    Before his bank balance. :roll:

    He was FORCED to fight Canelo due to Showtime being clearly disappointed with the RG/Floyd numbers (something like in the 800k's I think?), and even then Floyd had to make Canelo come in no higher than 152 (bearing in mind that Floyd has already fought two people at 154 and never asked for a stipulation). :roll:

    Then he wants no part of Manny when Manny is tearing through everyone. Now Floyd tries too extend the olive branch now that Manny has been stopped and is fighting in a different country. :lol:

    Face it: Floyd N-E-V-E-R put his fans before his bank balance on his own accord.

    Sho MADE him take on Canelo. They seen straight through him with his cherry-picks. And even then Floyd couldn't make the fight without everything being tipped in his favour.

    If Cotto faces Canelo come May, and Khan and Manny face each other - Where does Floyd go? Maidana trilogy? RG Rematch? JMM Rematch? He'll duck Bradley, Thurman and anyone that isn't a slow-plodder.

    Face facts: Floyd just never gave the fans what they truly wanted. And you still worship him like disciples...

    How exactly does Pac fight for his fans? Is Algieri really for his fans, be honest now. Was Rios or a rematch with Bradley for his fans or Marques 4? No they were for himself and the 20 million Arum gives him per fight. Smart man in my eyes, he has a family to look after and bills to pay like everybody else.

    Im a big Floyd fan and i agree he doesnt fight for his fans and he never has, no matter how much he says he does. I genuinly dont think any fighters do. The Guerrero and Maidana fights were not so bad, they were far from great dont get me wrong. Floyd in his last fight really annoyed me, its getting very old watching him just do enough over and over again.

    I think the rematch with Maidana was great for fans as there is no way he will be allowed to do that again. People have stopped paying to see him just do enough. Pac fight is never going to happen, both sides dont want it. I think Floyd is going to have a serious sit down with showtime and will be forced into a real challenge. Only thing is, who? aside rom Pac and middleweights who is there.

    A lot of *****s are a big fan of Floyd's bank balance. Sometimes I think a couple rather see him fight Eric Crumble for $60M as they see him fight the #1WW contender for 20M.

    Stfu idiot. You clearly know nothing about the game or boxing at all.

    You're obviously on an agenda and everything you just said is false. :deal

    Canelo wanted 150. :hi:

    Pac avoided Floyd to no end. Who ran in 2009 when it was 50-50? Who keeps avoiding testing? :good

    That he on his own accord has NEVER gave the fans what they wanted to see.

    Showtime MADE him face Canelo after their first fight of the deal did weak numbers. You think floyd would have faced him given his own choice? Haha. Not a chance.

    Ducked Martinez.

    Didn't want any piece of Pac.

    Instead we get 'what the fans want' - i.e.: RG, JMM, Ortiz!

    How long can someone pull the wool over your eyes for?

    :lol: LOL!
    Stop whining! You soaking your keyboard and may have to replace it with a water proof one.
    Your suggestion that Mayweather should fight for fans and not his financial well being is lame, and quite dumb. :yep
