    No man, Nonaire is too dangerous, he got power and at 154 he'd be a beast. Plus he ain't undefeated.

    What about Ivan Calderon? Catch weight at 142lbs, but Mayweather can weigh in at 156 if he wants to

    Holy crap, do you guys understand anything about negotiations in boxing? Both sides always start with unreasonable demands and then meet somewhere where both guys think they're getting the better end of the deal.

    Where do you get that the fight will not happen?

    great fights with fraud never happen, he always avoids them to handpick faded seniors like Baldomir and Marquez. or hide in phony retirement.

    If both really think they can win it then why don't they just put 60-40 to the winner. In their eyes they will be walking away with 60% for sure.

    Nice idea but judges get bought and a split decision would not suit Mayweather ie Mr Arum

    thats why team pacquiao is quiet, they'll let him talk his ****. and when the pressure starts to calm down and the possibility is becoming impossible then they will stand and do their negotiation. that way they can negotiate a take it or leave it deal.

    It can't be built up any further than it is. Pac already beat the very popular near top dog at WW (cotto). The whole world is buzzing about pac right now. FMJ looked good and beat a pac nemesis. Who else is there for these guys to fight to make it more attractive?? FMJ don't like risks and ain't gonna fight a moseley or a top WW in the interim and i don't think Pac can generate more interest beating/fighting anyone else than he's done now.

    The time is now and if FMJ prices his way out, than he's as yellow as a lot of people say because this would be The MONEY fight

    It won't be as big of a deal as people make it out to be even with a 50-50 split PBF will make more money than the has for any other fight. I'm guessing that the combined purse with PPV dollars will be atleast 75-80 mil each fighter will bet atleast 30 mil plus. This fight will be made don't lose sleep over it.

    Anyone who says this Pac doesn't need PBF **** doesn't want to see Pac-PBF because they know that PBF is a stylistic nightmare for him. Why don't you just say that instead of the bull**** you just posted.:deal

    Let's see here:

    Mayweather outsold Pacquiao against:

    DLH
    Hatton
    JMM

    he also fought them at their weight class did not make ridiculous 'catch weight' demands like Pacquiao and his people did.

    Now why does Manny deserve purse parity with Mayweather? He does not. I suspect it will be a 50/50 split but Pacquiao deserves no more than that.

    This fight also has to be at 147 not some stupid catch weight.
