    Exactly and you get a bunch of butthurt Pac fans on this forum claiming Floyd is ducking etc. Fact is, Floyd tried to make the fight 3x and Pac said no each time.

    Floyd gets defensive or aggressive the moment you mention Pac, Pac openly calls out Floyd.

    What picture does that paint to you?

    Do you think Floyd wants the fight? Because he admitted on camera that he doesn't.

    The offer was the 40 mil & they would discuss the rest later. Alex Ariza confirmed that Pac could've negotiated, but didn't even bother. How is that Floyd's fault?

    no one really knows what happened in the talks in the past

    but what we do know is pac saying he wants the fight and mayweather doing everything to avoid it thats the bottom line

    Do you think Pac (or admittedly Bob) wants the fight? Fact is Floyd made 3 attempts to make the fight and each time Pac and his team said no. He could've negotiated but he just flat out said no.

    Floyd wanted all the PPV. There was nothing to discuss.

    Pac saying he wants it in front of the cameras is one thing, no one knows what goes on behind the scenes. Fact is Floyd tried to make the fight 3x and Pac did nothing to counter each offers.

    I think its pretty obvious Manny wants the fight. I don't know what Arum is doing behind the scenes, but he's apparently talking to the head of CBS. Floyd, meanwhile, is not doing anything. In fact, he said he would not be "pleased" if the fight happened. No joke, he really said that. LOL

    did anyone ask him about the 40m + 35% ppv rev he was offered by espinoza ?

    i thought that was a ****ing good offer (ESPECIALLY for your first opening offer)

    I think he is just sick of trying and knowing that Arum won't let it happen.

    Do you think that Pac and Arum want it when they say one thing on camera, but when the opportunity arises, they do the direct opposite? Why dont u question that part of the equation, rather than just Floyd?

    I can find interviews that say differently, as well as Pac's own strength coach so say that Pac could've negotiated, but didn't bother. Guess u will ignore that because u "like" Pac & hate Floyd right? Doesn't matter if it's true or not.

    What about the outdoor stadium and Manny's cut's need to heal (6 mos after the JMM fight)? Yet when they found out Mayweather (supposed to go to jail on May 2012 which was later pushed to June) wasnt available on May, they immediately said they were available on that date? What happened to the cuts?
