    ughhh, come on Leon! Quit trying to compare PBF to Manny to smoothe over what he's done. I know, i know, Manny is this, that, and the other TOO. But exactly what does THAT got to do with the current issue? Absolutely ****ing nothing but a distraction and misdirecting copout. *****s would have others thinking that Floyd did this cuz Manny is already just as bad or worse....

    Threadwise, i dont think Mayweather's legal problems and antics will affect a fight to happen, if the two wants it to happen. Thats the biggest stumbling block. If anything, PBF's antics become a liability and discredits his potential "crowd pull" in the opposing promoter's eyes. I will guarantee Bob Arum will use it against him for leverage....

    it is true that pac is bob arum's *****, and he'll have to do whatever his pimp says. No way pac can have his own opinion right?

    What are you talking about? Floyd is the biggest payday for anyone in boxing. Why would emmanuel not want to get paid?

    bob ayrum can say whatever the hell he wants. Everyone knows boxing loves the bad guy. Mike Tyson actually became bigger after he was released from jail.

    Why are u lying?

    As I remember it, FMJ compromised from zero days to 14. Pac started at 0 days(confirmed by Roach "OSDT. no problem". Then moved to 3, 5, 30, then to 24 once they got caught lying. So FMJ agreed to meet in the middle and PAC decided not to do it. They even got caught lying about the 14 days. PAC pulled out of the negotiations and had the Clottey fight set within the week. So, tell me how did FMJ duck? Pac walked away from negotiations, not FMJ. FMJ made a reasonable compromise Pac did not!

    Give FMJ a payday? Last I checked, he was the cash cow, not Pac. Floyd doesn't need to "get his reputation back", he is the villian, so, the only thing that his issues of late does, is make the fight even bigger. Pac has shown his greed and that his "I dont fight the people and God" stance is a load of horse sh*t, so he will be taking the fight.

    By the way, Pac and team CERTAINLY haven't done a thing to smear floyd repeatedly....right? :patsch

    Says who? You??

    Manny also said his mommy would only allow him one more fight. Do u believe everything Manny says?

    This is a joke of a fight, at a catchweight, against a guy who looked awful in his last fight and was KO'd in the one b4 that (against the old man Pac wouldn't fight). Not to mention he was caught cheating. Neither fighter even deserves to fight for the belt at 154, so if this enhances his legacy, than shame on boxing.

    Of course Pacquiao will still fight him. He's fighting a ****ing disgraced fighter who loaded his damned gloves.

    Besides, it doesn't matter what Pac wants, it's Mayweather who doesn't have the 'urge' to fight him.

    Because he doesn't need Mayweather anymore and you know this fact. Pacquiao can decide after Margarito that he wants to call it quits, he's fine with it. He's at peace with that decision. He's already getting paid as a congressman in the philippines and with all of his businesses he established over there. Pac has also achieved what he wanted in boxing a long time ago and then some. He doesn't need Floyd in this point of his career.

    As a boxing fan YES I WANT TO SEE PACQUIAO DESTROY MAYWEATHER but at this point in their careers, Floyd needs Pacquiao more.

    If arum wanted to be a ***** to Floyd, Arum will arrange another in house fight for Pacquiao. That's another money for Pac and arum. Floyd can fight somebody else. See how easy that is? Pac doesn't need Floyd.

    You seem to be saying it as if Pacquiao has a choice in the matter. Bob Arum and Team Pacquiao are not going to leave this fight up in the air to take the high moral ground. This fight would represent Manny's biggest payday and he's supposed to leave it because Floyd said some mean things about him?

    Its clear that you don't like Floyd and any misfortune he has even if its outside the ring, you treat it like personal victory or something. Fine.

    But Pacquiao would be cutting off his nose to spite his face if this doesn't happen. And considering Mayweather has out earned Pacquaio in both common and similar opponents its obvious that he can get another big fight and still make money. This is not a case of Floyd needing Pac or Pac needing Floyd. They both need each other.

    If that doesn't happen then; Floyd is still the bigger draw, plain and simple. He is in no way shape or form "desperate"

    You're delusional if you think emmanuel doesn't want to go out with a fat AZZ payday.
