    the fans is going to pay for the fight regardless... floyd will be up to his usual shenanigans in the 24/7 and people will get caught up in floyd taking his first L.... plus manny's hype right now is insane... the fight is going to be a hit no matter what... and if manny win's he is legendary

    :patsch I see reading is not your strong point either.

    Who cares what you would do if you were Manny's people. You aren't. You're just a kid who discovered boxing a bit ago and think they have all the answers.

    And you obviously don't research much...Pac WANTS to fight Mayweather. Get a grip...:patsch

    And Manny's place is getting cemented as we type.

    yeah but he is risking it with cotto.... i dont think he is going to fight cotto anyways but alot of you think he will...

    floyd wont be there forever.... if manny loses before he sees floyd.. the floyd fight will disappear.... cotto on the other hand will always be there

    You know who Pac's promoter is right? You know how Floyd hates him right? You know how Floyd said 60-40 right? You saw what happened with Hatton's 50-50 plea right?

    Add it up mofo!

    Right now, there's a better chance of Cotto vs. Pac then Pac vs. Mayweather because of all that.

    If Mayweather knew that a fight with Pac is not possible then he wouldn't have returned. The fight will happen regardless of past negotiations, Hatton asking for 50% was ridiculous at that point anyway and he hasn't done 1% of what Pac has done recently so Pac asking 50% can be negotiated.

    Pac can make a huge payday fighting Cotto. He won't budge on making less then PBF and vice versa with PBF. We're talking ego here.

    I think you are mostly right. I think Mayweather/Pacquiao will happen in the December-March range. Cotto who I think will beat Clottey will have a rematch with Mosley in the November-Jaunary range. Mayweather will beat Pacquiao I think Mosley will win the rematch but I am not 100% sure that he will. Mayweather will take on the winer of Cotto/Mosley II in the Auguest-Ocotober range. Mayweather would beat either Mosley or Cotto.

    Your saying this as if he knew Pac would beat Hatton. I think he just misses the spot light was why he came back. Boxing is what made him. Not dancing with the star or making it rain in strip joints. He craves the attention. He tries to damn hard for the attention. That is why he came. Not because he was looking to fight Pac.
