    mebbe he reads ESB forum threads and got tired of reading about the ludicrous "African-AMERICAN" conspiracy theories hahahaha

    IDK - almost sounds like a slick manipulative move to get an upperhand vs Mayweather and pressure him to settle a fight w/ Arum on his terms...

    No one wants to deliver the offer to Floyd. They are all afraid of getting poked.

    These are the Top3 fights for Pacquiao IMO

    #1 Floyd Mayweather (settle P4P contention for the past 3yrs)
    #2 Juan Manuel Marquez (Pac's BEST opponent to date, draw & split, a rubberband match waiting in the wings)
    #3 Sugar Shane Mosley (last fighter who CRUSHED Margarito - this is a sensible, public route and a very competitive opponent) Pit both fighters who's whipped Margarito recently and see who comes on top....

    From what I can tell, it was blacks that were harping on Pacquiao not fighting African-Americans. i.e., Nate Campbell.

    I'd rather he fight Paul Williams if it has to be an African American not named Floyd Mayweather. But I don't really mind the Mosley fight, considering the other guys Arum mentioned.

    Shane's the only notable name left at welter (outside Mayweather) Pac doesn't have on his resume. It's not like any of the other options will add more to his legacy or pose any more of a threat.

    If Team Pac are looking to maintain their chances of 50-50 against Mayweather, Mosley makes the most sense. I'm thinking this is the fight they are leaning towards if Mayweather doesn't find the urge to fight again any time soon.

    Wouldnt mind seeing him beat Earthquake Boy from pillar to post and end the hype that surrounds him once and for all.

    Earthquake Boy is one of Mayweather's bitches and a Haymon puppet he will probably make the same demands that Valeroweather made and kill the fight.
