Boxing icons Floyd Mayweathe Jr. and Manny Pacquiao present during the press conference for “the biggest fight in boxing history” held in downtown Las Vegas.
As this fight is deemed to be the biggest ever in boxing history, it isn't a surprise that the Pacquiao-Mayweather megabout erupts in some pre-fight controversies.
Floyd Mayweather confessed earlier this week that he sees the upcoming fight with Manny Pacquiao as "business," since the thrill of the sport has already departed from him. "It is at a point where it is business. It is my job," he told The Telegraph U.K. "There was a time when it was fun but I am to a point now where I am really over all of that stuff."
He did, however, consider the matchup a "very exciting" one.
"[Pacquiao's] a future hall-of-famer. I am a future hall-of-famer and we are meeting at the pinnacle of our careers," he said. "It is going to be a very exciting fight. Our styles are totally different. I fight with smarts. Every move is calculated. Every move is thought about."
