    Manny has not once said he wants the fight, espcially when all the spotlight is on him after a fight. Never once said "I want a Mayweather" so are we supposed to assume?

    yes now Mayweather is pretty much gave up on the fight but Pac can still put pressure if he actually left TR. Then and then only if the fight didnt happen I would blame Mayweather and say hes ducking. but the person whos turned down the thest and didnt even counter offer after 40 million, i cant say mayweather is the ducker here.

    If u believe Mayweather about join TMT, then u must believe Manny when he said he'll fight for charity :patsch:patsch

    If Manny would fight for free, why did he turn down 40 million??? I blame Pacquiao

    Only 1 time and that was for a catch weight. never has he missed the WW Limit. Mayweather met all pac's demands, pac turned down his. so who didnt try to make the fight???

    Do the math ? The math is Pac has taken 2 losses in the last 2 years. That's the math. why is he worthy of Mayweather prior to his 2nd Bradley win in the last 2 years. The math is 68M I.R.S. debt. now add that !

    You idiots ACTUALLY think a phone call from a fighter constitutes negotiations?? Floyd himself says he doesn't negotiate his own fights. Floyd is going to negotiate the biggest fight in history by himself and on the phone?? How f*cking dumb are you? Answer: Just as dumb as Pac fans who can't be objective.

    Everybody keeps getting lost in the Mayweather or Pacquiao **** when the one person truly blocking the fight is Arum, "Yesterday I was lying, today I'm telling the truth."

    Folks were saying the same thing about May/Cotto, then once Cotto left Arum, fight was signed immediately. Remember with each negotiation, Arum already had his own fighters lined up (Clottey, Cotto, Marquez (who had to leave GB for fight), Bradley, etc.) and found ways to make the fight not happen (need to build stadium first).

    Delahoya has recently started trying to rebuild relationship with Arum, but Arum has made it clear that none of his fighters will do business with Golden Boy until Haymon is gone.

    Top Rank ang GBP were co-promoting great cards together when Mayweather was retired.

    So basically, Mayweather has a history of cheating the scales.

    Well it's no secret that Arum hates Mayweather ever since the lawsuit to get out of contract. Arum has also openly disliked DLH as well but once Mayweather and GB started working together Arum completely cut them off. It's not even a debate, he openly forced Marquez and Mosley to leave GB before they got a shot at Pac.

    Lets point blame towards the right person.

    But did he cheat on the scales when Marquez moving up from 135? Mayweather knows when to take advantages

    Actually, Koncz implied that Pac would accept but Arum never agreed. Nothing was ever signed.

    We will all go back and forth on this issue but I know one thing for sure that isn't an issue. Pac was ktf unconscious for 4 minutes and had to be awakened with smelling salts, lmao.

    If Floyds PPV did flop. there's a number of reasons why I would be Happy and could imagine other boxing fans would be.

    1) Boxing Fans are getting smarter and aint buying the mismatches anymore - He should have fought PAC already.

    2)The excuse "what does he bring to the table?" becomes null and void if PAC n Floyds PPV sales are equal. Maidana & Guerero bring nothing to the table compared to PAC

    3)PPV sales out of the equation, based on skill and resume. the Best 2 fighters have less reasons/roadblocks not to fight each other.
