    lol @ one sided beatdown:rofl floyd aint fighting baldomir :rofl floyd hasn't had a one sided beatdown since he fought baldomir.

    delahoya was no one sided beatdown
    Hatton same thing

    pac -diaz = one sided beatdown
    pac-delahoya= one sided beatdown

    see the difference:rofl

    Pac will give floyd a tough fight win or lose. Only a fool would think this will be a one sided beatdown:lol:

    arum is just doing his job as a promoter. he's just posturing and strengthening team pacquiao's bargaining position in possible negotiations by showing that they are not chasing after mayweather for a fight. he's just showing his "poker face" for this possible fight so that they can get a better slice of the pie.

    umm it's not like pacman is gonna keep fighting for long. Pacman has said he has 2 fights left at the most after hatton.

    Pac-mosley/cotto
    pac-mayweather

    2 big payday for pac before he retires. Pac likes money so he wouldn't say no to a 15-20 million dollar payday vs mayweather.. that for sure :D

    Whats funny is that just after the DLH fight I went up to Wildcard and spoke with Freddy, he said he is not interested in a fight with Floyd at all, its not the fight itself he isnt interested in its the negotiating process, besides Floyd wont fight an Arum fighter anyways, I mean didnt Floyd and his fans say they wont do business with Top Rank?

    Either way Freddy said the same **** long ago, I think they are right though, Why should manny have to accpet the lesser of the split to fight Floyd when Manny has been finsihing fights the way you want to see a fighter finish a fight.

    ALL you ever do is hate on Floyd....

    Sign what papers...the 8 million dollar contract...why would he fight Shane right off the back?? A tune up is a good idea...

    Tony is gone for a year-get over it...

    Why didn't Mosley sign in 2006??:think

    I'd call a 1 sided beat down against Hatton...Hatton won 2 rounds at best and was getting popped with counter left hooks and straight right hand leads the whole night...:nono

    Manny sells out arenas by himself, probably doesnt do that well in terms of PPV but there are other names such as Hatton that can reach those marks. in reality Freddy is correct dealing with Floyd means giving up the larger portion of the money, and the way Pacquiao fights, he deserves the bigger portion, though Floyd will argue he is the star, I doubt Floyd is a bigger star than Manny Pacquiao.

    ppv buys show otherwise....

    I mean floyd-baldomir did 375,000 while pac-marquez did 275,000

    floyd-oscar 2.4 million and oscar-pac 1.4 million

    pacquio-diaz 250,000 while mayweather-judah did 300,000

    hatton hasn't even had a ppv since mayweather...how is he a big draw....he fought on versus 1 time against lazcano i think...

    hmm says he respects Arum.. cause what would boxing be like without him in history?.....I guess he probably doesn't want to deal with PBF calling the shots and having to make drama along the way with an uncertain comeback. I mean who really knows when PBF is coming back? So why wait for him and revolve all your time and effort when you can focus your priorities somewhere else. Should always have a backup plan. Also, it can be a tactic employed/ reverse psychology to coax PBF out.... like saying "he ain't nobody cause we'll be fighting people better than him or ducked". But I'm sure they'll be able to accommodate PBF IF he fully returns to the sport. He is well aware of what the fans want to see..... PBF should stop jerking our chains with circulated rumors.... Man up... step up or shut up and stay retired.

    I dont beleive the numbers for the Baldimor fight to be honest with you, Floyd Oscar you act like Floyd did that on his own, that was Oscars fan base and you know it, there were very few Mayweather fans who actually got tickets to the fight itself.

    Judah Mayweather okay they split and the crowd proves it, so 150 k each IMO.
    its like I said Pacquiao is the star of the two, when you ask people about Floyd some love him some say he is boring, when you ask people about Pacquiao you never hear anybody say he is boring to watch.
