    floyd don't care about that... Would you?

    - You already know your a 1st ballot HOFer
    - Your easily worth over 100 million.
    - Growing up you didn't know where your next meal was coming from
    - Your dad can barely speak cause he's punch drunk
    - Ali sold his name for 20 million and now has parkinsons
    - RJJ is punch drunk and still fighting at the age of 50
    - Tyson is broke doing broadway shows to pay off the feds

    Would you really care what your fans think?

    Pac has virtually cave in to all of floyd's demands. Money, date, venue, testing agency, etc. Now floyd is demanding that pac fights without his promoter who he is under contract with. Floyd knows this is impossible and tantamount to ducking. It's like pac demanding that floyd not fight using showtime knowing that floyd is under contract with them. I know you love floyd but hiw you defend this duck is silly.

    saying floyd does not care is telling lies ofcourse he cares he is human he would rather have good feedback when your own son is reading comments on social media calling you a coward day in day out it does not effect you?

    That's none of my business - but to allow another man, a rival no less, to tell you how to conduct your business affairs (who to sign with, who he has to fight first, become a free agent etc) is absurd. And completely unrealistic.

    There are so many factors involved in long-standing agency contracts that are beyond our ability to debate. Guarantees, stability - old fashioned loyalty even.

    It's none of our business as fans. Maybe Pacquiao believes he is too busy with his extra-curricular activities to set up, establish, and run a promotional outfit? WHO KNOWS?

    What I do know, is that telling him he must leave the person who made him rich and famous, when that person is on the cusp of the richest purse in boxing history is the realm of FANTASY. And once again does nothing but block the fight.

    Personally I would like to see Pacquiao fight independently under MP promotions. But of course, that is just my uneducated opinion and I know nothing of the realities of trying to set up an independent promotional firm. If it was that easy then most of the top names would have done it without ties to a larger entity.

    Even if Pacquiao would leave Arum, he would ask for something else. He knows that Pac has a contract and that even if Pacquiao would want it, it's something impossible to do. It's the perfect way to duck the fight. During this time, he wants Cotto that is with Arum if I'm right...he is one pathetic person. Floyd...please retire.

    Mayweather beat Arum when he bought out his contract and made all that money fighting Oscar. That's why Arum is carrying a grudge all these years.

    I think Pacquiao should push Arum aside provided Al Haymon isn't involved in Mayweather's side. Seems like a fair deal.

    Yeah, of course but that happens to the large majority of dudes with a lot of money. He probably has trouble making himself a sandwich
