    That is right I said it. Floyd made some good comments on his interview where he said Manny will not say that he wants to fight Floyd. I think Manny doesnt want any part of Floyd and I will not be surprised if it is very difficult to make this fight even in the wake of the huge amount of money thrown their way.

    And let me add, Pac is right in his decision to not say he wants floyd. Floyd is going to end his run if Manny grows a set of balls and steps into the ring with him.

    Yeah right man. Manny just brutalized a man Floyd avoided and you say he is afriad of him? its sad that Pac had to fight an elite WW on his second fight at WW before Mayweather.

    I doubt it. Its probably a case of money and splits and crap. If he calls out Floyd, well then Floyd says he needs me....I don't need him. I'm not a fan of either guy, but I hope this fight happens one way or the other.

    I think Manny's silence is all TOP RANK's and Bob Arum's strategy.

    For better leverage when the negotiations start.

    And c'mon, Floyd is great, but Cotto was far more intimidating and scary to fight than Floyd.

    Floyd might outbox you for 12 rounds. Great. So what. Not so scary.

    Cotto's reputation says he could cut you in half with his body shots.

    Cotto is a very good fighter. I think he has definitely faded through all the wars he has been in. I have a lot of respect for him, but he isnt a Floyd Mayweather.

    Mayweather is a master boxer. He will give pacman a boxing lesson. mark my words. IF this fight gets made mayweather will have a huge psychological edge because I dotn believe pac actually believes he can beat Floyd Mayweather.

    I also dont believe for one second Freddie Roach actually thinks they can win either. Roach just wants one massive payday to end the pac run.

    Mayweather does have a chance but to say Pac is afraid and he even believes he cant win is stretching it. Pac is on top of the world feels invincible and looks invincible. This fight has to be made but i have a feeling due to Floyds style it will probably end up not living up to the hype.

    NOBODY avoids Floyd. Everyone's been calling him out and Floyd never signs.

    If you're intelligent businesswise, don't call him out. You can negotiate good terms if you're the one called out instead.

    Everyone is calling him out, even Hatton wants him again, but Floyd just says talk to my managers lol.
    He says he runs his own show but then tries to say he doesnt make the decisions. Floyd is trying to convince people that he does not need Pac, looks like it is working with some people too

    Pacquiao never calls anyone out though, why should it be any different with Mayweather?

    We all know what Shane would say (and has actually said) "Welcome to the welterweights Pac, now time to fight the Welterweight King." :D

    None of this, he hasn't called me out ****.

    What is wrong with people with their whole obsession with calling people out?

    Fights are made in the negotiating room with lawyers, not in an interview with a mic in front of you.

    The PPV revenue will be 9 figures. It'll take some time to negotiate and materialize.
