    I don't know if anyone else has had this thought but i can't stand the idea of

    the two best fighters in the world negotiating their way out of a showdown.

    They may go on to fight other quality opposition but any other fighter is a step down.

    I don't care who you believe is right and whose wrong all i know is i will not

    spend a dime on a fight featuring either of them until they fight each other!

    Whose with me!

    Go ahead with your boycott. Pac/Clottey at Dallas stadium is going to be centerstage for boxing

    It depends on whom they are fighting next. I'm disappointed as hell the fight appears to be off (I think they'll get back to negotiations for a fall fight), but we'll see whom they fight next.

    If Pacquiao fights Clottey next, then I'll still probably tune in, as I think Clottey is a fairly risky fight.

    If Mayweather fights the Berto-Mosley winner, I'll watch it. If he fights Malignaggi or Hatton, I sure as hell won't watch it, and probably convert over to a Mayweather "hater", or "disliker".

    I support any boycott 200%. I'm absolutely going to boycott both fighters.

    I won't buy anything from Pac fighting a guy in the Top Rank camp. He is only doing so to avoid testing.

    Mayweather just has to fight Collazo or the winner of Berto/Mosely. I won't buy M. Hatton, but if it takes place in England I will respect it for what it is. A bone to his English constituency and the Hatton family. Hattons get that money! He would just thrash Pauly so I don't' want to see that either.

    I'm glad it's off, Floyd doesn't deserve the pay day. The random blood testing is BS and they tried to bush league their way through negotiations. I'm glad Pacquiao didn't back down to these ***s.

    seriously its easy to say this now but if Pac steps in against Clottey or Bradley you know damn well thats all anyone will be talking about.

    I'm 100% confident that at some point the fight will happen. I wasn't ever really sold on the fight coming together as early as March 13 anyways so I intend on remaining the boxing fan that I am and watch all the fights.

    hmm says . . .

    Dallas Stadium is huuuuuuuge.. been there myself... I don't think the fight will be sold out but I'll be surprised if it does... Should just keep this fight in vegas which will probably happen. Clottey isn't too much of a draw..

    Anyways, back on the topic, I boycotted PBF after Hatton/DLH.... Pac can take my money. I'm entertained...
