    Floyd is off the hook?

    Just a thought...

    I really do think Joshua has a chance of beating PAC and i'm surprised Roach is allowing this to go ahead could this ruin a potential late 2010 Mayweather/Pacquiao fight?

    The gloss would be off this mega fight if Clottey were to defeat PAC and because Floyds style would be a nightmare for Clottey, Floyd beats Clottey and says "told you so!"

    don't give Clottey many chances in this fight.

    If Clottey does somehow pull of an upset, Floyd will be off the hook with regards to Pac but that won't make Floyd's legacy any better. He still needs to fight someone.

    I wouldn't say Floyd was off the hook but he would be in the driving seat in any future negotiations between the two.

    I think it may even negate a fight between the two we only want to see it because of Pacquiao's "hot streak" of wins

    I cant see Clottey beating Pacquiao at all to be fair
     
  8. Clottey is big and rugged with solid overall skills but I just think pac will be too quick for him.

    Im tempted to against Pac for the 4th time in a row :D I think if Clottey takes his time and does his own thing he will have success in the later rounds and could possibly stop Manny.

    you think Pac is ever going to negotiate with Floyd if he asks more than 50 percent? You're f'n ******ed.

    I agree i keep on betting against Manny and he keeps coming up with the goods

    Trouble is if he does convincingly beat Clottey i fear we will be no closer to a Mayweather fight.

    I'm hoping these proposed March fights are all part of a massive build up to a late 2010 fight between FMM and PAC

    You got it right there. If manny wins vs Josh and Floyd didn't fight a legit contender, no fvcking hell will Manny agree to a 50/50 deal.

    Yes Manny is fighting a dangerous opponent Floyd needs to man up and do the same even if he does go for Tim Bradley

    Very good logic and point on that second sentence.
