The fight isn't relevant anymore dumbass. Pac has arguably lost 3 fights in a row Pac had his chance.:deal
But it was ok for Cotto to be Floyd's opponent after Tony Margarito made Cotto kneel & quit ? It was Ok for Floyd to fight Judah after he was whupped by Carlos Baldomir?? That was the VERY REASON Floyd fought them He saw them get whupped. Pac man has not been beaten badly though has he. He really beat Desert Storm as we all know. The KO loss to JMM was legit and his other fight with him were close . The hardest fight he has was against Margarito he said that himself he hit harde than any other. opponent previously. The reason you & your beloved Floyd say this isn't a relevant fight is because Floyd is still scared Manny can beat him & his 0 is history
Cotto was on a three fight winning streak, and had a title and the number one position at 154. The Judah fight was already signed when Judah lost to Baldomir which is why Floyd fought Baldomir next. Let Pac get a few victories under his belt before you call for this fight. Also realize that Floyd has not fought ANY top rank/bob arum fighters since he left that promotion. That to me speaks volumes as to the true reason the fight will never take place, cuz we both know Pac likes getting drilled from behind by bop arum.
He was never interested anyway. From blood testing to "You take $40Million and I'll take all the rest including 100% of the PPV earnings".
Even during the gloves loader's "Most feared man since Hagler" comical campaign, Arum wasn't going to make that fight even if Mayweather contacted him for it. Sadly, the majority of the fans are too dumb to know this. Only time Arum and Mayweather were going to make a fight is Pacquiao/Mayweather simply because of the public demand and insane money involved. Mayweather, obviously, had other plans during those negotiations and made life easier for Arum, who clearly wanted to keep Pacquiao fighting guys within his stable to keep the business safe.
If it wasn't relevant to the fans why do we have all these threads and discussions about it? Of course its relevant, and honestly it's more relevant to Mayweather than it is to Pac since a win would elevate him into the upper eshelons of boxing greats. Not fighting Pac for whatever reason, is going to be a huge dent on his legacy. If that wasn't the case, the poll on this thread would reflect. Instead about 67% of the boxing fans on this thread think he's ducking Pac. True or not, in life perception is often reality, and his legacy will suffer.
Whenever people talk about Floyds career in years to come they will always say ''but he didn't fight Pacquaio''.
hey nothing wrong with that. as long as you've got the money, and your health is fine. legacy don't pay the bills you know? :rofl chicken
Another dumbass that knows nothing about the sport PBF was scheduled to fight Zab before Zab even fought Baldo.:deal Baldo beat Zab and took the luster off the fight. Everyone wanted to see PBF-Zab before Zab lost it was a huge fight back then. If PBF hadn't fought Zab people like would have said he ducked the man. He fought Zab then fought the man who beat him the lineal champ in Baldo for a career high payday. You don't know what you're talking about. BTW no one is worried about Pac I've been here for years saying I would love to see the fight because I unlike you know PBF is a stylistic nightmare for him. It's Pac's fault he refused testing otherwise we would have seen him get a boxing lesson by now.
A win now wouldn't do anything but be bashed by peoplee saying Pac was old and past it. It really wouldn't add anything back in 2010 it would have meant something but not nearly as much now. A win over Canelo will mean more than a win over a past prime Pac who's arguably lost 3 fights in a row.
