    Watch how real Manny tries to be on 24/7 ...oh wait wasn't floyd a part of the first episode. Mentioning Floyd name again trying to sell his fight again. Bad Omen. Focus on the man in front of you. If Manny loses ,and its a good chance he could. He should just retire.

    From the link you provided:

    These "winner takes the lion's share" or "winner take all" or "winner by knockout gets 60-40" things might work for something as crappy as Hopkins vs Jones II, but it's not going to happen for a legitimately big business fight like this one. There's way too much at stake.



    In short, I think Mayweather is asking too much considering he has a legitimate dance partner to attract money to this fight, and I think Top Rank and Pacquiao moved the goal posts a couple times, too. Fight's not happening now, probably not happening in November either. Nobody wants to take the gamble the other side is asking them to take.

    Freddie Roach said he would allow Pacquiao to give a blood sample one week before the fight, but no closer than three days before the first bell.

    I guess we know who really needs who now. Pac should of took the fight when he had a chance to. He should just retire already.

    The guy simply just has names more so than qaulity wins !

    The guy simply doesn't fight guys at their best ..And to make maters worse he refused to fight his closest rival .Too much talent to be wasted against guys that wont elevate your legacy.

    I'm a Mayweather hater but the events that transpired prior to Mayweather's jail time really made me think Bob Arum and Pac ducked the fight.

    When Mayweather seemed receptive to the Pacquiao fight. Arum had one excuse after another. First he claimed that the cut Pacquaio suffered during the third Marquez fight would take like 3-4 months to heal and therefore they couldn't fight in early May. Like wtf clearly a ridiculous excuse. They said late May or June would only work. By this time Mayweather would be in jail so that certainly seemed like a duck. Then soon after saying that, they said something about building a stadium for the fight that would take time and wouldn't allow for the fight to take place in early May. Both seemed like really flimsy excuses that make me think that they ducked the fight at this point.

    But then again, Mayweather always gets uncomfortable and hostile anytime hes questioned about Pac for years and years so its really hard to tell who really ducked or what was really going on here.

    But do you guys agree that during the aforementioned time, Pac/Arum ducked the fight?

    well, he is an ATG. he has an impressive resume. he beat Bradley in his last fight.

    no, you're right. how can a fighter such as Pac get a fight with someone like Floyd when there are fighters like Ortiz, Guerrero and Maidana about? Pac could never compete with these types of great fighters. ever.

    Pac is nothing but a bum who no one wants to watch fight. so don't ever let anyone tell you you're talking absolute **** when you make make posts like the one you've made. you're just talking common sense.

    They both didn't want the fight. That is quite simple to see.

    Manny arguably had more sleep when he was KTFO6 than Floyd has had ever since Manny came on the scene.

    Floyd don't want that fight. He has nightmares about this little man.

    On a serious note, you know damn well why Manny deserves this fight & you know damn well that he has tried to make this fight.
