    Since when has the boxing community been so concerned about boring fights? I wouldn't suggest that Manny fears Mayweather, but maybe Arum and Roach do. Its a huge fight that would kill in PPV numbers, I'm not willing to believe that Bob Arum cares more about having good fights for fans than he does about money.


    Make the fight happen!!!!!

    It could be, maybe Arum cant even fatham Mayweather beating his best boxer. we know Pacquiaos down, but what about Arum? He did the same **** with Cotto in 2005 telling Mayweather he wont get the fight done, maybe Arum thought Cotto was his best fighter back then and didnt want Mayweather to beat him?? ARUM IS A *****!!!

    Its really thier way of saying that the fight isnt going to happen, which is what I said from the start..Its not the matchup that Roach and Arum are looking for. Floyd isnt gong to be right there to trade shots with pac and would pick him apart and most likely stop him in the mid to late rounds. Cotto too I think will beat Pac but at least Arum gets to keep it in the Top Rank family.

    Big suprise that Freddie & fat arse Arum dont want Pac to face Mayweather.
    :roll:

    What a pair of shitbags... its the fight most fans want & all they are interested in is protecting Pacquiao (yes, I know Cotto has every chance to beat Pac but nowhere near as good a chance as Floyd & THEY BOTH know it)... I hope the fans dont swallow this bull****.

    :-(

    Like I said in your thread, Pacs already the greatest of the era, nothing will change that unless Floyd or Marquez or Hopkins can rack up some huge wins b4 the end of the year

    And nah, not really...I don't care about buys, I ain't gettig a cut of the check, I care about exciting fights and fights between 2 fighters I wanna see fight

    This would prolly be neither, and Floyd hasn't done anything to earn a fight with Pac, this is karma, he held a whole division hostage, and didn't give us the fights we wanted to see the most, now he won't get a shot at Pac, though like I said b4 I seriously doubt he wants to fight Pac neways, so at the end of the day it dont really matter
