Serial woman abuser Floyd Mayweather claims he’s better than Muhammad Ali, greater than the greatest. But Manny Pacquiao’s trainer, Freddie Roach, claims Mayweather doesn’t want any part of his fighter, and Mike Tyson called Mayweather a delusional, scared little man.
Mayweather — who has a long history of domestic abuse – is favored to beat Pacquiao Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. But he sure didn’t sound like Tyson’s favorite when Iron Mike was interviewed by the Undisputed Champion Network in Las Vegas.
“He’s very delusional,” Tyson, who has a violent history with woman himself, said of Mayweather. “If he was anywhere near that realm [of being as great as] Ali, he’d be able to take his kids to school by himself.
“Greatness is not guarding yourself from the people, greatness is being accepted by the people. He can’t take his kids to school by himself. He’s a little, scared man.”
It should be pointed out much of the country didn’t accept or even tolerate Ali because of his outspoken nature and views on the Vietnam War. And Ali certainly wasn’t above the use of bodyguards, the most famous of whom was Mr. T.
Tyson is still only Mayweather’s second biggest boxing detractor behind Roach.
“I think he was forced into this fight,” Roach said. “I don’t think he wants to fight this fight.”
Later, Roach added, “I’m wondering if he’s going to show. I really do.”
