He was real willing when he refuses the test the first time around. There has been zero evidence that any contract was ever seriously discussed this time around.
Fight ain't ever gonna happen. I think Manny coming back is Arum's pipe dream in the first place. Once he gets into his term he may realize he can't do both. Floyd is hoping that Marg can do damage and Manny will be a part timer and distracted and then MAYBE he will take the fight if both of those play out. If Manny takes too much damage from Margo he will certainly stick to politics. Even if he gets by Margo without too much effort, his boxing legacy is secure and his political future depends on that. Losing to Floyd might get him voted out of office at this point.
Zero evidence other than people on both sides of the negotiation acknowledging that parties were close to an agreement?
I don't know if yal realize, but Mexican's really love their boxing. It hurts me as a Mexican American, but if Mexican's think their boy has the slightest shot, no matter who he is, they're watching. Against the Mexican assassin, they're watching. Floyd knows better than anyone the Mexican\Mexican American boxing fan brings it in...:deal
I got breaking news from an inside source in Floyd's camp that Ellerbe is drying Floyd's balls. True story.
That's encouraging news if there's any truth to it. Problem is, myself, like everyone else here has grown very impatient with all this drama. I just hope if it does happen both fighters will still look prime by next May.
It doesn't seem far fetched at all. I've been saying it many times - Floyd's next opponent will likely be Pac. In 09 Floyd fought JMM, in '10 it was Mosley. If the pattern continues, Floyd will fight Pac in '11. Seems like his plan is to be involved in 1 mega fight per year. I don't think he's hiding from any of the major players per se. He just wants to have a ton of time to recuperate so he can be 100% prepared for whomever he's fighting. **** on him all you want for working only once a year. But at least when he does work, he lights up the PPV numbers. If you're a true fan of the sport you can't be made at that.
