    So arguably the best p4p fighter is fighting Mosley and the nr two guy is going to fight Spadfora.

    This is a tune -up fight against a undefeated southpaw, so I don't mind. Floyd, has a right to have a tune-up.

    If it was a guarantee tuneup for Pac I could deal with it for that fight to happen. If not then no id rather see Maidana or Berto/Ortiz winner, or Cotto if Arum would allow it.

    Pacquiao has done nothing but fight PBF leftovers (DLH, Hatton, Mosley) and he had an atrocious fight with Clottey.

    Let me make this clear when Mayweather and Pacquiao fight Pacquiao is getting knocked out.

    Spaddy being a southpaw is irrelevent. Are we supposed to believe Floyd needs a tune up for EVERY southpaw he faces?

    "Floyd faced Mitchell to prep for Judah!!" - :|
    So the best fighter needs to prepare for a southpaw every single time? I guess Baldomir or Erik Morales are better, they sure as hel didn't need a tune up to beat guys floyd needs to 'prep' for.

    Not to mention, if this is some sort of Prep for Pac, does JUST being a spouthpaw cut it with someone like Pac? I mean, Spaddy?

    This tune up, if finalized, is bull****. I would expect some Floyd fans to be upset, and more Floyd fanboys to justify angrily and vehemently.

    His last fight was a warm up too, no?

    That's what his fans said when he dragged a lightweight up to welter and ****ed him on the catchweight.

    It's just a tune up . . . .

    I doubt this will me made for a few simple reaons:
    1. The fight won't sell well. Low buys will hurt his stance of being superior to Pac in the PPV dept.
    2. He faced a LW just before Shane. Another walk down that alley will be frowned upon and hurt his rep even more, considering ALL the guys around his weight, and expecially considering his last few opponents.
    3. #1 again, won't sell.
