    I can only assume you’re being paid to do this.

    Floyd’s talking about making the most money possible. Money Mayweather. The clue is in the ****ing name. Why wouldn’t you try to do this as a freelance fighter? Why would he stay with Bob and get ****ed twice per year? Sorry that Pac wasn’t smart enough to leave Bob, really.

    I was even being nice and even handed by saying that in an ideal world these guys would fight out of pride - trust me they would.

    Floyd stalled. Do you want to unpack his statements?

    No. Do you want to do that without being intellectually dishonest, and do you also want to factor in Pac’s slavish devotion to Arum and Arum’s irrational hatred of Mayweather? Come back with something good and we might speak again this evening, if not I’d rather just chill.

    Floyd told you he waited until the time was right.

    Floyd told you these things can't be rushed.

    Floyd ducked Pac. There is no other interpretation.

    And I'll remind you...

    Floyd said that Ali shouldn't have fought the guys he did.

    Floyd said that Ward shouldn't fight Kovalev.

    Floyd said that Clenelo shouldn't fight Golovkin.

    Floyd said that Clenelo earned the right to cherrypick (pick and choose), just like he did.

    You're embarrassing yourself, guy. No need to make excuses for a man you never met.

    Are you capable of conversing with people in a normal fashion? What happens when you tell somebody they’re embarrassing themself to their face?

    Oh, and how are you doing on the fight prediction thread? Or won’t you brave it?

    Have I provided enough information for you to realize/accept that Floyd ducked a prime Pac?

    No. I can explain why another time.

    Tbh, I really don’t give a ****. I like both fighters but I don’t like misinformation. You seem like you’re alright, when you’re talking about your job, watch recommendations, discussions in the lounge etc. so I’d rather not fall out over who’s better between 2 guys I don’t know.

    Do you know what misinformation is?

    I provided direct quotes and referenced things Floyd said...

    Didn’t say anything wasn’t I simply said in what was billed as the biggest fight of all time between 2 of the best fighters of all time what exactly is the issue with the best testing as well??
    And why is it only in this fight do people have an issue with having better drug testing

    Floyd rejected the best testing in VADA. He also rejected the $5 million dollar drug test penalty.
