    Mayweather is the face of boxing. People love to watch him fight, whether they pay to see him win or to see if he gets knocked out.

    A guy who represents boxing at at time when boxing is getting fierce competition from another sport, should be willing to step it up for the fans who he LIED to, and fight the guy the WORLD WANTS TO SEE HIM FIGHT.

    His antics are hurting boxing. He needs to step up and start negotiating for the fight. What he is doing right now is HIDING and that's a ***** MOVE.

    what antics? The guy just fought and doesn't want to fight again this year, so what's the problem?

    Next year he will want a fight, hopefully Pac will be available, but at the moment floyd ain't, to bad for pac, because pac had his chance in March and blew it, while Mosley took the chance pac rejected and got whooped for his troubles.

    If you want to blame anyone blame pac.

    Mayweather couldn't ruin boxing if he tried to.

    How am I gonna blame Pac for fighting someone else? You expect him to wait around forever?

    This is the fight people want to see. This is the fight people have been talking about. The Mosley fight was alright, but in reality, most people only accepted it because they knew that shortly after a fight with Pac would be inevitable.

    Why isn't Floyd ready? He talked all that ****, and now he's not ready?

    Let me ask you this.

    Let's flashback to the school yard, and say you're talkin all this **** about this guy and how you're gonna whup his ass.

    Now, when the time comes to fight and he's tracked your ass down, are you just gonna say, "hey, I'm not ready?"

    The world don't work like that.

    Mayweather is taking advantage of all the FANS. He said he would fight Pac, and now he's not.

    He's ruining boxing.

    No... Fans and opinions are ruining boxing ,if Mayweather and Pac never fought again boxing will find another star ,its just like pro baseball every year a new champion wins the world series.Some of you will die oneday and boxing will still be as enjoyable as ever.

    I seriously doubt he's hurting boxing..Despite what your opinion is, he's helping by keeping the sport in the mainstread...With all of the things that are being said about him through the media, he's keeping the sport in the spotlight...no matter what you guys say...He's doing the sport good in a way than harming it!

    So you're okay with him not fighting Pac?

    You just want him to appear on TMZ every once in a while, or maybe In Touch Magazine, so you can keep up with his daily life?

    That's cool.

    How can Arum be ruining boxing when Team Mayweather said there were NO NEGOTIATIONS?

    Like I said there are more boxers than may and pac. Arum is ruining it by puting his boxers to fight each other only and putting pac with cheato.
