    You're thinking "scared" as in a man scared of another man. Both Pac, Arum and Floyd think business. I know for a fact Arum didn't want the fight, I know that although Pac would get in there with anyone Arum puts him in, he wasn't exactly keen for it. Arum & Pac weren't keen on Mayweather bout because Pac was on an undefeated streak, PPV star and raking in the cash fighting much less riskier opponents. They knew Floyd would make big money but also big risk. If The risk reward ratio was 0% risk + 40mil, heck even 20mil, I bet you Pac+ co would have pushed for that fight in an instant.

    Likewise, Floyd also see this way, all his statements proves towards this point. Health comes first, boxer is like being a cop one shot your dead, he has to be on steroids how can an ordinary fighter go to extraordinary. This is all recognising the fact that this guy is a big risk. Floyd analysed risk/reward ratio, and it didn't calculate. Basically the reward he would get which is 100mil or so, is not worth whatever % risk he assigned to Pac.

    Now one thing is obvious, he sees Pac as a risk to his undefeated record...yet all his fans are somehow convinced that its a signed, sealed, delivered victory. Just lol.

    Floyd is not going to trade the way Bradley did. Floyd always aims to look good in the ring. He's going to pot shot. If he does that, Pac will counter punch him. Once Floyd is on the ropes, he will not know what to do when a flurry of punches are coming his way. His shoulder roll will not be as effective as a right handed fighter.

    The main reason Floyd can be beaten is his mental state. He hasn't fought Pac yet and he is already mind fvcked. What more if he is in the ring with Pac.

    Its about Floyd? Your statement reads "he's not gifted like that", as in rating Pac's ability overall. 4 lineal championships, and defended said "vacant" titles except for JMW. But still, not gifted but find me another flyweight with a feat that even comes close.

    I voted YES Manny can still beat Floyd. Two very interested people obviously agree with me

    Floyd Joy Sinclair Mayweather jr and his father Floyd sr. The list of excuses they give for not fighting Pac are ludicrous Childish even. Any person that still buys into the Mayweather smoke & mirrors bull**** seriously need to get their heads examined

    Boxing X, After reading your analysis, I came up with a conclusion that Pacquiao now is not as great as he was 5 or 6 years ago. What you said about him is his past not present, OK? He's too slow to catch Floyd and his dangerous weapons like footworks and speed of punch are not the same. Above all else, his chin can be cracked.

    I don't see it that way at all. I think Floyd was just saying that to put **** in the game. I believe that he supremely confident of a victory over Pac. His pride and his sense of being wronged by Arum won't let him concede. If Arum really want that fight to happen, all he has to do is man up and apologize to Floyd for the bull**** he tried to take him through and the fight will happed in no time. Actually I think the fight is still gonna happen but it will happen on Floyd's timetable because believe it or not he is in charge of his own destiny.

    Well, at least you read the analysis and had something worth while to argue back with.

    lol you actually buy that BS? So explain why Floyd was so worried few years ago, for the first time he asked for drug test? I mean at the time nobody was doing drug tests, and Floyd has never done it before, what prompted it? I mean do you ask a skinny guy if he's on steroids? You ask if you're worried, and Floyd was worried. But it was Arum back then right, so why bother with tests?

    Second negotiations. Pac has agreed to full testing up to day of fight. Floyd said no more 50/50 that boat has sailed, he mentioned 60/40 or whatever, so where was Arum then?

    Third non-negotiation. Pac goes on national TV and says he accepts full testing + 60/40. Suddenly Arum comes into situation.

    Absolutely unjustifiable. Floyd don't want none of that.

    "My health is more important than money", pertaining to fighting Pacquiao. What do you think that means? That "Pac has no chance of beating me"? lmao.
