    It's the biggest fight right now. If he fights Mosley after Marquez(if successful) and wins who else is there?, anyone available to offer a major fight like Pac can?

    We all know Mayweather signed a 5 fight deal that could last 3 years or 2.

    it's amazing that such a talented skillful fighter like mayweather can make himself look like such a coward via his words and actions.

    the way he ducked and dodged Margarito, Cotto, Mosley ("I want $20 million gauranteed to fight Mosley) and now Pacquiao were all astonishing displays of pure cowardice.

    You can keep runnning, but sooner or later there will be nowhere to hide and no excuses left "Money".

    He find's a reason/excuse to not fight the fight that fans want to see(AND PAY FOR BTW).There is no where else for him to turn to make money yet he has a reason as to why NO ONE IS WORTHY of being in the same ring as him.It just does not make any sense.

    Man this whole forum doesnt get the concept of negotiation. Floyd wants more than 50% obviously so what good is he going to get by looking eager? this is business and money, not who can look the toughest to internet warriors. the fact is he's grossed more and sold more than pac in his last major fights and since then has done WWE and DWTS - anyone in that position would be a fool to not ask for the lion's share. maybe it'll change after the marquez fight doesnt sell as good but for now hes got a right to his stance.

    and he said what he said cause he doesnt like arum. its just talk and its what he does, but he knows he'll have to iron through the negotiations with him anyway..dont take it too seriously.

    Doubtful. Wynn's lost at least a billion $ since the recession began; it's hit Vegas really hard. He took a huge risk building another casino.

    i agree.

    thats what is so frustrating about someone with floyds ability.

    calzaghe fans also need to put their allegiances aside and read this...this applies to him more.

    No. Just pointing out Wynn's own money problems.

    Thats very odd I bet Floyd is glad that hes no longer with Top Rank anymore, I think if he was still there he would have fought Cotto, Margarito, and Pacquiao by now Top Rank was what brought Floyd along very well as a boxer, and Floyd was smart breaking away from Arum and becoming his own boss but is Marquez his own boss?, was Baldomir or Hatton their own boss? Whats next is he gonna say Shane Mosley needs to be his own boss? the only boxer that was on his own promotion wise was Oscar De La Hoya and they did make some great money together but imagine the money Floyd and Pac would make against each other if it were done right. Floyd needs to stop with the excuses and just make the fight happen, but its a 2 way street Pacquiao needs to call him out so does Cotto and he'll gladly step in the ring with them

    Floyd is scared of Pac, everyone knows it. He'll just keep making more excuses.
