Floyd Mayweather Avoiding Manny Pacquiao to Preserve Undefeated Record coach Roach said

With Manny Pacquiao agreeing to undergo the blood tests that Floyd Mayweather Jr. wanted, and with Mayweather still refusing to accept the fight, Pacquiao's trainer is left to believe one thing: Mayweather is afraid of losing.

Mayweather's career record is 41-0-0, with 25 knockouts. Freddie Roach, Pacquiao's trainer, thinks the 33-year-old Mayweather is solely concerned about maintaining that perfect record.

"I think he just wants that zero on his record," Roach said on Into the Night With Tony Bruno, according to SportsRadioInterviews.com. "As long as he's undefeated he can argue and say he's the best fighter ever, he's as good as Sugar Ray Robinson and so forth, and he can make that argument as long as he doesn't have that loss on his record. I think it's more important for him to stay undefeated than fight the best guy out there."

Pacquiao, despite three losses and two draws in his career, is considered the best fighter on the planet. A matchup of the greatest vs. the undefeated is one for which the boxing world has clamored for more than a year. Unfortunately, it's something that seems destined to never happen.

"It's a shame," Roach said, "and I hope the fight will happen, but I'm worried about that because the only thing that can get [Mayweather] motivated is money, and they offered him 40 million dollars. If that's not enough money I don't know what is."

Pacquiao will continue his boxing career even he is Congressman

7 Weight Division world boxing champion Manny Pacquiao believes he can continue his phenomenal career in the ring while fulfilling his dream of helping his poor countrymen as a politician.

“It just needs discipline. You just need time management,” he said.

Still on a high after winning a congressional seat representing impoverished Sarangani province, Pacquiao, 31, said he would continue fighting—both as an athlete and legislator for the people.

“There are many problems in my province, many people who need help and, one by one, we will decide what to do to help them,” said Pacquiao at a grand celebration in his hometown Saturday night.

“I am happy that I won and that people voted for me but it is also a great responsibility and so I must help my countrymen,” said Pacquiao, known as Pacman, who grew up dirt-poor until boxing brought him world fame and riches.

“My agenda is livelihood programs, education, health care and medical assistance. I am thinking of all kinds of bills to pass in Congress.”
