Arum: "Neither Roach Nor I Have Talked To Manny Once During This Whole Period"

Manny just chickened out of the whole thing, I mean why wouldn't he have consulted his promoter or his trainer???
He just didnt want the fight...........

 

I think it sort of the same feeling pbf had after fighting oscar. He received a career high never to be rivalled again payday and when he fought hatton he made less. Same with Pac, he wont make the kind of money he made fighting oscar, by fighting hatton. Also i think that if he fights hatton then people will inevitably draw comparisons between him and pbf, and it puts pressure on manny to go for the stoppage before the 10th round to beat pbf.

I do however think the fight will eventually take place as there is too much money in it not to. Maybe hatton vs diaz/marquez winner and pac fighting a geuine welter (theres been noise from cotto). I dont see who pac can fight to make the kind of money he wants from stepping into the ring again?
