    and Floyd did exactly just that, took back his #1 p4p mythical title by the end of 2009 latest beginning of 2010

    roach also admitted Pac and team were at fault for the first round of negotiations falling through. then again, we all already knew that. point is, roach loves to talk to the media and will say anything to get attention.

    i actually respect roach. he goes on record stating only the truth weather or not it benefits his fighter or not. admitting to ducking mosley, admitting fault in floyd negotiations. i have to respect a man for telling it like it is because this smoke and mirrors blame shifting bs just drags on and on at least roach holds himself accountable

    If Pac and Arum want the fight its there to make. The deal is there.
    Floyd and showtime do the show. And Floyd will get the Lion's share.
    Pac still stands to make alot more money than he has ever made before. Throw a rematch clause and its done.

    Its business before legacy. But all Pac, Arum and Roach are doing is providing false perceptions at the expense of Floyd. Now all that this is doing is making the fight harder to make. This is their last chance to make the fight. I think that Arum is just trying to milk the cash cow having Pac fight easier opponents and keeping him in the win column.
    They know that Floyd will give Pac the licken of the year if the fight takes place.

    Yes, it most certainly will. But to a far lesser extent, because Floyd is the A-side.

    I agree.
    Arum is protecting his cash cow.
    There are probably 3 or 4 welters that would knock Pac out.

    Most likely Bap will find an excuse to make the fight not happen, so Floyd is only left with Khan and GGG. Since Floyd is retiring next year, I want to see him go out with a big bang. If he doesn't fight one of these 3 I will not buy his PPV, and Floyd will not retire as a top 10 atg imo. Floyd will do it for the fans, if he doesn't then I can no longer support the guy.

    Mark y words, if Floyd signs to fight Khan it will magically turn into a cherrypick.

    but is that not exactly the point? the B-SIDE is making all these outrageous demands and putting up roadblocks? genuine question

    When you insist on a date that was already taken, say things that pac would not receive $40M this time around and Pac should bow down to him, it means that he is putting as much road block as possible for the fight.

    i highly doubt floyd cares about this TBH. He's said numerous times that he just wants his kids to be able to eat or something like that. He always references how Ali had to sell the rights to his name, which is fair to bring up.


    I see both sides of the fence. But if I was floyd I wouldn't care what people think anyways, everyone pretty much hates him lol.
