ta 'underdog imma ma nistax jieħu lilu ħafif anki jekk huwa se jkun underdog u anki jekk in-nies se pick me bħala favor biex tirbaħ. Jien tħares lejn lilu bħala l-opponent aktar devastanti li stajt kienu s'issa ġejjin sa middleweight.

 

Allura ma jkunx hemm ħafna ta 'biża safejn enerġija hija kkonċernata, iżda fejn hu ma li jagħmel up fil craftiness tiegħu u slickness tiegħu u awkwardness u xi kultant hu ma jidħlu fl-azzjoni kif ukoll. Hekk jien bil-ħerqa li lilha. Huwa verament test tat-tluq imma xi ħaġa li jien kont qed tipprepara għal waqt ta 'kwalunkwe kamp anki jekk stajt ilhom jaħdmu u tagħmel xandir tiegħi li jien kuntent ħafna li jħabbar. I kont qed iżomm il-gym. I kont qed żamma tajbin u jien verament bil-ħerqa li dan it-test u li hija fil Barclays I think hemm Ma post aħjar fid-dinja I jkollhom. Hekk jien bil-ħerqa li testijiet għall-ħiliet tiegħi kontra veteran crafty.

 

Q

Nixtieq tnejn inti biex jindirizzaw meta inti tirċievi din l-attenzjoni negattiva fuq Twitter u tali, kif taħseb li jitrattawha u x'hemm tweġiba tiegħek għaliha.

 

S. Mora

Well, jisimgħu, I kont qed jittrattaw ma 'din il-kritika negattiva għall-karriera kollha tiegħi. Hija xi ħaġa li segwew me. I do not know jekk huwa għaliex jien rebbieħ juru realtà jew għax in-nies mibegħda l-mod li mmur fl għall-ġlieda kontra u ma nistax knock nies out. Jien sorry I ma twieled b'setgħa. Inti jeħtieġ li tkun imwielda b'Mard enerġija. Jekk I jkollhom mod fejn I jistgħu jilgħaqu u jieklu enerġija u knock out u liema nies trid tara fil-armament tiegħi, imbagħad I ser tagħmel dan, imma ma nistax. I twieled il-mod jien imwieled. I ltqajna biex jagħmlu dak I tista 'ma' kapaċitajiet tiegħi.

 

I think I ħadthom ġejjin triq twila ma 'l-atleti oħra li n-nuqqas ta' enerġija u naħseb li jagħmel me ġellied saħansitra aħjar. Hija magħmula me jevolvu f'tip differenti ta 'Boxer. Allura dawn huma l-affarijiet li boxing jeħtieġ li jifhmu u l-fannijiet ġlieda jeħtieġ li jifhmu li, “Kull dritt, ukoll, jisimgħu, hu tifi Guy ma 'lott ta' enerġija, iżda kif come il-Guy mingħajr ebda saħħa huwa attwalment tagħmel aħjar mill-Guy bil-qawwa? Minħabba li dan huwa l-xjenza ħelwa u dan huwa kif I issir champion.

 

Għalhekk ma jolqot lili. I biss tkompli edukazzjoni dwar ix-xjenza ħelwa u kiri lilhom jafu li l-enerġija mhuwiex l-aspett numru wieħed inti jeħtieġ li tkun suċċess huwa b'aġilità tiegħek, tekniki, difiża tiegħek, shots tal-ġisem, l-istrateġija, huwa wara li l-istrateġija huwa diffiċli.

 

Hekk jien kuntenti li tirrispondi dawn id-domandi għall-persuni li ma jafux. Imma n-nies li ma jafux, nikseb fuqha.

 

Q

Danny, dak dwarek tirrispondi għal persuni li jixtiequ li inti ġlieda Golovkin? Li jgħidu huwa ma jkunx iebsa biżżejjed, kif taħseb li jittrattaw ma 'li Jittieħed?

 

D. Jacobs

Stajt tgħallmu peress ritorn tiegħi lura. Stajt qbilna ħafna ta 'kritika fuq il-pożizzjoni tiegħi – għaliex I kont qed tiffaċċja nies li riedu lili biex iżidu l-, nies li riedu lili biex tikseb fil-pożizzjoni għall-ġlieda kontra li jkunu jridu lili biex jiġġieldu. Jien għadda dak il-punt. Issa dak I care about – ukoll, mhux sal-punt fejn I ma jimpurtahom dwar dak li l-fannijiet jaħsbu iżda, jekk inti appoġġ me, I tħares lejn din bħala, inti tifhem il-proċess, inti tifhem li mhuwiex se jiġu meta inti riedu li ġejjin u jekk int fan ta 'l-isport u jekk int fan ta' myself, allura inti biss jmorru flimkien mal-vjaġġ.

 

Irrid biex iżidu l-. Irrid li tkun tista 'tikseb fil hemm ma' l-aħjar mill-aħjar. Imma ovvjament, ma 'kollox għaddej fl-isport tal-boxing dritt issa, Jien ma verament fil-kontroll ta 'ċerti affarijiet, inti taf. I tista 'tikkontrolla li I pass fil hemm bil iżda sa ċertu punt. So I really ma tendenza li jsibu rwieħhom affarijiet bħal dik. I do dak I do. I waqfa lest. Bħala champion, I kondotta myself ġewwa u barra taċ-ċirku. Min jien fil hemm ma I jagħtu l-aħjar tiegħi. Jekk inti fan ta 'l-isport, allura int ser bħal-ġlied irrispettivament. Dan kollu dwar it-tqegħid fuq juru. Dan huwa dak I kont qed tagħmel – Ħassejtni qisni I kont qed tqiegħed fl ġlied tajba.

 

Q

Huwa sfida għalik li inti tixtieq li tieħu fuq li tkun l-ewwel persuna li tieqaf Sergio Mora jew hija pjuttost importanti għalik li finalment jmorru l-bogħod biex imorru 12 rawnds?

 

D. Jacobs

I d essenzjalment riedu li jmorru 12-il rounds ma Truax. I intentionally wanted to go 12-rounds with Truax. Because I felt like I could stop him a little bit earlier, forsi bħal fil-6 rawnd imma kien xi ħaġa li jien ridt li jipprova li myself u jafu li I tista 'tmur full qawwija 12 rounds hija xi ħaġa li jien kunfidenti ħafna ma 'issa u inħoss bħal jien twieġeb mistoqsija tiegħi. Allura, it-test bil Sergio Mora huwa – jekk ikun jista 'jiġi mwaqqaf jew jekk jew le I tista' tmur l-distanza miegħu, hu qatt ma kien mwaqqfa qabel, u għalhekk se jkun silġ fuq il-kejk biex tkun tista 'mhux biss biex jegħleb lilu imma biex tieqaf lilu fil-logħba.

 

Iżda, hu veteran crafty u jekk I tista 'tieħu jirbaħ fuq Guy bħal dik, rebħa hija win lili. Iżda fl-aħħar tal-ġurnata, dak li l-fannijiet trid tara huwa knockouts. Dak il-fannijiet jridu huwa tissielet spettakolari. Allura ħaġa tiegħi hija jekk nistgħu biss jipproduċu ġlieda meraviljuż u ġlieda kompetittiv, Jien kontenut ma 'dak. A eliminatorja huwa biss silġ fuq il-kejk. Imma hija xi ħaġa li jien infittxu imma jekk dan jiġri, Jien pretty ċert I taf kif tikseb-xogħol isir.

 

Q

What do you think dwar il-ħiliet boxing tiegħu? Kif do jaqblu ma 'tiegħek speċjalment matul il-kors ta' ġlieda 12-round?

 

S. Mora

Li kienet kwistjoni kbira inti tlabt Danny, mill-mod. I think hu wieġeb perfettament. Nixtieq li knock out xi ħadd bħali, inti taf, minħabba li tqiegħed xi ħaġa fuq jerġa tiegħek li Vernon Forrest u Zokkor Shane Mosley, tnejn Hall ta 'fama greats ma kinux f'pożizzjoni li jagħmlu. Allura li kien kwistjoni kbira.

 

Like I said, I think hu jkollu dak kollu li jien ma. Imma għandi l-esperjenza. I think I tieħu xi sparatura aħjar mill-esperjenza ma 'Danny u I think I isegwu pjan logħba tiegħi aktar minn Danny. A lott ta 'boxers speċjalment ħafna ta' ġellieda atletiċi żgħażagħ imorru barra tal-pjan logħba tagħhom u ladarba jaraw li huwa ma tkunx qed taħdem. Bħala veteran, Naf li huwa ma tkunx qed taħdem inizjalment.

 

Hemm bidu, a midgame u logħba aħħari, tip ta 'prodotti simili fil-ċess. Imma inti biss ltqajna biex twaħħal għal dak li inti ipprattikat u ma jmurx barra ta 'element tiegħek u normalment l-affarijiet imorru tajjeb għalija. Li kif jien ser tkompli tagħmel.

 

Of course, Stajt inbidlu xi affarijiet fl-istrateġija tiegħi. Stajt inbidlu xi affarijiet fl-armament tiegħi u l-mod nara avversarji u mmur dwar dan. Iżda fl-aħħar, huwa għadu Sergio Mora – xorta waħda l-Guy li għandu li l-kapaċità tkun ittellef champion u li hu min għaddej biex jiġu ġlieda kontra Awissu 1.

 

Q

Can you talk about your perspective on having it been a long time since you were at this level in terms of a belt being available to you?

 

S. Mora

Well, anyone who’s been around the game for more than ten years or not even then. Anyone who’s been around the game will know that this is a political game. And if you’re not with the right side, you’re on the wrong side. And then even if you are on the right side, there’s another side I think that are right and they’re going to be butting heads.

 

Very political business and I think I turned a lot of people off when I fought Shane Mosley and an uneventful fight but I took all the blame for that and then after that, I was forced to go to Texas to fight a Texan. And I came up short against Brian Vera and then that just really hurt my career.

 

I was getting all the bad media, I wasn’t getting the right offers and that’s a good reason why fighters retire because they don’t have the offers coming in and it can be really depleting and depressing. I decided to go back to the drawing board and start off with a new team, have a new focus and I realized the change in the boxing as well, the same people that were in charge of courts in 2010, 2012, they’re not in charge anymore. There are new players in the game, there are new dates in the game and there’s new opportunity.

 

So because of all this new stuff that’s been added to the world of boxing, a person like myself has been able to make the comeback and I’m in a really good place and I am appreciative.

 

Q

Sergio, do you feel that you get a bit of a bad wrap?

 

S. Mora

In my head, in my stubborn, ignorant head, I’m undefeated. I thought I beat Brian Vera both of those times and I beat Vernon Forrest the first time. He beat me the second time. That’s an even draw, inti taf. So in a way, no one has really dominated, no one has really beat me convincingly. So in my head, I’m undefeated. There’s no rubber match to see who really has more wins over the other guy. But in reality, Vernon beat me the second time, I beat him the first time.

 

It’s a crazy business. People are waiting for you to just come down.

 

Q

So when you take a look at Danny’s record, what is your take on what he’s accomplished or what you think of his ability?

 

S. Mora

Well, exactly what you guys thought. I think with special talent and he got a piece of a world championship and he’s recognized as a champion. Allura, everything that people thought of him came true. Now that he’s on top, he needs to fight top fighters. I don’t think he’s faced the opposition that I faced and other champions have faced. I think that’s the only thing that he’s limited in.

 

So I’m going to be the best name on his resume and we’re going to see how he’s going to be able to handle a guy as crafty like me and a former champion like myself. So it’s a bit of success for him and it’s the best for me fighting a young, hungry champ.

 

Q

When you look over your resume of opponents you faced in your career so far, does he poses perhaps the most formidable test of your career given his experience and his crafty nature?

 

D. Jacobs

Well, absolutely, coming into this thing I even said that I mentioned that he’s the most experienced fighter that I will be stepping in the ring with. The former world champion, beating the likes of Vernon Forrest, Shane Mosley, a couple other guys. He has that experience. He knows what it is to go the distance. He knows what it is to be in a dogfight. I’m a young champion and I haven’t seen those things thus far, dritt, inti taf.

 

I’m content – ukoll, not content but, I’m okay with the fact that I have fought those guys, those topnotch but that’s what I’m looking forward to is a ladder. You can’t skip the ladder. You can’t skip any steps, or you’ll fall.

 

So we take in a step by the time and we stepping up and every time you’re going to see great opposition. I’m just looking forward to this one. I don’t take him lightly whatsoever. I clearly mark him as one of the toughest, craftiest most experienced guy that I have faced.

 

Q

Daniel, what is going to be the thing that gets you over the top and helps you win this fight?

 

D. Jacobs

I don’t know what will be the main thing. But I feel like I have a lot more advantages than he does in the fight. But whatever my advantages are and whatever gets me going, will be the deciding factor for me I would stick to. So if it’s my speed, then I’ll stick to using my speed. If it’s my power, backing him down, showing him what a real middleweight feels like, then that’s what I would do.

 

But it’s all about adjusting and getting in there because, inti taf, not a lot of things may work according to the game plan. So you got to go to Plan B, Plan C and so on and so forth. So I’m just looking forward to seeing what works for me, figuring it out because it is a puzzle, it is a chess game when you fight a guy like Sergio and just making it work. I think that’s what a true champion does is just adjust and get the job done.

 

Q

What are you doing in training camp to get away from that label of spoiler and be directly concentrated on winning that title from Danny Jacobs?

 

S. Mora

Iva. I’ve been labeled the spoiler. I’ve been labeled a lot of names that I actually consider as a good thing, inti taf. You could see it as positive or negative. You come in the positive things that I’m going to go in there, I’m going to spoil Danny Jacobsplans and spoil his promotion plan and spoiler for the fans is the negative that I’m going to come in and win. I decided to go in therewhen the fight with Mosley and Vera, I decided to change my style a bit and I actually engaged a little bit more and be a little bit more offensive and take more chances to go for the knockout. But I think I’ve done that. You know, in my last five fights, I knocked down three of my opponents. So I’ve kept my word and I got this opportunity to fight for a world title again.

 

With Danny, I’m going to do the same. I’m going to try to go out there and do the same thing that got me into this position. I’m showing them that I can be and I can be crafty. I mostly want to let them know that, “Ħej, jisimgħu, I got this other side to my game too that I added to that slickness and that craftiness.Danny also mentioned, if that’s not working, then I got to go to Plan B and C. I’m going to give him different looks just like he’s going to give me. But I’m an excited former champion and waiting to be a new champion August 1st.

 

Q

Talk about the kinds of sparring partners you have into camp.

 

S. Mora

Iva, I like to have heavier sparring partners, harder punching sparring partners. But it’s not about the power because me and my sparring partners aren’t going to go in there and hit me with that power. So I like hitting guys with slickness, with speed, just in case Danny comes in there and he shows me a different style, I got to be ready for that. So I got younger guys, stronger guys, powerful guys, big guys, elusive guys and I like to mix it up.

 

Q

You’re a tremendous fighter, and the same time, you are great announcer, can you talk about seeing that light at the end of the tunnel and a career after boxing?

 

D. Jacobs

Well, thank you sir I really, really appreciate that. To answer your question, iva, dak l-pjan ta 'logħba. To be able to talk and give my side on a national level. So one opportunity I don’t take for granted that I’m enjoying doing is giving me a different perspective on a sport that I love. And it’s something that it can set me up for the rest of my life as something to do post-boxing. Iżda, obviously not straying away from the main task at hand, boxing obviously is what I love to do and just the forefront. So I’m 110% focused on what we’re doing actually inside the ring.

 

But on my spare time in between fights, it’s something that I also like to do and stay busy. But the most part is just building the brand. Dak hu li aħna qed tagħmel. We’re building the Danny Jacobs brand and I’m having fun doing it but I’m taking it seriously because, inti taf, boxing is a very short road and I’m going to fall back on this as well.

 

So just trying to take everything serious and trying to give the best that I have and seeing that it’s been working thus far. So God has definitely blessed me and I’m just looking forward to everything in the near future. This opportunity to fight Sergio is a heck of an opportunity for me in my mind. I think it’s one heck of a step-up as well.

 

So I’m just looking forward to what life has in store for me and my career in the future.

 

L. DiBella

We’re going to move on to the main event of the evening right now. But once again, this is Premier Boxing Champions on ESPN from Barclays Center on August 1. It’s primetime in ESPN, coverage beginning at 9:00 pm ET / 6:00 pm PT. Tickets are from $250 down to $45 available at BarclaysCenter.com, Ticketmaster.com, the Box Office at Barclays or by calling Ticketmaster or calling Barclays Center.

 

The main event is a classic Philadelphia versus Brooklyn matchup, featuring two of boxing’s biggest stars. And it’s a must-win situation for both fighters when Danny “Swift” Garcia takes on Paulie “Magic Man” Malignaggi. Huwa 12 rounds at welterweight at 147 liri.

 

Interestingly, both of these fighters participated at Barclays Center inaugural boxing card in 2012.

 

Danny Garcia, the former Unified Welterweight Champion, made five defenses Junior Welterweight Champion, made five defenses of his belt. It’ll mark Danny’s official move up to welterweight and his fifth appearance at Barclays Center. On his last fight, he had a really tough win and a really hard-fought fight with Lamont Peterson.

 

Fuq Awissu 1, he has his hands full with Paulie Malignaggi, former Welterweight and Junior Welterweight World Champion, għandha rekord ta ' 33-6. It’s Paulie’s fourth fight at Barclays Center. He defeated Pablo Cesar Cano and Zab Judah there and he lost close split decision to Adrien Broner.

 

Paulie, do you want to start by saying a few words?

 

Paulie Malignaggi

Grazzi, Lou. Iva, I’m just really feeling blessed to have the opportunity. It was an opportunity that I didn’t see coming my way after pulling out of the O’Connor fight earlier in the summer and then now trying to back up into the fall. I’m just really trying to sit back and enjoy the summer more so than training and whatnot.

 

This kind of opportunity just fell into my lap. It was unexpected. But I’m all about competing against the best. As surprised that I was, it was also an opportunity I couldn’t say no to. It’s a chance to, be back in the main spotlight with that kind of a fight, be at the forefront which are the kind of fights that I crave, anyway, and the kind of fights that really get my adrenaline flowing and get me motivated.

 

I’m fighting one of the best fighters in the world today at any weight. Like Danny Garcia, it’s a motivation to test myself against the best. I always want to test myself against the best, and so here I am.

 

L. DiBella

Grazzi, Paulie. Danny “Swift” Garcia, still undefeated, 30-0 ma 17 Kos. Danny?

 

Danny Garcia

How are you guys doing? Ewwel, I want to say good afternoon to everybody. I hope everybody is having a good day. Thanks for having me on this conference call.

 

Awissu 1st this is going to be another great night at Barclays Center. It’s my fifth fight there and my first fight at 147. So I feel like this is a great matchup, stylistically, to the fans all around the world.

 

Come August 1st, I’m going to be ready. I’m working hard. Jien taħriġ iebes. I can’t wait to get in there, showcase my skills and in the weight class.

 

Q

How do you feel, Danny, now moving up to welter?

 

D. Garcia

Iħoss kbir. For the first time in a long time, I could worry about training to get better and not training to lose weight. I’ve been fighting at 140 my whole career.

 

I just feel felt like losing the weight was affecting my performances, mostly in the later rounds of big fights because I will use a lot of my energy losing weight. I think I’m just going toI’ve been feeling a lot stronger and a lot better at 147. I think I should have been moved up maybe after the Mattysse fight.

 

But I’m here now and I feel good. Inħoss qawwija. Jien taħriġ iebes. And we’re working on new things just to get faster and stronger at 147.

 

Q

Did the weight loss hurt you against Lamont Peterson you think?

 

D. Garcia

I’m not making any excuses. He had a good game plan. I just didn’t feel strong at that weight class anymore.

 

Qabel, when I hit guys, I could feel the power going through my arms. And when I land a shot, I knew I would hurt them. I just didn’t feel strong at the weight class no more. I just felt like I was hurt myself. I just didn’t feel as strong at 140 anymore.

 

Q

Paulie, just talk about getting back in the ring after the Porter fight and this opportunity for you.

 

P. Malignaggi

I feel blessed just to get the opportunity and to get a chance to continue to test myself against one of the best fighters in the world.

 

You get to the point when you’re not in the ring for a while. It’s going through my mind that maybe I don’t want to fight. But as time went by and I started working out again, I started realizing that it was something I missed. It was something I was still craving. I wanted to be back in there.

 

Din is-sena, b'mod partikolari, has been different than a lot of years. I’ve always had my fight and then I’ve gone right back into just hanging out. I’ve spent almost the entire year in the gym. And I’ve been able to balance it out with all my travel with my commentating. I was in Sadam Ali’s camp for his fight.. I went right into my own training camp for Danny O’Connor and I got cut just two weeks before that scheduled fight. Then I got a call for this fight not long after that.

 

I’ve spent a large chunk of the year in the gym, which is something that hasn’t happened in a long time. And I feel sharp before that. If we’re going to talk about the layoff, people are going to talk about the fact that, I haven’t fought for a long time. But in reality, I actually haven’t trained this consistently in a decade, I mean literally a decade. Since I fought Miguel Cotto, I started making pretty good money after that and I haven’t stayed all year in the gym. Qabel li, I was in the gym all year, inti taf.

 

I didn’t even mean to do it by design. It’s not like I said, “Oh, din is-sena, I’m going to spend the whole year in the gym.” I didn’t – it’s not something I planned. It’s just something that ended up happening going from one camp into another camp, into another camp. And I guess it’s just an accident.

 

But I do feel the sharpness in a gym. I do feel the timing is really good. Obviously my weight has come down. Allura, that’s a good feeling knowing that I have to drop a lot of weight during the training camp just working on the sharpness and keep getting better.

 

Q

Was there ever any serious consideration about retiring after the Porter fight or was that just suddenly flowing around out there?

 

P. Malignaggi

It wasn’t even something I considered. It was just something that I felt like I was going to do, inti taf. I just felt like, I don’t really want to do this, in the time, the way I felt, where my mind was at. And it was just something I didn’t want to do anymore.

 

So I think that’s probably the best thing that happened to me in terms of thinking it like that. Not talking about the loss, but in terms of my mindset in that moment was probably the best thing because if you start to tell yourself you’re going to have a layoff and you’re going to come back, in the back of your mind, you’re never going to take that time off the right way. You’re going to be thinking about you should be back in a gym or when is the right time to get back in the gym.

 

But because I wasn’t thinking that, I was just thinking, “Inti taf liema, Jien jsir,” I gave myself plenty of time to kind of rejuvenate a little bit before I got back in the gym. And then I just decided, “Ħej, you know what, I miss this. I want to get back in the gym.

 

So I think the change of my mind was probably a good thing as opposed to just telling myself, “Inti taf liema, I’m going to take some time off and then come back.I really didn’t think I was going to come back. So when I took the time off, it was really like a time that I was legitimately, fil-fehma tiegħi, feeling rested and got myself rejuvenated without even realizing it. And then by the time I got back in the gym, it was like to try rebuilding a new me, biex ngħidu hekk.

 

Q

Did you think that this might be too much of a stepup after you’re going to be fighting Danny O’Connor after the long layoff?

 

P. Malignaggi

I was actually surprised. Ewwel, I didn’t realize Danny was actually going to move to welter right away. I figured like he was having trouble making the junior welterweight limit. But I had heard rumblings that he still wanted to stay a junior welter for a little longer.

 

I was surprised just in general that he’s moving to welterweight. And then I was surprised, coming off the layoff, I thought maybe that we’ll get somebody else, instead of me to fight Danny.

 

When I got the call, I kien sorpriż. But it was almost like pleasantly surprised. And not because I don’t respect Danny because I do, I got a lot of respect for Danny and family and his father and everything, but I’m a competitor. I haven’t had a big fight in over a year. So it’s just like, wieħed, this is an opportunity for me to kind of put myself back in the mix with one really good performance as opposed to slowly getting back in the mix over the course of three, four fights.

 

I’m 34-years-old. I’m not 24. So I don’t really have that kind of patience anymore. Fl-istess ħin, when I got the call, I also realized how good I had felt in the gym sparring and how good I’ve been feeling in the gym just getting shaped or whatnot. So I felt like I could just flow right into another training camp, because I hadn’t taken that long a time off after I had been cut for the O’Connor camp. I actually still kept training.

 

So my weight was still good. It kind of made sense on a lot of fronts. I didn’t tell myself, “Oh, it’s a big step-up after a layoff.I didn’t look at it like that. I looked at it from more of a positive perspective.

 

Q

Are there any health concerns for you or just heading into this fight?

 

P. Malignaggi

I don’t ever think about this stuff, wieħed. You have to have a short memory in boxing. And that applies to both when you look good and when you look bad. So whatever has happened to you in the past, it doesn’t matter whether it was good or bad. You can’t take that in the ring with you in your next performance. You’re starting a new chapter every time you step in the ring for round one in your next fight.

 

So I know as far as round one, it’s a new chapter for me. And so I don’t consider, I don’t think about what’s happened to me in the past, whether it was good or bad. But it’s something that I haven’t thought about in a long time and it doesn’t go through my mind.

 

Q

Danny is this an effort for you to feel what a 147-fight feels like?

 

D. Garcia

This is a fight my manager wanted. He gave me the call. He made this fight. And like any other fight, he did ask me, “Ħej, do you want to fight this guy?” And then we say, “Iva, we want to fight this guy.

 

So I didn’t go say, “Gee, I want to fight Paulie because he’s not a big puncher,” inti taf, għaliex, power is just one of the many skills you need in boxing. I don’t choose the opponent. I don’t hand choose the opponent. Imma naħseb li b'mod ġenerali, this is going to be a great fight.

 

Q

And what are you looking for this fight to do in terms of advancing your career should you win the fight? What would be next for you? What are you aiming to do in this division?

 

D. Garcia

I do not know xi jmiss. Ovvjament, ġlieda wieħed fi żmien. I got a task in front of me. I got to go in there 110% mentally and physically prepared and just get the job done. Then after that, we can see what’s next for us.

 

Q

Paulie, how do you view a fighter like Danny, a former champion, coming up from 140 biex 147?

 

P. Malignaggi

Oh, I think he’s a phenomenal fighter. I even told Danny myself, early on, I wasn’t high on him. Iżda, I know when he was in the prospect stages, he was beating some really good names and he was hitting a harder road up and a lot of prospects to do, in terms of a guy he has to fight. And he grew on me. I started realizing I’m not looking at this kid the right way. This kid is actually good on a lot of fronts, both from a physical perspective and from a mental perspective, really strong.

 

I’ve always had a lot of respect for him. But in terms of 140, 147, he’s no different than me. I was a junior welterweight champion; I moved into welterweight. So from that front, I don’t even look at myself as a bigger guy or anything. As a matter of fact, he moved up to welterweight at a younger age than when I moved up to welterweight, inti taf. So his body grew into the division a little sooner than my body grew into the division.

 

So I think from that point of view, we both have that in common that we’re both ex-junior welterweight. So from a physical standpoint, I’m not looking at it as having any advantages. It’s just a matter of matching of my skills to his skills.

 

Q

Moving up to 147, do you really feel like you’re going to be able to put a staple on a lot of people’s mouths to shut them up about all the criticism that comes with Danny Garcia?

 

D. Garcia

That’s just boxing. Because I’ve been the underdog before, I’ve been the underdog before and I won. And there was like, “Oh, he got lucky.So it’s either I’m the favorite or the underdog. I can’t listen to none of that stuff after just going through each fight like I was, mentally prepared, physically prepared going in and get the job done.

 

If it’s good enough for the media and it’s good enough for the fans, Jien ferhan. I’m still happy because, it takes a real man to go in there and put gloves on and fight another man for 12 rawnds. It takes a lot of discipline. It’s usually hard work for ten weeks straight waking up every day, doing the same thing, sweat, demm, tears, all that stuff.

 

So I would love for the fans and the media to love me. Iżda, it is what it is, they’re tough on me and that’s what keeps the chip on my shoulder and that’s going to make me train hard every day.

 

Q

Do you see your craftiness advantages that you may have over him that Danny may have a little bit of difficulty with skilled boxers?

 

P. Malignaggi

I think styles make fight. From a style point of view there are things that I feel like I’ll be able to do against Danny. But I also expect Danny had made some adjustments since those fights.

 

When it comes to the Lamont Peterson fight, as I was watching that fight and Lamont started turning things around, I started thinking, maybe Danny, he got in his mind after the first three, four, five rounds that this was the kind of fight this is going to be all night.

 

And when you kind of get into that role in your mind where, ħej, wieħed, this is going to be at a slow pace fight and you’re going to go through the motions in the fourth round. And then suddenly the script gets switched on you; you weren’t ready.

 

I felt like Lamont almost caught Danny in a sleep. And so from there, I don’t know that Danny would make a mistake again. The pace was so slow early on. I felt like I put myself in Danny’s shoes and I said, “Inti taf liema, if I was Danny, I would probably be thinking two, three, four rounds. Daqshekk. This is the kind of fight we’re going to fight for 12 rawnds. So I wouldn’t be ready when suddenly he got turned off. Because if in your mind you put inif you put in your mindset that’s how the fight is going to be and then things switched, then you kind of get caught sleeping.

 

So I felt like maybe it was a learning experience for Danny. But as far as from the stylistic point of view, yes I like the way my boxing skills match up to his. I’m sure there’s things he feels he can do to me as well. And that’s kind of why we get in the ring, we compete with each other and you match up skills. But I’m sure both of us have certain advantages over the other that we’re both going to try to apply once the bell rings on August 1st.

 

Q

Do you see that as a must-win situation for you especially coming off the loss with Shawn Porter?

 

P. Malignaggi

I think it’s more must-win for me as far as my own boxing career is concerned. I think there’s no question that from my professional boxing career, not my commentating career; take everything else aside. For the life of my professional boxing career to continue, I feel like this is a must win for sure. I don’t think that there’s much of a must-win for Danny as it is for me.

 

At this level, they’re allyou always feel like it’s must win because you’re always in the mix for a bigger fight if you can win. So it’s always must win. But in reality, I feel like the burden falls on me more than Danny for it to be that kind of must-win.

 

But it’s also nothing new to me. I’ve been written off before. My career was supposed to end in 2009 when I went to Houston, Texas. I just came off the Ricky Hatton loss and I went to Houston to fight Juan Diaz. And no matter what I said in the press conferences, no matter what I’ve said in interviews, I remember just within one year they just kind of felt like this was going to be the end of my career. And so I had to go in there and prove it myself that it wasn’t yet, inti taf.

 

So I had everybodyif I allowed myself to listen to what everybody says, I would have long gone a long time ago because you figure, you teach everybody their lessons and then it happened again in 2012. I got sent to Ukraine. I hadn’t really had a big fight in a couple of years and people just thought I was again sent to Ukraine as a fight just to make a little bit of money and be done. I was surprised that everybody was thinking about me like that again. I was like, “Wow. These people really don’t learn their lesson, you know.

 

And so I went to Ukraine and I’d come back with the WBA Welterweight title at that time. And I was able to turn things around again fromin my career. And those are really two key situations because losses in those two fights would really have erased me from the sport.

 

So I found myself again in this kind of situation. I’m not travelling to anybody’s hometown this time. I’m fighting in my own hometown. But it’s the same situation. It’s kind of the same thing. No matter what I say going into this fight, people are still going to look at it the same way that I’m the opponent and I’m the guy that Danny beats and this is my last fight and I’m just taking this for a payday and all this stuff.

 

So if I hadn’t already been through this, maybe I would worry about it. I remember in 2009, going to Houston, being kind of worried about it, complaining about all kinds of stuff and just not really knowing what I was walking into. I was walking into a dark room. But I’m not walking into a dark room on August 1st. I know exactly what’s going on. I know exactly what the rumblings are in the boxing world. And I know exactly what everybody is saying about the fight.

 

Regardless, ma jimpurtax. None of it matters. I go in the gym; I do my work every day. I know my mindset. It’s focused. It’s ready. And I know I’m going there to do work on August 1st. And nobody’s opinion is going to matter when the bell rings. But you can’t take people’s opinions in the ring with you, darb'oħra, whether they’d be good or whether they’d be bad. Nobody’s opinion comes in the ring with you. It has absolutely no bearing on who wins each and every single round.

 

Q

Danny, what things have you been able to do this time around doing training that you could not do in the past because you had to make 140?

 

D. Garcia

We added things to our workout now. We added a lot of explosive workouts, a lot of agility, a lot of footwork, a lot of things to making you more explosive, things I couldn’t do at 140 because I didn’t have the energy for it. But now the extra weight is really helping me. I’m eatingI’m adding more meals to my base to make me stronger, like before I had to skip meals. I was always weak.

 

Q

When we’re thinking about this, your training in the gym, do you 100% know how good you’re going to be as far as the sharpness and what you have left at 34? Or does it remain to be seen, you’ll only know on fight night?

 

P. Malignaggi

Fight night you can feel any which way. You can have a good camp but sometimes have a bad night. You can have a bad camp and have a good night. You don’t know how you’re going to be on fight night until you wake up the morning of the fight.

 

But I will say this, I’m having a good camp. And it mainly has to do with the fact that I’ve flown from one camp to another to another and I’ve been able to keep working on my skills and keep working on my sharpness. My weight has stayed low because of the fact that I have consistent training, consistent sparring.

 

I really like the way I’m feeling right now. I like the rhythm that I’m in when I’m in the gym. I like the flow. We’re just going to try to bring this sharp camp into the fight.

 

Q

Do you believe that you got the fight because they believed that you were a faded fighter?

 

P. Malignaggi

I didn’t go that deep into thinking. When I got the call, I was just surprised. Rhen I got the thinking, bħal, wieħed, that’s a big fight. Any competitor wants big fights and wants to be in the limelight and wants to be on the big stage. I was wondering if I would ever get a chance to fight on this stage again.

 

I was more just surprised than anything else. I didn’t really go into thinking as to why I got the fight or why I got offered the fight or whatnot. I think that’s more your guys’ xogħol. And I’m sure they let me know about it on Twitter and in the media why I’ve got this fight. Even if I didn’t think about it, just seeing what everybody says about it, I kind of get the gist of it.

 

If that’s the reason I got offered the fight, it’s the same reason I got offered the Juan Diaz fight in Houston in ’09. It’s the same reason I got the Vyacheslav Senchenko fight in Ukraine in 2012. And my confidence comes from me knowing I have the mental capacity to not let that kind of pressure bother me and have the mental capacity to just go into my zone and eliminate all the negativity from my mind.

 

Danny said earlier he would love the media and the fans to love him. I couldn’t care less whether anybody loves me or hates me. And I think the body of my work throughout my career or the things that I said, the things that I do, shows that I could care less whether anybody loves me or hates. I go out there to do a job. I’m a competitor. I love competing. I love the adrenaline rush of combat at the highest level and testing myself against the best fighters in the world.

 

That’s why I do this. I imħabba għall-ġlieda kontra – I love to see where I’m at. And on August 1st, I’ll show myself.

 

Q

Danny, where is dad, Angel Garcia?

 

D. Garcia

My dad is doing well. Dritt issa, he’s at a shop. He owns and runs a business. Angel is just being Angel right now. I won’t see him until 5 o'clock. Only the Lord knows what he’s doing right now.

 

Q

I would say some of the best work that you have done in the ring is by out-foxing heavy-handed opponents. How much of the old fox are we going to see? How is he again against Danny Garcia?

 

P. Malignaggi

I think for the most part, people know Danny’s style, people know my style. We’re going to make some adjustments to each other, both as part of the game plan and once we see each other in the ring.

 

I can’t really tell you exactly how I’m going to play it out until I’m in the ring myself. I plan on being the best me possible. I plan on being the sharpest me possible. And right now, in training, Inħoss verament tajba. The plan is to flow this training camp into a sharp night on August 1st.

 

Q

How long have you been thinking about the move up to welter?

 

D. Garcia

I believe right after the Matthysse fight I wanted to move up. I felt like that was a perfect time for me to move up because I beat the best 140-pounder at that time. I had beat Khan and then I came back and beat Morales and Matthysse.

 

I beat two of the best 140-pounders, so I feel like it’s time for me to go up to 147. But they had different plans for me. Me and my team, we decided to stay at 140 for a little longer to see how it played out. I just wasn’t fully strong at the weight class anymore. I just wasn’t fully strong anymore. So I felt like it’s time for me to go up to 147.

 

Q

How confident do you feel that you can become world champion again against the likes of Thurman, Kell Brook, perhaps a rematch against Amir Khan?

 

D. Garcia

Ninsab kunfidenti ħafna. I faced a lot of good fighters. I faced a lot of great fighters in my career. I have a lot of experience. I was a big 140-pound fighter. I’ve never faced a 140-pound fighter who was taller than me or who looked better than me.

 

I was just squeezing my body down to 140. And I feel like I’m going to be a way better fighter at 147 and be able to use my legs more. Fil 140, I felt like I wasn’t strong no more, so I just had to walk forward all night and knock my opponents out.

 

But I feel like at 147, you’re going to see a more athletic Danny Garcia and be able to use my legs more, using my jab more and see punches clearer. When you drain yourself as hard to see punches, then you get hit with a lot of dumb punches because your vision is not clear.

 

Inħoss bħal viżjoni tiegħi se jkun hemm ħafna aktar ċara u jkunu jistgħu jiċċaqalqu ras tiegħi, tara l-puntelli aħjar, użu saqajn tiegħi. U naħseb jien ser tkun champion fil 147, wisq. I know so.

EXCLUSIVE, CANDID INTERVIEW WITH FLOYD MAYWEATHER TO PREMIERE SATURDAY ON SHOWTIME®

Mayweather Goes In-Depth on Pacquiao Injury, the Possibility of a Rematch and Fighting Beyond Next September

SHOWTIME Premiere of World Championship Bout—Mayweather vs. Pacquiao—at 9 p.m. U/PT Followed by Exclusive Interview and the Premiere of “INSIDE MAYWEATHER vs. PACQUIAO Epilogue”

NEW YORK (Mejju 7, 2015)—Sports Emmy® Award winning reporter Jim Gray of SHOWTIME Sports® sat down with pound-for-pound champion Floyd “Money” Mayweather for an exclusive and candid interview late It-Tlieta lejl, just days after Mayweather dominated Manny “PacMan” Pacquiao en route to a 12-round unanimous decision victory last Saturday night in Las Vegas. The interview will premiere this IS-SIBT, Mejju 9, fuq Showtime immediately following the network’s premiere of Mayweather vs. Pacquiao (9 p.m. U/PT).

 

Fl-intervista, Mayweather addresses the claim made by Pacquiao’s camp that the Philippine fighter sustained an injury to his right shoulder that hampered his ability during the bout. Mayweather also discusses the possibility of a rematch with Pacquiao and fighting beyond his next scheduled event in September.

 

“Absolutely not,” Mayweather told Gray when asked if he could detect a problem with Pacquiao’s shoulder during the bout. “He was fast. His left hand was fast. His right hand was fast and he was throwing them both fast and strong.

 

“Excuses, excuses, excuses,” continued Mayweather, who remains undefeated in his professional career with 48 jirbaħ, no losses and no draws.

 

“I’m not going to buy into the bull… and I don’t want the public to buy into the bull—-. He lost. He knows he lost. I lost a lot of respect for him after all of this.”

 

Mayweather goes on to address the possibility of a rematch.

 

“Did I text Stephen A. Smith and say I will fight him again? Yeah, but I change my mind,” said Mayweather. “At this particular time, ma, because he’s a sore loser and he’s a coward… If you lost, accept the loss and say, ‘Mayweather, you were the better fighter.’”

 

The compelling interview will air immediately following the SHOWTIME premiere of the welterweight world championship unification bout at 9 p.m. U/PT. The interview will be immediately followed by the premiere of ĠEWWA Mayweather vs. PACQUIAO Epilogue, the acclaimed original documentary series from SHOWTIME Sports.

FLOYD Mayweather MEDIA Traskrizzjoni telefonata konferenza

Kelly Swanson

Grazzi, kulħadd, for joining us today. Today on the call we have none other than ‘TBEthe greatest fighter on the earth, Floyd Mayweather, 11-time World Champion. We also have Leonard Ellerbe, CEO, Promozzjonijiet Mayweather. Leonard, please start with the introductions. Grazzi.

 

Leonard Ellerbe

Grazzi, kulħadd, for joining us on the call. We’ll jump right into this without further ado. None other than Floyd Mayweather himself.

 

Floyd Mayweather

Ħej, how is everyone doing? I want to thank Leonard. I want to thank Kelly. I want to thank my team. I want to thank all the media from around the world that have been covering this fight. I want to thank everyone, I just want to say that you guys are doing a great job and I appreciate you.

 

Q

That thing on SportsCenter the other night, when you were talking about your place in boxing history and you said you thought you were greater than Muhammad Ali. Can you expand on your reasons why you feel that way?

 

F. Mayweather

I just feel like, like I said before, I take my hat off and then acknowledge all of the past champions. Huma, I think he was a legend. I respect Ali like I respect any other champion. I just feel like I’ve done everything I can do in this sport over my whole life, for 30-something years. I feel like I’ve done just as much in this sport as Ali did.

 

There’s no disrespect to him. I just feel like, when you look at it, Ali was great in one weight class, which is heavyweight. But he stood up for a good cause; he stood up for a hell of a cause in his era.

 

I think that it’s hard for a guy to beat me. I’m still sharp, still very, very sharp at the age of 38. Still going strong at the age of 38. There’s no disrespect to Ali, as I said before. I just feel like I’m the best, no different from how he called himself ‘The Greatest,’ I call myself ‘TBE.

 

I’m pretty sure that I will get criticized for what I said, but I can care less. I couldn’t care less about the backlash. I believe what I believe like he probably got criticized at one particular time when he said that he was the greatest. He felt like he was better than Sugar Ray Robinson. The list goes on and on. I’m pretty sure there’s going to be another fighter that’s going to come along and say he’s better than Floyd Mayweather and he’s going to get criticized.

 

Q

Do you think that Manny Pacquiao believes anything that Freddie Roach is saying when it comes to the bad guy and all this other stuff? Or do you think he’s just blowing smoke?

 

F. Mayweather

I’m not going to speak negative about Freddie Roach. I don’t have to at all. If I say something about the guy, they’re going to think Floyd is picking on a guy, who is not 100 percent healthy.

 

Imbagħad, if I comment on some of the stuff he says, he’s making this basically a God and devil type thing. The best way to handle a situation like that, is not to say anything at all, if you don’t have anything positive to say. He don’t have to get in there and fight, so when it comes down to it, it’s up to the two fighters.

 

He’s entitled to say what he wants to say, but the fighter is not speaking like that. I couldn’t care less because it comes down to the two fighters. I wish Freddie Roach nothing but the best; I don’t have anything negative to say about him. I’m truly blessed to be where I’m at and I’m thankful to be where I’m at.

 

Q

The magnitude of this fight, I know you treat it like just another fight, but what about your team? How has your team dealt with the press?

 

F. Mayweather

Ninsab tassew kuntenta, like I said before. A little bit of everything got me to this point. Everybody played a major key. I try to keep my team grounded. People talk about the money. That plays a major key. My place in history plays a major key. Performing well plays a major key. Everything plays a major, major key.

 

I just try to keep my team grounded and try to keep them focused and just try to teach them every day how to go out there and fish for themselves. That’s the only thing I try to teach my team. I tell them to stay positive, and what I’ve heard was keep a positive environment around myself, which keeps me comfortable and happy.

 

Q

Are you excited at any point of this fight? I know you say you treat this like a job, but are you excited to finally get in the ring and have this fight happen?

 

F. Mayweather

It’s just like I said before. I’m not really going crazy. It’s just a fight to me. I know it’s the biggest fight in boxing history, but I can’t approach it like that because I’m not going to put any unnecessary pressure on myself.

 

He’s a fighter that’s extremely talented, he’s a very good fighter also, and my thing is just to be Floyd Mayweather. People actually don’t know, how is this fight going to be fought? I can’t say. Like I said before, I’m not a psychic. I cannot predict the future. But I will be at my best May 2nd.

Q

Listen, if you believe Bob Arum, this fight might not happen. That there’s issues with tickets, there’s the contract has not been signed, whatever. Do you know anything about that?

 

F. Mayweather

When it comes to the business side, that’s for Leonard Ellerbe. I don’t try to worry about tickets; I try to worry about the guy that’s in front of in me, which is going to be Manny Pacquiao. That’s my whole focus. Tickets are something I don’t really deal with.

 

Q

Have you trained harder for any previous fight than you have for this one, and would that be down to your respect for Manny or the fact that you need to work a bit harder the older you get?

 

F. Mayweather

When you’re trying to perform, when you’re at this level, you always want to perform extremely well. You don’t want to overtrain. You want to train to where you know you’re completely ready. Go out there and be at just 100 mija. As far as this training camp, I’ve trained extremely hard. I believe that we’ll just see how everything plays out.

 

Q

I’m hearing reports, Floyd, that you’re looking stronger and fitter than ever.

 

F. Mayweather

Well, some people say that, you might not believe that depending on who is telling you. Nisperaw. Hopefully I am. We’ll just have to see. That’s why I’m at this level, at the pinnacle of my career, because I’ve been pushing myself for so long and working so hard.

 

Q

Can I just ask you about Amir Khan? Is he still in your plans?

F. Mayweather

My focus right now is the guy that’s in front of me. My last fight is in September. I never want to overlook anyone. I believe you take it one fighter at a time. As of right now, Manny Pacquaio is the guy that’s in front of me, and that’s my focus.

 

Q

My question is regarding, Manny Pacquiao has said he thinks it’s Floyd’s time to lose. He’s almost implying that it’s maybe, God is on his side. I was wondering how you think, if God actually does care who wins prizefights?

 

F. Mayweather

I actually believe God loves us all. The people that are on this call, every writer, every fighter, every athlete that goes out there and competes. God loves us all. Għal darb'oħra, Jien ġellied. What I do, I’m a professional prizefighter. I believe in God and I love God. I don’t think God takes sides.

 

Q

Lot of stuff gets reported in the fourth or the sixth weeks leading up to this. We don’t always get a chance to ask you yourself, so I want to give you the opportunity. Is there anything that was reported that you want to clear up that you want to actually say no, that isn’t true, you guys got it wrong?

 

F. Mayweather

Do Mhux, nothing at all. Because once my career is over, that’s when I’m going to read everything, anyway, all the articles that people have written. When I come home, I leave boxing at the boxing gym. When I go to the gym or when I go to train, I work. I dedicate myself to my craft.

 

When I come home and I’m not on the computer, I’m not looking at myself. I’m not buying magazine covers with me on the cover. I’m not on the computer looking up articles. I could care less about all that. My job is to go out there and perform and be at my best, and be the best that I can be in the sport of boxing.

 

Q

My question for you is, in your opinion, what would a victory against Pacquiao do for your legacy? And then how much would it enhance your legacy.

 

F. Mayweather

It’s just another fight. I just look at the situation. He’s another guy that I faced. You’re just going to say in history, that these two faced each other at one particular time. It was hard to make the fight happen, eventually they made the fight happen, and we faced each other.

 

Q

Do you believe, għalkemm, that a victory would in some way enhance your legacy?

 

F. Mayweather

I’m not sure, because I’m not the one that’s putting myself in the history books.

 

Q

Do you think it’s true that the winner of the fight will be declared, in essence, by the public, as the king of this era?

 

F. Mayweather

I can’t really say. I don’t really know. Just look at Ali’s career. When he fought, he looked like the best when he fought. I think he lost seven fights. When I got older I noticed that he lost seven fights and lost some other fight that he lost. He still was known as the greatest. Because that’s what he put out there. Allura, that’s what it is.

 

Q

The wonderment on a lot of people’s minds is when the career is over, will you have enough money for the rest of your life? Do you ever worry about losing at all?

 

F. Mayweather

Jien mbierka. I made some good investments to where if I wanted to retire today, I could.

 

Q

That means there’s no fear of bankruptcy whatsoever in terms of the gambling and the other involvements that you’ve spent?

 

F. Mayweather

I made some good investments, and if I wanted to retire today, I could.

 

Q

My question is, you said at the press conference that you though that Pacquiao was surprised at how much bigger you were than him. Can you talk a little bit about that, and then also some of the strategic aspects of being the bigger fighter in the ring on Mejju 2?

 

F. Mayweather

Normally when I face an opponent, they normally outweighed me by 17 biex 20 pounds on fight nights. This has been going on for a good while now. You can read a guy’s body language. When Pacquiao first saw me in Miami, he didn’t expect to see me over there at the basketball game. He looked shocked, bħal, ‘Damn, he is taller than me. He’s bigger than what I thought he was.Just being in the sport for so long, you’re able to read body language; you’re able to read a fighter’s eyes.

 

Q

Do you feel that some of the trash talking is Freddie Roach being nervous about the fight and trying to get a psychological edge on you?

 

F. Mayweather

I’m not fighting Freddie Roach, so I’m not worried about that at all. Freddie Roach, he’s Pacquiao’s trainer and he’s going to do what he has to do for his fighter to win. If that’s trying to get an edge, then that’s what he should do.

 

Q

All of your other fights, you’ve always been a very vocal, always been a vocal fighter. Why the silence this time?

 

F. Mayweather

This is exactly what I’ve said. Even in my interviews, I’ve said we had to bring a game plan. Even from day one when I was with Bob Arum, I said I wanted to work extremely hard to get to a certain point in my career, which is to get to a point to be the first fighter to ever make nine figures in one night.

 

It took a game plan to me going out there on my own. It’s just me speaking out with a very, very loud voice. Having a lot of personality. But as you get older, you mature. After trash talking for 17, 18 snin, and constantly saying, look what I’ve done. Ħares lejja. Ħares lejja. You know what I’m saying? I’m the best. Ħares lejja. And everybody they’ve put in front of me I’ve beaten.

 

I’m at a point where you just say, you know what? Huwa dak li hu. I know what I can do. I know what I bring to the table. God has truly blessed me to be in this situation. I have a good team. My children are healthy, so I don’t have to do all that.

 

It’s more like I did all that loud talking and everything to get to a certain point. I’ve still got a lot of personality, I did what I had to do to get to a certain point in my career, u dan huwa dak li għamilt. It was a brilliant game plan.

 

Q

From your personal point of view, how has this fight and this promotion been different from the many other big events that you’ve been a part of?

 

F. Mayweather

It’s actually been kind of the same. It’s just a little bit over the top, but I just try to stay relaxed. That’s my main thing. It’s a very, very huge event. I can remember every day.

 

Sometimes I think about when Mike Tyson got out of prison and he was boxing, and when he was fighting at the MGM Grand. I would go to the MGM Grand, because I wasn’t a professional at that particular time. Just starting. I would go to the MGM Grand and some people would know me so I would take pictures and just sign a few autographs. I was like, wieħed, MGM Grand would never be this packed again. That’s what I thought. I kien biss 19 years old at that particular time. That was in ’96. I kept believing though. I always believed that I could do record-breaking numbers. I just needed the right team with me and it took a little bit of everything. The right fights, the right team, and we made it happen.

 

Q

Beyond all the trash talk and salesmanship, you’ve always been a guy that, meta niġu jistabbilixxi lilu, is very respectful of his opponents. I think it’s part of your secret. Is there anything that you admire about Manny Pacquiao, either the fighter or the person?

 

F. Mayweather

Well, he’s got to this point by doing something right. It’s obvious he’s done something right to get to this point. I have to respect that.

 

Q

The Filipino fans are expecting or hoping for a very aggressive Manny in the ring. Is this something that you’re training for, or are you just going in the ring to fight your fight, make the adjustments along the way as you have so successfully throughout your career?

 

F. Mayweather

If you’re basically asking what’s my game plan, my game plan is to win. That’s actually what my game plan has always been is to win.

 

Q

A lot of the animosity from the Filipino fans towards you is not directed to you as a great boxer, but more as someone who can put an end towards a Filipino hero’s career. Do you honestly believe that you would put an end to a Filipino hero’s career?

 

F. Mayweather

Well, my thing is this. I’ve heard that we’re all God’s children, whether you’re American, Filipino, African, Dominican, Asian, we’re all God’s children. People are going to root for who they want to root for and simple and plain I’m pretty sure I’ve got Filipino fans that like me, and I’m pretty sure that you’ve got some black American fans that like Pacquiao.

 

I never try to focus on anything like that. My focus is to give the people what they really want to see. Just facing the facts. That’s what I’ve done throughout my career. He’s one of the last guys, he’s one of the last good fighters of this era. It’s a fight that has to happen, and I’m glad that the fight is happening.

 

Q

How much strength and effort and support from family does it take to get you where you are right now?

 

F. Mayweather

Well, the support came a lot. I had a hell of a supporting cast to get to this point, before I became a professional. There’s this guy that I never talk about to anyone. I never say anything about him to anyone. And he’s doing extremely badly right now, not financially but health-wise. I believe he’s lost his memory, which hurts extremely bad. A guy by the name of Frank Brown, I’ve known him since I was the age of three.

 

He has supported me more than anyone. He has always said that, “Floyd, one day you will be the best fighter in the world.He’s always taking me to church, taking me through different activities. He was like a grandfather to me. Frank Brown. When I used to fight, he would drive anywhere. It could be in Little Rock, Arkansas. He would drive from Grand Rapids, Michigan to come support me. He would sit in the room with me and say prayers with me.

 

He’s a guy that I would never forget, because he was there from the age of three until after I fought De La Hoya, because he’s up there in age now. He eventually lost his memory, so he’s at a home. He’s at an old folks’ home. It really hurts, but I love that guy so much. I think about him all the time.

 

K. Swanson

Okay, that’s our last question. Grazzi, kulħadd, for joining us. Floyd, any final comments?

 

F. Mayweather
