Why did Pacquiao Duck Floyd?

Neither.....BabArum and Floyd dont mix

 

Yep, this seems more logical. Floyd fought Marquez as a tune up for we all know who.
All bs aside, I honestly feel that the Marquez shutout, coupled with the exceeded amount of anticipation for a mega fight had arum and co. nervous that their man would not be able to complete on the same level as Floyd and end up being beaten badly

 

I do not believe Marquez was a tune up fight for Pacquiao, there is no fighter out there that you could use as a tune up for Pac, I think the Marquez fight with Mayweather was to establish a theme for the Pacquiao Mayweather fight.

I also think that once Roach saw how dominant Floyd was over Marquez, the testing was their legit way out, it is not required and they could use that as an excuse to not fight.

The more I look back I do not think it had as much to do with testing as it did that performance. Manny went life and death, Floyd well, did the man even break a sweat?

 

I really think that was the case, when you look back if they took that who knows really what the out come would have been back then Manny was still on fire, But I dont think they wanted to risk being exposed so early.

You had some good names there to make some money with and extend that stay at welter and super welter. thats what they did, they took the winnable fights under winnable conditions to make what money was available, Now look where Manny is at.....

He has options, How do I say such a thing after one loss and one questionable win?
Manny can now take the Floyd fight, probably wont make 40 mil or PPV revenue but will make more than a rematch with Marquez and or Bradley.
and should he lose to Floyd, it was Floyd Mayweather nothing to be ashamed of.
Then they move on to Marquez, and if they lose there well Marquez always gave manny trouble in fights, and finalize it with Bradley and should they lose there which I think he will, they can then retire with three decent paydays back to back to back and state that Manny is washed up now.

Which sucks because Bradley will get no credit....

 

Yes I agree with this

When I say the term tune up it only relates too Floyd coming back from retirement but other than that your post is:deal

 

Exactly, too much money and hype on the table for either man not too take advantage of the situation and extend their records for as long as possible.

To me it was always going to be the case of who loses first, and how badly that particular man loses.

Always knew it was going to be manny first, just didn't realize his own promoter would be the one to do it to him

 

you ain't really putting forth anything that's new and i don't think you're really convincing anybody with your bullsh!ts and half-truths and other facts you're leaving out.

it's already been written, floyd ducked the fight.

 

In all honesty, I don't really think it's him. Pacquiao has fought a lot of guys who has supposed advantage over him skillwise even back then.

Sasakul, Ledwaba, Barrera etc.

Pacquiao never ducked anyone.

It's just that snake Arum or someone from his team who is pulling all the strings.

 

atsch

 

atschatsch to you.

 

We have all either knew from before, or came to the realization along the way.

You on the other hand......:-(

 

Explain what changed between now and then, Why was pac so against testing then but now is willing to do the test?

if you can make any logical sense out of that, you have a case...

Get to it!
