    Will the public demand the superfight again? And do u guys see it happening? Now that Floyd is on Showtime and Pac still with HBO it looks like that fight will be even harder to make but where does Pacquaio go from there? Marquez has a hard fight against Bradley and even if the wins he said he wont fight Pac again. Koncz recently said that they would be willing to negotiate with Floyd and would accept 60-40 and drug testing. I never believed that this fight would ever happen in 10-12 because both men were making tons of money fighting lesser opponents but now that there arent any sellable fights for both except that dehydrated LHW Archie i see the chances of Pacquaio/Mayweather bigger then ever. This fight would still sell around 1.8-2 Million on PPV.

    Thoughts?

    why didn't he go to ShowTime to fight Mosley an why should he leave arum if they can agree a contract beetwen the fighters such as the split an the drug testing it doesn't matter.

    From what i read he doesnt have a long term contract with HBO. So he could leave HBO and go to Showtime for a fight and came back. Just the way he did with the Mosley fight.

    He could but Arum has made it pretty obvious he is done with Showtime. Koncz says he is willing to work with Showtime

    They had many chances to fight and did not. They will never fight. There is as much of a chance Floyd fights Manny ever in his career, as he does of fighting a prime Hearns,Duran and Leonard. He won't fight him. There is no use mentioning it. I knew back in 2010 that they would never fight.

    floyd will make 10000000 demands and fight wont happen, even if it does happen. because of floyd who could have said, **** all those demands, everybody wants it, lets realy give the fans what they want and do prime floyd vs prime manny, that bout wouldve been historic and floyd because he ***** and attitude missed it, plain simple.

    So why did Manny refuse drug testing in 2009 when purse was 50/50?

    Why did he refuse 40 million dollars even though his stock has already dropped and he didn't deserve anywhere near that amount and has made nowhere near that amount in his entire career. His highest payday before that was 6 million :).

    If Bradley wants to fight Mayweather - Has to leave Arum
    If Pacquiao wants to fight Mayweather - Has to leave Arum

    Get the pattern...

    why would Floyd just bring up randome blood tests out of nowere when he has never requested them before but the minuet Pac comes along be brings up randome testing an that 40 mil wasn't a fair offer at the time pac deserved a fair deal an what are you talking about 6 mill are you messing an ye I no Floyd posted what he makes on twitter but he gets more than that.

    in 2009 manny was king of boxing and if one has to make demands, than it was manny and not mister vacation floyd!!

    would you take a fight for 40 million, when around 50-60 is the fair deal?

    6 mill, he made way more than that.

    you know whats ynsab means :lol:
