Floyd Mayweather to Showtime: Manny Pacquiao a ‘sore loser, coward’

Floyd Mayweather said in an upcoming interview with Showtime that at this moment he’s not interested in a rematch with Manny Pacquiao “because he’s a sore loser and he’s a coward.” The interview was recorded late Tuesday night and will air Saturday night after the network’s replay of boxing’s richest fight, which Mayweather won by decision last weekend in Las Vegas to stay undefeated. Asked if he thought Pacquiao was hampered by the right shoulder injury that later required surgery, Mayweather tells Jim Gray, “Absolutely not. … Excuses, excuses, excuses.” In quotes released Thursday, Mayweather insisted that Pacquiao was fast. “His left hand was fast. His right hand was fast and he was throwing them both fast and strong,” Mayweather said. – AP
