    You have a long list of trends to start if you want Mayweather to fight Pacquiao, I'll drop you some for history's sake. #takethetestwithmyorganizationonly, #leavetoprank, #jointmt, #take40millionandalltherestismine, #joinshowtime, #beatbradley, #beatmarquez and whatever else I'm thankfully forgetting.

    I will ask again unless Arum is securing the venue and putting up the money for the insurance and getting the lines of credit from PPV why does he have to be involved?

    I think you mean if Floyd doesn't fight Pac. Anyway Bradley would be easily Floyds best win at WW

    That's because what Floyd does is more apparent than Arum's doing. Floyd is on the front lines, Arum is behind the scenes. People flock to Floyd, a bunch of fighters are trying to get away from Arum. I don't see any other fighters trying to get out of their contract except for Ward.

    Fairly, he will be remembered as 99% businessman in the sport. Facing a cold audience, he only gave them what they rightfully deserve.

    Bradley is not a great win at 147, he's done nothing, if you disagree provide some evidence like I have done above. He's too small to do any damage at 147, Maidana is a way bigger threat to Pac than Bradley.

    At one point in time I have blamed both fighters and the safest answer will always be they ALL are at fault. And although I dont think anyone in Pac's camp is a saint, and have at one time or another blocked this fight from happening, it doesn't seem so now. They may have some peculiarities to work out but it does seem Pac's camp has agreed to the major stipulations. But when you have one campaigning for the fight (don't get me wrong I think Pac has also used the publicity to promote his documentary) and the other working on a contract with someone else, you really can't criticize people for putting the majority of the blame on Floyd. If Pac's camp is lying then why doesn't Floyd call him out on it? Die hard Pac and Floyd fans will say whatever to protect their fighter, thats a given and we can't do anything about it. That leaves us neutral fans to weed out what we think is true and what we believe to be nuthugging. You seem like an intelligent person so I find it hard to believe that you think both camps share equal blame.

    Floyd has a better set of wins than TMNT bradley. Floyd beat guys like Baldomir, Ortiz and Guerrero who are killers at the weight. When WW was weak during the time of Margo, Prime Cotto, Williams, Clottey, etc, floyd took a vacation because they are of no match. Floyd decided to fight at WW again when it is waxing hot with Ortiz, Guerrero and Maidana.

    Sorry but Roy Jones ducked way more than Floyd. Floyd actually fought the types of fights Jones avoided (Oscar, Canelo, Cotto, Marquez, etc)

    Jones refused to fight the equivalent of those fighters that were available to him.

    I wouldn't doubt it. I just don't understand the people who are happy about that. My brother in law hates Mayweather, he said "I hope he goes broke one day". Why? What does that do for you? It's weird to me that some people are so emotional about another man like that. That makes you a "hater". Criticizing is an opinion, hating is an emotion. And what a lot of Floyd-naysayers do is hate. Why does he upset them so much?
