    The fans want to see PAC vs Floyd but Bob doesn't control who Floyd chooses to fight.

    Just rewind about 3 years... The perception were Floyd's Ducking Margarito and Cotto!!! Mentioned Pac against Cotto and Cheato then and these same guys said Pac will be Murdered and no Chance at all.

    Look now at 2010??? Floyd's still ducking Cotto and Cheato and add Pac to it!! While Cheato and Cotto will be just a Punching Bag for Pac!!

    Floyd consistent being a Duck!!! While Pac consistently Amazing!!!

    Keeping fights in-house is all too common since it maximizes the promoter's profit.

    Which sucks in cases like this. We've already seen Cotto get dismantled, and Margo might be 5th on a list of who Pac should fight, if we're being generous. I'd love to see Pac take out one of the young guns at 140, Williams, or Berto instead, but since they're not Top Rank, good luck on that.

    PAUL WILLIAMS!!!! But I doubt that is gonna happen. Marg and Cotto are still very much fan freidnly fights. Honestlty there are few who offer any REAL challenge to manny outside of Floyd or PW.

    Sucka please. To fight Pac you need to get KTFO, have a busted corner, weight drained, or a combination of all three!

    -- ODLH - Busted corner, weight drained, beaten by FMJ
    -- Hatton - Busted corner, KTFO by Mayweather
    -- Cotto - Busted corner, weight drained, KTFO
    -- Clottey - Busted corner, Manny hired his main sparring partner?!?
    -- Margarito - Busted corner, cheated, KTFO, a 154 pounder (WW fight?)

    Keep the lie alive! :good

    Manny wants to fight Floyd but it seems Money is not interested in boxing right now.

    Margo fight is at 154 for Pac's 8th weight class. That's the selling point.

    No he doesn't. Manny can't beat that drug test so he has Uncle Bob put on soap operas for *******s who lap it up like mother's milk.

    If Manny wanted to fight? Really fight? Take that test and get whipped like the rest. :deal

    Floyd has spoken. He is not rushing into anything and not thinking about boxing right now. He's enjoying his vacation.

    Is Floyd lying?
