    ...And he still is nowhere near as much of a piece of **** as your Uncle Bob. Even if he really tried I don't think he could ever manage that. :deal

    He didn't fight Margarito because he wanted a guaranteed shot at Cotto after for more money (Margo and Cotto and Floyd were all under Arum at the time). Arum offered him Cotto for LESS money than he would make for fighting Margorito, when Cotto was the champ. Floyd called bull****, bought out his contract, and fought Baldomir for the belt and the same 8 million he would have made fighting Margarito.

    If Arum wasn't such a slimey **** and had actually given Floyd fair money and a fair shot at Cotto after Margarito you might have seen that fight. Instead Floyd ****ed Arum and picked up a strap and 8 million for beating a jobber in Baldomir. I can't say I would have picked differently, personally, given that particular set of circumstances.

    I don't think choosing to fight the lineal WW champ instead for the same amount of cash is really ducking

    Look at Floyd's resume lately. Are you kidding?
    There is no defense for bringing hatton and marquez up to 147 and beating them up. None.

    If that is ever true, 14 day cut off sounds more than reasonable. Pac should just accept it. I am just wondering if this proposal was during the negotiations or just came up with it today.

    Floyd said he made the offer before the mediation started.

    Yeh -- now we would see something.
    But -- then our kids will want to do the same thing.
    They will think that cheating and lying is cool as long as you make money.
    And that PED's will make you great.

    if this is true i change my tune about the whole mess and it would really seam to be PAC that doesnt want this fight. As most of you have said, 14 days is completely reasonable. Im sure if a poll was made it would reflect that.

    Juiceman doesn't want the fight it's clear as day. I don't see how anyone can defend him here.
