    Dude the video is very self explanatory.

    FLoyd wasn't "running" from Pacman because he was scared to fight him, he said FLoyd avoided the fight because he was very disturbed by the amount Pacman was going to get for the fight and 50 cent said that didn't sit well with Floyd.

    50 did say he couldn't understand why FLoyd always concerned himself so much with what his opponents make considering FLoyd stood to make 100 million for the fight, but he said Floyd has ALWAYS been like this in negotiating fights and makes himself too concerned with how much his opponents make.

    50 cent also CLEARLY stated that FLoyd isn't scared of FIGHTING Manny, and even though there's a big rift between FLoyd and 50, 50 clearly stated he believed that FLoyd would beat him if the fight ever got signed.

    Listen, i personally don't care why the fight wasn't made, I just want to see it happen. I couldn't care less what either fighter gets monetarily for the bout.

    but you're trying to imply in your statements that FLoyd is SCARED TO FIGHT MANNY. That's clearly inaccurate and it's confirmed by what 50 says in that video at least.

    I agree with you, both fighters have been on completely different trajectories for the past couple years.

    Pacman should just concede anything that Floyd wants, even some crazy split like 75-25, ring size, gloves, etc., and just get the fight done.

    At this current juncture, FLoyd is definitely the A-side fighter in that matchup. He'll probably end up getting around 110+ million when all is said and done with a fight with Manny, and Manny will probably still see close to 50 million. More importantly, the boxing fans finally win.

    Exactly...

    Because this fight will never ever happen . Floyd himself will make sure of that as he has done for the past 5 years .

    when it comes to Manny, Floyd doubts himself .

    So Just expect more roadblocks/excuses/contradictions to come.... :yep

    Anyday now we will hear ANOTHER brand new excuse....

    Anyday now....

    soon....

    Very soon..

    Obviously Pacman, but besides that what boxers should/could he have fought on his rise to the top and while he has been at the top to leave no question in the minds of boxing fans? Basically who did he duck/avoid at all weight classes since he went pro?

    Feeble. Google says offer made in jan 2012, and Pac signed an extension like 10 months later while stilll under contract. You must try much harder to excuse Floyds roadblocks, mr research

    * Antonio Margarito - stupid.. floyd gets criticized for fight the champ (baldomir) and not margo who had nothing to offer....
    * Shane Mosley prime shane ducked him...
    * Miguel Cotto arum wudn't let it happen
    * Paul Williams when was there a call for floyd and paul to fight, i don't remember one tbh
    * Kostya Tszyu again, why would tszyu give floyd a shot, he brought no money to the table back then, something people seem to forget. A little bit like ward or rigo, nobody wants to fight them because they don't draw big money and it's tough fight for anyone.
    ggg - too big and heck golovkins fought one world champ, he hasn't earnt it
    Martinez
    Freitas
    Casamayor
    Johnston
    Forrest
    Ricky Hatton @140
    MANNY PACQUAIO

    again all rest are just stupid. none of these guys wanted any of floyd because he was a nightmare to deal with.. he tried fighting hatton at 140 but hatton said he wasn't ready yet so floyd moved up. Obviously once hatton came to the table he made him come up in weight seen as he wouldn't fight him at 140..

    pedjr used the excuse to fight dela hoya to avoid round robin with margarito, clottey, cotto, not necessarily in that order.

    a midget took on the task pedjr avoided and came out on top.
