    the reason why Floyd doesnt want to fight Pac is simple, he is a pressure fighter AND a power punching southpaw

    Floyd has trouble against constant pressure Jose Luis Castillo, DLH, Ricky Hatton (Hatton was doing well for the first 5-6 rounds, but Floyd's big boy body was too much for him). A prime Judah gave him trouble because he was a lefty and had power.

    Now all those aforementioned guys brought the heat to Floyd, and it gave him trouble, but those caliber fighters are nothing like Manny Pacquiao- he is the complete package that Floyd fears, Roger Mayweather fears, Crackhead Sr. fears.

    Pac has power in both hands, excellent stamina, and is an accurate puncher unlike JLC and ODLH.

    The reason is plain and simple, even the dumbest fans can figure it out.

    I agree, Singapore barely has 65mil to invest in their damn country let alone Floyd Mayweather & the fight will be 50/50 so they would also have to pay Manny 65mil & I dont see it

    Floyd won those fights. Jmm gave pac trouble and em beat him. Floyd is better than both. I don't want to go back and forth on Floyd being scared or not wanting to fight pac. We'll be doing this all day.

    That offer could be legit, boxing is not a popular sport there but they could be using that fight to bring in more money via gambling/betting. Its a win-win situation, supposing they expect to earn more than a 100 mil.

    If Pac agrees to take the test maybe Floyd wouldn't seek the 100mill.

    Could be true man, Singapore is one of the richest countries in the world. You really have to think why would a country with no interest in boxing would offer such a thing and it only points to one thing ---> $:D

    Singapore is one of the richest asian countries. Money wise, it's not far fetched.

    As far as venue, it'll probably not be held in Singapore. I mean the Manila Ocean Park giant aquarium and hotel is in the Philippines, but Singaporean owned.

    If a fight happens, they'll probably have it in Macau (one of asia's gambling capitals) or some other centrally located metropolis.
