Barkley: Clottey may upset Pacquiao, Filipino can't beat Mayweather
Iran Barkley, the former middleweight and super middleweight champion of the world, has been through many wars in the 1980s and 1990s. He TKOs Thomas Hearns, lost a close decision to Roberto Duran, lost by TKO to James "Lights Out" Toney, and even fought (and lost to) Trevor Berbick in the heavyweight division.
Barkley retired with a record of 43-19-1.
He offers his thoughts on a prospective bout between Floyd Mayweather, Jr (40-0) and Philippine boxer Manny Pacquiao (50-3-2).
Quotes >
Mayweather is an exceptional fighter . . . . He got a lot of heart and a lot of style. All he has to do is sign the paper. Pacquiao is a good fighter . . . . I know [Mayweather] has the talent to do it [win against Pacquiao] . . . . Ain't nobody beating [Mayweather] . . . . Don't worry about the test Mayweather because he's [Pacquiao] not stronger than you. He's strong but he's not fast. [Mayweather] is blessed with the talent. He doesn't have to worry if he [Pacquiao] is on steroids . . .
