"I see Mike Tyson saying some things. He predicting Pacman to win, but I'ma tell you, man, I think people like Mike Tyson and Roy Jones say certain things because they done been at the top where my son at, but at some point, whether late or early, they got knocked off of the top," stated world-class trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr., who shared his thoughts on Hall of Famer Mike Tyson's prediction that Manny Pacquiao will defeat his son in their highly-anticipated May 2 mega-fight. According to Mayweather Sr., Tyson and future Hall of Famer Roy Jones Jr. are only suggesting Pacquiao will win because they're jealous that Floyd has yet to suffer the same kind of fate that they did when they were once on top of the sport.
"My son ain't never been knocked off and Pacquiao damn sure not knocking him off. So I think that's what that is, man. And honestly, even when they was at the top, they weren't able to have as much over they career like Lil' Floyd or make the kind of money he's making," Mayweather Sr. explained during a recent conversation with FightHype.com. "I mean, a pick is a pick and they can say or pick whoever they want, but I think Mike Tyson saying what he's saying because he was at the top and he was knocked off and out. That ain't happen to Floyd!"
