    Floyd seems to not get much ridicule for demanding Pacquiao to leave Arum (at least Stephen A of ESPN doesn't think so), would the same be for Pacquiao if he demanded Floyd to leave Ellerbe or Haymon?

    Please no Floyd and Ellerbe jokes

    Floyd or no Floyd, Pac should leave Arum.

    Taking Floyd completely out of the equation, nearly all the best LWW/WW's fight with Golden boy/Showtime/Al Haymon

    Same logic applies to floyd. Sign on golden boy promotion to get a fight with floyd.

    Who are the "best" LWW/WW's-Thurman, Alexander, Paulie, Berto? Berto can't even get passed JSK, Bradley already made Devon cry, Pauline :rofl, and Keith would be nice but could end up being proven to be only a hype job.

    You're right, he should rematch a 42 year old Marquez for the 20th time, and Provodnikov and...and....ummm....Marquez for a 21st time.

    i dont see anyone left for pac and floyd at 147 with both promo disputes, unless mayweather goes to 154 again...pac is out of any 147, next step is alvarado's win or lose against marquez that i see.. i dont see a pac vs marquez 5 if marquez wins.

    Provodnikov, Mikey Garcia next year, potentially Cotto for the MW belt if Cotto wins against Martinez. Inc JMM that's 4 fights, 2 fights a year well its time to retire.

    How so? I bring it up since seeing how actual sports credential guys are fine with Floyd saying the fight can happen if Pacquiao leaves Arum. So I'm simply asking how things would play out if Floyd never made this excuse, I mean demand, and if Pacquiao was the one who said they can fight if Floyd left Ellerbe or Haymon. What's so hard to understand? Stephen A has no problem riding Pacquiao when he's on the show but the moment he isn't there, he's down with whatever Floyd has to say

    Hype is pegging the hasbeen featherweights as top Welterweights

    Keith One Time Thurman, falttens Pacman, Bradley, JMM...gives Mayweather his first L...Thats why he will not be allowed to face the mentioned hype jobs...who once were great at a much lower weight

    Possibly, but at the same time he could be proven just another Berto/Broner type hype job. Keith ma dude but I'm also a realist. You're giving way too much to a guy who's best win is against JSK

    Really? you think Porter, Guererro, Broner,Maidana,Khan,Thurman, Mallignaggi, Danny Garcia, Matthyse, Alexander

    Would all be inferior fights to a 42 year old shop worn Marquez, and Provodnikov?
