    You know Bob Arum wanted the money
    Michael Konz wanted the money

    Pacmans huge entourage wanted the money.

    You could be right about PPV. I'm certainly no lawyer.

    From a non-lawyer point-of-view logic says if one side knew a guy was only 60% as Manny said, which was dumb for him to say, that should be disclosed. Nobody would have bet on Manny and most of the money was on him. The odds became more favorable for Floyd because the money shifted to Manny. His condition affected at least a few hundred million if we are to estimate based on things like a Super Bowl event.

    Manny really put his foot in his mouth in this one. How are you going to explain to a judge you were in fight condition when you quantified your condition at 60%?

    Is this just your opinion or do you have something to back this up?

    That's the issue imagine the ramifications of this fight if it was postponed brokers were losing THIER shirts with those astronomical ticket prices ..Unfortunatly Manny was forced to move forward wether he wanted to or not .

    Calling him a 'warrior' at this point is laughable.

    I mean how he can with a straight face say that's not the kind of fight he likes when in his "fight of the century" he basically did the same and ran for last 9mins straight expecting a victory, mayweather really seems to get to him

    That's what happened.

    And this takes nothing away from May's win.

    Injuries happen in the sport of boxing, just like cuts do.

    Ali gets full credit for beating Liston in their 1st bout (Liston quit because his shoulder was injured), Lewis gets full credit for TKOing Vitali and May will get full credit fro beating Pac.

    Roach and the doctors deemed the shoulder fighting fit. No excuses!! He tore it missing wide shots vs Mayweather. And it is what it is!!!!

    :deal

    so fighting with a torn rotator cuff against the best fighter in the world is and fighting threw the pain and not giving up is not being warrior?
