    I've said from the beginning I didn't really believe GBP seriously wanted to put Mares in with Donaire. Mares is at the weight for one year, two fights, and already says he has trouble making weight? Bottom line, Mares was offered $1 mill. He turned it down. He made his choice not to fight for a career high. Doesn't sound like he wanted it that bad to me. Want to do a bet that he won't get that much in his next fight?

    So you've seen the contract/written offer from Top Rank? Because I've seen you go on and on and on about how until it's written it doesn't matter, and how twitter and media don't consititute an offer, etc etc etc. Per your criteria there has been ONE offer made, do you disagree with that?

    You don't count until you back up your claim this 'contract' was backed as valid by news outlets. Recant or don't bother me again on this subject.

    Floyd offered Manny a career high payday, and he didn't make anywhere close to what Floyd offered in his next fight, does this logic apply to him as well?

    What? I literally have no idea what you're talking about. As for "not bothering you on the subject"...I know you wish I would stop on the subject because you have nothing for me. I don't give a **** if you respond or not really, the bottom line is that you are backing yourself into a hypocritical corner, trying to "defend" something, that literally has nothing to do with you directly. The rest of the people here can see and read for themselves and formulate their own opinions, it's pretty obvious who is "right" in this instance.

    LOL...dude, I don't give a **** what you respond to, it's as much for everyone else to see as it is for you. You've clearly demonstrated that you are fully committed to going full ****** on this issue, so it really doesn't matter if you duck the debate or not.

    Can't debate someone that doesn't remember/standby what they said earlier.

    | Rumors about a potential Nonito Donaire vs. Abner Mares mega-fight have been hot for days, and the latest information is that not only was the much-talked about $3 million offer from Golden Boy legitimate, but that Top Rank turned it down.

    Are ESPN and Yahoo not respectable media outlets, who support the idea that a legitimate offer/contract was presented?

    I am not Reppin501. I have not made any of these claims you're talking about. I'm asking you the same questions. You going to answer them? I've even copied them down and took the quotes off so it looks like it's coming straight from me, since you don't want to answer him.

    Yahoo pieces are clearly labeled commentary and from some guy that runs a boxing site I never heard of. I have seen nothing on ESPN, nor did you give a link. Your statement can only be backed up by having a source say they had their lawyers look at it. I don't care what guys like Fat Dan say unless it comes through the lawyers on this point. Look at your original statement. Journalist rantings don't count, especially when they are marked as commentary.

    Didn't Donaire say he was going to move to 126 anyway? Then again now that Mares is there we might suddenly hear ND change his tune by staying at 122. I'm ok with him not fighting Mares for now but ND definitely needs to step up with competition. It's gotta be: John, Gamboa, Rigo, M. Garcia, I'm missing a few others but...any of these guys are good selections.
