    Good. I want Pac to fight Foreman whether or not Pac ever fights Mayweather. Go and get that 8th division championship belt and further etch his name in boxing history.

    yes, let pac duck the biggest fight in history so you can rub one off watching him vs foreman, ur a joke. Pac's stock plummets if he ducks mayweather

    If this fight does not happen, then I blame ALL parties involved. This is not just a boxing match, its an event, an extraveganze of mega proportions. We, the fans, have & eill continue to demand such a match take place!

    It looks likely that March 13th is out the window & we the fans are the only losers because of that. March 13th is about eleven weeks away, so hardly any time at all.

    If the fight does happen, March 13th won't be the date. Would not have had to wait long into 2010 to see a gem of a bout, but now that looks to be out the window!

    As much as I want to see Pac-Floyd happen, Pac doesn't NEED it to happen. That is, Pac doesn't need Mayweather for his legacy to be sealed. He's already a Top-20 ATG according to several experts.

    Foreman, however, has a 154lbs belt that would give Pac his 8th division title. It would be another historic accomplishment for the Filipino.

    Fight with Foreman was always on the cards if one with PBF fell through. The Pac V Floyd match will probably be later then if this one gets made.

    I think Pac will have 2/3 more fights then retire. Foreman next, Mayweather later in the year and one more depending how that goes.

    If some how Floyd does fight him in March it might be his last if he wins. If he losses maybe a rematch and rubber match or one more fight to win and retire off. Finish while on top. Else someone will have your number

    Foreman is probably the only guy they would move up to fight, so they could try to grab a belt at 154.

    Mayweather needs this fight much more than Pacquaio but boxing fans need it the most.

    how? because he just announced that he will take any test anytime except 2 days before the fight and anytime after. i haven't seen a response from PBF or Goldenboy. this shows me that Pac is ready to fight PBF. is PBF ready/want to fight Pac?

    Pac has called him out just like what PBF wanted him to do, where is PBF now?

    source? are you referring to the article that states he will take whatever test the NSAC wants up to 2 days pre-fight? Because you know, the NSAC doesn't do blood tests.
