Throwback Money: We been ready for the Pac fight! Heres my outfit

I remember this. This is soooo overlooked or dismissed by *******s. Mayweather ultimately wore that same fight outfit for the Ortiz fight.

 

Was about to say the same exact thing!

:deal

 

So he pulled out an outfit and claimed it was made specifically for the Pac fight...big deal. What I'd rather see is actual evidence that he tired to make it happen...phone transcripts, emails, whatever...who gives a **** about some shorts...

...Pac-Mayweather will forever be a "what if", but the bottom line about the whole thing is, it was ****ed up on both sides. They both let us down.

 

Err, yeah, having an outfit concretely proves he was ready to fight Pacquiao. You have a halloween (which is in October) themed costume for a fight that was supposed to happen in March? Yeah, makes sense, Floyd.

 

yeah we all know he was saving it for Ortiz when he planned on fighting him in Octo..........

 

SO what there are tons of fights through history that were "what ifs" and there will be fights that are "what ifs" in the future....

 

Yeah cause you can only wear colors in the ring that match the holiday of the month you are fighting in.atsch

 

i remember the shorts black with orange patches

 

The emails reported by Hauser from Manny's camp. Manny crying about deadlines to testing instead of just accepting full USADA testing like everyone else, Bob arum and his no fight because he needs to build a stadium excuse, and etc. Isn't enough for mrtony and Rico to realize the reluctance for the fight was coming from Manny's side.

 

I don't think any fight in boxing history shouldn't be a "what if" as much as Pac-Mayweather...it'll probably be a very long time before we see a fight that clamored for by the masses. That fight not happening in '09, '10, '11 is the biggest blunder in boxing history, imo...

"the thing that you guys don’t know that I do is that he’s called pac, he’s offered him 3-4 different times more money than he’s been paid for a single bout to date and pacquiao has declined the terms, the only thing was to test the day of the fight. whatever now. if he took the test, then Floyd would have nothing else to say. but bottom line is people hate floyd because he talks so much ****, but he has never entered the ring without knowing he was going to come out the victor. Manny could have made more than he ever has, but he got even more greedy and that greed ****ed up his money and a chance at the title fight with Champ…. I’ve talked to trainers from both sides and people even in Freddie Roaches camp who said that no way pac could defeat floyd. they didn’t say it would be close, they said they didn’t think he could hang with floyd period."

 

The reluctance was on both sides. I've softened on my views on FMJ over the years, and gravitated towards Pac's side being more to blame, but FMJ doesn't get away scot-free. I think at a time, he was very concerned with losing his 0 to Pac...I think he saw something in Pac (other than the ped accusations) that gave him some serious concern. Maybe he even thought there was a good chance he'd get robbed, who knows, but I think that at this point, *******s and *****s alike should come to the realization that the real loser in the whole saga was us...the fans.

 

the famous date was another 1. bob said pac couldnt fight on the date floyd wanted because pac fugged up his lip vs magarito. bob said it would take 5-6 months for it to heal. then, marquezs name came up i believe. and bob goes he could fight him on the same date floyd wanted.atsch bob is 1 senile mofo :deal
