    HAHA.. How am I hating? Your tiny little brain can't see what I am saying so I'll spell it out:

    1) I think KHAN is the tougher opponent
    2) I expect Floyd to pick him.
    3) I think he did this because he knew Khan would hit social media and create hype.

    but now you're going to say that I'm creating this so I can say he is ducking Khan right? And don't give me this "I have a life" crap. Everyone does. You post on these boards for the same reason I do... We both like boxing. It doesn't affect my life if he lies either so you really don't have a point there.

    It took you this long to figure out Floyd has no credibility?

    "Yes Manny, you're next!"

    … few weeks later…

    "I never said that, don't put words in my mouth!"

    LOL

    If true, then I commend you.

    However, that just means you were stupid from the beginning and still are.

    I mean that in the most respectable way possible via internet communication, too...

    He said that during the MGM arrivals for the Cotto fight.

    He couldn't help it that Manny lost his next fight, already scheduled, the very next month.

    That's just wrong.

    He said it during the press conference for the Ortiz fight, sometime in June/July 2011.

    OK maybe so. That doesn't make what I said any less correct.

    Perhaps he said it for both.

    And if he did say that for the Ortiz fight, he couldn't help that Manny had signed to face Marquez in their third fight before he even stepped in the ring to face Mosley. And then when he fought Marquez, a few months after Floyd beat Ortiz, the majority of watching fans scored it to Marquez... further complicating purse bid, etc. Even then, though, Mayweather expressed interest for the fight only to be responded to by Arum through the media that Manny's cut would keep him on the sideline for well over 6 months... and that a temporary stadium in Vegas needed to be set up for the fight and that that wasn't possible in the allotted 4-5 months.

    The point was Floyd backtracked on what he said. He lied about never saying "Yes Manny, You're next!".

    Then when people called him a liar, hypocrite, he said something like "Well, everybody is a hypocrite sometimes" LOL

    Don't believe everything Floyd says.

    I don't believe anything that anyone says.

    Especially a celebrity whose paychecks they bring home to their family are based around public perception.

    Actions speak...

    So I'm stupid for thinking Khan is a better opponent? I would say the same to you if you think Maidana is better.

    If you are saying I'm stupid for taking at face value that Floyd gave a choice between two sh*tty fighters and said he would fight whoever won the vote (AND who happens to have a bigger fanbase) then that doesn't make me stupid, it makes him pathetic. Like I said, it wasn't a "This guy says this, that guy says that" It was a simple poll that you'd have to literally want to destroy your own credibility to go against the result.

    And if you don't care or don't believe what fighters, trainers, writers say then what the hell are you doing on a boxing site? If you only cared about the fights then you wouldn't have responded to this thread... THAT would be stupid.

    So you don't care or believe what people say, yet you JUST used other peoples opinion on the Marquez fight to prove a point... OK then.

    You're talking about how if he lies about the poll you'll have no faith in what he says. :lol:. And if he doesn't fight Khan he's a liar. C'mon. Again, if you get caught up with everything fighters and promoters and trainers say you're just not that smart.

    Edit: And no, I don't think you created this to say he's ducking Khan. Although if you did say he is then you're even dumber than I thought. But lose trust in Mayweather if he fights Maidana over Khan, I'm sure he really cares. And the people on this board care so much if you have no faith in what Mayweather says.

    ok, I'll explain this part slower: What I meant by saying "how can you believe anything he says" was actually meant for the many nut huggers on this site who do believe every word one side says... i.e. Why the Floyd / Pac fight hasn't happened. If you are one of the many that think it's one sided, then never respond to a message I post again, because it's pointless.

    Posts like this are proof positive of just how much this board has gone to sh1t.

    IT'S A BOXING DISCUSSION FORUM, YOU MORON. We talk about the sport, and who the #1 p4p fighter is going fight on here merits discussion. Don't like it? Go back to watching World Star vids.

    Really? 20 threads a day on PAC/MAY is talking boxing nowadays? Get a clue. There ain't much actual boxing talk left on this board. But hey, if talking polls gets your rocks off be my guest fanboy.
