Ko Mayweather, e kōrero ana mō te wā tuatahi mai i te tīmatanga o ana whakaritenga mō tana whawhai e haere ake nei, e tohe ana ko ngā rā tuatahi e whā o tana puni whakangungu kua 'nui rawa atu i tēnei wā.' I whakawhetai hoki te toa o te ao i nga korero o te mekemeke penei i a Mike Tyson me Sugar Ray Robinson mo te whakatakoto i te huarahi mo tana angitu.

E tūmanako ana te kaiwhawhai kāore anō kia hinga ki te whakawhānui i tana rerenga kore i a ia e whawhai ana ki a Pacquiao. I kii a Mayweather ki a Fight Hype: 'Ko te puni whakangungu kua tino pai ake, ko te mea anake ka taea e au ko te tatari. Ehara tēnei i te whawhai nui noa iho, koinei te whawhai nui rawa atu o te hītori o te mekemeke. 'Ko te whai i te pai rawa i nga wa katoa, ko te akiaki i a koe ki te rohe, me te maamaa me te mohio.

Ka haere mai ahau ki te whakatakoto i taku potae ki te hunga i whakatakoto i te huarahi kia eke ai ahau ki te wahi kei reira ahau i tenei ra. ' I haere tonu te 38-tau-tau ki te akiaki i nga kaiwhaiwhai mekemeke ki te hoko i tetahi ohaurunga utu-i-tirohanga me te whakamoemiti ki tana roopu. I tāpiri mai ia: 'I waimarie ahau nā te mea i manaakitia ahau e te Atua ki tētahi kapa pai. E hiahia ana ahau kia aro atu te katoa i te 2 o Mei ki te hoko utu-i-te-tirohanga e rua marama i mua.' Kei te whakarite hoki a Pacquiao mo te whawhai e tino tumanakohia ana, ka tu i te MGM Grand i te Mei 2.
