    Golden Boy knows it, Oscar knows it, Shaeffer knows it. Arum knows it. The only ones who don't know it are floyd's blinded fool fans.

    After Nov. 14 it will be known by all though.

    I'm confused as well, he seems to not want to fight any of them but who else is there? They're also the biggest money fights. I'm not going to give Mayweather another thought until he fights someone that could actually pose a threat.

    He doesnt name any potential opponents whatsoever, as it may affect his negotiating power down the line. He also needs to wait an see what happens on the 14th, aswell as other fights involving top guys in the next few months. It's not that ****ing difficult to understand.

    If he doesn't fight one of Mosley, Cotto or Pac before he retires, i'll bite one of my testicles off.

    Mayweather is in it for big paydays at this point. He ain't fighting for less than $10M and that narrows down the possibilities.

    Assuming Pac wins, I think Floyd ends up fighting Mosley.

    And its not that I think Floyd is scared of facing Pac. I just don't think they are going to ever agree to a purse split. If Floyd-JMM had done around 500,000 buys and similar to what Pac-JMM 2 did, I think they would have eventually agreed to a 50-50 split of purses.

    But, now that Floyd did a million buys with JMM and more than doubled what Pac-JMM 2 did, there is no way he is taking less than 60% of the purse to make the fight. And there is no way Pac is going to go for that. We've already seen him play hardball with Oscar and Hatton until he got his way. But, Floyd ain't gonna budge.

    While I think the talk from Arum about Pac-JMM 3 in Dallas is somewhat crap. There is no way it is happening in Dallas. Arum floats that and Macau once a year, I do think they believe that a JMM fight is lower risk than it has been. They will make JMM fight in the 140's again just like he did with Floyd and put him at a disadvantage again. And it also gives Pac a chance to regain some bargaining power if he can up his PPV buys closer to the 1 million that Floyd did.

    You don't know it you ignorant mother****er and obvious alias. Quit coming back to the forum and spreading bull****. No one knows what his plans are so quit pretending like you do.

    I look at him not fighting these guys as if Leonard refused to fight duran hearns or hagler. Who would Leonard be right now? A flashy should-have-been.

    I can see a Floyd vs Mosley fight coming up, Arum and Floyd will make it difficult to set up the Cotto/Pac fight and Mayweather has been criticised all over the place about fighting someone his own size since the Marquez fight.

    Well, BT is reporting that if Salita beats Khan, then that is PBF next fight.
