    imagine a scenario where floyd walked away from the fight over the 10 mil(whatever the figure was) per lb clause.....said "nope im not gonna do that....draining weight weakens me...its too much pressure to lose weight".......so the fighters move forward.......pac does 2.4 buy with someone.....floyd gets ko'd...comes back gets his feet under him again....but floyd owes like 40 mil in taxes or whatever.......floyd says "hey lets fight for the fans for free"......then richard schaefer says "we want the manny fight someone call us please" on the same day he announces floyd/maidana....then goes into a tirade where he urges you to boycott pac/bradley.....

    would the *******s have symapthy for floyd? would the say manny pacquiao is ducking the fight? the correct answer is no they wouldnt....

    what floyd said in that fox sports interview is true.....he made a simple demand....one that should be easy....and they walked....at the best deal that could have been struck...when the fans were clamoring for it ....at a fever pitch...they turned around and fought clottey(which was the plan the whole time)......now manny says he wants it....yet really has done nothing to go forward with it......floyd doesnt need them....hes doing more than great without them.....manny aint doin anything real to make a fight now more than he was doin 5 years ago.....talk about dummy...guy walked away from 50/50 when that thing was doing high 2's to possible 3 mil in buys.....doesnt get any more simple than that

    give it a rest. unless you're a fanboy desperate to pretend the other party is solely responsible for the fight not happening, it's obvious both are to blame.

    Let Floyd snr say I don't know what my son was drinking in those shakes, these dudes would be creaming in their pants and foaming at the mouths.
