    Honestly I respected Sergio until recently, snapping at the heels of Mayweather? What planet is he on? He just fought Chavez who weighes 180lbs and is calling out a small man like Mayweather? Fight Canelo, Ward, GGG someone of your own size you argentine roadsweeper :lol:

    Both times the fight failed was due to Pac's cowardness.

    Again....if he wants the fight why won't he campaign at 154 where there is still more money for him even without Floyd and there is better Competition...i dont understand him.

    Mayweather only fights low risk opponents.

    They made that request because even if Mayweather fails to make weight, they will still go on with the fight though want to get paid well for it. It's very simple and clear really, their offer was "Make weight or pay us", they didn't ask Mayweather to go through a new set of rules for this one fight. It's not like Mayweather wasn't going to make the weight anyway. In a fight of this magnitude, if Mayweather failed to make weight, Pacquiao would still be under insane pressure for going on with the fight. In the end, this is a fight the entire world will tune in for.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but the venue was eventually settled and I believe they were going for the MGM. The venue wasn't the reason the fight canceled, it was Mayweather demanding the other side to follow his rules and regulations.

    Sergio is lucky he's just a little bit bigger, had he been a tad smaller Floyd would tap that ass. No health issue at all, willing to die in the ring type of fight :lol:.
