    What if Mayweather asked Pac to leave Jinkee? Are you just gonna sau, there would be no excusable roadblock if he did?

    Since when was forcing a fighter to leave his promoter excusable in the first place? Can you imagine if Pac demanded Floyd leaves Al Haymon for a fight?

    The one coming up with the roadblocks is the ducking coward. Pac just wants to fight, Floyd coming up with all these excuses not to.

    But look at the area were Chino had success, on the inside. Pac is not and inside fighter. He likes to get in and get out. When the fight was at the middle of the ring China had trouble tagging Mayweather.

    Speaking of all time greats, Pac fighter of the decade...Floyd...not so much. How can you be the all time great when you weren't even the greatest fighter of the decade you supposedly ruled in? :lol:

    He should fight Thurman or Porter over a Maidana rematch.
    The same result happens in a rematch with chino.

    Don't confuse a swarmer (Pacquiao) with a brawler (Maidana), two totally different styles. I know a lot of us want to believe that Maidana exposed something in Mayweather, the truth is Castillo, DLH and Cotto all had a measure of success using this style, but all lost.

    The only thing this fight told me is Mayweather duped many into buying a rematch should it happen, and Maidana is a little better than I gave him credit for.

    Article was written by Dan Rafael, you posting that article, no one would even read that. What waste of time.

    Who cares, at the end of the day... mayweather doesnt want any part of pacquiao whether he leaves arum or not. Excuses will always be there.

    You gotta overlook them boys cause they just looking for some nuts to swing on. Even Maidana don't agree with that ****. They looking for a savior. It wasn't Maidana and it won't be Pac. 46/0 read it and weep.

    21 loss for sure, Castillo I. The fights with DeLaHoya and Maidana could have been wins, losses, or draws for Mayweather or his opponent.

    Who else troubled him?

    Castillo in their rematch (but a Mayweather win), Judan (in the 1st half of the fight), Hatton (somewhat), Mosley (for a minute). Ortiz (for a few rounds), Cotto and Alvarez (but not enough to win it).

    I really do not like Mayweather but I won't deny he is a future Hall of Famer.

    I 'd like to see Maidana get a rematch... but I doubt he'd win. I doubt he'd even do as well as he did on Saturday.

    1st point about jinkee is irrelevant, not only is the premise unrelated to any previous negotiation that has taken place it is also absurd because no one will ask a boxer to leave a spouse for a fight. There is no precedent which leads me to believe you are just reaching for anything and everything.

    2nd al haymon is a manager not a promoter, but to answer your question it has been common place for promoters to get fighters to leave and sign with them in order to fight their prized fighter. not saying that is right but don kind did it for years and bob arum has done it many times.

    3rd. You have Alex ariza on tape along with roach, both saying pac sabotaged the negotiations. Then you still have arum sitting around without applying for any permits for the stadium that he said he had to build for this fight. Since he is on vacation still (basing this on the fact that no ppv numbers for pac bradley 2 have yet to be released and the world was told that they would be released when arum came back from vacation) this is is understandable as that might be his first priority when he gets back.

    They don't attack the same way when they have their opponents against the ropes. Manny has an easier attacking rhythm and pattern to predict when he has his opponent on the ropes. He'll take a jab step forward and backward, and then throw straight punches and then move out and in again, but he gives his opponents enough space to set up their counter shots and if you have enough time to set up your shot, you can timed him on the way in. It's totally different to the way Maidana attack his opponents and carries over with all of his weight and just mauls you on the inside with looping overhand punches all over the top of your head and he's more rugged and harder to push off and create space against for counter shots because he put his head on your chest and mauls you until you can tie him up for the ref to break it up.

    Don't make Manny something that he isn't. Manny is a mid-range pressure fighter, he's not a rough inside pressure fighter where he leaves you no choice but to fight on the inside against the ropes. Manny always want to fight on the outside and at mid-range and doesn't fight dirty. Styles make fights. Manny is an aggressive fighter, but he brings a totally different type of aggression that wouldn't consistently work against Floyd. Apples and oranges.

    You're a gullible little ****. That's the problem.


    Mayweather will fight Maidana and make another ton of money because ******s like yourself will actually do the dirty work for him by claiming Maidana won the fight, when it was clear as day he never came close and he will never come close, yet Mayweather will get another 30 + million or more off fighting his wild dirty ass again.

    Everybody up in arms a year ago when Mayweather twittered that he was putting Alexander up as a possible opponent, we didn't even end up with Alexander we ended up with the guy Alexander totally outboxed, not just once, but ****ing twice.

    Mayweather and his team must be laughing all the way to the bank.
