    if he's going to handpick a nohoper like Mhatton or Paulie Malignaggio.

    HBO shluld say they are in costcutting mode and offer floyd what he deserves for screwing the sport --- peanuts. where else can floyd go? showitme has a small budget. floyd has no leverage at all now. he's not a draw and everyone knows he's the one who backed out of the Super bowl of boxing.

    HBO should use the old squeeze play on mayweather here and force him to fight Pac by only offering him $100,000 for his next garbage fight vs. hatton or paulie.

    Pac still hasn'[t signed the Clottye deal yet. so the door is ajar

    Floyd better not fight Hatton or Malignaggi in his next fight, he would look really bad considering Pacquiao is fighting Clottey

    i actually dont have an issue with a malignaggi fight, could be worse, much much worse, it could actually be entertaining

    In my opinion he would still be overpaid.

    no hbo should tell the pac and mayweather camps that they wont accept any fight for either of them unless its against each other then the fight would get made

    its like people in this biz are ****ing brain dead the majority of money in boxing comes from tv networks therefore they hav the power how cant they see this ?

    pac and his team are no longer in control really..sure, they can go fight clottey for a lil bit of money and make it seem like they not trippin...in reality though they have been exposed with weak stories, flawed arguments, and have been claimed by a mediator to have made "false allegations"...floyd's deal is on the table so they should take it or leave it...

    But all in all ur right...hbo should try and do whatever "they can do" to make the fight since the 2 parties can't agree...i will say floyd plays a small blame in this but u can easily see that most of it falls back on pacquiao

    How can a fight be entertaining when the result is a forgone conclusion? :blood

    Although, on the other hand, I quess it could be a little bit fun watching Paulie get beat up again... that never gets old. :hey

    Paulie is a decent light welterweight but at WW this fight would be a joke. And of course Floyd wouldn't fight at JWW.

    its like watching a movie that you already know how it ends,might be entertaining somehow,but it takes the suspense away,and you are sure that no matter how many times you watch it,it ends the same way,anyways,people dont like paulie,i do,well i dont really care,but he really deserves little bit of money so it makes out for the first juan diaz fight...remember,that its just my opinion!

    Pacquiao alone is the one to blame for this fight being off. At first i was angered by team Mayweathers speculative acqusations. But if he is so damned intent on not taking the test randomly, that can only lead to one logical explanation. I wouldnt be surprised if Clottey beats Pacquiao, clottey is a big welterweight and all the PEDs in the world cant make up for the fact that pacquiao is a much smaller man. This is a major blow to boxing fans world wide. **** YOU MANNY, i am no longer your fan.

    Why Pac is to be blamed now? Boxing was doing very well when Floyd retired. He came back and what happened? He ruined Pac and the sport of boxing just because of his cowardice.

    Worrying about how much money the next man makes is really what females do.
