More support for mayweather was scared and forced into the fight. Even if untrue, you can't tell me that this isn't GREAT bulletin board material.
"So yes, we do feel more pressure than usual. But I think the real pressure is on Floyd. That "0" means more to him than anything, It's his identity. And the further along he goes with each fight, the heavier the pressure is on him. It's not unlike pitching a no-hitter. It's a breeze the first few innings, but in the late innings? You have to really bear down and you aren't as fresh and comfortable as you were earlier. Things creep into your mind.
"The key for us is to take Floyd out of his comfort zone. He hates that. We have already done that by making him fight Manny. He never wanted that fight. Manny and the fans forced him to take the fight. He ran out of road. His excuses no longer held water. The next step is to take the fight to him on May 2. Manny winning that first round is critical. And Manny winning that fight will be a public service for boxing."
