[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ku4jfLKD0Mg[/ame] He said this on camera. Its before he fought Margarito. To bad Michael Koncz said something different on 24/7. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NKwuyCU6N8[/ame] If Koncz is lying then Manny should have said something but he didn't. To be fair, I personally blame everyone for this fight not happening including Floyd Mayweather Jr.
whether its 7 days or it wasnt 7 days, it a ***** move on Floyd part to reject that. 7 days is nothing . If he really wanted the fight he wouldn't refuse 50 mill over a 7 day cutoff. It's mean nothing .
True but you must also say the same thing about Manny for refusing the 14 days as well in the first negotiations. Do you agree with that?
Do you guys believe this is actually about PED suspicions?? I'm of the opinion it's more about mental games during negotiating... seing who can get the other to play by their rules. Conceeding on rules is like admitting defeat in the first stage of the battle.
I think its really bad that a smokescreen like that has been taken so far that people actually start accusing great boxers to discredit their accomplishments first pacquiao now hopkins, it really sucks. It was all more fun before the whole floyd/pac drama started a few years ago.
If Mayweather thinks Manny is cheating then he has every right to ask for additional testing. Manny has every right to refuse it as well. Tyson asked Holyfield for additional testing and they fought. They are all at fault for this ****. I personally would have been happy that Team Mayweather thought that I was cheating and would have done the testing and beat the **** out of Floyd. Gave him a rematch with testing again, then beat his ass. Manny is not me though. What gave this **** is fire was Team Pacquiao. Manny maybe 10% of it and his team 90%. You have to admit they did back pedal and lie a lot in this entire soap opera. Its like Arum, Koncz, Pacquiao and Roach could never get on the same page.
Its true, it would be better if one person spoke for pac or he did it himself, this way its too confusing. I guess this fight is destined to never happen like bowe vs lewis. I personally could care less about all the talk and drama thats involved with this fight, I just want to see them fight, allthough its damage control at this point and when it eventually might get made there will be less meaning to it then there was in 2009/2010.
Floyd and Manny should sit down like ****ing men in a room together and talk. Do not let Roger or Roach in that room. Arum doesn't need to be in that room either. Let Mayweather, Pacquioa, Koncz and Haymon sit down like men and come to an agreement. If they really want it they would do it. Yes Floyd could have taking the 7 days and Manny could have taking the 14 days as well. We the fans are the ones who are getting **** on by both parties involved. I don't know about any of you but I sit in my home office working and on ESB ****ing around with you all. I love boxing. We all ***** back and forth daily and for what? It can't be healthy. People paid over 60 bucks to watch Mosley vs Pacquiao and Manny made millions while everyone on here waste time with the two of them including me. **** I could be out doing more out reach or something. This is the last day I talk about these two mother****ers until they agree to fight.
Harold Johnson existed. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XE8xqtIkXsk[/ame] See, there are fighters that have been, are and will be that aren't related to these two. Honestly, there are.
tbh they both come across as women atm neither is willing to get on camera and hype the fight or directly call the other out so **** them both
The party that shows desperation should be ready to receive a lower percentage of the purse. That's why I think Koncz don't want Manny to agree to the testing.
pac and his team probably feels they don't need mayweather when they can also earn huge amounts and their stock would rise as long as they keep on winning against lesser fighters. Pac and floyd's opponents ever since they moved up to 147 has been about making money. All their opponents are big name, baldo was too at that point since he was the lineal champ. It doesn't matter if they're shot or presume tune ups as long as they are big names they fight them. It is whats killing boxing when guys go on the very top and they earn 8 figures per fight. No fighter would want to lose such status
