    Lighten up? Mayweather needs to toughen up. I doubt this happens b/c it won't sell anything and Mayweather will get even less in the fight split. He's like the kid that stays in school all day to avoid the playground bully.

    Wow, So Floyds confidence must really be down after Pacs win over Cotto.

    Various sources including Roach said that Pacquiao will take a little break from boxing. If Pacquiao does not want to take a break from boxing, he will fight Mayweather in March or April, but that's most likely not the scenario. 7 to 8 months is just my guess.

    Freddie Roach said the Pacquiao vs Mayweather will happen in either May or June.

    Wow Floyd needs a tune up fight for somebody that his dad says can't fight worth a ****? If Pacman is not that good, why does he need to have a tune up fight?

    Said Ouali would be good prepartion for Mayweather. He's a southpaw, hits pretty hard, and has a decent KO ratio

    The Marquez fight was easy enough to be considered a tune-up and Mayweather has been inactive for a long time, I don't see wny he needs a tune-up.

    If anyone needs a tune-up then it's most definitely Pacquiao, look at his last FOUR fights.

    Diaz - Despite being easy he was a new weight fight for Pac.

    DLH - Of course we all remember the "DLH KO1" predictions.

    Hatton - Very tough opponent and a fight everyone expected to possibly be Pac's most difficult fight and a 50/50 fight. I know Pac was picked by most to win but seriously, did ANYONE expect it to end the way it did?

    Cotto - A fight considered "crossing the line" for Pacman with the majority picking Cotto comfortably, a history making fight for Pacquiao.

    And now they're the ones asking for Mayweather...

    "If Pacquiao wants to fight me, all he has to do is step up to the plate and be his own man. If he can do that, it's on.." - Floyd Mayweather.

    "For the record, I want to fight Mayweather" - Manny Pacquiao

    "By the way, I need another tune-up fight" - Floyd Mayweather

    :lol:

    Floyd and his family can deny that Pacuqiao isn't a threat to Floyd, but fight fans know that Pacquiao is VERY capable of beating Floyd and deep down Floyd knows this too.

    After Pac beat Hatton, Roach tried to get Void to fight Pac, but Void refused to do such. Void refused to fight Pac, Cotto, Margarito, Mosely, etc.

    Isn't it that floyds team said that pac will be an easy fight for them. Why need a tune-up?

    If floyd will choose to have a tune up. I hope pac fights the winner of shane-berto then retire for good.

    He doesn't need to wait for floyd.
