    Far better and beyond opponents like Ortiz, Maidana and Guerrero. :lol: Bradley and Marquez bring excitement, risk and actual challenge.

    99 excuses from arum.. some of them are god awful. maybe manny had problems back in the day with this fight but he knows he has to take it now before its to late.

    with arum out the picture it gets made alot easier then anyone would expect.

    Floyd rubs his chin and thinks to himself......................


    .............south paw..................fast feet..................high output..............serious engine...........punch power......................


    ....................Floyd thinks................."do I not like that"




    In Floyd's head Pacquiao is the bogey man fueled up on A-Sides.

    Floyd also said, "All he has to do is to take the test and we have a fight".

    No, there is no guarantee. Remember, Floyd also promised to fight Pac if the latter would just take the test. When Pac agreed to it, no PPV share and eventually the demand to take care of Marquez and Bradley problem came up. After beating Bradley, this is now the latest demand - to leave Arum and sign with the Mayweather promotions.

    No he won't. Mayweather's demands will remain the same, leaving TOP RANK is just one demand out of many others which are all ridiculous and comical.

    Because it's obvious that leaving TOP RANK isn't Mayweather's one and only demand.

    If floyd had any interest in fighting manny it wouldve happened by now. if floyd wanted to fight manny he could make the fight anytime he wanted. he doesnt so it wont happen. people need to move on already. this isnt even the best available fight now if it ever happened itd be nothing but a sideshow

    "I don't believe Floyd not fighting us has to do with Bob," Koncz said. "Why did he wait until he exhausted all other excuses before saying he wouldn't fight Manny if Bob was involved? First he brought up the drug testing [during the initial 2009 failed negotiations]. Then he wanted Manny to sign with him. Then he wanted to pay Manny only a flat fee of $40 million for the fight instead of sharing a percentage [of the revenue], and now he can't fight Manny because Bob would be involved?

    "Why did he wait so long to bring that up? If that's true, why not use that excuse a few years ago?":deal

    the story does not add up:hey

    are you a boxing promoter or something? :bbb

    how sure are you that if Manny leaves Arum the fight will be made? You and Floyd are close? or Maybe Ellerbe?

    Please tell me more, I would love to hear from ya! :hey

    The people that voted 29% in favor of the fight not happening if Pac were to leave Top Rank at the end of his contract later this year are thinking like Pac's promoter Bob Arum, the real reason and the main reason why this fight has not yet happened. They like he don't want to see this fight happen.

    Bob Arum used to promote Mayweather and the same reason that we did not get to see a prime showdown between "Money" Mayweather vs Miguel Cotto while both were fighting under Top Rank or why Bob wouldn't do Mayweather vs DeLahoya while Floyd was still under contract or even why when Mayweather was still champion at 130 and Bob's other two well known Top Rank stars at 126, that being Barrera and Morales, all while under the same banner with Top Rank at the time wouldn't be let anywhere near Floyd and that was because not only did he feel that he wouldn't get his own perceived over inflated cut out of those fights but because he knew that Floyd would beat them all impressively and decisively. And in the event that that happened those guys, mainly Cotto, Barrera and Morales, would not be an easy PPV sell afterwards. Especially if we are talking about matching Floyd up against those guys anywhere from 130-140lbs, where Floyd was a beast in all areas of the game and nobody not even a prime Shane or Kostya wanted no part of him.

    Same thing with Pacquiao, Bob knows that if he puts Manny in the same ring with Floyd, the man that he used to promote and even went as far to publicly compare in terms of greatness to Sugar Ray Leonard, Muhammad Ali, Roberto Duran & Sugar Ray Robinson, Floyd would expose Pac's reckless on charges and beat him almost decisively at will and prove that every thing he said in praise of Floyd's skills years ago was all true.

    Bob Arum knows this and the fans who voted 29% saying Pac should basically stick with Top Rank after his contract expires and have had the opportunity to carefully watch both fighters in action and their skill level in the ring since the first of the failed negotiations took place in 2009 all knows this and that being said by their personal votes is the reason they like Arum really don't want to see Pac in there with Mayweather. Hell, they all would rather see somebody completely bigger than Floyd fight him like Martinez, Andre Ward or even Klitschko!
